Big business today made an
eleventh-hour attack on the pro-
posed tax-the-thrifty revenue bill
as Senate and House confereeS
neared agreement on the measure.
Through Harper l.. Sibley, presi-
dent of the Chamber Of Com
merce Of the United States, the
nations business men charged
the proposal is "masqueraded" as
a tax measure and asserted "this
is no time to consider any inter
ference with business enterprise" 1"
Mr.. Sibley said the measure can
"thiS year. according to the san
guine estimate, produce about $40
Of per cent of the Federal Gov
ernment's estimated expenditure,
and several years hence might get
up to 31a per cent. Obviously this
is not a tax bill"
He argued reduction in Fed
eral expenditures would bolster
the Governments fiscal position
and at the same time encourage
private business enterprise and in
crease the activities already tax
able, thus producing greatly in.
creased revenue.
He said the measure would i'm
pose indiscriminate regulation of
business by various methods which
should concern the States:

NRA SKELETON
SOON TO BE
STRIPPED

Although the pruning Of NRA
personnel continues in desultory
fashion, officials today moved to
weld into an efficient whole the
loosely knit remnants Of the Blue
Eagle machinery.
According to reports from the
Commerce Building, the two divi-
sions of the revamped NRA-
Business Cooperation, under
Prentice Coonley, and Review
with DR.. Leon Marshall as its
head-have found themselves In
creasingly at odds since the fatal
decision Of the Supreme Court
on May 27.
with the resignation Of Admin.
istrator James O'Neil, the situa-
ton was by no means improved.
CoordinatOr Sought
The Business Cooperation Divi-
sion is made up Of five sections,
four devoted to industry and
headed by Wayne P. Ellis, Heath
Onthank, Walter Mangum and
PEBBLES, and one for distribution
and food under the direction OF
Harry c. Carr.
DR.. Marshall'S Review Division,
on the other hand, Is made up
of IL study groups" which are
Sllnnosed to be analyzing the coun-
try's business practices IN all
fields.
Principal objective Of today's
developments, it is understood, is
to effect coordination Of these
two main groups by setting up a
liaison officer or superior under
whom both will operate from
now on.
There are three "king-pins" in
the present NRA. They are DR..
Marshall, Mr.. Coonley and L. j.
Martin, executive officer for the
administration and formerly as
Sistant to Administrator O'Neiu
Mr.. Martin, it has been learned,
is considered the likely appointee
as pace maker and chief pilot.
Prior to the two years which
Mr.. Martin spent at NRA, he was
connected with the TubiZe- -Chatil-
Ion Company, makers Of artificial
silk at Hopewell, Va. He makes
his home in Alexandria.
Pay Roll Still Heavy
One of the first tasks Of the
coordinating officer, it was said
today, will be to strip the Blue
Eagle to the skeleton" described
by President Roosevelt shortly
after its demise. At present, there
seems to be still plenty of meat
left. In Washington alone, the
pay roll lists about 1000 workers
who draw down an annual salary
of $6,000,00O or an average of
$4,000. Field offices now employ
about TOO people who are paid
100000 annually or about
$2,850 apiece.
The skeleton" structure has
been described as consisting Of
ally W44C4C A4OL1A OVV w SJVOV CA4Ao
ployes. From a survey of the vol
ume of business now going on at
NRA, observers are convinced
that the 500 figures is the goal.
OF the 1000 NRA workers in
Washington, 1900 are numbered
with the Review Division. Co.
operation between this division
and the Federal Trade Commission
is being sought eagerly by NRA
officials. But it is an open secret
that to date, efforts to heal the
breach between the commission
and the recovery body have been
largely In vain.
In consideration of this situ :
ton, NRA Spokesmen conceded
that the review division in all like
lihood be far from immune dur
ing the imminent drive on per-
Sonnel.
