The Senate rejected a treasury provision in the revenue bill that limited tax reductions on income from tax exempt securities by a 37 to 36 vote. Proponents argued it would curb evasion and add 235 million dollars annually, while opponents called it an indirect levy on tax free bonds. Opening of tax returns to examination by Congress was approved. Senator Norris urged full publicity. Senator McKellar criticized refunds without hearings.
