Explains Mellon tax plan and its effects in Congress
Congressman Cole writes in Timor-Republican about the Mellon plan to cut annual tax collections by about 223 million dollars. It proposes broad rate reductions, with low income thresholds, making married men pay less and taxing higher incomes at higher rates with rising surtaxes. The piece argues the plan is simple, fair, and not meant to favor the rich, while noting potential adjustments if a bonus is provided. Intermixed are obituaries and notices for Fred L. Ellsworth of Eldora, detailing birth, marriage, survivors, service, and a later card of thanks from the family.
