PROTESTS PLAN FOR NEW LEVIES Those Who Haven't Had Pay Boosts Deny 'Excess Purchasing Power' Claim change through heavy new taxes the people would try to outbid each other for the available con sumer merchandise and cause inflationary price rises. Today, treasury experts ex plained that the "excess pur chasing power" which worries them exists only in the aggre gate, and may not be true of any particular citizen. Washington, Nov. 13 IIP) John Taxpayer and hundreds of his brothers who haven't had a pay raise in a long time poured protests into the treasury today against new tax proposals de signed to "mop up" excess pur chasing power. The treasury admitted get ting a "large number" of let ters from citizens who generally said "what's this excess purchas ing power? I haven't got any of it." Hard Problem Answers are going out that the treasury is "aware" of the problem of the many people who haven't shared directly in the defense boom, and is trying to work out some tax system that will be easier on them than on the other workers who are making lots more money. But, one official commented, "we can't make promises. It's a diffi cult nut to crack." The thing that started the in dignant flood of mail was a sta tistical survey by Dr. Carl Shoup of Columbia university, a part-time treasury adviser, which predicted that the people would have between $5,000,000, 000 and $8,000,000,000 of extra spending money next year, at a time when priorities and other factors would reduce sharply the supply of merchandise the people could buy. Shoup con cluded that unless the treasury soaked up some of this spare "Stopped Eating Things I Liked because of gas, sour stomach and heartburn. ADLERIKA relieves me. Now I eat anything I like." (J. M. Ark.) If spells of constipation upset YOU, try quick-acting ADLERIKA today. West Side Pharmacy. v V EASIER V NIFTIER V THRIFTIER by Greyhound Ride de luxe at low cost by Greyhound.
