TAXING THE WEALTHY
MR. ROOSEVELT’S BILL PASSED BY THE HOUSE SENATE PASSAGE DIFFH'I I.T Received Aug. 6, 5.5 p.m. WASHINGTON, Aug. ... Mr. Roosevelt’s Tax Bill, designed to raise about 275,000,0(10 dollars additional revenue annually through heavy taxes on large incomes and assessments on gifts and inheritances, was passed by the House of Representatives by 282 votes tn 96 to-day, with only JS Democrats deserting the administration. The passage of the Bill through the Senate will probably be more difficult, however, with the Republican minority prepared to attempt to defeat the aim of the measure through amendments.
