Payroll Taxes Will Take =:* Zest Out Of U.S. New Year No Blue Jokes ns Le cmabe th allay anne a dancocons. epee WASHINGTON (AP)--A_ $5.,- 100,000,000: boost in payrol! taxes Jan, 1 to pay for medi- care and increased social se- curity benefits will make it a not-so-happy new year for mil lions of Americans But Johnson administration officials indicated today that) this big bite out. of consumer incomes -- which only a few! weeks ago was feared as a po- tential drag on the United States economy -- now is wel- comed as a damper on infla-| tionary pressures. Its anti-inflationary effect will be diminished, however, by a new batch of excise tax reduc- tions on the same day. In the second stage of last June's excise tax repeal Jaw, in- dustry and consumers will be relieved of $1,700,000,000 worth of telephone, passenger, car. admissions, night club and other excise levies The net result of the two ma jor tax changes is that the pub- lic's payment to the U.S. gov- ernment will rise by $3,400,000,- 000 a year. That would be anti- inflationary -- except that gov- ernment spending and_ federal deficits are rising even higher The White House has dis-} closed that federal - spending} thir fiscal year will be $105,000,- 000,000 to $107,000,000,000, in- stead of the $99,700,000,000 or-| iginally planned.
