Launch Attack On Tax Bill In Senate Fight
Washington reports Republicans launched a bid against the revised administration tax bill as New Deal supporters pushed it toward Senate passage within a week. Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg led the move to send the measure back to the Senate Finance Committee for further study, charging it is hasty and unbalanced and should not fit the current Congress program. He planned to press his attack once Senator Pat Harrison concluded opening arguments. Vandenberg, seen as a possible future presidential candidate, compared the bill to Henry Ford's example and argued the House estate tax substitution leaves the situation unchanged.
