KITCHEN ATTACKS REPORT
Calls Repeal of Excess Profits Tax and Others UndemOcrafic and Pro- Republican Measure.

Washington, Dec. 9.-Secretary Houston's recommendations in his an nual report that excess profits taxes be repealed and the higher brackets of income surtaxes be reduced were at tackled today by Representative Kitchen of. North Carolina, ranking democratic member of the house ways and means committee as the most unjust, undemocratic, .pro-republi- can thing that ever emanated from any department of the government since its beginning
 MT. Kitchin's attack on the secre- tary's report submitted yesterday, was contained in a formal statement, in which he said that he felt certain that if the democrats were in control of the house the secretary's proposal would re rejected unanimously.
 ''The whole intent and policy of his rcomm mendations, MT. Kitchn con- tinued, ''are to relieve the corporate interests and miljonaires, who for the last four years have plundered and 'profiteered upon the people to the eX- tent of their $J0, ,OO0. .0OO, ,0OO of a $1, 300, 100000 or S2.O00. .OO0.OA' of taxes af1hually and place that amount upon the backs of the people, that is, the victims of such plunderers and prof. teerS.'

PORTER BOUND OVER
 TO SUPERIOR COURT
tContinued from First Page)

brokerage house in New York will be sold and the proceeds will bring the actual monetary loss down to well within 3100.0oo.
 Methods He Employed
 As clerk in charge of the proof de- partment of the bank Porter had the handling of all deposit slips which are by him distributed to the clerks in the, department for record, and the method by which he covered up bis defalcations was to hold over from day to day such deposit slips as would successfully cover up his own personal shortage, this money instead of then becoming an over balance in the bank would be applied to his own personal account and checked out &C., cordingly. As the amount of the shortage grew from day to day it was necessary that the amount represented by deposits slips be increased and to accomplish this successfully it was necessary for Porter to be at the bank every day during the last year, the period of defalcations. otherwise the shortage would have been detected sooner, Speculation in stocks was the cause of Porters financial troubles. His operations were carried on in New York on a margin basis and the company with which he did business was not<a member of the stock ex- change. it was said today.
 Joseph D. Berry, counsel for the bank went to New York this morning authorized to take such steps as may be deemed advisable as to disposal of securities purchased by Porter with the banks funds.
 Married Two Years Ago
 Porter lived in an apartment at 59 Shultas Place where he went following his marriage two years ago. His home and social life is said to have been all that could be desired. His wife was in court with him this mornng. Porter was born in Hartford and is a gradu- ate of the Hartford High school, class of 1912. He went also to the Connecti- cut Trust and Safe Deposit Go. which later merged with the Hartford Trust Co
