War May Postpone Tax Cuts
In Washington the House excise tax plan faces potential delay if the international situation worsens. Chairman George (D-Ga) of the Ways and Means Committee said final action could be postponed into January with a broader tax bill, while Treasury officials urged higher taxes elsewhere to offset losses from the proposed excise cuts. The House approved a $1.01 billion excise reduction, aiming to balance by a corporate levy and other reforms, with Senate doubts on overhauls of estate and gift taxes. Paradise, Calif., District Director Roy V. Peel said Paradise’s population count will not be determined as it is not an incorporated town.
