Cut in Excise (Continued from Page 1) Snyder repeated President Ti'uman's statement that the ex cise tax cuts must be offset by closing loopholes in other taxes to make up the lost revenue. Plugging these loopholes, Sny- aer said, is expected to yield the $655,000,000 net loss through excise tax reductions .$695 000, 000 less the $40,000,000 expect ed from the new television tax) In addition, Snyder amplified the president's plan for getting an extra $1,000,000,000 from the corporation income lax and es tate and gift taxes with these recommendations: Collecting $875,000,000 a year more Irom corporations by rais ing the present 38 per cent gen eral corporate rate to 42 per cent. However, the 42 per cent levy would apply only to prof its in excess of $25,000 a year. Profits under that would be sub ject only to the present lower rates, which average 23 per cent.
