WASHINGTON I A Senate- Huusvj bcoiiumlc subcomtuitiee to day held up a go-slow sign against any precipitate tax-cutting moves in the 1956 congressional session. I "A tax rate reduction next year 1 In the face of a booming economy might weil ue inflationary," said j a report signed by two Democrats and two Republicans on the Tax Policy subcommittee. It held out hope, however, that 1 If things go well in the next 10 j years, taxes may be cut "perhaps by as much as one third" in that , period. The subcommittee, headed by Rep. Mills iD-Ark), conuue.ed ex-I tensive hearings earlier this month, taking testimony from 81 econo- J mists, lawyers and other tax ex perts. Its report said that wise lax i policy calls for rates high enough in boom times to pay off some of the federal debt and soak up excess purchasing power. On the other hand, rates should be lowered In times of economic setback to pump more money into the economy, It said. The subcom mittee noted Congress voted tax reductions in 1954 when there was a mild recession. "Only In highly prosperous times sucn as lite present are we likely to find It economically possible to reduce the level of the federal debt," the report said. 'We should reduce the federal debt during periods of boom to offset the deficits resulting during ponoas ot recession and depression," Sen. Douglas (D-Ill). a subcom mittee member nnd chairman of the full Senate-House Economic Committee, filed a supplemental report saying he favors "some re adjustment" in federal tax laws. He suggested cuts In income tax rales on the highest and lowest brackets, but said the tax cuts should be offset by "plugging or reducing" loopholes. He called for repeal of the special tax relief for stockholders voted in 1954. and cutting down on the depletion al lowances for large oil and gas operators. Among oilier things. The subcommittee's report said ft balanced budget Is likely fur the current fiscal year, which ends next Juno 30, because of increased revenues resulting from booming business.- Hammond Organ o Chord Organ Lai-gcit ttock lead ing make pianoc In Ihla part of the well.
