"SMALL BUSINESS"
By G. W I L S ON HARDER
It will probably be around
May or June before this session
of Congress takes action on tax-
ation, but perhaps this is the
time for Congressmen to re-
ceive the views of the people.

>K * * •
Yet, on the uther hand, there j
is a drive to eliminate as in-'
eoine tax deductions the pres-
ent provisions made for medi-
cal expenses.
* * *
There is also a move to elim-
inate income tax*provision that
makes it possible to deduct
money spent for interest on
loans, mortgages, et al.
* * *
Yet, on the other hand, there
is also a drive to permit the
government to pay higher in-
terest rates on loans it makes.
This, of course, would result
in all the interest rates going
up. Thus, government which
has already fed the fires of in-
flation with extravagance, for-
eign give aways, and other
schemes, would again give in-
flation another boost.
* * *
This twin devcHopment, if it
occurs, raising interest rates,
and not permitting tax deduc-
tions for interest payments,
could easily wipe out entire in-
dependent business structure,
i * * *
When small business today is

erating or expansion needs, it
is having to pay, thanks to
government fiscal policies, at

eases firms at this rate would
end up in the red.
* * *
In addition, many things that
small bt'.sinos? now iieil® on in-
stallment terms, would soon
experience a sales decline when
purchasers discover that they
could no longer deduct ft nr in-
come tax the interest paid out
* * *
There is also a strong move
to again raise the gasoline ta>.;,
and also the postal rates. As
any small businessman knows,
both the gasoline and postage
used in operation; becomes
quite an item of expense.
* * * •
None of these proposals hp.ve
much effect on the huge cor-
porations. As bi'4 public stock
owned corporations if the in-
terest rates are 100 high, they
just cut down cr. dividends to
stockholders, using their earn-
ings largely for financing. Other
taxes are passed along to con-
sumer;;.
* + *
So the net result !s that the
consumers and small business
pay these increased taxes.
* * *
There seems to have escaped
from official mind the fact that
a billion dollar cut in exper.di-
tutes is the same as a billion
dollar increase in taxes.
* * *
Yet so far there have been
no complete and concrete plans
presented for cutting the costs
of government. Yet nation's in-
dependent businessmen, voting
through the National Federa-
tion of Independent Business,
have often pointed out there are
ways of cutting huge sums off
government expenditures with-
out weakening true national de-
fense one whit.
