Tax Fight Seen In House Group WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. <UU) A contest was shaping in th? 1 iousc ways and means commit1 tee today over the politically touchy issue of applying tax rcj lief to low income brackets. Some committee members. | notably on the Republican side, I ,vtn cool to Secretary of the i i'reasury Fred M. Vinson’s pro- | posal that individual tax lelief lie given through repeal of the three per cent normal tax next year. Submitting the administration’s postwar transition tax to the committee yesterday, Vinson said repeal of the noimal tax would relieve about 12,061,000 of those now .subject to income u.xes from all tax liability. The normal tax, an outgrowth of the wartime victory tax. imposes a three per cent levy on income in excess of $500 and allows 110 exemptions for dependents. R.'p. Harold Knutson of Minnesota, tanking Republican committee member, commented that Vinson’s proposal for repeal of the excess profits tax was “about the only crumb of comfort" for taxpayers. He asserted the Rejtiblican members would continue pressing for a 20 per cent cut in all brackets.

on strike and more scheduled to join their xanks, represexxtatives of the union and 11 major producers debated acceptance of the government proposal offered last xnidnight by Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach. Schwellenbach gave them until 4 p. m. (EST) today to ac-
cept.
Pending final arbitration, Schwellenbach asked the union to return to work and the companies to resume operations. He asked the companies to return to a 40-hour work week as soon as manpower permits and to raise basic pay rates 15 per cent when the 40 hour week is established. Pointing out that the union had not yielded on its 30 per cent demand in a week of talks while the companies refused to xaise their 15 per cent pay increase offer, Schwellenbach urged that the parties accept an arbitrator of his choosing to adjust tile difference between their
demand and offer.
He specified that the arbitiator’s decision shall become effective on the date that eacn com-
pany returns to a 40-hour week , and that it should be handed Wjmmm
down not later than Dec. 1. Any
company which arrives at an .
agreement by collective bargaining with the union may withdraw fiom the arbitration. Schwellenbach said the strike must be settled because continued loss of production would
