Clement Introduces Senate Bill on Taxing Most Everything
Senator Clement proposes a gross income tax on businesses including films, beverages, packing houses, newspapers, utilities, railroads, banks, and several dozen others. The bill would levy one half of one percent on gross income, with a $1900 annual exemption, aiming to raise about 6.5 million dollars annually from manufactured goods in 1929. He says the measure would fund schools and institutions adequately, though not as a full revenue act.
