Richest Pay No U S Taxes Says F D R
Washington July 31 President Roosevelt said 58 of the richest Americans paid no federal tax in 1932 on 37 percent of their income. He dubbed them the thriftiest people and blamed tax exempt securities. He urged taxing government bonds. Noel Sargent of NAM opposed the graduated corporate tax before Senate Finance. House Ways and Means reported an estimated $270 million annual revenue. Chairman Doughton planned to bring the bill to the floor soon. Roosevelt defended thrift and cited 197 family trusts reducing estate taxes, noting dissenting Supreme Court opinions on gifts untaxable. He said further talks with state and local authorities on taxes would follow.
