Congress Revises Night Club Tax Cut To Fifteen Percent
Washington June 2 The House Ways and Means Committee reversed a prior vote reducing the federal tax on night club bills from 20 to 10 percent, instead setting it at 15 percent.

Remaining items will be debated Monday along with a potential 650 million dollar increase in corporate taxes requested by President Truman. The panel reaffirmed cutting Economy brand cigarette taxes from 7 to 49 cents while snuff tax relief was linked to chewing tobacco. Some lawmakers worry whether any tax cuts will pass this year amid President Truman’s veto threats and delayed action.
