on sooalled normal profits from
45 to 50 per cent.
The OOP policy committee ap-
proved the substitute yesterday
and claimed it would produce more
revenue than the administration
bill sent to the House by tta ways
and means committee.
The administration bill would
apply the 75 per cent tax rate to
corporate profits which exceed 55
per cent of the 1944-1940 average
computed on the basis of a tax-
payers best three of those four
years. It does not call for any in-
creases tn normal or surtax in-

There was a possibility, however,
that ths final vote might be put off
until tomorrow
Its chances for final enactment,
once dim. were brightened by in-
ternational developments making
it obvious that no end ia in sight
to vast defense spending. The ad-
ministration renewed a drive to
swell the amount it will bring In
Before the final vote that will
send it to the Senate, the bill faces
a drive by Republicans to substi-
tute their own version of heavier
business taxes
The Republicans are backing a
bill to impose a milder excess pro-
fits levy coupled with a 5 per cent
hike In the maximum corporate
income tax rate. They propose a

cedures. Observers do not expect
