Tax Cut Outlook Is Not Bright

Secretary of the Treasury Humphrey said no tax reductions are promised next year beyond the corporation excess profits and individual income taxes. He warned the federal budget cannot balance in fiscal 1955 without substantial cuts in defense outlays, noting a large deficit unless military spending is reduced. Officials indicated tax relief remains unlikely until a budget balance is seen, with possible continuation of the 52 percent corporate tax and resistance to net excise cuts. A separate Peoples Court case suspended a $100 fine for Joseph E. Brooks for intoxication and disorderly conduct.
