War Tax Bill Passes Amid Senate Fight Over Extension
The administration’s first revenue measure to extend the emergency war tax for one year passed the Senate 35 to 29 and was signed by the president. Senator Smoot of Utah offered a June 30, 1916 extension limit, rejected 25 to 50 with five Republicans opposing. Underwood delivered a maiden speech and aided by his experience as a finance authority. He suggested Republicans did not seek protection to curb foreign competition, noting foreign imports under the Democratic tariff had not harmed U.S. industry and the country remained prosperous with the Underwood act still in force.
