Secretary of the Treasury Douglas Dillon told the Joint Senate House Economic Committee that under withholding for 1964 is far less burdensome than feared. Treasury specialists now estimate extra payments of 400 to 500 million dollars will be needed, not the 1 billion plus previously projected. He added the liabilities should not majorly impede the economy and many taxpayers will face higher than expected taxes.
