Reagan tax ceiling criticized over possible tax escape
Legislative Counsel George H. Murphy warns Reagan tax ceiling could let hundreds of wealthy couples avoid state income tax by exempting two tax preference items for those under an $8,000 joint income. Aides disputed the reading and minimized affected numbers. Pearl Williams in Compton is honored as the nation's oldest foster grandparent at 104 working as a foster grandparent for two mentally retarded children. The counsel notes that a joint return under $8,000 with tax preference items over $30,000 would owe no state tax on those items or on the under $8,000 income.
