Approval Seen for
Administration’s
Big Tax Overhaul
WASHINGTON, (#)—Republican
leaders Thursday predicted final
congressional approval, possibly
next week, for the biggest tax
overhaul program in 75 years.
A House-Senate conference com
mittee late Wednesday agreed on
a compromise version of the bill
to cut taxes next year for millions
of individuals and many business
firms a total of about $1,363,000,
000.
President Eisenhower has failed
the plan as the cornerstone of his
entire domestic program, predict
ing it would encourage business
[ growth, remove scores of inequi
ties and lead to more and better
jobs.
But Sen. Douglas (D-Ill) served
notice Thursday he would renew
when the measure returns to the
Senate for final action, a running
fight many Democrats have waged
against one provision in the bill—
a cut in income taxes on divi
dends received by corporation
stockholders.
On this politically touchy issue,
the conference committee agreed
to permit taxpayers to deduct
their first $50 of dividend income,
In addition, they could subtract
4 percent of their remaining divi
dends directly from the tax bill
they otherwise would pay. A man
with $10,000 income from divi
dends could get a tax cut of slight
ly more than $400.
The bill, running almost 1,000
pages, revamps almost every tax
law on the books, at least techni
cally. However it does not change
major rates.
It permits scores of new or big
ger deductions for medical ex
penses, depreciation, retirement
income, child-care expenses, de
pendents who make more than
$600, sick benefits, soil conserva
tion outlays, and other items.

Gen. Billy Mitchell
Lauded by McKay at
Dedication Ceremonies
FAIRBANKS, UP)—The late Gen.
William (Billy) Mitchell was laud
ed by Secretary of the Interior
McKay Wednesday as “a man
marked by destiny, a challenger
of frontiers.”
McKay spoke at a dedication of
a new Alaska Communications
System toll station named for the
former Air Force general, who
as a first lietutenant in the Army
Signal Corps surveyed the first
telegraph lines in Alaska in 1901
and 1902.
“His Alaskan assignment was
far removed from the career in
aviation that was eventually to
place him among the ranks of
America’s most distinguished sol
diers,” McKay said, “but in com
pleting that assignment Mitchell
contributed greatly to the con
quering o'f this northern frontier.”
