WHAT TAX CUT WOULD MEAN TO YOU
At the highest policy-making levels in Washington today,
serious debate is now going on about a tax cut for you and
me, as individual taxpayers - to give the current economic
advance a powerful new push and thereby to slash into job
lessness. It's still in the behind-closed-doors stage, hardly more
than a possibility. But in a Los Angeles speech a few days
ago, Dr. Walter Heller, chairman of the President's Council
of Economic Advisers, openly hinted at the debate, declared
an "eventual net tax reduction should not be ruled out."
Heller explained that there is considerable question whether
our tax levels as well as our tax structure are holding back
economic growth and employment, then added significantly,
"These are open, not closed, policy questions in Washington
today."
If an individual tax cut does coma on top of the pro
posed tax credit and liberalized depreciation schedules
for businessmen who spend money on plants and equip
ment, the impact on our economy would indeed be electri
fying. Billions of dollars of spending money would be left in
pay envelopes which now are being drained by withholding
of taxes throughout the year.
More billions of dollars of working capital would be left
In business cash registers which now are being emptied in
chunks by the U.S. tax collector.
The federal budget again would be way out of balance,
meaning the government would be pouring billions more
dollars into the economy than It is taking out in the form
Of t3X6S.
And the threat of new inflation, along with the quick
ened upswing and the dangerous distrust of the dollar's
stability among our creditors abroad, could become very real.
The last paragraph explains why an individual tax cut
Is only being explored now but since it is at least being ex
plored let's see what it would mean to you. The President
has asked Congress for stand-by authority to make tempo
rary tax cuts of up to 5 per cent across-the-board as a "safe
guard against recession," and while he's not going to get
the authority, the way Congress feels now, his request can
be the basis for an excellent illustration.
Here's what a 5-point tax cut would mean to a married
man with two children, assuming his deductions total 10
per cent: .

Tarh percentage point of tax reduction would increase
ennual take-home pay by $2 billion. A maximum 5 per cent
cut would swell the annual take-home financial pie by i
whopping $10 billion.
In the case of the $3,000-a-year man, a 5-point redue
ion would slash his tax debt by 25 per cent - although,
. as the table shows, it would leave only a few dollars ad
ditional in his wallet. In the case of the $250,000-a-year
man, the 5-point reduction would slash hit tax debt by 7
per cent, but, as the table also underlines, it would leave
thmitancU of dollar! extra in his wallet.
Rprause our tax levels are sc high and because they
train , murh moncv away from anybody who has an in
come, even seemingly minor percentage reductions add up

Tax cutting is the most powerful prosperity prop and
anti-recession weapon we have. The weapon is in our arsenal
.-for use as we need it.

Peculiarities of Senate Elevator
Service Turns West to Song Writing
By DICK WEST
Washington - WD - Monday
I had occasion to write some
thing about the peculiarities
of e 1 e vator
service in the
new Senate
Office build
ing. My frame
of re f erence
was the spe

provided for
s e n a tors so
that they can
summon an el
evator without waiting for it
to discharge the other passengers.
I pointed out that if a per
son boarded an elevator when
senatorial traffic was heavy,
he might be taken past his
floor several times before he
got a chance to get off.
A colleague who rides the
elevators daily told me that
he sometimes begins to won
der whether he will ever be
able to get off at all.
He suggested that a situa
tion could arise similar to that
related in a folk song that
became popular a couple of
years ago.
In the song, he recalled, a
subway fare increase caused

Guy S. - His life is peace
ful now. Why look for trouble?
Mr. A. S. - My children
can't believe a woman is sin
cere about me.
Guy S. - Well, meet a new
sucker - my dad. He's 65 and
has been a widower for 15
years, making his home witn
me and my family.
About six months ago, a 45-
year-old widow made her ap
pearance in our apartment
house. Somehow she made
Dad's acquaintance and, be
fore long, they were meeting
downstairs in front of the
building for long evening
strolls together. In warm
weather they join the kibit
zers of the neighborhood on
the side walk and it's disgust
ing to hear her call Clark for
Clark Gable. He eats it all
up. She has him thinking he's
35 again, and a lady-killer.
The truth is he look more
like 75 and all those compli
ments shouldn't blind him to
the fact that her eye is on
his money, not on him. At
the rate she's going, she'll get
both. He's thinking of pro
posing to her and he'll be
sorry.
Mr. A. S. - I believe Rae is
sincere. My children are sud
denly looking at me with new
eyes since Rae is on the scene.
They're trying to see what she
sees in me and so far they
can t find anything but cash
That's their problem, not
Rae's and mine. ' '
She seems to enjoy just
talking to me by the hour. My
children shut me up after two
words. When she invites me
to visit her, she prepares a
steak dinner fit for royalty,
with homemade sponge cake
and all. But when I want a
fancy meal with my son and
daughter and their families,
how do I get it? By taking
them all to a restaurant and
footing the bill.
Rae brings sunshine into
my life. She's a cheerful com
panion who makes no de
mands. It's too bad Guy sees
only one angle to this. Why
does he assume it's impossible
for Rae to appreciate me as a
person?
e
The Council - If Guy fol
lows the fate of Broadway
musicals, he'll note that sev
eral of them this season re
volved around money and
business, yet the only one to
succeed was the one which
highlighted the fun, fooling
and frolic behind those fren
zied pursuits. Rae may be real.
Time will tell. Meanwhile, she
is putting on a good act, env
phasizing ego-building (For
Mr. S.) joys the bull's eye
for tired businessmen of all
ages.
While we won't dare to dub
Mr. S. an old fool, nor even
a young fool, we'll go along
with his son in the matter
of caution. What proof have
you, Mr. S., of Rae's basic
character, aside from the pres
ent "productions?" Have you
met past associates, acquaint
ances, friends and family who
can fill in the blanks of back
ground? It's more important
to know how Rae stands up In
times of stress, how cheerful
she is when the chips are
down, than how alluring she
can be while husband hunt
ing.
Let us suggest that Mr. S
allow himself time to see Rae
under varying circumstances,
to test her off-guard "reflexes"
when faced with hard work
or unpleasant facts. In the
course of conversation, for ex-

ample, he might test her re
action to the idea of a legal
prenuptial agreement, quite
common in second marriages,
limiting her share of his es
tate if he married and pre-de-ceased
her.
For, a large part of Guy's
and the family's opposition to
this flowering romance is
based, undoubtedly, on "dol
lar diplomacy." Once the hur
dle of Who-gets-the money-
is surmounted to the chil
dren's satisfaction, they may
be able to see Rae as a pleas

by viewing him from a dif

Well, sir, before you could
say "Kingston Trio" I had
hauled out my mandolin and
was whomping up a folk song
of my own. I call it "Poor Old
Pater," and if any record com
pany is interested after see
ing the lyrics, I'm available.
Verse:
Oh, what a miserable morn
ing; Oh, what a terrible day
The day that we lost poor old
pater
In a most unusual way.
It happened in the early
spring
Of nineteen sixty-one
When pater took a little trip
To see the sights in Washing
ton. He had a jolly time there.
He saw sights by the score
Until the day he tried to see
His home state U.S. senator.
He never should have done it;
He should have stood in bed.
What happened to poor old
pater
Shouldn't happen to a Red.
He got into the public lift
And asked for number three
But a senator's call for num
ber five
Was given priority.
Chorus:
So, he never came back.
No, he never came back.
He was heard from never
more.
Poor old pater's in the ele
vator Still waiting for his floor.
