Senator Kefauver. Democrat
OF Tennessee. solicited the
views Of Mr.. Colbert and other
automobile manufacturers and
those Of Walter Reuther, presi-
dent Of the United Automobile
Workers. on a bin he has In
troduced calling for a 30-per-
cent reduction In auto excise
taxes.
Mr.. Colbert described as
completely unrealistic and Inn
practical" a proposal by Sena-
tor Douglas. Democrat Of Illi-
nois. for a reduction In the
excise tax from 10 per cent
10 rs per cent on the condition
that manufacturers reduce
prices by an additional 8 per
cent.
Mr.. Reuther indorsed the
Douglas proposal In his reply

I'VE know that many pros

convinced the main reason for
the failure 10 sell cars Is their
high price. After five months
Of study Of prices In the In
dustry. I am convinced the
Congress can take action that
would get the assembly lines
huming again.
Cut Excise Tax
The key 10 the plan is the
auto excise (sales) tax. under
which you pay Uncle Sam 10
per cent extra tackled on TO
the price Of the car. II was
passed TO raise money for war
purposes. but like many other
emergency" measures, II is
still with US.
There is now another emer-
gency which requires cutting
down on this excise tax. Under
this proposal a car buyer would
get a quick refund of half the
excise tax. On a $4,000 car,
that would mean a return Of
500. AS we say in Tennessee,
that isn't hay.
/ hope that the auto-makers
will do their part by reducing
their own prices at the same
time. I personally believe they
can make a 5 per cent reduc-
ton in price without losing
ANY profits. Added to the ex-
else refund, that would make
an overall reduction of 10 per
cent in the price Of a car. The
reason they won't lose is that.
as they turn out more cars.
the cost per car drops by enough
to make up for the lower price.
Supporters Listed
This proposal has the sup
Iport Of five other Senators, be-
sides myself, who are all well
Informed on this situation. They
include William LANCER, the
North Dakota Republican, and
my Democratic colleagues. Paul
H. Douglas of Illinois, Thomas
IC. Hennings. jr.. of Missouri,
Joseph OMahoney of Wyoming
and John Carroll of Colorado.
Except for Senator Douglas,
the sponsors make up a ma
Ijority of the subcommittee. of
which / am chairman, which
has held long hours of public
hearings on the problem of ad-
ministered prices in the auto
industry.
Recently the subcommittee
called in experts in the field of
automobile demand. who agreed
that a reduction in price would
produce an increase in sales.
Spokesman for the industry it
self have been asking Congress
to reduce the auto excise tax
as one way of reducing the
high price Of cars.
An expert in consumer psy-
chology told us that dramatic

action BY the Government
could have beneficial results,
This bill. giving the buyer a
rebate. could provide q strong
psychological stimulus.
Two experts on the relation
ship Of price reduction TO car
sales presented complicated
formulas for reaching their
conclusions. According TO the
figures Of one. II so per cent OF
the present 10 per cent excise
tax were eliminated. Il would
mean that another 250,000 cars
would be sold. In addition tc
the 100000 estimated produc-
ton for this year.
Sees More Sales
II, In addition, the car max
ers would themselves drop Their
prices by another S per cent
another 25o.000 cars would bC
sold. Together. both reduc.
tons. would bring an increased
production this year Of about
100000 cars.
At the same time, the sup
porters Of the plan are asking
organized labor In the auto In.
dustry TO exercise restraint In
their current negotiations
where they are asking foi
higher wages and better work.
ing conditions.
The proposal provides that
any reduction in excise taxes
will be retroactive TO May / OF
this year. This is very impor-
tant. It will take time for this
proposal TO become law. Mean
while. people who might other
wise buy a car might very well
postpone their purchases in ex-
pectation Of the price cut.
BY making these cuts retro
active. we are telling them To
go ahead and buy the cars now,
with the assurance that they
will receive the benefits Of any
changes enacted by Congress.
Cut Commissions
Henry Ford II was telling me
the other day that the dealers
are already cutting their COM
missions. So with the dealers
voluntary cuts. the prospects
Of an excise cut and the hope
Of a manufacturers reduction
this probably is a good time to
buy.
Another idea behind this
proposal is to guarantee that
the purchaser will get a refund
If the excise tax were simply
reduced or eliminated. the
manufacturer or dealer would
not be required to pass it on.
Under this proposal, the
present tax remains in force,
but the manufacturer will get
a credit from the Government
only if he refunds a similar
amount to the buyer. In this
way there is no chance of the
buyer losing out.
If you go out and buy a car,
suppose your trade-in covers
your down-payment. Shortly
after your purchase, you will
get a lump rebate equal to the
amount the tax is reduced.
Can you imagine what mil
lions of dollars in rebates will
do for people who are today
short Of money or fearful of
spending what they do have?
