Tax cuts edge closer as House panel okay reads
Washington Aug 10 The Ways and Means Committee tentatively approved far-reaching changes to the tax levy bill, repealing the excess profits tax and the transportation tax, raising the dependent exemption to 400 dollars, and extending other reforms. The plan, still subject to revisions, aims to move the tax bill to the House next Monday, with potential further reductions under discussion and a possible 30 day recess if enacted.

Embargo on Dues Remains Supported by Administration
Washington Aug 10 The Harding Administration will push to continue the due embargo amid fears Congress may lift it before the armament limitation conference. President Harding and key officials argue the embargo protects American dye plants and supply lines from German competition, with Weeks and Denby urging support in Congress. The move seeks to preserve the U.S. dye industry and national security while opponents debate its political viability.
