No taxes will be repealed this year
Herbert W. Walker reports that Republican members of the house ways and means committee tentatively agreed no taxes can be repealed before January 1, 1922. The plan would let 1922 business and wealthy individuals pay excess profits and high surtaxes on 1921 profits, with repeal and rate cuts delayed to 1921 as a revenue need. Mondell says delaying repeal could improve the fiscal outlook and avoid new taxes to cover losses from future reforms.
