Cut In Income Taxes Goes In Effect Dec. 31 Excess Profits Tax f Also Lapses; Social Security Tax Boost / WASHINGTON VP —A 13 jwar trend of steadily rining direct and indirect federal taxation will end thia week—or, will it merely be interrupted? That question win remain unanswered for soone time. Approximately SO-mlUtoa personal income tax payer* win get a 10 per cent annual reduction after midnight, Dec. 31. Simultaneously the excess profits tax on corporations will lapse. Some 10-milUan lower brackettaxpayers wilt be less fortunate. They are mostly those whose wet income does not make them liable to any payment to. the treasury or whose tax liability is only a few dollars. They do pay social security taxes, however, and those rates are scheduled on Jan. 1 to increase on employe and employer alrke from 1% per cent to 2 percent. Tax relief for this latter group is not likely in 1954 unless congress does some trimming among the excise and special taxes which are levied on a long list of articles" ranging from furs and jewelry to theater admissions. Corporations may get another tax J»reak June 30, 1954[if all or part ofc a scheduled corporate income tax reduction is permitted to take effect, ft would reduce the regular corporate rate from 52 to 47 per cent. The United States tax trend had been steadily down after World War I until the degression year of 1930 when congress levied a series of excise taxes on a large variety of items. These generally have ben continued and increased through the years. Incom* taxes began to go up In 1932 and continued through the Roosevelt years. Individuals paid a mere >1,095,000,000 ipeome tax in the boom time fiscal year 1929. Corporations paid 11,235,000,000. By fiscal 1933 when Franklin D. Roosevelt took office, the individual income tax payments bad slumped to >352,754,000 and corporations were liable ter only >304,218,000. j Improving business conditions and higher tax rates combtoed steadily to increase the treasury’s take all income tax sources and enormously to raise the rates at which income was taxed, The Republican 80th congress cut taxes but the general trend since 1330 has been up. Editorial research reports is authority for the statement that in boom time 1929 only 495,515 persons bad to fil< personal Income tax returns and, of these, only 263,768 bad taxable income to report. \ For fiscal 1954 ending next June 39, the treasury will expect approximately 69-million income tax. retujrns Showing a not tax liability fit nearly 35-billion dollars. Corporations will pay about 22H billiondollars.
