Harriman Opposes Tax Concessions to Lure Industry
Governor-elect Averell Harriman said he would oppose tax reductions to attract new industry, calling such concessions creeping socialism. Speaking to about 60 Hudson Valley business leaders, he argued every industry should pay its own taxes and warned against shifting the burden. He outlined an economic survey plan and discussed unemployment in five cities, promising study of a state sponsored construction development program if approved by the Legislature.
