A flat 21 percent normal tax| | on all corporate earnings. | 2. A flat 20 percent surtax rate| | on all corporate earnings in excess | of $25,000. | This would mean a 21 percent rate op the first $25,000 of income and !a 41 percent rate on all earnings | above $25,000. The new corporate tax schedule) would actually reduce taxes Ior | many smaller corporations earning between $5,000 and $167,000 a year. It would increase the rates on cor- | porations earning more than $167,- 000. H | The present corporate rates are: | first $5,000—21 percent; next $15,000| | —23 percent; next $5,000—25 per-| cent; income between $25,000 and| ! $50,000—53 percent; and all income | | over $50,000—38 percent.
