ROOSEVELT REJECTS
TAX BILL BECAUSE
OF LOW REVENUES

WASHINGTON, May 81. (UP}
A new Democratic revolt threat
ened the senate finance commit
tee today after President Roose-
welt rejected q compromise on the
corporation tax bill because it
failed to produce sufficient reve-
nue..
Insurgent Democrats on the
committee indicated they would
"stand by our guns" in defense
of the compromise despite the
presidents insistence that the re-
vised measure was inadequate.
Mr.. Roosevelt pointed out at a
White House conference that the
yield of the compromise was
$500, 100000 short of his ST.
137,O0O,O00 recommendation, urg-
ing that it be increased and that
the bulk Of that increase be OBJ
tanned from corporations.
The conference, attended by
committee Democrats. Majority
Leader Joseph T. Robinson, D.,
Ark, and Secretary of Treasury
Henry Morgenthsu, Jr., broke up
shortly before midnight with the
almost-completed tax compromise
torn wide open again. The treas
ury was asked to submit new es'
Inmates on proposed revisions.
AS a result, the committee de-
layed this mornings scheduled
session until afternoon. The rebel
members weighed the extent to
which they might 60 in fighting
new plans to be proposed.
These plans, 1t was understood,
may include proposals to retain
the present 1917 to Is per cent
fiat tax on corporations and to
substitute for the proposed z per
cent tax on undivided profits a
graduated tax which would be
graduated to a higher scale more
in line with the widely-criticized
house bill.
