(JP) A $3,529,200,000 tax bill big gest in the nation's history and designed to make both individ uals and corporations dig deeper than ever to help finance the defense program headed to ward house consideration today after approval by the ways and means committee. Culminating three months of work, the committee stamped its final approval on the meas ure last night after a number of last-minute changes, among them inclusion of unprecedent ed levies on radio broadcasts and billboards. New Surtaxes New surtaxes on individual net incomes starting at five per cent on the first dollar of tax able income and ranging up to the present maximum of 75 per cent on incomes over $3,000,- 000 would virtually treble the payments of persons in the lower and middle brackets. For instance, a married man with two children and $3,000 of net income who now pays no tax would pay $11 under the pro posed levies. A man with the same number of dependents and a $5,000 net income who now pays $74.80 would pay $202.40 under the new schedule. Just before completing the bill, the committee struck out proposed excise taxes on candy and chewing gum, which would have yielded $18,200,000, and taxes on electric signs and cut lery. The latter would have pro duced about $6,000,000. Gift Tax Upped Another last-minute change provided for a slight additional boost in estate and gift taxes to produce $38,000,000 more than was previously agreed upon tentatively. The tax on broadcasting, esti mated to produce about $4,500,- 000 annually, would be levied on the net time sales of a sta tion, in excess of $100,000 an nually. The rates would start at five percent on sales of $100, 000 to $500,000, Increase to 10 percent on those from $500,000 to $1,000,000 and reach a maxi mum of 15 percent on all above that sum. Persons engaged in renting billboard space to others would be required to pay an occupa tional tax of $5 yearly on every billboard of 300 square feet or less; $8 on those between 300 and 600 square feet and $11 on I lose larger. It was esti mated this levy would yield $7,000,000. On Floor Tuesday The measure was scheduled for committee Introduction In the house today and adminls tratlon leaders planned to take it to the floor Tuesday for three days of debate under a tight, special rule which would pro hibit all but committee-approved amendments. The rule is to be debated Monday. Passage of the measure next week in approximately Its present form was virtually assured, leaders said. Outstanding among the excise taxes on goods and services were a proposed $5 annual use tax on all passenger automo biles, airplanes and yachts less than 28 feet long; $23 annually on coin operated amusement and gambling devices such as slot and pin-ball machines; a seven percent tax, double the present levy, on the sale of new automobiles; and 10 percent re tail sales taxes on toilet prepara tions. Including cosmetics, jew elry and furs. Other items which would be subject to new or higher taxes included watches, sporting goods, electrical appliances, of fice and business machines, photographic apparatus, com mercial washing machines and soft drinks.
