The brief apposed suggestions made earlier to the commis- sion that reductions in personal and corporate taxes chould be offset by increasing consumer taxes, Such suggestions were prompted by a desire for lower income taxes and not becuase commodity taxes had any ad- vantage over direct taxation, The council also called for a reduction in the top rates of personal income tax, ", . .
