relief have mounted in election
years and fallen off, in the odd
years.
There are signs that, in order to
bolster the cause of continued
Federal spending-Which under ex-
listing conditions OF revenue means
deficit spending-the need of more
adequate national defense will be
advanced, and in a big way. Al
ready there Is discussion Of appro-
priations ranging from two to three
billion dollars to increase the Navy
and to strengthen the Army and
the land defenses.
Whether money is to'be spent for
national defense or for relief or
social experiments it must be found
and expended by the Government.
Speaking in St. Louis Thursday
night Mariner S. Eccles, chairman
of the Federal Reserve Board,
sounded new note. And since Mr..
Eccles is a close adviser of the
White House and since he has been
one of those who have commended
that Government spending on big
scale must continue in order to
advance recovery, his present re-
Communications are particularly in
tereSting.
Would Raise Taxes.
Mr.. Eccles disagrees with those
members of Congress who would
curtail the expenditures for farm
relief, the w. P. A., etc. If more
money must be available for ma
tlonal defense and for continuing
the relief payments, then he pro-
poses to raise it by increased taxa
ton. That in itself is challenge to
Congress. For while the majority
IN control of that body may look
complacently upon Government ex-
penditures in an election year, it
may look askance at proposals to
levy Increased taxes on the voters.
His tax proposals include a reduc-
ton Of exemptions for income taxes
on both single and married men and
women. The result would be that
those whose incomes are less than
81 900 year, if unmarried, and less
than $500, If married, would be
compelled to pay a Federal income
tax. In other words, the income
taxes would be broadened at the
base, which has been advocated
from time to time by members of
Congress. but never adopted.
Further. Mr.. Eccles would increase
the tax rates on those now earning
from $1,000 to $4,000. He plans to
increase the normal income tax on
corporations, in order to give to the
Government a share of war profits"
which may be made through in
creased business because of the
European war. He would also pro-
vide extra taxes on rainy reserves"
which corporations set aside. This
last Is reminiscent of the old un-
distributed profits tax, which was
the target of especial attack in the
last and the present Congress and
which was finally erased from the
statute books over the administra-
tons opposition.
Would Adjust Security Taxes.
AS an offset to these increases in
taxes. Mr.. Eccles proposes that CON
sumer taxes" such as the excise
taxes on automobiles, gasoline and
theater tickets be reduced. And
finally he proposes that social Sc
