Drastic Anti-Inflation Proposals Considered in Congress
Washington May 8 A set of new anti inflation ideas surfaced as Treasury asked Congress to cut personal income tax exemptions. Morgen Thau proposed lowering single exemptions from 750 to 600 head of family from 1500 to 1200 and dependents from 400 to 300. The move would raise about 1.1 billion yearly and hints at a sales tax if exemptions are cut. Some leaders prefer exemptions cuts over a sales tax, while others oppose major decisions today.
