Q
Repeated pledges by President Carter to
balance the federal budget apparently are going
to depend somewhat on the Internal Revenue Ser-
vice for realization.
This year, for exampfe, American citizens liv-
ing abroad nalonger will be eligible for the $20 000
exclusion from income tax liability they previous-
ly enjoyed. , >\ * ,
And now the president has asked Cqngress to
extend the income tax provisions to US. tet
.. Ttthrtes SUCftas Guam, the Virgin, islands and
^merican Samoa. At present, territorial
residents pay a small income tax for local use
Under the Carter plan, they would pay the same
rates that apply to U:S. citizens. -.
-^territorial taxtopay for local servicesrwouM
be optional in each area.
The president’s proposal is reasonable. The
same Army and Navy and Air Force that secure
continental borders protect the island posses-
sions. The territories share US. interests.
Citizen and non-citizen alike are in the
boat. All should share the burden of keeping it
afloat.
