Oil Depletion Tax Seen Safe For Another Year

Washington April 7 Confidence grows that the present 27 1 4 per cent oil depletion allowance will remain intact for at least one more year. Congress members from oil states and Washington oil groups indicate no change this year. The administration proposed a cut to 15 per cent, but industry argues the current allowance is essential to encourage exploration. A Ways and Means Committee member, speaking off the record, expects no change. Another member noted Treasury Secretary Snyder’s appearance before the panel on April 2 and saw little chance of recommending a change.
