Special Income Tax
On War Contracts
Urged by George
Says Increase in Levy
On kon-MiIitory Orders
Would Be Unfair
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A special tax on the income
from military production con-
tracts was proposed today by
Chairman George of the Senate
Finance Committee to supple
ment congressional efforts to
limit war profits.
He termed such a special levy "a
tust and proper STEP" To include
an increase in tax on military
orders, he said, would be unfair.
A joint Senate-H House Conference
Committee will take up the profit
question later this month when it
meets to consider amendments to
. $l9,2l2,000,0 900 military appropria-
tion bill, but Senator George said
1t was his opinion that a practical
curb on excessive earnings could be
accomplished only through taxation.
Nye Inclined to Agree.
Inclining to agree with Senator
George, Senator Nye. Republican, of
North Dakota, said the Conference
Committee, of which he is a men,
Der, was likely to be hampered in
its work by fear that too drastic
curbs on profits might slow down
industrial production.
II, for one, am not going to agree
to anything that will impede pro-
duction," he said, "and there is
some rather conclusive evidence that
production officials believe a profit
limitation would do just that"
These officials, including Chair
man Donald M. Nelson of the War
Production Board, will be called in
when the Conference Committee
seeks to compose Senate and House
differences.
House Voted Flat Limit.
The House voted a fiat per cent
profit limitation on contracts let
with funds provided in the s1s,212,-
5000 bill.
With unenthusiaStic acquiescence
OF Mr.. Nelson and others, the Sem
ate on the other hand voted to vest
a discretionary control over profits
in the hands of key war program Of
flcials, authorizing them to renego-
tiate any present or future contracts
on which they suspected excessive
proflts were bing made.
Says Tax Bill Is Fairer.
Observing that adoption of any
profit limitation proposal would force
readjustment Of the forthcoming tax
program, Senator George said he
was confident that the whole matter
could be handled much more fairly
In the new revenue bill.
IF we merely increase the excess
profits taxes on all corporations, we
would practically cruelty many tax
payers whose business has no con-
nection with the war and whose net
incomes are being reduced sharply
because Of war priorities and other
developments" Senator George said.
Senator Nye predicted that the
Conference Committee would refuse
to fix any specified percentage to
which war profits might be limited,
writing merely a general formula
somewhat similar to that adopted by
the Senate.
