Constitutionality questioned in tax bill phase in senate
Washington April 25. The senate finance committee debated a phase of the $803 billion tax bill raising constitutional issues as administration allies sought to avoid House delays. Senator Bailey pressed the point on special treatment for debt ridden corporations, while Chairman Harrison defended classification. The bill would set a flat 22.5 percent rate on income for corporations obligated to apply to debts, with proposed penalties and new rules on dividend exemptions. Open hearings begin Thursday with Morgenthau expected to testify, as Congress aims to adjourn before the presidential nominating conventions.
