President Roosevelt urged broadening the income tax base to include more taxpayers and possibly raise rates slightly in middle brackets. He doubted Congress would act this session, warned against relying on lower exemptions to pay the debt, and noted the revenue from a broader base would offset administrative costs. Meanwhile, the House Ways and Means Committee mapped revision of business taxes, allowing net operating losses for two years and moving toward repealing the undistributed profits tax with an 18 percent levy on large corporations.
