Fowler Says Tax Increase Still Doubtful
New York AP Secretary of the Treasury Henry H Fowler said the Johnson administration would consider a tax increase if inflation calls for it but no definite pattern exists. He spoke at the University of Connecticut Loeb Awards luncheon, replying to a suggestion by William McChesney Martin Jr. for a simple across the board increase. Fowler warned against over restraining the economy and urged caution while monitoring contingencies that might require action. He stressed keeping within the President's budget and warned that sustained demand could spark a 1967 inflationary spiral unless growth remains balanced. He argued a prudent tax increase could aid long term growth if uncertainties tilt unfavorably.
