House Opposes Budget Idea From M S Eccles
Speaker Bankhead indicated the house opposes the proposed plan by Marriner Eccles to balance the budget with higher income and profit taxes if needed. Republican Rep. Treadway voiced complete variance with Eccles, urging first a reduction in government spending to avoid burdening the least able to pay. Wall Street bankers and economists backed the goal but questioned the method, arguing taxation should not hurt the unemployed and destitute while preventing monetary inflation.
