WASHINGTON. Sept 2s. - Tax
revising legislation was put under

minority member Of the committee.
that sweeping and radical amend

Democrats and he added that IL the
sponsor for the manufacturers sales
tax would accept those armaments.
seriO..s consideration would be given
to such a sales tax as a part Of the
Democratic scheme provided such
evs should prove necessary in order
to raise the needed revenue.
OBJ. &C ions to specific sections Of
the bill came from the Republicans,
as we'll as the Democratic side of the
chamber and Senator Lenroot. Of
Wisconsin, a Republican member Of
the agricultural bloc" proposed
amendments to the income surtax
provision under which existing rates
would be continued up to so per cent

an alternate proposal Of a so per
cent levy on incomes of from $780,
600 to 100000, and a so per cent
rate on those above 100000.

agreement TO accept uncontested

inal House measure. the Senate made
considerable progress on proposed
changes to some Of the administra-
tive features. None of the levy pro-
visions was passed upon. however,
