BILL TO BE BEFORE
 SENATE TODAY
Debate on Measure to Raise More Than Six Billions in Taxes Next Year, Debated Coming Week
lRy Revlew Lensed Wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The war revenue bill, designed to raise slightly more than six billion dollars in taxes next year and about four billion dol lars ih 1920 will be presented to the senate tomorrow by Chairman Sim mons with a view to beginning de either next Monday or Tuesday.
 The majority report on the bill and also minority report from Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania will not be filed next week Senator PenrOse's report, it was said. will deal exclusive ly with opposition to the bills pro visions fixing taxes for 1920, to which the republicans vigorously object While these objections will be fully outlined to the senate in debate re- publican leaders disclaim any inten- ton to filibuster against the bill.
 Senator Simmons said tonight that no effort would be made to institute the plan of passing an emergency res olution for imposition of an so per cent tax on 1918 corporate war profits unless senate discussion should be so protracted as to threaten defeat Of the bill or of the treasury's plans for beginning tax collections early next year. He and Majority Leader Kitch in of the house are prepared. how ever, to propose the so per cent war profits tax if it should be deemed necessary.
 Chairman Simmons explained that the plan would be to initiate in the house a resolution amending the exist ing revenue law by providing for a flat tax of so per cent on corporations war profits made during 1918. based upon the pending bills exemptions and its pre-war standard. Its object, he said, would be to prevent loss oi revenues from 1919 war profits which might escape taxation if the pending bill should fail
 In final amendments to the bill to- day the finance committee changed the proposed 1 cent a pound postage zone for second-class mail from 200 to 150 miles. The 1-cent rate, under the final amendment would apply only within the first and second parcel post zones (15O miles) with a rate of IF cents beyond.
 Senator Lafollette of Wisconsin gave notice today that he would offer amendments to the bill in the senate. It was understood, he de- sires to impose heavier rates on war excess profits and urge increases in some of the individual surtaX rates
