WASHINGTON, May 19 (INS)
With the picture only a little
short OF chaotic. Chairman George
CD of Georgia, of the Senate
finance committee, today set a To-
day deadline for the Senate and
House to agree on a tax plan If
the proposed act is to operate this
year.
'If we don't reach a decision
by next week." George said, "the
collection of taxes by withhold
Ing from pay envelopes will not
commence July I, and We will
have TO postpone the effective
date until next Jan. l."
He made the assertion as Sen
ate and House conference commit
tees prepared TO meet tomorrow
for discussions aimed at writing
some kind of a pay-aS-you-go bill
which will enable the two branches
to compose their differences.
Confronted by a presidential
threat of veto, the lower branch
administered it's third setback to
the widely publicized Ruml plan
by vote of 202 to 1914.
Senator Vandenberg (R) of
Michigan, conferee. said:
Anything can happen. II Is
going to be the tightest-tied con-
ference you ever saw"
Supporters OF the Ruml proposal
were downcast over the adverse
House action. Said Senator Lucas
