House Favors Heavier Tax Cuts Than Vinson Proposes
The House Ways and Means Committee moved beyond Vinson's plan, endorsing a Carlson compromise that reduces top tax rates and boosts exemptions. The measure would cut rates by four points in each bracket and raise exemptions to 500 for dependents, 3500 for taxpayers, shifting the normal tax and surtax structure. Congress also debated government reorganization and rail rate policies while national security topics and ship measures moved forward.
