TAX COLLECTIONS SHOW SHARP GAIN March $507,304,493 Total 43 Per Cent Greater Than Last Year. By the Associated Press. A Treasury report published today showed sharp gains in tax collections. Total collections in March this year were placed at $507,304,493, compared with $300,382,848 in the same mionth 1ast year. In addition to this 43 per cent up- turn in receipts for the month, the report indicated taxes taken in during the first nine months of the fiscal year |, were 26 per cent greater than in the corresponding period & year ago. Secretary Morgenthau in a recent radio address said mounting revenues were one big factor influencing him to believe the public debt probably would not reach the sum which Presi- dent Roosevelt had estimated it would reach by June, 1936. The President’s budget message had anticipated a gross debt of $34,000,000,00 by that date. Gains in all types of taxes — from levies against income to those on liquor—were shown in the report. In- come taxes were up 40 per cent dur- ing the month. Liquor taxes produced $32,928,116, an increase of $4,607,102 over the same month last year. Stamp sales reflected the increased flow of liquor, indicating withdrawal of 8- 931,706 gallons of liquor and 3,257,717 barrels of beer. Corporations were reported to have paid $139,776,550 in income taxes dur- ing the month, an increase of 42 per cent over a year ago, while individuals paid $182,131,312, a gain of 39 per cent.
