tive's pleasure Cabinet men,
bers).
In 1949, when Congress i'm
posed a sales tax on Washing
ton. 1t sought to ease the blow
on low-income people by raising
the floor of the income tax, in
creasing the personal exemption
to $4,000. Rates were boosted to
Ia per cent for the first $1,000
Of taxable income, 2 per cent for
the second $1,000, 21a per cent
for the third 5000 and 3 per
cent for all over $4,000.
The list of those. fully exempt
was retained intact, however.
Domicile Terms Changed
One other change was made
affecting those who might have
to pay the tax. Originally. the
tax did not hit anyone who was
"domiciled" elsewhere, and who
alleged that he intended some
day to return to his original
home.
Finally. however, it was re-
vamped to apply to anyone
except those totally exempt
who spent seven months or more
of the year in Washington. How
ever, If they actually paid an
income or intangible personal
property tax in their home
States, they could deduct the
payment from what they owed
the District.
Since the District tax is
usually lower than the income
taxes Of any of the States, the
taxpayer usually winds UP owing
the District nothing.
The latest change came last
year under the Public Works
Act, when the taxes were raised
one percentage point in each
bracket.
While the only proposal to
which a price tag is hitched-
So million a years. to cut the
personal exemption figure to
$4,000, District tax officials also
have recommended abolition Of
the provision which lets mon
resident" residents wipe out the
taxes they owe the District by
paying taxes in their home
States.
District Finance Officer James
L. Martin, however. says the
change would produce a "con-
siderable amount" In additional
taxes.
And, he tells the story of a
friend who works for the Fed
eral Government-who has lived
in Washington for 20 years and
brought up his children in Dis
trict schools, but who has not
paid a cent in local income tax
to finance those schools.
The reason is that his friend
maintains a residence in Massa-
chusetts to retain his civil serv-
ice quota status, and pays in
come taxes there. Every year he
files a District individual income
tax return. shows that he owes
the District x dollars in taxes,
but has paid more than that to
Massachusetts,. Thus, he pays
the District nothing.
Another recommendation was
to amend the Soldiers and Sail
ors Civil Relief Act to require
payment of the Districts indi-
vidual income tax II similar
taxes are not paid to the serv-
.iceman's home State

revenue 16 years ago. It was re-
vised 10 years later in l949 and
again last year in 1854.
In this fiscal year. which ends
June 80. 1t is expected to yield
$5.1 million. At present rates. 1t
is calculated to produce $5.7 mil
lion in the next fiscal year.
This year, at any rate. it is
producing SO per cent Of the
revenues received in the Dis
trict's General Fund bank ac-
count. which finances every
municipal activity except high
days, water works, sanitary sew
ers and motor vehicle parking.
Facing a flood of spiraling
costs and tidal wave of new
pay increases for city employees
District tax experts have rec
commended to the Commission
ers that it be increased by So
million If Congress refuses to
impose a gross earnings tax on
payrolls, which would tap sal
aries of suburbanits who work
in Washington but live in Vir-
ginia and Maryland.
Changes Terms
The tax was increased one
percentage point in each bracket
only last year. This was under
the Public Works Act of 1854,
designed to help finance a 10
year, $50 million program OF
city building.
The present proposal would
involve no basic change in rates.
It calls for decrease in in
dividual exemption from $4,000
to $4,000 and would adjust. the
present scale of rates to max
imum of 5 per cent on taxable
income over $4,000.
The present scale is 2la per cent
on the first $1,000 Of taxable in.
come. 3 per cent on the second
31a on the third and per ceRi
on all over $4,000. The exemp.
ton is $4,000 for each Taxpayer
and $500 for each dependent,
The new proposal would sci
rates at az per cent on the first
$1,000, 3 per cent on the second
s1a on the third. 4 per cent on ali
taxable income over $4,000 The
Individual exemption, Of course
would be $4,000 for each taxpayer
Could Cause Explosion
This plan itself is likely to sci
diff an explosion in Congress
which raised the exemption tx
$4,000 in 1949 to compensate fol
enactment of the sales tax here
Under the tax as originally
enacted, the District charged
/ per cent on the first $4,000 of
taxable income. 11a per cent on
the second $1,000. 2 per cent on
the third $4,000. az per cent
on the fourth $4,000 and 3 per
cent on all taxable income over
$4,000.
Originally, the act allowed a
personal exemption of $1,000
for individuals and $4,000 for
couples.

Full Broiler Houses

broilers get plentiful on the market,
the price declines so all the birds
can be sold. Then the consumer
gains at the expense Of over pro-
duction by the grower. When
brOiler supplies are light, the price
goes up for both the producer and
consumer.
The % reporting brOiler areas

about l5A million chicks placed.
This was about 3 per cent more
than for the same week a year ago.
When the placement got this high
In previous years, the price IL
weeks later was about 21.3 cents
per pound. Growers should be pre-
pared to sell at prices which will
more than likely be in the low 2O's
rather than at the present % to
30 range.
There seems to be little evidence
that the demand for chickens will
be any stronger this spring than
last spring" McAllister adds.

sidered three alternatives: First.
that part of the facilities could be
closed to patients to save the addi-
tional salaries. 1t was felt that this
would not allow the Board to accept
all patients making application for
admission, and that active cases
of tuberculosis would therefore re-
main outside the sanatOTium pass
ing the disease on to their families
and the general public. Secondly,
that the care give nthe patients
could be cut to a minimum. It
was felt that persons suffering
from tuberculosis should be given
satisfactory and adequate care to
assure the earliest possible heal
ing of their LESSONS. Thirdly, the
Board could provide the necessary
employees to give proper service
to all patients seeking admission
and no one would have to be turn
ed away It did not seem wise to
have the new buildings and not
use them to adequately care for
all cases. The Board chose the
third alternative as the only rea-
sOnable method to protect the
health of the citizens of the State
In reviewing the unmet needs,
DR.. Moore reported that S28,500
had been saved in operations and
repair and replacement categOries
during this year because of in
creased efficiency in purchasing
and anagement. However, this
$28,500 cannot be transferred to
salaries becuase of the 1853 State
Appropriation Act which prohibits
the transfer of such funds. AS a
result of this, the Board must seek
$4,000 to supplement salaries in
place of $8,500 which would be
necessary if a transfer of these
funds could be made. The Board
expects to revert to the State
Treasurer the $28,50O which has
been saved.
