Big Increase Since War. The bill provides only a little more than half the 1 000 000,000 additional income which President Truman said represents the minimum needs.

With enactment of this bill, the tax load will have been increased some $15,575,000,000 since the start of the Korean War. A record-breaking 6 100,000 000 increase went on the statute books in September. 1950; a $3,900,000,000 excess profits tax act in January, 1951. The individual income tax increases are integrated into the regular bracket rates. As a result of rounding off the figures to produce even numbers in the rates, the increase for most taxpayers actually varies from IIV 2 per cent to about 12 per cent.

A single person earning $4,000 a year (after deductions for interest, taxes, contributions, but before his personal exemption) will pay $790.40 a year in federal income taxes instead of his present $708 obligation. A married couple with two dependents and an intome of $8,000 will owe $1,285.60 instead of $1,152. An alternative tax increase is offered persons in the higher income brackets. They have an option of paying an additional 9 per cent on the amount of their income remaining after payment of taxes at existing rates. This alternative is advantageous to single persons with an income of $28,800 or more, and married couples above $57,600.

For the first time, single persons who are heads of households are granted half the tax benefits available to married couples under the income splitting provisions of the tax laws. The net increase in individual tax liabilities was estimated at 000 000 and the excise tax boost at $1 204,000,000. Some of the miscellaneous provisions of the bill will result in loss of revenue to the treasury. The excise (sales tax) increases go into effect Nov. 1.

because generally ample supplies of these products are now on shelves the supply should be sufficient to meet normal consumer needs. Makers of washing machines, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners and a long list of other household appliances have been called to Wash-; ington in the past month for conferences on the tightening metal situation. Manufacturers already are limited to 58 per cent of their pre-Korea usage of steel, 54 per cent of copper, and 46 per cent of aluminum. Experts have disagreed on how long the acute shortage situation may last. Some predict relief next fall, others not until early 1953.

South Korean troops captured two strategic hills northwest of Yanggu in hand-to- hand fighting with a mixed force! of Chinese and North Koreans. bayonet and grenade fighting also raged on the western front above Yonchon and some 40 miles north of Seoul.
