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.
