Tax plan sparks Senate dissent over 800 million levy
Washington reports a new tax plan to raise 800 million through penalties on undivided corporate profits and revised revenue rules. Administration leaders expect swift passage despite some senators opposition. Roosevelt seeks stronger taxes to push corporations to share income with stockholders. The measure must be ratified by Congress, with House likely to back it. The bill blends normal corporate taxes with graduated undistributed earnings rates and a 4 percent tax on dividends to stockholders, plus caps on capital stock taxes and a temporary windfall levy on certain individuals.
