California economy may improve by mid 1972 says council
The Economic Advisory Council of the California Chamber of Commerce says measurable improvement in the state economy could occur before mid 1972 if Nixon's wage-price freeze is temporary. Consumer confidence will not rise substantially in 1971, and consolidation is needed before higher spending. An improved consumer mood is expected by mid 1972, with wage freezes and a 10 percent import tax likely to dampen the year’s outlook. The wage freeze could cut California wages in 1971 by 300 to 600 million dollars from prior forecasts.

Democrats propose income tax surcharge as alternative to sales tax
In Sacramento Democratic leaders seek a 1 percent tax on taxable income to replace a proposed 1 cent sales tax hike. They say Reagan has not rejected nor accepted the plan, which would raise about $600 million yearly and cut property taxes for homeowners while offering renter relief and tax credits. The plan shifts revenue via payroll withholding, closes loopholes, and funds school and budget needs.
