Cut Unsafe At Present Says Truman
President Truman vetoed a 4 billion tax reduction bill, halting a tax cut this year. The House may override with a two thirds vote, while the Senate opposition remains. He called the plan unsafe and urged tax relief only when inflation and price stability improve. He urged a surplus to reduce the public debt and warned against acting while debt is high. The issue now moves to Congress with continued debate.
