Newspaper Page TextV Saturday, April 23, 1932 World War Deficit Towers Over i Present One But Uncle Sam Now V , , Faces a Much Bigger Problem By" Frank I. Wellrr 1 WASHINGTON fl) The United States,, which erased the stupendous World war deficit with a figurative snap of the finger almost as the laHt rifle cracked now finds Itself harassed, and burdened by an im pending deficit lefcs than hulf the size. ThV deficit, however, comes in the face of depression's inroads on tax revenues, and it is' the first: great peace-time deficiency. President Hoc'f.'r ha:( e&.imated . that at the present rate of revenue this government will have a deficit of approximately $4,500,000,000 at the end of the 1033 fiscal year ac cumulated in 1030-31, 1031-33 and 1032-33. Congressional plans for tax increases would erase or cut this deficit considerably. Treasury records of receipts and expenditures since 1791 show that the present estimate of 84,500,000,000 has been surpassed only by deficits of $9,611,482,739 in 1910 and $14, 297,760,281 in 1919. It exceeds the Civil war deficit by 53.500,000,000 and towers out of sight of the next highest peace-time deficit $89,423,387 In 1909. From present Indications it- is go ing to be the hardest deficit in history to meet. A prosperous and victorious na tter, resented little congress' impo sition of tho highest taxes Jt hud ever known to balance the budget within 1 three years of thja World war's termination. Fatriotism was rampant. The def icit was expected. Americans looked upon the tax burden as one of their own making. They had grown ac customed to luxury taxes, war taxes, excess profits taxes and an income tax basis which touched almost every wage earner. The revenue from customs began mounting again as Europe turned from war. to work, and tho United Elates enjoyed an extremely favor able balance of international trade. Liquor taxes were bringing in mil lions in revenue ?483. 000.000 in 1919 ccmpared with $11,000,000 last year and the personal income and cor poration taxes netted $5,400,000,000 in 1920 compared with $1,800,000,000 in 1931 and an estimated $1,000,000. 000 for 1932 unless the rates are advanced. . Now, after 14 yearo of peace and V 12 years with a comfortable surplus in the treasury, congress suddenly Is faced with the necessity of boost ing taxes again. , ' 1 This time it cannot impose a war profits tax of 80 per cent or many ether taxes Justified by nrmed strife. It is on what earning power la left that budget balancing depends. Cur rent tax bills propose to bring in comes hitherto considered too small to tax into assessment and to stop up the rate of taxation in the higher brackets which have failed to pay customary revenue because of de clining business. Thero is an effort to place covpo lation. Inheritance, estate and gift taxes and surtaxes higher than the war basis. Tho cry of "soak the rich" io raised against the current mr-iRin-.o hprmiRT' of these nionosals. Tho tax bill still has a long road I to travel, but it generally is con ceded that the fjnnl form will paral lel in many instance: the war-iwc-nuo bills There are fewer sources now than . then, and the percaplta circulation cf money 1h low. It will take a drastic bill to produce rosults. ? S S S $ s $ $ PERRY PERSONALS 5 Ily Wllda O'Nell' (Observer Correspondent) PERRY (Special) Mr. and Mrs. Dob Haucks, who spent the winter in Dixie.
