SENATE HAS ADOPTED

Strict Party Vote on Provisions-Pass
age Of Aet-The Corpora

Washington.-By a strict party vote
the senate has adopted all provisions
In the war revenue bill prescribing
tax rates for 1920, which democrats
advocate and republicans opposed.
Disposition of the controverted 1920
tax provisions, designed to raise about
$4,000. .OO0, 900, as compared with $6,-
OO0, 900 900 estimated for 1919, precip-
itated long and spirited debate, with
numerous partizan clashes.
Action was taken virtually on test
vote in disposing OF the provision re-
ducing the individual income normal
tax rate to per cent in 1920. On
motion by Senator McCumber OF North
Dakota, republican, to strike out this
section, 81 democrats voted to retain
it and 81 republicans were recorded
for its elimination.
Later all other 1920 provisions we're
adopted with perfunctory viva voce
votes.
Among the 1920 clauses thus ap
proved was the provision for reduc
ton in that year of the corporation
normal income tax rate from IL to
per cent. In similar manner the sen
ate adopted the 1920 war excess prof
its tax section, prescribing excess prof
it's ranging from 20 to 40 per cent, In
lieu of thoes from 20 to 60 per cen,
