CPEAKER JOHN N. GARNER quelled the house of representative tax rebels nnd assured the nation of tai legislation that would balnational ance the budget. The members ut both parties who had successfully opposed the sales tax provisions of the hill drafted by the ways and means committee promised to be good and support the new bill Introduced by the committee and as a the substitute for sales tax that had been defeated. It all came about when the speaker took the floor and delivered a speech that was a combination of tempered argument, Impassioned plot and camp meeting exhortation. As he whirled Into his peroration, an exalted house membership answered his appeal for those resolved to lead a new life to arise. En masse the congressmen surged to their feet and took the pledge to pass a tax mei.sure that will balance the budget. Then the house settled down to business. The ways and means committee Introduced Its list of new taxes to take the place of the defeated sales tax, and the various Rems were approved so rapidly that Acting Chairmen Crisp had to stop the offering of Items In order to give the engrossing clerks time to draw the various amendments. The new levies as provided for In the house bill covers taxes on the following articles with the estimated revenue: INCOME TAXES REVENUE Individual (Increases carried In hill) $ 112.(XX),(XX) Increase In normal rate Increase In surtaxes (wartime rates) Lowering surtax exemption from $10,lXK) to 5 $6, (XX) Corporate tax (12 to 13 as carried In hill) ..

The fact that the house has passed a revenue bill does not mean that this bill Is to be the law of the land. It Is almost certain that the senate will not agree. The senate committee Is very likely to substitute for the new provisions of the house bill the manufacturers sules tar that was rejected by the house, and pass the revenue bill In that form. Should It do so It will mean another fight In the house, then a long conference consideration, and there Is no prospect for an early adjournment of congress. Experienced members of both houses are now predicting that there will not be an agreement over a revenue bill earlier than September.
