Roosevelt Hikes Taxes Seen Necessary to Balance Budget
Washington January 6 The Democratic drive to raise income taxes on incomes under 61000 and cut exemptions faced opposition in Congress. Speaker Garner warned the plan may fail in the house. Roosevelt and leaders in New York conferred on a budget balancing program calling for higher taxes, a 32 percent beer levy, gasoline tax continuation, and $100 million cut in Hoover era appropriations. The plan would tax 9 percent on incomes over 4000 and 4 percent on initial income, with exemptions reduced from 2600 to 2000 for married filers and 500 to 1000 for singles. Roosevelt chaired the meeting and spoke with reporters after.
