Revision of war tax bill released by Senate Finance Panel
Washington July 2 The Senate finance committee completed a revised war tax bill five weeks after a Senate vote. The measure trims to 1 21 000 000 and rejects new bond authorizations while projecting bond issuance of 135 million to cover war expenses until December. Incomes and excess profits would bear about two thirds of the burden with other changes to rents and corporate rates. The final draft moves to committee today and then to Senate leadership for early-week action.
