Senate approves rail freight tax and passenger levy
The Senate voted to bill a 3 percent excise tax on rail freight and a 10 percent levy on passenger tickets, attached to a House bill extending the 52 percent corporate tax rate and present excise taxes on liquor, cigarettes, and autos. U.S. Steel said higher steel prices require serious consideration due to higher wage costs, and will not raise prices yet. Assistant Commerce Secretary Mueller said voluntary import curbs on crude oil succeed, refuting claims of a flood of foreign oil. Dun & Bradstreet reports retail volume dipped vs last year. Father's Day apparel sales were down, while women's clothing purchases rose slightly. Louis E. Wolfson sold about 100,000 of his 400,000 American Motors shares and may sell the rest by summer to focus on Merritt-Chapman & Scott.
