House votes to fund armor plate plant and ship program
The House adopted amendments to the naval appropriation bill approving 11 million dollars for a government armor plate plant and 3.5 million for aircraft, plus provisions for 2790 sailors and incentives for private shipbuilding. Republicans and progressives crossed party lines, with 23 Republicans and two progressives supporting the armor plate plan and 13 Democrats joining Republicans on the airplane amendment. Work on general revenue legislation began in Ways and Means with drafts of three bills: a 100 million dollar income tax increase, a 50 million dollarInheritance tax, and a tax on munitions plants. Separately a clash looms between postoffice department officials and the Senate postoffice committee over the Postmaster General Blakslee testimony alleging committee surrender to the railroad in framing the post office bill, with Burleson likely to resist reprimand.
