The Senate voted yesterday to

Senate Due 10 Pass
Tax Revision Today
Moves for Cut Beaten

The Senate was close to ina
passage Of the general tax re.
vision bill today after beatinf
both a Republican and q Demo.
cratic effort to give individuals
between $500 million and $500
million of additional relief ii
1855 through higher exemptions
Without those amendments
the bill already gives individuals
and corporations about $l.4 bill
lion Of new tax relief, but is ac-
/ ceptable to the administration
at that level.
After differences with the
House are ironed out, and the
bill goes to the President, it will
bring to about ST. billion the
aggregate Of tax reduction To
take effect since January /.
/ when the excess profits tax ex-
/ pired and personal income taxes
were cut 10 per cent. A few
months later Congress also
chopped 81 billion from excise
rates.
The two major parties fought
each other to q draw yesterday
In their rival efforts to offer a
further tax concession to the av-
erage wage Garner in this cleo
ton year.
Actually, the result was a VIC
tory for the Eisenhower admin
istration. because the adoption
OF either relief plan would have
put q further strain on the
Treasury. which probably will
have to ask for an increase in
the $275 billion debt ceiling
before adjournment even as the
bill now stands.
There was more than sus-
picion in Capitol cloakrooms that
the Republicans offered their
new tax-cutting amendment un-
expectedly yesterday only for,
the purpose Of making it easier
to head of the more costly
Democratic plan.
All AZ Democrats voted solidly
against the Republican plan,
and were Joined by one Repub-
lican. Senator LANCER OF North
Dakota, and the lone Inde-
pendent. Senator Morse of
Oregon. This made the vote
40 to As.
Then the Republicans stood
almost as solidly against the
Democratic plan. They lost only
the two Republicans from North
Dakota-Lalger and Young
and Senator Morse.
But the four men, who cast
the decisive votes were Demo-
cratic Senators Byrd and Rob-
ertson Of Virginia. Holland of
Florida and johnson of Colorado.
They held the line against any
further tax cut by voting against
both the Republican and Demo-
cratic proposals.
Senator Mccarthy, Republi-
can, OF Wisconsin was the only
member not present yesterday,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-07-01

/ but his vote would not have
1 changed the result.
Senators Byrd and johnson
have contended from the start
that. since they have opposed
raising the debt ceiling, they
could not vote for tax cuts that
would make q higher ceiling
more imperative.
/ And Senator Robertson served
notice he would OFFER another
motion today to hold all taxes
where they are for another year.
This would mean pOstponing all
of the tax relief in the pending
bill, and combining the measure
to one section, which extends the
So per cent rate on corporations,
instead Of letting it 60 down this
year to ~ per cent.
Chances Held Slim.
Indications are the Robertson
motion viii fail because many
Senators favor the hundreds or
provisions in the bill designed
to correct inequities in the tax
code.
The Democrats will make one
more effort today to strike out
all Of the special tax credits IN
the House bill for recipients Of
dividend income. but this also is
expected to fail.
When the Senate met yester-
day morning the Democrats had
at least IS votes lined up for
the proposal of the veteran SEN
ator George Of Georgia, which
would have:
Killed all special credits for
dividend recipients. and substi-
tuted nat increase OF 500 in
the $500 personal exemption Of
every taxpayer and dependent.
This would have cost the Treas
ury $657 million in 1855 and
more than SIS billion a wear
thereafter. They needed to pick
up only three more Republicans
to gain clear majority, and at
least half a dozen g. o. p. SEN
ators were FESTIVE over the pros-
pect Of having to vote against
me George plan with no alter
native.
