President Roosevelt Re-
news Appeal For Quick
Action On The Bill
BY RICHARD. L. TURNER

WASHINGTON, Sept. g. Up -
The house batted down dozens OF
proposed amendments to the peace
time CONSUMPTION bill today, in
GLIDING all efforts to alter the mea-
sure's draft age limitations of 81
to A inclusive.
In addition, to the accompani-
ment of much bantering and jol-
lily, it turned back a semi-serious
attempt by Rep. Schafer CR-Wis)
to require that all members of
congress less than IS years of age
register for the drat.
To Require Housing
1t accepted, however, an amend
ment by Rep. Austin (R-Conn) to
require housing facilities w h i C h
meet United States public health
service standards at training camp
before any men could be indicted
into service. 1t was approved ten
tatively on a lis to IS teller vote.
The amendments were disposed
of in rapid fire order, in contrast
with yesterdays session, w h i C h
saw action on only a single amend
ment-the approval of a 6O-day de-
lay in the application of %conscrip-
ton to give the voluntary enlist
ment system a further trial.
During the morning, President
Roosevelt declined to make any
comment on the draft postpone
ment amendment, but renewed his
appeal for quick action on the con-
scription bill, defense appropria-
ton measures and the excess pro-
fits tax bill, with a two-word state
ment: Tempus Fugit Cline flies).

house approved the section on age
limits, although the figures pro-
posed in the pending bill had been

measures more p~rotracted con-

BIG CHANGES MADE

Include 81 Per Cent Boost
In Normal Tax Rate For
All. Corporations

WASHINGTON, Sept. g. Up -
The senate finance committee de-
cided on a sweeping revision OF
the pending excess profits tax bill
today, including a 81 per cent
boost in the normal tax rate for
all corporations and imposition of a
10 per cent special tax on profits
flowing from American or foreign
defense orders.

which he described as Tentative
was subject to further change be-
fore the job of rewriting the bill
has been finished. He expressed
hope the bill would be ready for
senate consideration by Monday.
The increase in the normal in
come tax, it was explained, would
raise the levy in the top bracket
corporations with over $25, 900 net
income-from 20.9 to "a per cent.
Similar increases were made in
other brackets. The rate would be
per cent for corporations
earning S., 1000 or less.
Among other things, the commit
tee agreed to eliminate the Al per
cent penalty tax" which the bill,
as it passed the house, would have
applied to corporations basing
their determination of excess pro-
fits on average earnings for. the
base period 1936-1939.
At the same time, the commit
tee fixed at from Is to so per cent

all xcess profits.
