Simple tax bill signed by president
Washington May 0 The annual tax reform act signed by President Roosevelt relieves 30 million taxpayers from further computations and reshuffles wartime tax structures. It eliminates the wartime victory tax and introduces withholding on wages starting next January 1, while maintaining most individual burdens. The bill, passed unanimously, applies to all 1064 income groups though payroll withholdings change for those earning under $5,000 and those above $8,000 remain required to file returns. The victory tax is repealed and the normal tax is set at 3 percent for the new scheme with deductions and exemptions adjusted.
