Caria of Ravenna discussed the New Deal’s aims of economic and political freedom, and internal revenue collector Carl Moore spoke for Senator Ratkiey on unemployment relief efforts and shorter work hours through mechanization.

Taxing government workers would not drain revenue

Boake Carter commentary argues against believing government employees escape income tax. It cites 1936 figures: 829,794 federal workers, 290,796 state staff, 2,105,745 municipal payrolls, with average wages of $1421, $1186, and $1454 respectively. Federal and state workers pay their taxes, yet many zones avoid double taxation only through exemptions. The piece estimates potential revenue from taxing these groups and urges Congress to standardize tax treatment, warning against false savings from exemptions.
