With the resolution's supporters united in opposition, the Senate voted 70 to 15 against an amendment to tack the principles of the Atlantic charter onto the document, then turned down another amendment 54 to 28.

Vinson declared the present spending spree for luxuries called for sharply increased excises on non-essentials. He cited increases in expenditures such as 104 per cent for furs as between months of 1943 and 1942, 65 per cent for coats and suits, 31 per cent for negligees, 30 per cent for cabarets, theaters and entertainment, 27 per cent in eating and drinking places and 30 per cent more for flowers as examples of luxury spending. National income for 1944 will be about $157,000,000,000, Vinson said. Consumer goods and services will amount to $90,000,000,000.
