'Washington Vice President has provided what could be a strong impetus to enact ment next year of tax reform legislation by Congress. If he should be elected Presi dent, he obviously would be in a position to exert powerful in fluence on behalf of his legisla tive program. • Even if he should not be eleeted President, he still if nominated would be titular leader of 'his party and there fore in a position to influence legislation. The Vice President’s State ment—which greatly encouraged Itax reform advocates —was as follows: If the United States had met adequately its responsibility for national security and had a sub stantial budget surplus of around $4 billion, the new Congress (which takes office next Janu ary) “should be able to consider in a temperate and responsible way a tax reform measure."

I; is generally expected that the expanding economy will pro duce enough additional revenue in the following fiscal year (starting July 1. 1361' to make possible a larger surplus. This is conditioned, of course, upon Congress exercising re straint in acting on wild spend ing proposals.

Its supporters contend that the more reasonable rates proposed would, in the long run, actually pro duce more tax revenue than the present schedule. This would I result, they assert, from remov ing road blocks to economic pro gress. Vice President Nixon said the Steep rates in higher ’income brackets have discouraged sav ing and investment. He said also that more liberal deprecia tion rules for business would tncourage investment and ex pansion. This also is provided in the Herlong - Baker legisla tion. The Vice President’s remarks did not come as a surprise—for in a 1958 speech he had urged cuts in personal and corporation I income taxes and adoption of a uniform manufacturers excise itax. | President Eisenhower's veto of 1 the $251 million depressed areas j bill bolstered the hopes of mem bers of the economy bloc that the campaign of the big spend -1 ers can be during the present session of Congress. Economy advocates were en couraged. too, by the vigor with which the President denounced the spending proposal. He asserted 'that the measure 'would squander the Federal taxpayers' money where there is only temporary economic diffi culty, curable without the spe cial Federal assistance provided, in the bill.” Then he contended that the problem should be handled at the local level advice which many argue should be applied to a large number of spending and control proposals pending in Congress. In the President’s words, “last ing solutions to the problems of chronic unemployment can only be forthcoming if local citizens — the people most immediately concerned take the lead in planning and financing them.” It is certain, however, that 'the big spenders will continue to at tempt to push through Congress their program for costly federal subsidies for a variety of what should be local activities—such as school construction, teachers’ salaries, and housing construc tion.
