S2(lD,ODO,O(O TAX
CUT IS G. D. P. AIM
Senate Leaders Plan to off,
set Conceded Repeal of
Auto Impost.
BY She Associated Press.

BY She Associated Press,
Conceding repeal of the automobile
tax by the Senate finance committee
when il takes up rate schedules III the
House revenue bill Tuesday, Senate ad-
miniStration leaders planned yesterday
to offset this loss by less of cut in
the corporation levy than counted on to
keep within bounds of the Treasury
limitation of $200, 0,000,000.
Repeal of the 3 per cent automobile
tax was strongly opposed by Secretary
Mellon, but despite his plea to the COM
mittee, Chairman Smoot. leader of the
administration forces believed today
there had been sufficient defections in
the ranks of Republicans on the COM
mittee to defeat the Treasury on this
point,
The auto tax involves SOC. 100000. If
this loss is TO be offset Senator Smoot
indicated his belief that the Republican
group would favor a slash of only
per cent in the corporation tax to 1915
per cent rather than the / y per cent
cut previously agreed to. This would
lower the reduction SAL 100000.
Democrats meanwhile are standing
firm for their $500 100000 program.
which includes not only repeal of the
automobile tax. but reduction in the
NOA kstA SNANtA ANkN ~ dN ASdSl Al Der
cent as voted by the House, or even IL
per cent Senator Simmons of North
Carolina, ranking Democrat on the
committee. announced today he would
put his program before the committee
Tuesday.
The Republicans have li-to-9 ma
iority on the committee. however, and
are expected to stand together for
reduction pretty close TO the 5000. .00o.-
600 set by Mr. Mellon and endorsed by
President Coolidge This will throw the
real fight TO the floor of the Senate.
where the Republican majority on paper
is only one.
There were indications from Repub-
lican ranks that the committee would
vote TO increase exemptions on theater
admissions from IS cents to So. The
House voted to increase the exemption
TO 81 and this would mean an addition
al $4,000 900 cut beyond the House bill
The Democratic program calls for
repeal of this tax and the tax on club
dues as we'll as for the wiping out of
other wartime levieS on particular
business. The House has voted repeal of
the auto tax and if the Senate concurs.
that issue, at least. is settled.
