There, nearly 1,000 tunestruck New Yorkers-Cubans and Puerto Ricans, non-Latin secretaries and button-downs-were writhing from side to side, stomping and waving handkerchiefs in the air.

They rose from $27.7 billion to $31.1 billion in the year up to February 1961. The level of personal income is also buoyed up during recessions by smaller tax collections, since the U.S. graduated-tax system enables people to keep more as they make less...
