TAX PROGRAM

Final Attempt of Republi- cans to Change Meas
 ure Is Failure

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. The House Ways and Means Committee has reached a complete agreement on the proposed tax revision pro- gram after defeating the final Re- publican attempt to obtain com- plete repeal of the undistributed profits tax.
 Chairman Doughton said the only formality remaining was the in- troducing of the bill, perhaps next Tuesday and formally recommend ing the bill to the House.
 The measure will probably be brought on the floor next Thurs day, two days after it's introduc- tion.
 The Ways and Means Committed made no changes in the proposed legislation which contemplates a broad modification of the widely criticized undistributed profits anc capital gains taxes along with the imposition of new surtax on large incomes from corporations controll- ed by one family or a few indi. viduals.
