«Income Taxes Arm Sure To Rise
- ,.,,,. After *" unprecedented spending spree which included
v bUhons for the armed forces and more billions for President
j' Johnson's "Great Society" program tfie Federal delkit for
; the 1968-1969 fiscal year will hover >n the neighborhood of
- 530 billion.
j. . . Even to Congress, conditioned to tle.)J in astronomical
•J figures, this is breath-taking Such a deficit is bound to bieeil
- inflation, and economists and many responsible politician
; agree that something must be done about the situation
I The thinking in Congress is that if income taxes are fa
- be raised they should be raised this year Next year is the
: year of Ul^ presidential election and the Democrats, cer
I tainly, a» unlikely to put off income tax boosts until then
At this point it appears that President Johnson's roc
i omtnenoatlon fof a six percent surtax on top of taxpayers
; present Income tax won't be enough The tax boost, when It
* coines is likely to be far larger.
^ i. t ^ Washington onJy a few voices are raised against
I therBpending of millions and millions of dollars which create
, tt£ideficit _ „ . [) v-
3 * ' fc #8at paitf'tff Mr. JohmanS "GS-eat Society" projects
; could be deferred at least until after the war in Vietnam is
- fiTCf. A gdod many of them could be cancelled forever with
Out any serious* harm to the nation.
'&•- ii A^serioUR inflation would, of course, be more harmful
j*»- Ainericans than an Increase in their income taxes, but
r.both inflation and income ta* boosts could be avoided if the
^ Johheon admtnistraUon would dettioHstrate financial com
. Bton sense.
x' This is not a presidential year but it is an election
l year, and there is reason to hope that the voters will register
i their displeasure by getting rid of congressmen and U S
;• senators who just won't economize
£ The Great White Father is a spender's spender In true
- Texas style he Is lavish in doling out money for all manner
s of schemes for his "Great Society "
Somewhere, somehow, the word "economy" does not
to be part of his personal lexicon Unfortunately for
