Excess Profits Tax Sparks Postwar Recovery Debate
Washington lawmakers heard Clinton Davidson of a private research group warn that a 90 percent excess profits tax could destroy corporations after the war. He urged a postwar recovery fund, funded by taxes over 80 percent of excess profits, to be returned to firms, while the treasury favors 70 percent with a rebate. Davidson projected large postwar unemployment and overproduction risks unless employment rises, noting potential cotton and milk surpluses. Senators debated inflation controls and a forced savings concept as a fairer approach than individual saving taxes, with Taft backing a compelling savings plan.
