REVENUE ISSUE
To WAIT NEW
CONGRESS
Democrats Split on Income
Tax Proposal But None
Will Admit 1t

Despite all the talk of balancing
the budget at this session of Con-
gress by drastic Federal econo-
mics and jacking up tax rates on
lower and intermediate incomes,
1t became increasingly unlikely
today that anything of the sort
can be accomplished.
Deny it as they will and do,
the fact is that the income tax
increases proposed in the now
famous conference between PreSl-
dent-elect Roosevelt and Demo
cratic congressional leaders have
split the Democrats into two war
ring factions.
Everybody disclaims parentage
Of the income tax proposals.
Governor Roosevelt has denied he
suggested them, and so has nearly
everybody else who sat in the con-
ference. The increases were
proposed" but the conferees be-
come hazy in response to queS-
tionS as to just who did the pro-
posing.
Proposal Seems Doomed
Speaker Garner, Senator Har-
rison of Mississippi and Senator
Byrnes of South Carolina all de-
clare their willingness to push the
income tax program "if neces-
Sary.'
There is, however, an under
current of opposition in the rank
and file so strong that it now
appears certain no such program
as raising the normal rates on
from 6 to 8 and from 8 to II
per cent on incomes in the
$2,O00-$8,000 class can possibly
be put through.
At the head of this opposition
is none other than Representa-
tive Henry T. Rainey of Illinois,
the Democratic floor leader, who
participated in the Roosevelt con-
ference. He disagrees sharply
with some of the other party
leaders that the proper way to
balance the budget is to bear
down still harder on the over
burdened income tax payer. He
said:
"The people just won't stand
for more taxes. II we impose
them we will invite revolution.
81 think the budget can be
balanced in other wayS-by a
tax ON beer and drastic
economy"
q Rainey predicted there will be
o special session of the new
Seventy-third Congress about
April IT," There certainly will
be special session, he said, if
President Hoover vetees the beer
bill, as is now generally antici-
pated.
