Vote to Extend Business Taxes
Washington The House Ways and Means Committee voted to extend corporate income and excise taxes for one more year at a 3 billion dollar annual levy. Secretary Humphrey urged rapid action saying it would be wrong to return to deficit financing and that the current levies hinder growth though he offered no immediate tax cut.
