Agreement on Eight Hundred Million Tax Bill Reached
Washington June 18 Congress neared adjournment amid furious debate over a proposed $800 million tax package. Senators Bellator and Vandenburg led Republicans in shaping a compromise combining a graduated corporation tax from 12 to 15 percent and additional surtaxes on earnings distributed to shareholders, aiming to raise about $40,000,000 for a year. The plan aligns with Roosevelt recommendations, moving away from the earlier Senate approach toward a broader corporate tax system.
