Tax laws to remain until after March 4
Washington discussions on tax policy focus on repealing the excess profits tax only after a special session of Congress called post March 4. Senator Penrose argues repeal may be vetoed by President Wilson, urging simplification of 1920 tax forms and caution about replacing revenue without broader revision. Generating revenue poses choices between higher income tax, sales tax, or real estate transfers, while protecting government obligations through 1923 and considering longer-term bonds.
