Committee ATTEMPTS
To Prevent Tax Bill
Changes From Floor
Fight Expected on Plan
To Ask Rules Unit for
Ban on Amendments
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The House Ways and Means
Committee decided today to sur
round it's new $s,250,00O,00O tax
bill with enough safeguards to
prevent any modification when
presented to the House for debate
and passage this week.
Despite the one-vote margins and
even tie votes by which many deci-
sions were made, the committee
agreed to ask the Rules Committee
to approve procedure which would
preclude all amendments except
those minor revisions which might
be drafted by the committee itself.
Thus, beginning Thursday, the
greatest revenue bill in the Nations
history could be discussed by the
entire membership but not modi-
fed. This procedure has been fol-
lowed in floor debate on revenue
measures for many years to avoid
weeks or months of argument. A
fight was in prospect on the ques-
ton of adopting such a rule, how
ever.
Bearing the approval of all but
five of the Is committee members,
the bill fell $2,45O,O00,000 short of
Secretary Morgenthau's $8,700,000,-
600 tax goal. 1t would impose taxes
of about $2,485, ,400,000 on corpora
tions, and personal income taxes
totaling $2,958, 100000.

ing that the House majority refused
even to sign an admission OF dis

Senator Russell said he would
make a report to the Senate at
once" and added that either the
Senate or House could vote to dis
charge its present conferees from
consideration Of the bill.

Government shall be allowed to sell
surplus grain at prices below parity
for livestock feed. The House has
opposed the proposal, the Senate is
for it and President Roosevelt has
