Kerr Seeks Tax Exemptions to Save Billions in Revenue
Senator Robert Kerr argues increases in personal and dependent exemptions from 600 to 800 this year and to 1000 later would save taxpayers about 4.5 billion dollars. Senator Walter George backs the plan, saying it could boost consumer power and counter a looming recession. Kerr also criticizes Republican utility policies and supports the Oklahoma Municipal Power Producers Association as well as Interior Department talks on reorganizing the Muskogee and Anadarko Indian offices and cutting Indian hospitals and services.
