Congress weighs sales tax expansion amid Treasury push
Washington March 11. W J Schieffelin of the New York state chamber urged Congress to adopt a graduated sales tax from 2 percent on food to 10 percent on other items, proposing total revenue of 4,000,000,000 and an extra 1,000,000,000 from higher individual and corporate taxes. Treasury officials warn a sales tax could be inequitable and inflationary while projections vary from 159,000,000 to 3,780,000,000. Tax collections in early March showed marked rise over last year, with totals reaching 222,348,510 through March 7 and a full-month forecast near 2,750,000,000.
