WASHINGTON, May 22.—The tax reduction bill wu passed last night by the Senate without a record vote. The measure provides for a total lash of $20-1.000,000 in the burden of the tax payers. In a desperate last minute drive Republicans succeeded in eliminating from tile bill the only important provision won by the Democrats during the long tax contest, the proposal for a gradual scale of lower rates on corporations with incomes of 115,000
and less.
This action was won on a tie vote after two roll calls, with Vice President Dawes deciding the issue. The elimination of the graduated scale provision clipped $2-1,000,000 from the total reduction provided by the measure, thus bringing the tax cut within range of the $200,000,000 limitation set by President Coolidgc and Secre-
tary Mellon.
Chairman Smoot of the Senate fiI nance committee, in charge of the
w-is bill, immediately asked that the Senw 11 at, ‘ a conference with the House
