Ford Motor Company Could Become Widely Held Under Tax Bill
General Counsel Robert H. Jackson told the Senate Finance Committee that the Ford Motor Company, now a family enterprise, could pass to investors through inheritance levies in the administration’s tax bill. He argued the change would convert a family industry into a broadly owned enterprise and let the public share in future earnings built by public patronage. He criticized the rising tax burden on the poor and stated the penny bill aims to reverse that trend.
