Truman Asks Individual Tax Slash of S40 Offset Increased Levy On Corporations Suggested; No Chance, GOP Reply Ih his state of the union mes sage to Congress Wednesday, Pro!t!pnt Truman railed for an across the board tux cut of $-11) for every taxpayer plus an ac tional cut of $10 for every depen dent. To compensate for the loss of revenue, Mr. Truman asked for an increase in the tuxes on corporations, which, he declared, are well able to afford It. Just a year ago, on the same occasion, the president told Con gress: No tax cuts in 1947. Yes terday Mr. Truman proposed that the Congress cut income taxes so that there would be a reduction of $40 for every individual tax payer and $40 for each ot his de pendents. He called this a cost-of-living tax credit. The Presi dent gave as an example of w hat he had in mind the benefits to a man with a wife and two chil dren. His plan, he noted, would mean a $100 tax cut fur this man a saying, which could be used. as the President put it, to buy the necessities of lite. But then, continued Mr. Tru man, this tax cut -which would total three billion, 20 million dol lars, would have to be made up somewhere else to meet govern ment expenses. To take care of that, the President proposed that the corporations be compelled to pay higher taxi's on tneir proms. He said the corporations made what he called extraordinarily high profits of 17 billion riolars last year four and a half billion dollars more than they made 19-lti. So, he went on, it is proper to shift a larger share of the tax load to big business. It can well at lord to carry it. he said. Later on. added Mr. Truman, when things are better, when the inflation dangers are passed, taxes should be reduced right down tne line on everything and every body. Republicans Sneer Only the Democrats In the au dience applauded his tax propos als. And it appears from the im mediate reaction of the Republi can leaders, that Mr. TrumanS discussion merely was academic. They said quickly and bluntly: There isn't a chance that the President's tax bill w ill be passed. Cheap politics, they sneered at Mr. Truman's plan. Republican Representative Harold Knutson, who has his own bill to cut five andahalf billion dollars in in come taxes from the top to bot tom, said he would go ahead with his own bill. Knutson is in a good position to do that he Is chairman of the House Ways and Means comlttee, the commmittee which introduces tax legislation. Most of what the President ask ed for yesterday restated what he had asked before. He again called on Congress to pass the 10-point anti-inflation program he submitted to the re cent special session. "We must," he asserted, "deal effectively at once with the high cost ol living." As you know, the bulk of this program, which includes stand by controls for rationing, wages, I and prices, was turned down by the Republican leadership. Marshall Plan Urged The President also again ap pealed for quick Congressional apruva) of B six billion, SU) mil lion ikiiiar down-payment on the EuroiM'an recovery program The Marshall plan. Six billion. 800 million to be spent in 15 months, starting April first. He relerred to the Marshall plan as a decisive contribution to world peace. Mr. Truman made a sl'- ciul point of emphasizing his ad ministration a plan to acmeve peace. Three limes he repeated the phrase: "This leads to peace not war. And then there werp these ad ditional proposals from the Pres ident: An extension and strength ening of rent controls which un scheduled to die entirely aner February. An increase in the minimum wage from 40 to 75 cents an hour. Bigger and better social security benefit coverage. A national health program 11- nanced by compulsory insurance. Legislation to protect the civil rights of every individual. And as part of that program, state hood should be granted to Ha waii and Alaska. What does the Congress think of the President's message? Well, if applause is any criter ion, there is this to go on: Mr. Truman spoke steadily for 25 minutes before he was interrupt ed by any handclapping. "Politkallv hostile" is the way the dispatches described the Pres ident's Congressional audience. That is, the Republicans gener ally were hostile, although the Democrats, by and large, prais ed the Truman message. The word most used by the Re publicans in commenting on the speech was that it reeked of 1948 Presidential campaign politics. "A purely political docur""-' " said the House maiority le..-. . Charles Halleck. "designed to out allace-Wallace and hold for Mr. Truman the radical wine that controls the Democrat par ty." But then listen to the House Democrat leader, Sam Rayburn, of Texas: "It's a strong message that challenges the statesmanship ot Congress. It demonstrates clearly that President Trumin places tne wenaie oi me nauon aliove all else." Senator Robert Taft. of Ohio who wants the Republican nomi nation for president is saving his fire for the moment; he plans to answer Mr. Truman In a radio broadcast tonight. Press Comment Sees Politics In Truman Message My the Associated Press) President Truman's state of the Union message to Congress drew sharply arving reactions from the nation's press today. Comment ranged trom the Omaha t Neb. I World Heralds critical reception terming the message a "bland, undisguised plea for votes next Novemlier," to that of the New York Times which said the speech, in its broad setting, "is nopctul. hi'h pointing and essentially on the right track." The Times in a separate edi torial, however, took critical note of the president's tax plan, as serting that legislation aimed at its passage "might in all accu racy ami fairness be described as 'the voters' bonus bill of 19-lS." . . . The cruel fact Is that . . . such legislation would be thor oughly inllationary in character." vither editorial comments: St. Louis Globe IVmocrat Now that the third party giv haven to Reds and radicals, the president leels free to grap;il to his bosom most of the Nov Deal theories with new ardor and widen the cleavatre between the GOP and his own party, at least for the campaigns duration. New York Herald- Tribune (comparing the president's ami the (;nl''s proposals to combat inflation!-"Neither ease is con- vint'ine: there are flaws, or at best some pretty hazardous as sumptions in both." Kansas City Star "(Mr. Tru man I lelt the compulsion to make a bid for the left-wing vote that had sustained the Roosevelt ad ministration and was being en dangered by the appeal of Henry Wallace. But in so doing, he over played his hand and has held out promises that in no wise could be fullilled." season, does not seem quite as Im-1 pressive as Rosebuig's, with one win and two verv close losses. But Coquille has been playine some pretty sharp teams, and from all appearances the games Friday and Saturday at Roseburg should be close ones. Albert S.
