INVESTIGATING
COMMITTEE OF
SENATEEBUSY
Secret Session to DiscOv-
er Ways to Get at In
come Tax Neglect of
Morgan Partners
BY LYLE c. WILSON
Omitted Press star Correspondent,

Washington, June z. (UP)-The
senate banking investigating COM
mittee was summoned to a secret
session. to-day to seek new weap-
ons to batter down barriers thrown
up by j. p. Morgan & Co, against
examination of its partners in
come tax returns.
None of the Morgan partners has
paid any income tax for two years.
The committee is determined to
dig into the tax returns of at least
three of the partners and find out
how their sales of securities were
used to offset taxable profits.
With it's authority to examine
the returns challenged by John w.
Davis, Morgan counsel, the COM
mittee was expected to prepare a
would broaden it's power and direct
it to investigate the tax returns.
Pending the granting of this
authority, the committee hoped in
its public hearings to-day to elicit
more definite information from o.
P. Van Sweringen regarding the
financing of the great network of
railroads which he and his brother
acquired with the aid of the Nor
gan bank.
For two days Van Sweringen has
replied 81 don't remember" to
most questions Ferdinand Pecora,
committee counsel, has PROFOUND
ed in his effort to bring out the re-
lationship between j. P. Morgan
& Co, and the Van Sweringens and
to show that the famous Cleveland
brothers acquired contrlof of sew
eral railroads without investing
much of their own personal funds.
Roundly rebuked by committee
members for his inability to recall
details of transactions involving
millions Of dollars, Van Sweringen
was directed to produce records
which would shed light on the
deals.
The investigating committee had
the support of the full senate
banking committee in it's deter
mination to scrutinize the Morgan
tax returns. The banking commit
tee yesterday adopted a resolution
favoring inquiry into the prac-
tees of buying and selling secur-
tiles as such business may affect
the taxing power of the govern
ment"
The three Morgan partners
whose tax returns Pecora is anxi-
GUS to disclose are Thomas S. La
mont, William Ewing and Harold
Stanley. Committee Investigators
say that Lamont, at the close .ot
| 1880. sold several blocks of stock
through broker and that his wife
bought similar securities the next
| day. Losses on sales of securities
may be deducted for tax purposes
If the ales are bona fide. The com
mittee wants to know the details
OF these transactions.
| Even if the senate passes the
proposed resolution authorizinf
the income tax inquiry, the Nor
gan partners returns may not b,
disclosed to the public. The Law
forbids publication of income ia,
returns, and Davis insisted no
even a senate order could set i
aside. Chairman Fletcher concede,
the committee might have to ex
anime the Morgan data in close,
session.

UNITED Press STAFF Correspondent
Washington, June6-Senate lead
ers marshalled tricks Of parliament
tary strategy today in q fight to
put through the senate intact
President Roosevelt's national re-
covery bill, keystone in his bridge
to economic rehabilitation. Debate
begins at noon.
Although anticipating strenu-
Gus fight over some provisions Of
the special bill. Chairman Pat Har-
rison of the finance COMMITTEES, was
confident of it's passage.
Harrison believed few, II any
changes would be made in the Sec
lions launching $4,000, 900. 600
public works program and devyings
$3.50, 100000 in new taxes to A.
nance it.
The administration hopes 5000
900 unemployed can be given jobs
on the construction projects. Work
for millions more is sought through
industrial regulation features OF
the bill. Harrison expects his hard-
est fight over holly contested pro-
visions of this section, and regard
ing them he tinges his predictions
with note of caution.
The industrial regulation plan
gives the president power to APP
prove highly restrictive trade
agreements. To enforce these trade
agreements the bill permits the
president to require all members
| of a particular industry to obtain
| licenses. By his ability to refuse
these licenses, firms refusing TO
abide by the rules might be barred
from business.
| This phase of the bill, once elm
| mated and then restored by the
senate committee, is expected to be
subject to wide debate. Sharp con-
| troversy also centers around e.
section which permits the presi-
| dent to place an embargo on fore
| ign goods if he finds importation
would jeopardize domestic indus
tries.
Leaders expected another severe
test on the labor provision. The
house in passing the bill provided
that any employe was to be free
to join any labor union.
| The senate committee inserted a
provision Jnat the emplOye Mgnt
also to be free to agitate for forma-
ton of a union. The entire section
was designed to prohibit yellow
dog" contracts.
The tax section, by which 1t is
hoped to raise $220,000.000 to
amortize and pay the interest on
bonds to finance the public works
program, is expected to pass with
out serious opposition.
The house sought to raise the
money by taxing incomes in the
lower brackets. Under Harrison's
guidance the finance committee de-
cided instead to raise the funds
through capital stock. dividend, ex-
cess profit and gasoline taxes.
Senator Reed, repn., Pa, was ex-
pected to battle for sales tax, hui
the senate seemed opposed to 1t.

Auction Bazaar
AT Strand Tonight
Novel Feature Has Taken
City By Storm in Brief
Time

Tonight all roads lead to War
ners' Strand theater where another
of the popular Strand Auction
Bazaars will be held. This new nov
city has gone over with the pro-
verbal bang during the first in
troductory presentations held the
past two weeks.
The idea is new, novel and en-
tirely different from anything ever
presented in a local theater here
tofore, being originated by the
special stunt production depart
ment of the vast Warner Broth
ers' organization.
Imagine an auctioneer buying
from his AUDIENCE instead of the
audience buying from him. Sounds
odd doesn't it? Yet that's exact
~ what happens at these Strand
Auction Bazaars held every We'd
nesday evening.
After he has spent all his money
buying articles from the audience
he in turn sells them articles
worth many dollars, for a fraction
of their cost. Gliders, porch fur
niture, iewelry. household furni-
ture, clothing, shoes and ever SO
many other valuable items are sold
over the footlights for next to
nothing. Then all the money de-
rived from the sale is given back to
some lucky patron in the audience.
It's barrel of fun and one way
Of spending an enjoyable Wednes-
day evening. A complete double
feature screen presentation is made
In addition to the auction bazaar.
Why not be there tonight, join
in the fun and perhaps take home
worthwhile prize?
Tomorrow evening, in addition
to the regular screen program, the
Strand management will present
Bobby Kicks Music Box Revue.
A talented group of Waterbury's
ace entertainers in As minutes of
fast moving singing, dancing. mu-
steal and speciality offerings.
There will be no advance in
prices. Strand patrons will find
the theater cool, coy, we'll venti-
lated and really comfortable. It's
actually cooler inside than it Is on
the street in the evening.
