Without a dissenting vote, the Senate today struck from the tax re- vision bill the section imposing a tax of 1 cent for each 25 cents or fraction for the transportation of parcel post packages, the change to be effective next January 1.° This comp]eted adoption of the compromise plan for repealing all transportation taxes. Penrose Sesks Warly Vote. An agreement with demacratio lead~ ers for a final 'vite 0n the tax revision bill the last of pext week or early in the ‘wesk following 48 to be sought soon by Chairman Penrose of the Senate finance ‘committee. If such an arrangement can be made, Senater Penrose believes the measure can ba sent to the President before the end of this month, although this would give lees than a week for a conference agreement between the House and Senate. The compromise amendments agreed to by republican leaders have met moxt of the objections to the original bill made by the democrats, but the minority leaders are. prepared to make a fight for a graduated income tax on eorporations and for reducs tions in the taxes on individudls hav- ing incomes of less than $15,000. Fight Over Excess Profits. There also {s a movement on the demoeratic side for some sort of a substitute for the excess profits tax. Republican leaders are determined to repeal this tax, and they expect rr-at ically & esolld majority vote on his proposition, as well .as on the 15 per gent corporation income tax. Re- Publl«n leaders in the House are nclined to insist .on the House rate of 13% rr cent, and this difference wl}l be fought out in conference. f the compromise program pre- vails—and Republican Senate leaders’ declare it will despite the opposition from the manufacturers’ bloc to some features—the bix point of difference fn conference.will be the maximum income surtax rate. There is a growing bellef at the Capitol that the perhaps to the original rate of 32 per cent. Senate demotrats will oppose such a plan if embodied in the conference report, and’ they look for support from republicans in. the agricultural “bloc” who drew up the pending compromise plan. Protest From Druggists. The suggested amendments. for a tax of $6.40 a gallon on all distilled spirits, with a redate of $4.30 a galion on that ysed for industrial or medioi- nal purposes, has brought a protest from wholesale and retail druggists ;nii :]Iunu(la:!urerl“o! lnduratrln nlm‘; 01, druggists supplies, perfumery an flavoring utruti k these interests have addressed a joint letter to the finance committee declhr- ing that this prépdsal would tie up millions of* dollats ‘for an .indefinite period, and would put out of business innumerable smail merchants and manufacturers, not possessing ‘or able to borrow the necessary additional capital to finance themseives pending adjustment by the Treasury of alco- hol rebate accounts. Compromise Program Started. The republican compromise tax re- visio® program was started on Its way through the Senate yesterday with the adoption without a dissent- ing or record vote of an’ amendment proposing repeal<on“néxt January 1 of the transportation taxes on freight, passengers, Pullman Accom- modations, express packédges and ofl by pipe line. There were increasing .4#videndes, however, both on the flear of the Senate and behind the scenes that someé of the other compromise pro- posals would not find as essy &ail- ing. Replying to an inquiry from the democratic side, Senator McCumber of North Dakota, - temporarily in charge of the revenue bill, an- nounced that the compromise amend- ments would not be offered on be- half of the full republican member- ship of the finance cominittee; that he was against some of them and that he and other committeemen re- served the right to oppose them. Amendment Voted Bown. Before adopting the transportation tax repeal amendment the Senate voted down. 38 to 30, an amendment by Senator Trammel, democrat, Flori- da, proposing that the repeal be ef- fective ten days after the passage of the bill. Disposal of thess two amendments constituted practically all progress made yester: on the bill _{tself. Much of the day was + .
