The 32.000,000 are those whose surtax net incomes, above exemptions, do not exceed $2000. (The House had voted to make surtax exemptions apply to normal tax, and had cut 4 percentage points off each surtax rate. In addition, it had stipulated that each taxpayer was to get a minimum reduction in his tax of 10 per cent, a provision that would have helped high-bracket taxpayers).

The experts added that from $2000 of surtax net income, to an undetermined point, possibly 000, $30,000 or $40,000, the Senate bill would give more relief than the House bill. Above that level, tne House bill would reduce the tax more. The rommit.tee wilL meet, aeain C0U1Q not De turned over to tne Senate for action before Wed- nesday.

Pfc. Joseph R. M. Deveault, driver of the bus, was sentenced to be dishonorably discharged, to forfeit all pay and allowances and to serve two years at hard labor. The court martial after deliberating more than five hours found Deveault guilty of driving to endanger and involuntary manslaughter through negligence.

Under Army procedure, the verdict and sentence is subject to review by authorities at the First Service Command and the War Department. Deveault testified that he "blacked out" while driving the loaded bus and did not know what happened.
