War Tariff Measure Hits Incomes Acrossland

Washington faces sweeping revenue changes as a war tariff bill aims to raise about 1 billion dollars. Exemption limits drop to 1600 for single individuals and 2000 for married couples, with new rates of 2 to 10 percent across earnings and items from tobacco to jewelry. Tax brackets shift, estate duties rise, and spirits taxes increase while some goods retain free lists subject to new fees. The bill seeks to fund wartime expenditures through broad, sectional taxation and added duties.
