Washington, D. C, July 29. The
senate finance committee reached a
tentative agreement late today to re
vise the present $1,070,000,000 war
tax bill so as to raise at least $1,943,-

the senate will be $2,000,000,000.
About 230,000,000 cf the increase
will be obtained through higher in
come tax rates $70,000,000 for the
individuals and the rest from cor
porations. The committee figured on
an increase in the normal rate on
individuals from 2 to 5 per cent and
on corporations to ( per cent. The
rest of the increase may be obtained
by increasing the excess profits tax
and by consumption taxes on sugar,
tea, coffee and cocoa.
Under the program $1,002,700,000
would be the total levy this year upon
incomes. The present law yields
$300,000,000, and the pending bill
originally was designated to increase
this by $532,700,000, and the $230,
000,000 additional it Is now proposed
to levy would raise it over the billion
mark.
The senate committee will confine
its work for the present to the cur
rent war tax bill and will leave to
the house the task of raising the
rest cf the $7,000,000 the administra
tion believes it must have to prose
cute the war this year.
