Kerr (D- Okla) said today his guess Is that the Senate will approve a move he co-sponsors to cut income taxes by Increasing personal exemptions of each taxpayer and dependent. He said In an interview he hopes this action will be taken In the Ben ate Finance Committee but' that, if j It Is not done there, he believes success will come on the Senate floor. The Finance committee, on which the Oklahoman serves, opens hearings today on a big tax re vision bill to which Democrats hope to attach the Income tax reduction. The Elsenhower administration strongly supports the revision bill, which would make assorted tax cuts totaling 41,400,000 to business and individuals in its first year of operation. Just an strongly it op poses any new Income tax slash. Senate Republican leaders voice confidence they can beat the in come tax cut as things stand now, citing indications that the business downturn is leveling off. Democratlo sponsors say it is too early to tell about the economic situation. Both sides agree that the eco nomic trend of the next two months probably will determine the out come of the income tax fight in the Senate. The Finance Committee plans to end its public hearings April 23 and finish writing its ver sion of the bill in May. It could be June before floor debate is finished. Democrats have used the buta- ness decline as their principal argu ment for the Income tax cut. They say efforts should be made to build up mass purchasing power Instead of Increasing incentives for busi ness expansion, which the adminis tration says is a main purpose of the revision bill.
