Pay-as-You-Go Tax Favored by USCC
The United States Chamber of Commerce proposed a pay-as-you-go income tax plan deferring 1942 liabilities until after the war and delaying rate increases. Ellsworth Alvord told the Ways and Means Committee that 1943 taxes would be collected with a 20 percent withholding to cover the six percent tax plus a 13 percent bracket and five percent victory tax. He urged against canceling 1942 liabilities but urged deferment as a wartime substitute for higher rates, proposing five to ten year repayment after hostilities with potential early payment discounts.
