KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Mv 1, I9t PAYAS-YOU DEDUCTS FROM WAGES TODAY WASHINGTON, July 1 (PI Pay-as-you-go Income tax deduc tions went into effect for all wage and salary earners today as the government embarked on a new fiscal year that will cost It the unprecedented sum of $109,000,000,000. Through payroll deductions the treasury henceforth will keep most taxpayers substantial ly up to date on their share of that figure a share that prob ably will become Increasingly large yet still remain only small fraction of the total. Virtually iron clad assurances have been given that for the rest of this year at least the 20 per cent to be withheld from pay checks after personal exemp tions will not be increased, But the rate may go up be ginning next January as a result of conferences now in progress among treasury officials, con gressional leaders and Stabiliza tion Director Fred M. Vinson. Secretary Morgenthau already has indicated the treasury will seek $12,000,000,000 in addition al taxes, and Randolph Paul, treasury general counsel, said in . a speech at Newark yesterday that the greater part of new tax revenue must be drawn from per sonal incomes. The yield from pay-as-you-go at the present 20 per cent levy is estimated at $16,000,000,000 for the current fiscal year an increase of $3,000,000,000 over previous estimates. More than a third of that in crease, however, or $1,100,000, 000, will come from collection next March 15 of one-half of the unabated portion of 1942 tax liability. Treasury experts say another billion of the increase will come from the higher in come level this year over last and the remainder from the pro vision limiting abatement to the lower of 1942 or 1943 taxes. Exemptions under withhold ing will be $12 a week for single persons, $24 a week for married taxpayers plus $6 a week for each dependent.

ON 1943 WHEAT WASHINGTON, July 1 (IP) The loan rate of 1943 grown wheat has been increased from $1.22 to $1.23 a bushel at the farm by the war food adminis tration.
