His four proposals included President Eisenhower's requests lor highway fuel tax and postal rate increases and two of Neuber ger's own. These would hit cor porations by restoring the wartime excess profits tax and cutting the oi!-gas depletion allowance from 27 1 z to 15 per cent. "This is not an easy program." Neuberger said in a prepared Senate speech. "It holds out no illusions that the way ahead is strewn with rose petals. It asks sacrifices of the high, the low and the in-between. "It recognizes the grim lact that we are engaged in a cold war with a mighty colossus, the Soviet Un ion, and that the survival of the ftee world may depend upon our capacity for sacrifice and unsel lish service." Neuberger said the American people will "respond affirmative ly" if they are "told the truth." His four bills would provide this revenue: r24.OO0.0O0 in fiscal I960 from a Pa cents a gallon increase in the tax on gasoline, diesel fuel and special fuels. $325,000,000 by lowering the depletion allowance for oil and gas to 15 per cent.
