Musa objected most strongly to the elimination of deductions. He said it isn't fair to cancel the de duction for contributions to char ity, as the House committee would do. ! He added that he hasn't re ceived a single letter in favor of the House plan, although it Is the same as that voted by the legis lative interim committee on taxa tion several months ago. Rep! George Annala, D-The Dalles, chairman of the House Elections Committee, predicted his committee would vote over whelmingly against the proposed constitutional amendment to re duce the minimum voting age from 21 to 18.
