He opposed sweeping tax increases and urged spreading costs over generations while allowing modest revenue boosts to adjust inequities. Senator Clark of Missouri agreed tax hikes are likely to prevent a financial crash, noting a looming lend lease deficit and the need for broad taxes to meet defense and aid costs.
