Woodcock Proposes Auto Promotion Tax
UAW president Leonard Woodcock urged Congress to levy a heavy competition promotion tax on auto makers and other import competition guilty industries. He said profits run high while 16 percent of the domestic market is served by imports, worsening the balance of payments. The tax would target firms with five year profits 15 percent above average and foreign share of 10 percent, excluding firms like American Motors. Conversely, firms could lower tax by price cuts or pushing out imports. He also criticized Nixon budget moves as a reverse Robin Hood policy.
