Taft and Aldrich plan to tax corporate earnings
The finance committee in the Senate debated a two percent tax on net earnings of corporations if income tax amendments were accepted.

Debate on the income tax and inheritance tax features continued as the wool schedule faced votes, including a duty rise on top waste and shoddy. La Follette and Warren clashed over wool duties with telegrams from small woolen owners cited in the fight.
