| AND. THE WORST IS YET Io COME— If Taxes Make You Scream, This’ll Pull Your
By LYLE c. WILSON, United Press Staft Correspondent
— Taxes on United States
citizens are going higher than they ever have been
IL
It is possible that individual income earners, who will feel a new tax bite this week; will be socked later ‘with a new kind of tax, toughest of all That would be an excess income tax. It would work
corporations, All individual
income above the average over a stated past period of
years would be confiscated,
or near ‘it.
For instance: The base could be average income earned in ‘1946-49. The individual would pay regular + taxes on such an income if he continued to earn it. But if his income went higher, the rate would take just about
all of the excess.
- Congressional tax experts doubt the Treasury would support such painful levies. But they say the tax squeeze
is' going to 3 terrific and that the excess income tax should be mentioned among the possibilities. Taxpayers have had fair warning that the higher “rate charged against their pay checks this week is only a beginning of war ‘and rearmament increases. Secretary of Treasury John W. Snyder. said the other day that the average taxpayer ‘“has no notion” of the heavy burden he shortly will have to bear. President Truman told the nation in his Sept. 10 defense broadcast: that he wanted to “pay-as-we-go.”
These two powerful figures are Aalking about 10 years of rearmament and cold wa#. That is what we are heading into—and maybe a Hot war tg boot. But cold war and rearmamént alone will hoist taxes beyond all previous levels. -The individual and corporate tax hike voted by Congress recently is only the first nibble." It will increase government revenues by about * $4.7 billion, bringing the total on an annual basis well over $42 billion.

Sanitation ‘Board
Replies to Union
By DAVID WATSON The City “Sanitation Department today charged “distortion of facts” and “procrastination” in a letter addressed to leaders of the striking municipal employees union. Answering the union's Sept. 26 letter asking for negotiation meetings, the board sajd the former employees had failed to se forth’ their ifsues in writing and to name their representatives as requested by sanitation officials. The board charged the strikers were not made fully aware of demands made by the union in a pre-strike meeting Aug. 14. ; “Three Issues”
Nor were they informed correctly of Sanitation Board action on the demands, the letter said. It stated that three issues were involved and two of them were settled as policy matters. The third, a demand cents an hour wage could not be legally met,
