All this means that the COM
mission is faced with a terrific
headache in deciding who the
lucky $50 officials will be, as well
as determining the 20 among
them who will get the top salary
In his memorandum the other
day, President Truman said only
20 officials should receive the
$14, ,000-a-year pay. The other
130 executives will get from
$1,000 to $4,000 in Grade 16,
and $4,000 to $4,000 in Grade
IT.
The commission well remem-
bers the furor that followed its
selection of 400 Federal executives
for the same $1,000 to $4,000
job category earlier this year. The
400 positions were authorized by
Congress last year as part Of the
Classification Act of 1949. Then
this year Congress removed the
limitation of 400 in the interest
of the defense effort.

Committee 10 Begin:
Writing Excess Profits
Tax Bill Tomorrow
BY The Associofsd Press

Congressional tax writer's will
cut their Thanksgiving holiday
break to one day in order to begin
pen work tomorrow on an excess
profits tax measure tailored to
meet President Truman's specifi-
cations.
The House Ways and Means
Committee ended week-long hear
| ings on the measure yesterday
with Republican and Democratic
members swapping charges of
politics" and obstructionist
tactics
Determined to frame q business
profits tax measure in time for
action by the lame duck" con-
gressional session opening Monday,
Chairman Doughton cracked the
whip over reluctant committee
members to bring them back to
work tomorrow. He hopes to have
the bill ready by December /.
Agreement Lacking.
In advance of the scheduled
closed meeting. there appeared to
be no general agreement on spe-
cific methods for taxing business
profits to raise the 81 billion M1S
Truman wants.
There was considerable discus
sion OF combining an excess p. offs
tax with an across-the-board in
crease In corporate income taxes,
now at 45-per-cent rate.
There also was discussion of
imposing ceiling, possibly Up
to IS per cent, on the Govern
ment's total tax take from busi-
ness earnings.
Committee members appeared
agreed in principle that relief
provisions are needed to provide
special tax consideration for hard
ship cases, small or growing COM
panies. public utilities and busi-
nesses whose financial structure
does not f1t the framework Of a
profits tax.
The administration proposal
would levy the regular As per cent
corporate tax against rs per cent
OF normal" earnings and rs per
cent against all excess earnings
over that. Average annual earn
ings for the 1946-l949 period
would provide the yardstick for
determining normal earnings. -.
Business Opposes Plan.
Committee Republicans and
spokesmen for business oppose
any excess profits tax as infia-
tionary and unavoidable. For rev.
enue purposes they advocate as a
substitute straight increase in
the present corporate tax rate on
all business earnings.
i At the conclusion Of hearings
Yesterday. Representative Reed of
New York, top committee Repub-
lican, announced he will take the
G. Q. P. fight for a profits tax
substitute to the floor of the
House on Monday.
Mr.. Reed said he will offer. a
Joint resolution directing that a
tax bill be reported as soon as
practicable to raise the necessary
revenue and combat imitation
through a cooperative excess
profits tax"
In the unlikely event it :. is
passed by both Houses, this wo,ild

sideration Of the G. o. P.'s pro-
posal for a straight boost In the
corporate tax rate as a substitute
for the excess profits tax. =
