A boest in retail buying was ex- pected as wage earners paid off today found less money withheld from their, paychecks regardless of when the money was earned. Those paid today are the first more than 50,000,000 taxpayers pay raise at of government expense. The law, passed by Congress last March over President Truman's veto, dates the lower withholding tax back to the start of the year. But the government won't grant refunds until final 1948 income tax returns are filed early in 1940, The 7,400,000 persons freed from |all income taxes by the new law will have to wait like others to get back the money withheld from their paychecks from January through April The millions of other taxpayers will get cuts ranging irom 126 percent on taxes of $400 a year or less down to five percent on a tax of $134,000 or more. The Treasury ectimates the re- ductions will cost the government | $600,000,000 in May and June, with over 45,000,000 taxpayers shui.ru mmnm;, ST ek 'Jy- |WOMEN OF MQOSE T0 LUNCH SUNDAY FOR CEREMONIES The Women of the Moose will meet tomorrow noon at the Baranof Gold Room for a luncheon in honor of the ceremonies for the Academy of Friendship to be held later at the Moose Lodge Rooms.
