Muskies tax reform calls for wealthier reform to raise billions
Senator Edmund Muskie urged sweeping revisions to tax laws to curb wealthier tax avoidance. He proposed 24 changes to raise about 180 billion dollars annually by 1976, targeting gains taxes, death taxes, depreciation and credits, with five measures likely hitting middle income taxpayers. House Ways and Means Chairman Mills acknowledged reform this year but with far smaller revenue impact.

He cites racial overtones in aide distribution, noting high shares among Navy Filipinos, Marine Black, Air Force Black, and Army Black personnel, and argues aides are assigned more by rank than need.

The plan would add about 163 million in new revenue, with western lines receiving 120 million and southern lines 43 million, claiming costs rose far beyond current rates.
