Simplification of Income Tax Provisions in Congress
Washington committee favored simplifying the income tax laws as part of the 1924 revenue act revision. The House Wars and Means Committee sent key provisions to a subcommittee to assess feasibility and whether a special committee should be appointed. The panel approved main provisions for the new tax cut bill, adjourned to Monday. It retained the 10 percent tax on pistols and automatic revolvers and allowed direct appeals from the board of tax appeals to the U.S. circuit court of appeals in the taxpayer’s district. The treasury could settle insolvency cases to avoid destroying businesses, and a 6 percent interest charge was set on 1917 and 1918 tax assessments as later confirmed. The government currently pays interest on refunds, and interest is charged on other tax assessments.
