ROOSEVELT SHUNS|
NEW TAX AS RIDER
Doesn't Want Plan Tackled
on to Resolution, He
Tells Congress.

President Roosevelt has told Sen
ator Harrison, chairman of the FL
nance Committee, and Representative
Doughton, chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, that he does not
desire to have his new tax program
tackled onto joint resolution extend
ing excise taxes beyond July l, Sen
ator Harrison said today.
The President and the Democratic
leaders in Congress are anxious to
have this joint resolution disposed Of
as quickly as possible so that the ex-
else taxes will continue to run with
out interruption.
The belief is strong on Capitol Hill
that the Presidents new tax program
will be considered by the House Ways
and Means Committee during the
coming Fall, so that the committee
may have a bill ready to present at
the next session in January.
If the program should be postponed
until next session, it would be thrown
into 1861 campaign year. Some
confidants of the President already
have indicated he is ready to press
his plan through the presidential cam
paign-thus making it major issue.
But there was much confusion in
Congress as to whether the White
House would prefer immediate passage
and Democratic leaders apparently
were divided as to the practicability
of obtaining action this session on a
program which includes such major
proposals as higher taxes on large in
comes, both individual and corpo-
rate, and heavy levies on inheritances.
Sooner or Later"
After conferring with Charles
Nicholson, publicity director for the
Democratic National Committee,
Speaker Byrns isued . statement say
ing the presidential message was a
practical chart" for tax bill that
Congress will have to enact sooner
or later" to meet emergency expendi-
lures.
"I have no doubt" he said, that
when the matter comes directly be-
fore Congress for action, that the Ma
tional Legislature will follow the
Presidents lead"
Though the Senate Finance Com
mittee rejected yesterday a move by
Senator La Toilette, Progressive, of
Wisconsin, to attach a series of
wider distribution of wealth" taxes
to bill extending $500,000,0O0 in
nuisance taxes, La Toilette was plan
ming to offer his plan from the floor,
possibly next week.
La Toilette Praises Message.
La Toilette has praised the Presi-
dents tax message and the amend
ments were his idea of how Mr.. Roose-
velt's general suggestions should be
carried out. n
His tax plan will be supported by
Senator Long, Democrat, of Louisiana,
who expressed skepticism about the
Presidents message and said he
wanted to put the New Deal crowd
on the spot"
Advocates of immediate payment of
the soldiers bonus renewed their drive
after reading the Presidents message.
An American Legion statement as
serted the Roosevelt program was SINH
lar to one suggested by Secretary Nor
genthau when the Treasury head said
new taxes would be necessary If the
bonus were paid.

English Enpisage Roosevelt
Taking Barbard's Millions

editorial comment: 1.-THE immediate
result of the wrecking of N. r. A. by
the Supreme Court is being shown by
the decisive move to the left by Pres
ident RooseVeltss administration.
While N. r. A. may be dead, its
soul is marching on. It Is even pos
sible that conservative interests which
displayed such unwise exuItation at
its demise may find it has speeded up,
instead of checking or destroying
movements 10 which they objected.
"It seems probable that the real
result Of the destruction of ". r. A.
policy will be to precipitate a great
struggle between the left and right
and to force the President to range
himself definitely On the side of the
left" &C

that the elder Rockefeller receive

PRESIDENT MOVES
TOEND .R.A.FEUD
Seeks to Bring Harmony Be-
tween Agency and Trade
Commission.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated PreSS.
While a drive for a new N. r. A.
law is getting under way behind the
scenes in important administration
circles, the President has moved to
break the two-year feud between the
Federal Trade Commission and N.
r. A.
Both sides are said to be willing to
let by-gones be by-gones. and ofh-
cials of both groups are expected to
get together to discuss matters in a
friendly way.
Within the new. stop-gap N. r. A.
organization there is said to be q
desire for cooperative effort under
which the commission would have an
opportunity to share in the making of
voluntary codes.
Fog Must Be DiSpelIed.
Whether the fogs of distrust that
kept the two agencies apart during
old N. r. A. can be dispelled remains
to be seen. The commission has al
ready taken a friendly step in deter
mining not to create codes of its own,
as IL mas power 10 90.
Some so to 60 industries have made
inquiries regarding such codes, but
the commission feels it should avoid
duplication, try to give advice, and
see to it that actions of industry
under codes do not violate the anti
trust acts.
The feud between the commission
and N. R. A. always burned in the
background. Neither actually as
sailed the other publicly. The COM
mission, for instance, condemned the
steel code, but did not touch on N.
r. A. as such. Similarly Gen. Hugh
S. johnson, first N. R. A. chief, rap
ped theories involved in the trade
commission act, but not the actions
of the commission.
Conflict Kept Private.
Privately 1t was another story. One
high commission official offered to
bet N. r. A would be declared uncon-
stitutional, while johnson and others
who followed him we're uncompli-
mentary concerning the commission s
efficiency.
The proposed new N. r. A. legisla-
ton has been drafted by an admin
istration group, though President
RooSevelt's views on it are unknown.
1t would join N. R. A. to the COM
mission under the commissions name.
1t probably would enlarge the COM
mission from its present five mem
bers to seven or nine.
A definition of interstate commerce
would be an important part of the
legislation. Through it the Govern
ment would attempt to regain super
vision of some things stripped from
N. r. A. by the Supreme Court. Some
officials feel the court would be re-
quired to take cognizance If it were
strongly supported with factual data
about the interstate character Of
various industries.

WALL STREET DENIES
TAX MESSAGE LEAK
Analysts Describe Selling as Nat
ural Setback After Sub
stantial Rally.
Ry the Associated Press,


NEW YORK, June 81. - Leading
stock market brokerage houses today
were dismayed by published reports
that Wall Street had an advance tip
on President Roosevelt's tax message
The report was widely discredited
by brokers, who pointed out that it
appeared to have originated in an
article published in a London news
paper yesterday.
The selling in the stock market
late Wednesday, in advance of the
Presidents message, was described by
several market analysts as represent
ing a natural setback after a sub
Stantial rally. Selling centered in
metals, and was attributed to in
creasing uncertainty over the ability
to maintain present prices in the alb
sence of codes.
