Sugar Tax Fight Stalls as Income Tax Is Debated
Washington June 28 Senator Gorman reports forty three Democrats will back the tariff as written.

Debates critique the tax as unconstitutional unequal and state usurping. The committee adopts a $1.10 per gallon tax on distilled spirits and passes sections 8 to 163.
