Washington, Nov. 17.-Disre-
garding the expressed wish of Pres
1dent Harding, the house today
voted, 201 to 173, to accept the SEN
ate amendment to the tax revision
bill fixing the maximum income
surtax rate at SO per cent on in
comes of 100000 or more.
Ninety-four republicans, most of
them from the middle and far west,
joined with the practically solid
democratic minority in supporting
the amendment. Announcement of
the result brought applause from
both sides with some democrats
cheering.
Three hours before the vote was
taken, the house listened to the
reading of letter from President
Harding to Chairman Fordney, OF
the ways and means committee.
suggesting that the house and SEN
ate compromise. The executive
said he still believed the original
house rate OF 32 per cent was
''nearer to a just levy and the more
promising one in returns to the
public treasury" but that in view
of the legislative situation he
thought 1t wholly desirable" that
there be a compromise at forty per
cent.
Immediately after 1t became
known that the president had writ
ten MIR. Fordney, spokesman Tor
the "insurgent" republicans, said
that the letter would not affect
the result.
They had claimed ninety-three
republican votes or one less than
was cast for the amendment.
