A county grand jury this

Austria has Just put into
effect her third tax reduction
In four years. After each Of
the previous two tax cuts the
Austrian Governments income
from taxes increased--and this
is the way tie trend is going
again.
SO stimulating TO business

ceived and timed tax reductions

tax rates than via the high

OF all the nations in the
Western world. Austria-whlch
regained full political independ-
ence only about three years
ago-is now the most prosper
Gus.
The story Of Austria's come
back is sensational, and the
tale is particularly pertinent to
us right now.
Argument Outlined
No responsible authority in
public or private life is oppos-
ing q tax cut because he thinks
our present tax structure is a
good one. Those arguing
against tax reductions now are
doing so because they honestly
believe that any significant tax
slash would take so much rev.
enue away from the govern
ment that our already balloon
ing budget deficit would be
swelled to astronomical pro-
portions.
Even without a tax cut we're
facing a deficit Of So to $40 bill
lion or more in the year start
ing July /. This wear Of a
soaring budget deficit now and
devastating imitation later is
the heart of the opposition.
But must it turn out this
way? Would tax reductions
designed to stimulate job
creating spending by consumers
and businessmen automatically
lead to a great loss in Treasury
revenue? Our own experience

AMERICAS PEACE POWER
What is Peace Power?

Peace Power is the strength to keep
the peace, of course. But that's not all.
Peace Power is also the scientist,
patiently probing in the laboratory -:
and the kid starting his first awkward
experiment at high school.
It's the lean young man in uniform
:. the men in coveralls at the factory
:. and the lone farmer, carving fur
row under open sky.
It's the professor, away tout space"
on the blackboard and his intent
students.
It's the hopeful diplomats at con-
ference table -. men who must be able
to talk strong and back it up. but
whose real job is peace.
And you, too, are Peace Power. Be
cause, wanting peace, you back your
wanting with money. Peace costs mon
ey. Money for many different things:
To help us keep the peace, through
industrial and military strength. To
help make it lasting for the future,
through science and education. And,
most important, it takes money saved
by individuals. Your Savings Bonds, as
a direct investment in your country,
make you a partner in the job of
strengthening Americas Peace Power.

Is the reason I've been digging
for details.
In 1854 when Austria put
through the first OF her series
OF across-the-bo tax cuts
giving both individuals and
corporations relief-her total
tax take was s729 million.
In 1855 the tax take was up
TO S79i million. That year she
put through the second broad
tax reduction. In 1857 the tax
take was up TO 1895 million.
Third Reduction
Now, the third reduction is
In effect. While this years re-
duction favors middle and
lower income taxpayers ana
particularly aids working
couples, 1t also includes major
relief for corporations and
exempts income from stock
dividends up to Si44.
The forecast is for continu-
ing business boom. Last year
production in Austria rose 6
per cent while prices and
wages held stable. The estimate
by the Institute Of Economic
Research is that production
will Climb another 6 per cent
in the first half Of 1858.
