Taxes We've Escaped
Pennsylvania during 1851 witnessed a lot of
shout taxes in a legislative session that lasted just about
year, and do the
the state in very select company’
do not levy either a sales tax or an income tax, and we are one of
them: The are Maine. New Jersey, Nevada Nebraska and
Tsxas (ilizens of many stales are afflicted with both income and
sales laxes of course what Uncle Sam loads on their aching

How long Pennsylvania can hold out is a good question. We
squecked by the just-ended session of the legisisture without
that $5 per $1,000 income tax which eames close to
passing. There is a lot of talk in Harrisburg shout “broadening
the base of the state tax structure” In plain everyday English
that means dumping 8 sales or income fax on us
It's a safe bet that the pressure on the next legislature will be
as hot as the kitchen stove in an effort to pul acTOSs either a sales
or income tax of some description. Years ago most states paid their
Bills with money collected from properly owners and corporation
taxes. Now the levy on retail sales, incomes, liquor, tobacco, autos
and gasoline provide the chief revenue Of course, these taxes don't
cerned. Corporations, liquor, tobacco and gasoline provide the chief
reveniie.
The sales tax burdens ihe citizens of only 28 states, but it is
single revenue produced, accounting for 21 percent
West Virginia, by the way, was the first to
d sales tax. That was back In 192].
is worth noting that Ohle accepted
as an “emergency” tax. As in
h cases, the emer y seems to have beet permanent.
he proposed by Governor Fine for Pennaylvania figured out
at only one-half of one pervent. Judging from the past history of |
taxes however, the legislature would have raised the rate sooner or
jater. Many public officials, joyfully eyeing the tax money rolling |
in. hive no trouble finding rew places in which to spend it Repib- |
Hicans as well as Democrats come up with the theory that the people
want sli of these services, 80 they must pay for them :

The State of New York
graduated Income Tax Measure
tha! started off at i percent and
now has reached the high level
of T percent which i deducted

made little difference whether, in

The foundation would have been
built and from thet time om ihe
expansion program would have
continued and we would have
found eurselves paying ax high as
10 percent, rather than i per
cent, in a few short years
To prove that statement We
only need go back to Governor
Earle's Pmergency Tax Program
set up in the Year 1935. The de.

Along came the candidacy of
Arfaur James who, viciously, in
his campaign speeches condemmed
the. as he called them, “Nusiance |
Taxes” He stated thai a bon-|
fire would be created if he were
elected Governor and give he
of the Commonwenrith re-
fief from such obnoxious taxes
Upon his word and promises
Arthur James became Governor
Did he create a bonfire with
Barle's Emergency Taxes? Posi
tively no! He re-enacted all the
Emergency Taxes and added more
to them. And, the same procedure
wis followed by Governor Mar:
Governor Duff and now
that not one of the Emergency
Taxes has ever been repealed. So
the same fate lay in stlove for
Mr. Fine's Income Tax.
That was one of the reasons
we 80 bitterly opposed ils
enactment. Secondly, how Many
realige that, if this Tax
were enacted and an ordinary
housewife should hire a lady for
apy one day in the month and
should pay her a minimum of $!
