The reluctance OF House Ways

eompahied BY growing demand in
Congress for a reduction in gov

demand has now been taken up
by the Democrats who are insisting
that the huge expenditures for war
be policed more carefully.

Tax Bill May
be Vetoedin
White House
Senate Readies
Self For Floor
Fight Tuesday

Washington. May 10 ms
Democratic tax leaders In the SEN
ate today reported that there is
"a strong probability" that Pres
ident Roosevelt will veto the Ruml
Carlson pay-as-you.go tax bill ii
enacted by Congress.
This report. which came from
highly placed sources but which
was discounted by Ruml plan
hackers, was circulated as the
Senate readied itself for a floor
/, battle over the issue tomorrow.
Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t was pointed
out, has publicly opposed the Ruml
plan OF forgiving the entire 1912
or 1913 tax liability in order 10
make taxpayers current, while the
Treasury has violently fought il.
Seek Early Vote
Leaders OF both factions in the
Senate, however. agreed TO seek
an early vote. Debate is expected
to begin tomorrow. possibly late
today.
The Treasury was warned that
bin must be passed by about
May 10 so that the Bureau OF In
ternal Revenue can complete the
paper work" necessary to put in
to effect the proposed 20 per cent
Withholding tax on July |.
Chief argument against the
Ruml-Carlson plan was that it for
gave taxes for well-todo, taxpay-
ers. Supporters declared that anti
windfall provisions prevent war
rich from profiting by the for.
glveness and that other provisions
will result in the Treasury even.
tually collecting the forgiven tax
Nobody gets any cash and over
a lifetime the total OF eight Or
nine billions involved will be re.
covered" said Sen. Vandenberg
(R) Mich.
With last minute changes pos
sible, the Ruml-Carlson bill as re-
vised by the Senate Finance Com
mittee provides:
A Withholding tax of 20 per cent
becomes effective July /. with an
exemption OF 1924 for single per
sons. stsss ,.or married persons
and an allowance of 1912 for each
dependent. This is designed to
collect in full the tax liability OF
the average taxpayer.
Current payment is provided for
income not withheld at the source.
This Is done by requiring declar-
atoms on the basis OF estimated in
come dthing the year. The declar-
alton Is made generally on March
Is OF each year and quarterly pay.
ments are made.
The 1912 or 1913 tax liability Of
the taxpayer Is forgiven. except
for recoupment provisions in the
anti windfall provisions.
