House Ways and Means Considers War Super Tax Plan
Washington reports the House Ways and Means Committee renewed discussion of President Hoosewelt s proposal to cut personal income exemptions and impose a war supertax. The plan would tax nets above 25 000 for individuals and 50 000 for families, with deductions for charitable contributions debt liquidation and existing taxes. Treasury Secretary Morgenthau withdrew from boosting the bill to administration levels without a sales tax, while the committee weighs the Treasury backed supertax against other revenue ideas.
