House Studies Ethics Bill
By MICHAEL L. POSNER
WASHINGTON (UPI) —
House tax-writefs are beginning
to chip away at President
Johnson’s proposed 10 per cent
tax increase, apparently with
the aim of shaping the measure
so that more of the burden
would fall on business.
Despite two long days of
public arguments and private
pressures, top administration
spokesmen still have not sold
members of the House Ways &
Means Committee On the need
for the proposed surcharge on
personal and corporate income
taxes.
But committee chairman Wil
bur D. Mills, D-Ark., reflecting
the general Capitol Hill view
that some kind of tax increase
probably is inevitable, ordered
Treasury officials to begin
revamping that section of the
President’s proposal dealing
with exemptions for some low
income taxpayers.
Mills told Assistant Treasury
Secretary Stanley S. Surrey at
the windup of this week’s
hearings Tuesday that the
proposed exemption formula
was unacceptable.
kinder Johnson’s plan, taxpay
’ ers would add 10 per cent to
' whatever their tax bill. He
proposed exempting single per
sons earning less than $1,900
annually and married couples
with two children earning
$5,000, however.
For the single person, his tax
liability of $145 would not be
taxed the additional 10 per cent.
And a married couple whose
joint return amounted to $290 or
Jess would not be taxed.
But if the couple’s tax
liability came to $291, the extra
dollar would mean another
$29.10 in taxes. It was this
feature that Mills disliked, and
he ordered Surrey to come up
with a new formula so that a
couple making a few dollars
over the exemption would not
be taxed.
Since Mills’ word on taxes is
law, this may result in a new
formula exempting everyone on
the first $290 of taxes owed.

FIVE-MILE ANTENNA —This pod mounted under the fuselage
of a USAF EC-135 jet at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base,
Ohio, contains a reel of radio antenna 28,500 feet long. In
flight, the drogue will pull it clear out to provide very low
frequency radio transmission capability, allowing much great
er range than normal. Engineers are perfecting the system.
