VIGOROUS FIGHT.
FACES WHOLE
MEASURE 4
Lower Chambers Backing of
Lazy Boost Seen Influenced
BY Veto Overriding
BY international News Service

The House will reject the 10
per cent super tax on incomes de-
scribed as "a tax upon a tax"-
which the Senate wrote into the
new 470-million-dollar revenue bill,
Democratic leaders predicted to-
day.
The 10 per cent super tax was
sponsored by Eenator Couzens
(R0 of Michigan, and was esti-
mated to draw between SIS and
rs million dollars year addition
ally from income tax payers. The
House will vote on Monday.
Vigorous opposition to the entire
measure is expected, because of
the heavy burdens placed on busi-
ness and other taxes affecting
virtually very person in the coun-
try.
Backed by Administration
The Administration was said
by leaders to have approved the
measure, including publicity of
income tax returns, higher income
and estate taxes, a capital stock
levy, the cocoanut oil tax, and
other revenue raising provisions.
House confereeS said the action
of Congress in overriding PreSi-
dent Roosevelt's veto of the Fed
eral pay restoration and veterans
provisions of the Independent
Offices bills largely influenced the
House to accept the Senate's
boosting the original bill to AIT
millions from 258 millions.
The publicity provision would
apply to corporations as well as
individuals. calling upon each tax
payer to file a separate statement,
under oath, with each return,
stating: /. Name and address; 2.
Total gross income; 3. Total de-
ductionS; 4. Net income; S. Total
credits for normal tax; and 6. Tax
payable. These statements would
be made public, subject to inspec-
ton by any citizen.
The Senate's estate taxes were
approved by the Senate and House
conferees. This schedule imposes
a super estate tax, ranging from
l per cent on the first $4,000 to
so per cent on estates in excess of
$10,000,000.
The gift tax rates will be three
fourthS of the estate tax rates. In
both instances, the conferees re-
stored a $4,000 exemption.
A number of minor excise taxes
were repealed. The Senate agreed
to the House repeal of the bank
check tax after next January.
The House agreed to the Senate's
repeal of taxes on soft drinks,
furS under $74, jewelry under $25,
and on candy.

Lyle is the Bronx filling station

certificate with which Bruno
Hauptmann paid for gasoline for

Lyle finally had to smuggle his
