3 Senate Likely To Delay Cut In Income Tax
Poll Shows Margin Against House Bill
(How House Bill ‘Would Cut Taxes, See Tables on Page 15)
WASHINGTON, March 24 (U.
P.).—Prospects of a nip-and-tuck fight in" the senate today dimmed Republican hopes for speedy congressional passage of their bill to reduce personal income taxes. The house was expected to approve a bill calling for a 30 per cent cut in the lowest income brackets and a 20. per cent reduction in most others. But a leading Republican senator predicted it would be delayed in the senate until the Republicans could muster enough support to assure passage. * He said present indications were that the senate was dividefl 48.to 47 against the house bill. But with a little delay, he said, the RepubSara hope that protests from the _tax-conscious folks back home will win enough additional supporters to clinch passage.
Portal Pay Veto
Well - informed congressional quarters said President Truman was considering a veto of the portal pay legislation which both houses of congress approved by substantial majorities. Mr. Truman was said to fear that the measure, which outlaws $6 billion in back portal to portal pay claims, would rip the heart out of the wage-hour act and other federal labor statutes.
Strike Control Bill
Legal advisers to the house labor committee were putting finishing touches to a “fair but effective” strike-control bill which will be presented to the-members in executive session this. week. : Chairman Fred A. ‘Hartley (R. N. J.) said there Was a possibility that he and Chairman Robert A. Taft (R. 0.) of the senate labor committee would call on President Truman to see what types of reforms he would be likely to accept or veto.
OPA and Rent Control :
Senate banking subcommittee hopes to decide today on an agency to administer federal rent controls after OPA dies June 30. Indica-| tions were it would choose the commerce department. even though commerce says it doesn't want the Job. The subcommittee today called Housing Expediter Frank Creedon to a conference on the subject of whether his agency is qualified to undertake the rent control job. OPA's doom was sealed when President Truman signed a bill] terminating the agency June 30 and taking away $2 million of its pre-viously-authorized budget. Mr. Truman said he was confident congress planned lo extend rent and | sugar. rationing. The senate banking subcommittee on rents has recommended continuing rent controls until Feb. 29} 1948. Sugar rationing powers expire a week from today but legisjation is under way to extend them. Temporary Controls Director Philip Fleming said OPA’s remaining funds would carry the rent program safely through May 15— and maybe until June 1—with great economies. He said he would stretch them to the utmost.

ent labor boards -during the next fiscal year. A group of Republicans planned to offer an amendment. to eliminate ‘from the bill all of the $4,033,700 earmarked for the NLRB. They claimed the board had failed to
