PINK SLIP REPEAL
MAY Be DEFEATED
Determined Minority 0ppo-
sition May Prevent Vote
in Senate.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The determined opposition Of a
minority may prevent repeal Of the
pink slip" income tax publicity law
according to the private opinion OF
Democratic leaders.
Friends of the repeal, however, as
serted publicly they would continue to
push for action.
With opponents of the repeal pre-
pared to talk indefinitely, one ad-,
ministration leader said 1t would be
rather futile to call it up unless we
are prepared to give it more time than
its Importance deserves"
Another high-ranking Senator said
the repeal could be passed by two or
three to one if 1t ever reached a test
but he added significantly 1T may
never reach vote"
Both statements apparently repre-
sented recognition of the parliament
tary skill of Senator Norris, Re
publican, of Nebraska and other
friends of income tax publicity, who
are opposing the repeal resolution al
ready passed by the House.
In view OF the fight facing them,
Democratic leaders had made no plans
for calling the pink slip bill up.
Chairman Harrison of the Senate Fl
nance Committee. in charge of the
legislation, was indefinite about his
program, but said he would not ask
10 take up the question at any time
when it might interfere with vital
legislation.
Conceding powerful opposition to
the pink-slip repeal, Senator Rob.t-
son. Democratic leader, said he had
made no arrangement to call it up.
