Washington, Dee. ft (U.B
The house, rebuffing the admin
istration on major legislation for
the first time since the election,
today passed and sent to the sen
ate a bill to freeze the social
security payroll tax at its pres
ent level through 1949. The vote
was 262 to 72.
Desnlte prosoects of a presi
dential veto, the house decided
that the old-age insurance tax
should remain at Its present
level of 1 per cent each on em
ployers and employes next year.
Under the existing law, the tax
would double January 1. Sched
uled increases in the levy al
ready have been blocked for
three consecutive years,
Supporters of the bill argued
that the old-age Insurance trust
fund was far above earlier fore
casts and that no tax Increase
was needed at this time at least
until the ways and means com
mittee has completed a study
which It has promised to under
take next year. Opponents con
tended that although the tax re
ceipts had exceeded earlier esti
mates there had been a corre
sponding Increase In the liabili
ties of the trust fund.

DIFFERS IN BILLS
Salem, Ore., Dee. 8 (U.R) A
difference of $3,000,000 in the
amount of money that would 'be
made available to Oregon for
postwar roar building from fed
eral funds was noted between
the bills passed by the U. S.
senate and . the house of repre
sentatives by R. H. Baldock.
state highway engineer, today.
The senate bill would provide
$43,000,000 as Oregon's share of
the total, while the house meas
ure would allow $42,000,000 for
the first three postwar years.
The main difference is that
the house bill has no provision
for funds for railroad grade
crossing elimination, and limits
tho maximum for that purpose
to IS per cent Baldock said. .
