Flat-Rate Manufacturers' Excise Tax Is Proposed Nothing would bo "hidden" about the flat-rate manufacturers' excise tax proposed by the National Association of Manufacturers, Dr.

Harley L. Lutz, professor emeritus of public finance, Princeton University, and tax consultant to the NAM, declared today. Designed to replace the present hodgepodge of federal excise taxes by applying a single rate on all end products of manufacture except foods (liquor and tobacco would continue to be taxed separately), the NAM-proposed tax would be "easy to recognize and remember," Dr. Lutz said. "Under the present system, some things are taxed and others are not taxed," he explained, "and the rates vary widely.

The average citizen-even the tax expert--has no clear idea of what he is paying today in federal excises. "On the other hand, a flat-rate tax would be easy to recognize and remember. There would be no reason for anyone to be confused about the fact of paying a flat-rate tax, across-the-board, on all finished products." Dr. Lutz noted that the charge that a flat-rate tax at the manufacturing level would be hidden "disregards the fact that the same situation applies to almost all other taxes." "For example, all of the taxes that any department store pays to local, state and federal governments, plus all of the taxes that were paid to these governments by the firms that produced the merchandise 'sold by this store, are somewhere in the prices of the goods sold, as of course they must be," Dr. Lutz continued.

"But no customer who has ever entered the store has able to see these taxes in the price." As an illustration, he pointed to the fact that corporation income taxes, through a long succession of producers of finished goods, "are more securely hidden in the price than a flat-rate tax at the end of the manufacturing process would be." "Yet," Dr. Lutz said, "the opponents of excise taxes must face the prospect of higher corporation income taxes as part of their drive to avoid excise taxes."
