Compromise On Tax Cut Predicted In Senate Talks
Washington February 27 Democratic leaders reportedly back a July 1 1956 start for a $20 per person income tax cut and extended corporation and excise levies. The plan aims to ease tension with President Eisenhower and set up a tax showdown at the start of the presidential campaign. Senator Smathers supports the approach noting the State of the Union may have invited a Republican tax cut. Incumbent opposition centers on Byrd and Virginian concerns over deficits. The House previously moved to cut the tax next January 1, with revenue losses estimated at 2.2 billion for the year, or 800 million for the partial period. Extending levies to July 1 could generate about 750 million in the interim.
