 Tax Cut Bill

Washington, Oct. l6-(UP)--Tht aCIO asked congress today for c tax bill that would save individuals about $6,600 000, 900 in i946 and leave cor. poration taxes unchanged. N
 Clifford McAvoy, legislative rep- resentatiVe for the CTO, told the senate finance committee that the unions proposal would give tax re- lief where 1t Is needed most and would convert the savings into pur- chasing power as a stimulant to rec conversion.
 McAvoy renounced the House-ap- proved $5, ,350, ,000, 900 tax cut bill be- cause of the tax relief 1t offered corporations. The House bill would relieve about l20o0,00o low-income individuals from any federal inc come tax in i046, cut the levy on others and reduce the corporation excess profits and normal taxes.
 As an alternative, McAvoy pro- posed:
 l. Repeal the three per cent norm al tax assessed under present law agairEt all income more than $500 Q year regardless of family status. It would relieve l2,000,0 ,000 low-in- come persons from any federal tax and slightly reduce the taxes of hlgher-income individuals. (T he House bill would allow $500 exernp. ton for each dependent in addl- ton to the taxpayer and give per- sons with higher incomes more re. duction than the CTO proposal)
 McAvoy estimated that elimina. ton of the normal tax would save taxpayers about $2,ooo,0oo,oo0 and
