WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.—
(Al’)- The Senate approved
the $5,920,000,000 tax reduc-
tion bill today, sending it to
the White House for Presi-
dent Truman’e signature.
The House on Tuesday had
accepted the final form of the
measure as worked out by a
Senate-House conference.
Admittedly a “quickie” bill
to bridge the gap between V-
J Day and enactment of com-
prehensive postwar tax legis-
lation. it will—
Reduce everybody's income tax,
lift all income tax liability from
12,000,800 persons avid give veterans
special tax preference, for total in-
dividual reductions of »2,844,gSO.-
000.
Repeal the excess profits tax on
corporations, along with the de-
clared value excess profits levy and
the capital stock tax, and reduce
the combined normal and surtax
rates on business by from 2 to 4
percentage points, for a total cor-
porate saving ot J3.138.000.000,
End the use tax’* on cars and
boat*, reducing federal revenue by
8140,000.000. and
Freese Social Security
Freeze the social security pay-
roll tax throughout 194g at the
present rate of 1 per cent each on
employers and employes,
The bill makes no change in the
wartime excise taxes on such
things as furs and cosmetics. The
House had voted to set these back
to their 1942 rates next July but
the Senate balked.
Individuals drawing salaries or
I wages will feel the benefits imme-
diately after January 1. They’D
