WHOIESAIERS SUPPORT SMAtt BUSINESS TAX PROGR,AM

Washington, D.C.-President James E. Allen of the National Association of Wholesalers, congratulated Congressmen and Senators on their introduction, in the llouse and Senate, of identical bills to provide a tax adjustment for small and medium-sized businesses based on earnings reinvested in the business.

Pledeine all-out support of the nation's 185,000 wholesalers f-or the Ikard bill H.R. 2, the Curtis bill H.R. 13 and the Sparkman-Humphrey-Ke{auver bill S. 59, Mr. Allen said, 'Tnactment of your bill(s) will not only give us a better chance to survive and grow but will place us in better position to assist our retail and industrial customers in meeting their problems of ever-increasing capital needs to better ierve the consuming public."

The bills would provide a tax adjustment, or credit deduction of up to $30,000 or 20/o of earnings, whichever-is the smaller, -for aggregate increases in investment in depreciable assets, inventory and accounts receivable. They would apply equally to incorporated and unincorporated businesses.

In a statement in the Congressional Record, Congressman Curtis said, "This is the seed corn philosophy upon which America has grown great. We plant one acre of corn, but we retain enough seed from the harvest to plant two acres next year Congressman Ikard's and my thelry of removing some of the tax on the seed corn is bound to produce more, not less, Federal revenues."
