Revisions Proposed In Security Bill
Drastic changes to the Economic Security Bill were proposed as the House Ways and Means Committee prepared for showdown votes. Proposals include shifting social taxes and narrowing the omnibus, cutting the graduated tax on old age benefits, and delaying tax effects by another year. Conservatives fear higher payroll taxes would slow business and drag the economy, with payrolls taxed 3 percent in 1938 rising to 9 percent by 1953, changing $700,060,000 in 1938 to about $2,000,009,900 in 1945. The committee margins also cut voluntary annuities while keeping the option for average workers intact.
