TAX BOOST POUCH
(Continued from Page 1)
ment then was
eliminated
by a
vote of 8 to I.
Senator Borah (R-Ida) who had
criticised higher taxes on small
Incomes said the La Fallette
amendment could not hare mus
tered 20 senate votes and that the
reversal "means a quicker ad
journment,"
Just before the committee act
ed Speaker Byrnes lunched with
President Roosevelt and predict
ed flatly that the' house would not
accept higher taxes on small-sal
aried persons. He added that he
had not diseuased the tax rates
with the president.
Boost Now Affects
Only Fifty Persons
But his view was echoed by
leaders in both the. house and sen
ate. It was in this atmosphere
that the finance committee rever
sed itself.
Chairman Harrison (D-Mlss)
proposed the substitute to raise
sur-taxes only on incomes over
$1,000,009. The house surtax In
creases began at the 860,000 lev
el. How much revenue wonld be
lost by the Harrison -amendment
was not estimated immediately,
but It was believed to be a large
lump of the 4S0.000,000 the bill
was estimated to raise with the
La Follette amendment included.
On the basis of recent Internal
revenue figures, only about half
a hundred taxpayers would be af
fected by increases on over
000,000. The La Follette amend
ment had been estimated to af
fect not only the present 4,000,
000 persons filing returns but re
quire income reports from anoth
er 3,000,000. The house bill
touched an estimated 7,000 to 8,
000 persons.
