Surtax Passes House Amid Harding Accord
Washington reports the House voted 201 to 173 to accept a 50 percent maximum surtax as urged by President Harding, while the Senate had proposed 50 percent and a 40 percent compromise emerged after White House talks. The decision followed mixed signals from leaders and a push by Republicans and insurgents to adjust the revenue bill in favor of a 40 percent cap.
