new BILL

The new tax reduction bill today
carried 1 s11s,OOo,Ooo cut in corpora.
ton taxes, the greatest relief pro-
posed for American business In any
revenue measure drafted since the
war.
The sIaslles included an $50 900, 900
reduction in the regular corporation
tax rate, which was dropped from
I31k to 1914 per cent; 4 $4,000, 900
reduction through increase of ex-
emptions from $1,000 to $4,000, and
q $4,000, 900 saving through adop-
ton of q graduated scale of taxes
for small corporations.
The $4,000, 900 graduated scale
slash, applying to corporations with
incomes up to SIS. 900, was not APP
proved by the administration, and
was inserted in the bill only because
several stalwart Republican Senator'S
weer absent when the vote was

nsurgents-McMas and Norbeck
OF South Dakota-yoting with the
Democrats.
Expects Reversal
The Administration will make an
other effort to eliminate this item
from the bill. Senator Smoot (R.) OF
Utah, Republican finance leader, an
rlounced he expected the Senate
would reverse itself when the second
vote is taken.
This cut increased the total tax re-
duction carried in the bill too $227,-
600 900. just $4,000. 900 more than
the limit fixed by the Administra-
ton. 1t will be a 500 200. 900 short,
however. of the tax reduction figure
desired by the Democrats.
The graduated scale would begin
with a S per cent on corporation I'M
comes up to $1,000. with $4,000
exemption allowed. A per cent
tax would be levied on the portion
of incomes above $1,000 but below
$12, 900, and Q per cent on that above
$12 900 but. below SIS, 900. The nor.
nal 121a per cent rate would apply
to incomes above $4,000.
Democrats Defeated
with the single exception of this
scale, the Administration has con-
trolled all tax rates, through its al.
lance with the insurgent bloc. Two
insurgents bottled on that one vote,
CARRYING victory to the Democrats.
but the result may be reversed
later when the change is voted
upon again. Otherwise, the Demo
Gratis have been defeated on every
suggestion they made for reducing
taxes.
Only one major tax issue must be
decided and then the bill will be
ready for passage.
This will be the fixing of new
surtax rates. applying particularly
to the brackets between $4,000 and
$4,000. Both the Republicans and
Democrats have proposed a SIS ,00O,-
900 cut in these brackets but their
plans differ radically. The Demo
Gratis would give the larger share
of the relief to incomes below
$50, 900 while the Republican plan
scattered it clear up to 100000,
with the higher brackets getting a
larger reduction than in the Demo
cratic measure.
) Extensive debate was expected on
this item. with the probability that
final vote cannot be reached be-
fore tomorrow.
