now or later, indicated Friday they

passage-and democratic leaders
apparently were divided as to the
practicability of obtaining action
this session on q program which
includes such major proposals as
higher taxes on large incomes, both
individual and corporate, and heavy
levies on inheritances.
There was no immediate denial
OF a report that the president soon
would send a letter TO Chairman
