A $3,000 annual earner saw taxes rise from 1940 levels to 1952, with increases tied to revised brackets and credits, while a $15,000 earner faced even larger percentage boosts. The piece explains how the tax bite reflects percentage of income versus percentage points and notes 1953 projections. A note on a 4 ship channel project in the Orinoco Basin is included.
