Congress Awaits Roosevelt Tax Message as Spending Debate Grows
Congress opened amid a spending battle as Roosevelt prepared a 786 million dollar tax message and the Treasury launched a 1.809 billion financing operation. The loan would push the gross debt to a new peak of 31.3 billion on April 15, with administration cash figures affecting the net debt. The Chamber of Commerce and the National Economy League urged retrenchment, criticizing taxation as supporting a “soak the poor” policy. The president’s message, likely by Tuesday, would cover farm program costs, AAA tax losses, and part of bonus payments. The session, already midcourse, faces taxes and relief as key battles ahead.
