The program calls for a six-mon th extension of the excess profits tax now due to expire June 30: indefinite postponement of the cuts in excise and corporation income tax rates which are due next April 1; allowing personal income taxes to drop 10 percent Jan. 1 as sche duled; and pegging Social Security payroll taxes at the present 1H per cent instead of letting them go up to 2 per-cent next year. SUPPORT PLEDGED High-ranking Republican and Democratic leaders of Congress pledged thCir support of his pro posals.

High-ranking Republicans and Democrat's of both houses pledged their support of his five-point tax program, which would add about $1,000,000,000 to the government's income during the 1954 fiscal year. But there were rumblings of re volt from many rank and file mem bers of the President’s own party, who feel they are politically com mitted to early tax relief. The dis appointed GOP lawmakers drfew little comfort from Mr. Eisenhow er’s statement that he is willing to let a 10 per cent cut In per sonal income taxes take effect Jan. 1, as scheduled under present law..; The consensus was that Mr. Els- S enhower’s proposals for extension of the excess profits tax and post ponement of scheduled drppe in corporation and excise taxes wiß encounter mighty tough sledding in I the house, where all members are ' up for reelection next year.
