Tax Reduction Bill Spurs Senate Action and Delays
The Senate opened debate on a tax reduction bill with opponents warning against haste and the need to avoid delaying beyond March 15 for income tax payments due. Chairman Smoot aimed for final action by February 19 to secure a March 15 deadline, while senatorial disputes about conference adjustments and printing new tax blanks risked added delay. Senators North Tis and others doubted swift passage though Smoot argued the reform would relieve 100 percent of taxpayers and stressed revenue needs to meet $600 million in short term obligations. Members from both parties voiced support for early action including repeal of various levies and taxes on auto bodies, stamps, and stock transfers.
