NEW DEALERS —
FIGHT NEW TAX
REVISION PLAN
: By CLEM ‘WHITAKER
There are,
today, in addition to Republicans and
Democrats, Protestants, Catholics
and Jews, two widely separated political economic groups—to wit, these
who still believe in individual initfative, and those who believe in a
government controlled economy.
That, at first glance, may seem to
be an unfair and artificial division,
but actually it is not, and post ‘war
problems will shortly make the line
of demarcation exceedingly clear.
The show down in fact, will come
in the very near future over the
recommendations of the Committee
for Economic Development, a group
of far sighted, but hard boiled business men,.which has juat _filed its
findings with congress.
This committee, headed by Paul
‘baker Corporation, makes blunt. acknowledgment of the fact that during the ten years of the Hoover. Roosevelt depression the nation had
eight or nine million unemployed, despité the muiti billion dollar pumppriming experiment of the New
Deal, and that high level’ employ= ment was achieved only when the
country went to war. It makes no attempt to fix the blame for. this misadvaneture, but it makes
recommendations .for the future
which every American who wants the
Dgtion returned to. solid
ground certainly should consider.
Taxation, says this committee,
should be used to raise revenues, hot
to punish any gropp in the community. And it therefore . recommends
the abolition of all New Deal created
taxes which are designed as punitive
measurés against business, but it
also. urges an end to all taxes which
put a halter on. indvidual
_. Power—such ag federal.excise and
‘sales taxes. tf
The present income les rate: of
23 per cent for the. lower bracket
would be replaced ‘by a single standard rate of 16 to 20 per cent, under
the new setup. The maximum income tax rate, now. ‘94 per cent above
would be 73 per cent. Most important of all the committee’s’ recommendations would éliminate the discriminatory double tax. on the corporate. stockholders income.
visions which would still provide the
government with three times as much
as it received in any ‘pre war year, . .
the committee declares that its main
Durpose is to take the heat oft. legitimate business, and that. its Jprogram would provide ten million. more
jobs after the war than America
ever provided in “pre War years,
Honest, private employment this
the primary objectives of any sound
@overnment—and most American
citizens will agree with that premise,
Primarily, says the committee, its
recommendations would “instill jus}tifiable. confidence’ in theintegrity . .
of the government the soundness of . '
the dolld¥, and the‘safety of the federal governbent.’”

NAVY YARD HAS.
9(TH BIRTHDAY
Mare Island Navy Yard was established. by Admiral Farragut 90 years
ago last Saturday.
The yard completed its first ship
‘@ wooden tug, in 1869. Since then
it has steadily grown and. diversified . }
its labors: Today, not only are ships
repaired at.Mare Island, ‘but maimed and suffering men from the battlés of the South Pacific find haven
and relief in the great hospital there.
With San -Francisco the principal
port of departure for the Pacific
theatre ofiwar Mare Island has become of inestimable, irreplacable importance. An ‘entire city revolves its
daily life around “the island.” ValRecommending a series of tax re-/ 1 lejo is today a city o{ naval personnel, of workers and their familias,
and.of thriving satellite enterprises.
Mare Island is:typical-of-all of the
pother great naval installations, ship
yards, hospitals and facilities in the
San Francisco bay area which draw
upon the resources and the wealth of
horthern and ‘central California to
_\eontribute the utmost to an Americ-’
an victory ‘in the Pacific.
