Senate Asked To Add 3 Billion To Tax Increase
Washington headquarters report that the Truman administration urged the Senate Finance Committee to raise about 3.0 billion dollars more in taxes, lifting the total to roughly 10.0 billion, primarily from individual income and excise taxes to avert red ink and curb inflation. Snyder outlined gains from higher rates on income and excises, with a broader push for closing loopholes and limiting special privileges in several industries. The Treasury also moved to deficit financing, issuing 91 day securities to raise about 1.0 billion dollars as cash on hand stands at over 7.0 billion.
