TAX ON INCOMES
 MAY BE RAISED TO HALT DEFICIT
House and Senate Leaders Disagree and Extra
 Session Is Possible

WASHINGTON, Nov. A. Not only will Congress at it's approach ing regular session next month be unable to continue the per cent reduction in income tax rates, al- lowed by the last Congress, but the federal lawmakers may be com pelled to increase the rates that were applicable before the per cent reduction went into effect.
 The l per cent reduction will be automatically discontinued unless the next session affirmatively con- tinues it.
 Increase Net Unlikely
 We are liable to have an in- crease, instead of a decrease, in the old rates, if we meet all the present demands on the Treasury, , said Representative Bertrant H. Shell, Republican of New York, chairman of the House Committee on Rules.
 MT. Shells statement was made while he was discussing the recent declaration of President Hoover that there would likely be treas ury deficit next June 30, the end of the fiscal year, but that he hoped Congress would be able to continue the 1 per cent income tax reduction MT Shell said he and other Republican leaders in the House would make every effort at the approaching short session of Congress to expedite the passage of the customary appropriation and supply bills, so there would be nc need of calling an extra session of the new Congress after March 4.
 Norris Tn Opposition
 But Senator George w. Norris, Progressive Republican of Nebraska, is interested in other measures be- sides appropriation bills, and he is not willing to sacrifice the legisla- ton desired by him just to avoid an extra session. He emphasized to- day that he intended to force to a vote the Muscle Shoals bill, the De- benture Plan for Farm Relief and ether measures that he has spon- sored, even if such insistence on his part should prevent enactment of the appropriation bills at the regu- lar short session and thus compel the President to call an extra ses- sion.
