Mellon tax bill eyes board of tax appeals
Washington January 10 tentative approval was given by the House ways and means committee to the provision creating a board of tax appeals. Democrats and Republicans predicted its recommendation. The panel ordered a favorable report on Green's constitutional amendment to end tax free securities. The session moved on to the revenue bill as leaders planned a conference with war veterans demanding action on a soldiers bonus. Longworth opposed his own plan to push for a February 11 report, focusing committee work on the tax bill.
