Debt Moratorium Proposed to Help Taxpayers
Washington experts floated a general debt moratorium to assist home owners in paying taxes as the new fiscal year opens with a war budget of about 77 billion dollars. Randoph E Paul suggested relief ideas while a House Ways and Means panel weighs a six billion dollar tax bill.
