Commis~ sioned officers would be given three years, without interest or penalty, to pay accumulated taxes on their salaries, All veterans would get three years to pay any taxes on civilian income due at the time they entered service.

Truman Plan Rejected The senate committee rejected the administration-proposed, house~ approved plan to cut excise taxes back to 1942 levels next July. This would have applied to such items as cosmetics, furs, jewelry, luggage, railroad tickets and theater admissiohs, It was estimated it would save consumers at least $535,000,000 in the last six months of 1846,

This includes $75 *“normal” tax based on 3 per cent of $2500 after taking a $500 personal exemption. He would get credit for dependents—$500 each or a total of $2000—in figuring the sur« tax. Figured at 20 per cent on the Smsining $1000 would amount to 200. The senate committee bill would cut his tax to $190. He would get credit for dependents in figuring the normal tax, as well as the surtax. That would cut his total taxable income in either case to $1200. e three per cent normal tax on $1000 would be $30. The surtax rate would be cut from 20 to 17 per cent. The surtax then would be $170. Forgiving five per cent of the resulting lability would bring it down $10 more to a total tax payment of $190.
