fort to Give Congress
Industry Control

WASHINGTON, June 2. (UP),
Organized labor seized the SUI
preme courts to 4 denial OF
states rights to fix minimum
wages and hours for women and
children today as an added weapon
in demands for a constitutional
amendment giving congress pow
ers over industry.
Leaders of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, headed by Will
liam Green, saw the minority opin-
ion as basis for their demands,
The majority opinion was the
fourth severe blow to labor from
the court in little more than a
year.
The court knocked out the NRA,
railway retirement act, the Guffey
coal control act and, yesterday,
the New York minimum wage law.
All were strongly supported by
organized labor. .
The court in split decision two
weeks ago held the federal gov
eminent in the Guffey law could
not regulate working conditions
of miners and in the New York
case held states did not have the
power either. Seventeen other
states have similar laws. They
however, were not directly in
volved in the New York case.
The decision brought the. contro-
versy over the supreme court to- a
new high point. Whether the fight
for constitutional amendment
would be carried into the coming
political campaign remained I'M
Ger. President Roosevelt has given
no direct indication he will raise
the issue.
The minority opinion, written
by Justice Harlan Stone, was re-
garded as of especial significance.
Some saw in it an implied invita-
ton for a constitutional amend
ment defining congress- power
over industry.
Stone intimated that the major
ity decision, written by Justice
Pierce Butler, was based upon
personal economic predictions. "
Joining with Stone were Chief
Charles Evans Hughes,
Justice Benjamin Cardoza and
Justice Louis Brandeis.

DOUGHTON'S REVISION
ON TAX REPORTED

WASHINGTON, June Rep
resentative Doughton as chairman
of the ways and means commit
tee has reported favorably to the
House a bill which would simplify
questions arising over the refund
of processing taxes following the
United States supreme court in
valuation of the AAA act.
The measure is of special i'm
portance to cotton textile manu-
featuring industry, which is affil-
lated with windfall tax payments
in the new tax bill.
The most important provisions
in the bill relate to refunds of
taxes collected under the agricul-
tural adjustment act. 1t is regard
ed of the utmost Importance that
the provisions of Section 81 CD
of the AAA be revised to remove
objections to that section. The
other provisions have for their
purpose more effective and &C.
onomical administration Of the in
ternal revenue laws.
Title l is q revision of Section
81 (D) of the AAA, which pro
hibits any refund under the AAA
unless the claimant can prove he
has not passed on the tax for
which refund is sought.
The commissioner Of internal
revenue is required to give a hear
ing to each claimant and to find
and declare of record whether or
not the claimant has absorbed the
burden of the tax. A transcript
must be made for record if
court review is desired.
Need of revising these provi-
sions is imperative, Mr.. Doughton
saws, if claims for refund under
the AAA must be passed on UNI
der the provisions Of Section Il
(D). The invalidation of the AAA
has given rise to possible claims
for approximately $960,000,OOO.
This amount consists of approx
imately $3.50, 100000 in process
ing taxes; $9s,0O0,0o0 in floor
stocks taxes; and $12,000,O00, III
compromising taxes. Processing
taxes were paid by approximately
$4,000 taxpayers; compromising
taxes by $4,000, and stocks taxes
by 100000. The possible num-
Der OF claims, therefore, exceeds
100000. -.--
The great number Of claims
which may be filed relate to COM
pensating taxes and floor stocks
taxes. In these cases, the issue of
whether the claimant passed on
the tax will be relatively simple.
The bill proposes that such claims
be handled IN the same manner as
any other claims for tax refund.
