Eisenhower to urge House appeal on tax bill
President Eisenhower plans a last minute written appeal to the House to support extending the excess profits tax. A top GOP leader said the letter may be read Monday as the House fights over the procedure and aims to balance the budget curb inflation and strengthen the dollar. Martin predicts the House will approve the Rules Committee move to take the tax extension bill from the Ways and Means Committee. The move could allow a full House vote on the president's program before the tax levy expires next Tuesday.
