Treasury Prepares for Withholding Tax Increase in Oct
The Treasury plans to start higher income tax withholding from Oct 1 despite a probable two week delay in enacting a $4.508 billion war tax bill. Senate action pushes the bill back to the House for conference, with Mills predicting no final action before mid September. The plan raises individual withholding from 15 to 18 percent and corporate taxes to 45 percent, aiming to fund war costs and curb inflation.
