Illia Prescribes Bitter Medicine For Argentina
President Arturo Illia's 1966 budget imposes 15 percent wage guides and new levies to curb inflation. Tax hikes include 10 percent excise on whisky and 25 percent surtax on soft drinks plus a 50,000 peso passport duty. Critics say the plan worsens a $597 million red ink and fails to cut state burdens. Argentina faces oil shortages and rising living costs as YPF struggles to meet demand.
