Surcharge in Doubt Hurts Ford Tax Plan Prospects
Washington (UPI) A faulty PR job on Ford's 5 percent income tax surcharge clouds its passage this year a top admin adviser said. William Seidman noted the surcharge may gain better reception once the public understands its cost. He also said Ford could seek a ceiling on imports if voluntary cuts fail to reduce petroleum deliveries by a million barrels daily as aimed. The U.S. now imports about 46 million barrels per day. On the budget, the administration hopes to meet the 300 billion dollar or under target for 1975 but it is not guaranteed.
