No “Quickie” Tax
Increase Possible
WASHINGTON, (/P)—‘The pros
pect of any “quickie” tax increase
this spring has vanished.
Republicans said a decision the
House ways and means committee
reached last week also doomed
President Truman’s proposal for
a two-package approach to raising
the $16,500,000,000 he asked to
meet mounting military costs.
Chairman Doughton (D.-N. C.)
announced after an hour-long
closed session of the committee
that its current tax hearings will
cover all revenue raising sugges
tions made by Secretary of the
Treasury Snyder, and any other
proposals that members of the
committee desire to bring up.
Only after those hearings are
completed, he said, will be com
mittee decide whether to proceed
with a two-package or one-pack
age bill.
Mr. Truman and Secy. Snyder
urged Congress to pass as quickly
as possible a bill to raise taxes
slightly more than ten billion dol
lars a year, dating it back to Jan.
1, and then to consider in more
leisurely fashion still another.

Wage Parley Again

day night, a formula that would
limit group wage and salary in
creases to 10 per cent between
Jan. 15, 1950 and next July 1.
This would allow auto workers
to get a scheduled “cost of living”
wage raise March 1, but not there
after. It would not permit any
raises for most workers in steel,
coal, aluminum, cotton textiles,
and cotton garments. On the other
hand, the great majority of Amer
ican workers have not received
10 per cent since the start of 1950,
and government officials said
about half of them have not had
any raise at all.
Johnson, as he studied the wage
formula, had the power to sign or
not to sign, or to change the for
mula and then sign. He was ex
pected to ponder the matter for a
few days before acting. Meantime,
in order to stay on the job, he
cancelled a speech he was to have
made Saturday night in Portland,
Ore.
