Hodges Calls For Reduction In Taxes To Spur Economy
Commerce Secretary Luther Hodges urged a federal income tax cut to boost consumer buying power and business investment. He warned 1963 may be slower than 1962 but said a timely tax cut could spark long term growth and rising prosperity. Estimates of 1962 GDP showed a 7 percent rise to about $554 billion with ongoing defense and road spending. He noted unemployment remained high and investment weaker, urging action to stimulate private growth.
