How Shall We Pay for the War
A historical policy brief arguing for tax reform during wartime. It condemns retroactive taxes and excessive income rates, calls for an excess profits tax, and outlines a balanced plan limiting new taxes to 1.25 billion dollars, with revised income and whisky tobacco taxes and a strengthened stamp tax to fund the war without overburdening the poor. It emphasizes fairness, administrative feasibility, and economic stability as the conflict continues.
