Newspaper Page TextNeuberger Urges Higher Gas Taxes, Postal Kate Mike ! Washington-fUPB-Sen. Rich ard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) urged Congress today to face cold war realities and boost taxes and postal rates by al most $3 billion a year. His four proposals includ ed President Eisenhower's re quests for highway fuel tax and postal rate increases and two of Neuberger's own. These would hit corporations by restoring the wartime ex cess profits tax "and cutting the oil-gas depletion allow ance from 27V& to 15 per cent. Not Easy Program "This is not an easy pro gram," Neuberger said in a prepared Senate speech. "It holds out no illusions that the way ahead is strewn with rose petals. It asks sacrifices of the high, the low and the in-between. "It recognized the grim fact that we are engeged in a cold war with a mighty colossus, the Soviet Union, and that the survival of the free world may .depend upon our capac ity for sacrifice and unselfish service." Neuberger said the Ameri can people will "respond af firmatively" if they are "told the truth." His four bills would pro vide this revenue: -S724,000,000 in fiscal 1960 from a IV2 cents a gallon in crease in the tax on gasoline, diesel fuel and special fuels. Similar Bills Offered -$325,000,000 by lowering the depletion allowance for oil and gas to 15 per cent. Similar bills have been of fered by others. 5325,000,000 by letting the Post Office De partment set fair postal rates, subject to Congressional and Presidential veto. -$1,600,000,000 by reinstat ing the excess-profits tax of 1950. Neuberger said this esti mate was hazy and represent ed the amount derived in 1953, the last prior year of operation. -s v i. t 2, ,SV' 's 4 24 v t??y" V;M?4ct i -ks the Best of the Best Bargains for You ...Their Friends and rnd Total of Over 150 Years of Serving You!
