Lawmakers Team Up On Security Bill
Senate leaders from both parties joined to speed passage of an expanded social security program. Amendments begin voting tomorrow as Lucas and Taft seek to keep the bill close to the Senate finance committee version. The measure would extend coverage to about 10 million more people and boost aged benefits while trimming some public assistance provisions. Debate also shifts to a peace-time draft with a proposed race-based unit limitation, as stalled at this stage of the session.

Final Voting Begins On Tax Cut Bill
The House ways and means committee rejected a proposed cut in the federal tax on economy cigarets, voting 13 to 12 against it. The panel tentatively set a 4.9 cent per pack rate for low-priced cigarettes but later struck that decision. The committee plans a floor vote on boosting corporation taxes by about 500 million annually and lawmakers discuss wartime excise tax cuts with offsetting increases. President Truman favors wartime tax cuts but wants offsetting rises elsewhere. Senate leaders expect action to wrap up by July.
