Editorial Critics Split Over Ford and Democratic Plans
The piece contrasts President Ford's tax cut formula with Democrats in Congress led by House Speaker Carl Albert. Albert opposes the administration plan, arguing it would deliver most cuts to the richest 17 percent and calls for substantial relief for middle and lower income groups. He also supports public service jobs to keep Americans employed.

Liberals redistributing wealth without creating it says Albert
The text argues taxes fund government programs and cites Albert’s proposal for a new federal agency to set price controls in some industries. It omits wage and federal tax influences and ignores federal debt as inflation drivers, claiming prosperity is needed for jobs and tax revenue.

U.S. Savings Bonds See Strong 1974 as Other Markets Falter
New York AP reports that the U.S. Savings Bonds program posted one of its best years in 1974 with total investments reaching 63.8 billion at the start of 1975, more than double the postwar level. Officials note 6 percent interest and payroll education programs as factors, while gold sales faltered. Fourth quarter sales reached 6.86 billion, the highest since 1945, despite inflation eroding real returns on Series E and H bonds. Security and tax deferral on Series E keep demand buoyant.

Farm land prices cool after surge in 1974
Washington AP report says super heated farm land prices cooled in late 1974 as buyers backed off. Average price per acre on Nov 1 rose 21 percent from a year earlier to $399, with 30 percent-plus gains in several states. Slower gains due to divergent income expectations, tight credit, high interest, and reduced demand for recreational land. Exports for first five months of the fiscal year totaled $8.53 billion, up 7 percent from 1973-74.
