BY LYLE DENNISTON
Star Business Writer

The taxpayer could get a
bonus-of sorts-if Congress
waits until next year to cut
taxes.
He would have to wait for
his take-home pay to 60 up,
but when it did it could rise
by more than If lower taxes
are adopted this year.
Before the bonus showed up
in paychecks, however, the
economy would have to do
without some Of the buying
power that the administration
thinks it needs.
Specifically, purchasing pow
er in the early months of 1864
might be $500 million a month
less than if a tax cut became
law before New Years Eve.
It's almost a sure thing now
that President Kennedy's tax
cut and reform bill won't be
passed this year.
No Concession Yet
OF course, the administra-
ton isn't ready to concede that
yet. Even so, Treasury experts
have already started to discuss
ways to change their tax with
holding plans If the tax bill
Is held over until Congress-
next session.
And that is where the posi-
bility of a taxpayer bonus
comes up.
When taxes on individuals
wages and salaries are cut, the
Treasury will pass this on to
taxpayers by allowing higher
take-home pay. Instead of
withholding about $18 from
each 500 Of weekly pay, as
it now does, the Treasury would
keep back less.
If Congress adjourns with
out cutting taxes this year, the
Treasury will keep withholding
$ls a week. But when it does
cut its Withholding rate, some
time in 1864. the cut might be
deeper than the amount now
planned.

ECONOMY THE LOSER
Delaying axCut
MayBenefitPayer

The aim Of such a deeper
cut in withholding-in effect,
a take-home bonus for tax
payers-would be to make sure
that the taxpayers doesn't
have to wait until refund time
in 1865 to get the full benefit
of a tax cut he's entitled to
in 1864.
Businesses, Of course, don't
pay taxes by withholding.
Thus, a delay into the early
part Of 1864 on the tax cuts
planned for business wouldn't
mean a thing to company
taxes.
Under the tax bill as it
passed the House, a cut in in
dividuals' rates would take eff
feet January /, 1854.
Should the Senate push this
bill on to become law this
year, the rate Of weekly with
holding would fall on January
l to SIS. A second-step cut in
withholding. to $14, would take
effect on the first day in 1865.
But the Treasury will have
no authority to change its
withholding rate until the bill
does pass. And, If the measure
is still on Congress agenda in
the new session, the Treaury
will continue to gather SlS a
week, even though the bill
when finally pased-does make
the tax cut retroactive to jan
uary /.
