Government tightens defense measures and tax steps
The Nation Today details how the defense program reshapes economics. Higher income and corporate taxes start Oct 1 to fund armaments and curb inflation. Home purchases require larger down payments, quicker payoff, and car and appliance buying tightens. Manufacturers must cut inventories, prioritize defense orders, and shift resources to essential steel, rubber, and metals. Policy steps aim to keep materials for armaments while exploring rent controls and wage policies. Concurrently, Boonsboro marks its 200th anniversary with a Trinity Evangelical service led by Hood College president.
