Roosevelt signs business tax revision ending undivided profits levy

President Roosevelt signed the business tax revision bill in Washington at 10 last night. The measure reimposes expiring excises and reshapes corporate taxes, replacing the undivided profits levy with a flat 18 percent tax on corporations over 25,000 and allowing loss carryovers for two years. It also permits full deduction of capital losses from assets held over 18 months.
