Corporation Tax
Splits Senators

WASHINGTON, Aug. % (INS)
The Senate finance committee
today split sharply over the treas
ury's newest corporation tax pro-
gram, with the result that a de-
cision on revision Of corporation
tax rates in the $6,271, 900, 900 tax
bill was delayed until next week.
Vigorous opposition to the treas
ury's demand TO increase the
House As per cent normal-surtax
rates on corporations to SIS per cent
was the chief stumbling block.
Some committee members con-
tended that many corporations
could not continue in business I'M
der such a heavy tax rate.
The treasury's proposal calls for
the 55 per cent rate, together with
a 90 per cent excess profits levy
but with an overall limit Of 80 per
cent on a corporations tax. II also
includes other limitations, includ-
ing a IL per cent postwar refund
and carry-back Of losses to ease

refrigerators frozen in the hands
of manufacturers and distributors.
Dealers and members of the indus
try already have been informed of
the forthcoming action.
1t was understood the refrigera-
tors to be released for distribution
to consumers will be the expensive,
de luxe models which are consid-
cred unsuitable for defense hous-
ing and similar needs.
The release of over 100,000 units
is not expected to materially alter

officials that civilian demands for
refrigeration probably
will have to be filled for the dura-
ton of manufacturers Of old-fash-
