Fears Rise In Pension Levies
Washington March 30. Arrow Altmeyer chairman of the Social Security Board told the House Ways and Means committee that postponing scheduled increases in old age pension taxes would force sharp rises later or shift costs to general taxpayers. He supported deferring payroll tax increases to 1943 and urged eventual use of general revenues to fund pensions. If two percent rises on employers' payrolls and employees' wages are passed, benefit costs would reach beyond current tax collections by 1942.
