politicians believe, the proposal
stands a chance Of passage.
The 80 per cent Collier beer-tax
bill passed by the house, now be-
fore the senate judiciary committee,
probably will be reported out
favorably in ten days
But then it must go to the
finance committee. whose chair
man, Senator Reed Smoot (Rep..
Utah), is a longtime advocate Of
the sales tax. Senator Smoot may
turn it into a sales tax bill, if such
a maneuver has any chance of sue
cess.
And its chances in such a case
undoubtedly would be augmented
by the fact that the house Demo-
Gratis concurrently will be attempt
ing to draft a huge revenue bill
along sales tax lines.
The independent Democrats and
progressive Republicans revolted
against the house leadership last
spring and rejected the general
sales tax, but the Democratic vic
tory IN November quoted some Of
the rebels within that party.
The progresSlveS strongly are OPP
posed to the general levy because
of its tendency to reduce purchas-
ing power of consumers-an effect
which has been interpreted widely
as further obstacle to economic
recovery.
Supporters of the general sales
tax favor it on the ground that it
would raise lot Of money, more or
less 'painlessly."
