81 Billion Tax Raise
! Tentatively Approved
by House Committee
By fhe Associoted Press

A bill designed to increase taxes
by ST. billion a year-maybe.
more-was tentatively approved
yesterday by the House Ways and
Means Committee.
If finally enacted, it will lay
a considerably heavier load on
individual income taxpayers, cor
porations and scores of items sub
ject to Federal excise taxes.
The estimated total revenue in
crease is far from rigid. Staff
experts said it may hit $7.2 bill
lion. This compares with the
$40 billion asked by President
Truman to keep the rearmament
drive on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Roughly, the bulk Of the added
revenue is expected to come from
the following sources:
Individual income tax, $2.9 bill
lion, a fiat 1212 per cent increase
for everybody. This 1212 per cent
increase would apply to capital
gains as we'll as other income.
The result would be to make the
effective rate on long-term capital
gains 281s per cent rather than 25.
Corporations, $2.8 billion. The
regular tax rate would be raised
Is percentage points, a larger por-
ton of earnings would be made
Subject to the excess profits tax
and the overall ceiling on the
amount of all kinds Of taxes that
could be levied against a company
would be Increased from 81 per
cent of net earnings to 10 per cent.
Excise tax increases and addi-
tions. 81 billion. Rates would go
up on liquor. cigarettes, gasoline
and automobiles, and new cate
gories of household appliances
would be taxed.
| Withholding at the source on
dividends and interest, $4o0 mil
lion. This at the rate of 20 pei
cent is designed to make sure the
income tax is paid on dividends
and interest that might not be re-
ported otherwise.
