Radical tax reform proposals to fund defense plan
Secretary McAdoo urged radical changes to the income tax to broaden the base and boost collection. He proposed lower exemptions to $3,000 for married and $2,000 for singles, higher collection force manpower, gross income reporting, and stop withholding at source. He warned extensive evasion and inaccurate returns cost the government far more than the needed field force to enforce the law.
