INDIVIDUAL, CORPORATE TAXES:
' T A
1
(Continued from Page 1)
deductions allowed under the fed-
eral income tax.
Romney explained that this plan
would "provide a broader taxpay-
ing' base, is simpler for the tax-
payer and would reduce admin-
istrative expenses otherwise re-
quired to check such itemized ex-
penses."
The governor estimated that
$108 million would accrue from
the personal income tax for each
per cent of tax, for a total of $216
million.
Most Equitable
Romney noted that assessment
of net income tax was the most
equitable form of levy on cor-
porations and proposed that "the
federal system of figuring tax li-
ability be followed for uniformity
and ease of administration." He
added that this tax would bring in
$23 million for each per cent of
tax, or *about $81 million all told.
The governor noted that the
state is allowed only a single tax
on banks and thus "it is fair that
the rate of that single tax should
be somewhat higher than the rate
of any of the several taxes on in-
dividuals or corporations." The 5.5
per cent levy will yield $9 million,
he added.
Romney suggested that cities are
the only practical local govern-
mental units to install a local
option income tax and suggested
that "the cities' authority to tax
income not begin until Jan. 1,
1965, with the exception of those
cities which now impose income
taxes," such as the city of Detroit.
State Collection
He further proposed that the
state should handle the collection
of corporate income taxes, since
"corporations frequently rest with-
in several local taxing jurisdic-
tions, and their tax liability should
be on a uniform basis."
Romney added that "the fact
that the state is paramount in
this field also justifies a somewhat
t higher rate on the state corporate
income tax than on the state per-
sonal income tax."
The governor also proposed that
local option taxation of personal
income be divided down the
middle, with half being collected
where the taxpayer works and half
where he lives. The matter of
which city should be responsible
for collecting such a tax from1
commuters has long sparked con-
troversy in the Legislature.
Uniform Authority
Romney called for legislation to
set up uniform authority and<
standards for county real estate1
transfer tax ordinances and coun-c
ty motor vehicle license fees, add-i
ing that these should be reserved'
for counties "to provide elbows
room for county government (and
facilitate) more adequate financ-r
ing of county services."
1
In addition, he suggested that
legislation be passed to enable
adoption of fixed allocation of
property taxes among counties,
school districts and townships
within the limit imposed by the
new state constitution of 18 mills
per $1000 of assessed valuation.
Romney proposed that each tax-
payer "be credited on his tax bill
with 20 per cent of all school
taxes becoming due and payable
after Jan. 1, 1964, and the total
amount of these credits shall be1
billed to and paid by the state.
"The totals of these credits and
payments for years- after 19641
shall be established annually by
the Legislature."
The governor noted that this
plan was not intended as a school
aid panacea, adding that he plan-
ned to make recommendations "to
improve the school aid formula"
to the 1964 regular legislative ses-
sion, which convenes next Jan-
uary.
Drug Exemption
The governor recommended
exemption of both prescription
drugs and food consumed off the
premises from the present sales
tax, noting that it is inequitable
for low income families to feel the
burden of such taxes more than
middle and high income families
do, as is now the case.
Romney also proposed that per-
sons over 65 be eligible upon ap-
plication for tax deferment of up
to $200 per year. Upon the death
of the individual, the state would
have first call on the property "to
recover the total of the deferred
taxes for the benefit of the state."
Through such proposals as these,
Romney noted, he hoped to cut
further the state deficit, which
was reduced by more than $62
million last year. The governor
also praised the taxes passed by
the Legislature in its 1962 session,
along with Michigan's good eco-
nomic year and the executive plan
of economizing, for reducing the
deficit to $23 million.

Senate President Pro-Tem John
P. Smeekens (R-Coldwater) said
he "would filibuster if necessary"
to block passage of a state-wide
income tax. He used this tactic in,
last year's marathon debate.
Senate taxation committee chair-
man Clyde H. Geerlings (R-Hol-
land) warned he Would not "as a
matter of course" guarantee that
the governor's tax bill will be re-
ported out of his committee.
"I'd rather that the tax prob-
lems be solved at the local level,"
he noted, adding that he preferred
to watch "the temper of the
people.
Depends on People
"The opinion of the people shall
be the overwhelming factor in my
considerations. The people should
have a right to object, and I won't
object to the income tax if the
people are for it."
Both the Senate and House tax-
ation committees will hold hear-
ings throughout the state late this
month and early next.

Green (R-Kingston) cautioned
that "the governor cannot expect
to get the entire tax package
through.
y.
ney's "half and half" local option
proposal is "totally unacceptable to
the suburbs."
Senate Majority Floor Leader
William B. Milliken (R-Traverse
City) defended Romney's proposal.
He said that its year delay would
allow Detroit to seek other sources
of revenue, especially if Wayne
County would pay some of the
funds it owes Detroit.
It All Adds Up
"One per cent can produce quite
a bit of revenue," he declared.
Kowalski described the local op-
tion plan as "gobbledygook." "Un-
der this plan, a person could con-
ceivably end up paying four sep-
arate income taxes-to the suburb
in which he lives, the city in which
he works, the state and the fed-
eral government."
He also scorned the provision for
"homestead" property tax relief
for persons over sixty-five years
of age, calling for a "real home-
stead exemption instead of a mort-
gage."
Blondy said that the provision
is a loan rather than a grant and
objected to the "means test" pro-
visions in Romney's proposal.
