House committee tables which purported to show how the tax would operate. But one Congressional tax expert admited today that he didn't know how the Treasury experts arrived at some of their figures; and) so now—after the bill has passed the | House—this expert is preparing his own tables in an effort to demonstrate how the tax would operate. There was a hullabaloo late last week when the House was asked to consider the bill under a gag rule. 1300-1500 But Rep. Gene Cox (D.

I know it was difficult for the committee to put it together.

Rep. Jerry Voorhis (D. Cal) ex-| claimed that the House was given | the gag rule “upon the excuse that | nobody can understand the bill.” Finally even Rep. Allan Treadwa (R.
