GROUP FIGHTS
INCOME TAX
PUBLICITY.
International News Service


Publicity Of income tax returns
and salaries was revived as an
issue today as Congress prepared
for a protracted battle over the
new 800 million-dollar tax bill.
With one group demanding full
publicity, efforts were to be made
to write amendments into the
measure requiring complete Sc
crecy of tax returns.
The way was cleared for the
fight by action Of the Ways and
Means Committee in rewriting
provisions Of the 1884 tax law
into the new measure.
Provisions Retained
The two provisions are:
/. Authority, now unused,
given the President to make
public all income tax returns.
2. Authority under which the
Treasury recently made public
corporation salaries Of $4,000
year and over.
It was disclosed that the COM
mittee, in secret session, rejected,
9 to 4, a motion by Representative
Boehne CD, Of Indiana, to repeal
the publicity provision. The COM
mittee also rejected a motion by
Representative Treadway (R.), Of
Massachusetts,, to strike out the
salary publicity provision from
the new bill.
Hailed by Representative Bank
head, Of Alabama, the Democratic
leader, as "the most important
piece of legislation at this session, I"
the bill, on the opening day of de-
bate, attracted less than 100 Of
the 435 House members.
President ExOnerated
Chairman Doughton Cd, of
North Carolina, of the Ways and
Means Committee, fired the open
ing gun in the scheduled 16 hours
Of debate, with denial Democrats
had rubber stamped" the pro-
poSal suggested by Presid n t
Roosevelt to tax undistributed
corporate SURPRISES.
Generating the President for
asking taxes to pay for the SOL
dierS' bonus and for the new farm
program, Doughton declared:
LET it be said emphatically
that for neither of these two
causes is the President of the
United States responsible"
BLAMES SUPREME COURT
He blamed the Supreme Court
and Congress for the new tax
needs.
Answering Doughton, Represen-
tative TreadWay (RO, Of Massa-
chusetts, ranking minority COM
mittee member, pointed to the ma
jority report saying the new Con-
greSS could "act more intelligently
on another tax bill. adding:
81 think there can be no queS-
ton the next Congress will act
more intelligently than the pres
emit Congress, and possibly the
majority have in mind that they
will not be in control during the
next Congress.
"They expect the Republican
side to be in control, and we GER
tainly will act more intelIigently
than the present majority has
done in offering this mOnStrOs-
ity c.: a bill in Subservience to
the Presidents wishes"

Several Of Big
 Bills Lost When
 Congress Closed
(Bv The Associated PressJ

| tBV The hSSOCl9IeO fTeSSJ
 WASHINGTON, D. C., June 22 Leaving on the White House door step, bundle of bills that included the new revenue and relief measures, the 74th Con- gress adjourned its six months session.
 The senate was gripped in a filibuster which killed the Cuff ey Vinson and Guffey coal bills, as the last gavel fell.
 The House idled through few final bills and then marked time until the senate adjourned.
 The long-embattled tax bills, estimated to raise eight hundred million dollars revenue, were passed Saturday, but the coal and ship subsidy, and housing bills were held up by the pro- ceedings. The ship bill was fin ally squeezed through but the housing bill was lost, along with the coal bill, the last measure designed to replace the court in validated coal control act.
 An eleventh hour effort to push the three year old food drug bill through the house also failed.
 When congressional business was done, democratic members trekked north to Philadelphia for the Democratic National Conven- tion.
 President Roosevelt deferred his usual weekend yachting trip to work over the besketful of bills sent him.
 He already has signed a large number of bills including the an ti-price discrimination bill de. signed to prevent large retailers from obtaining fictitious" rebat es from wholesalers.
 Bills passed included the soi conservation program, designed to replace the old AAA outlaw ed by the Supreme Court, ant the Soldiers Bonus payment bill the latter being passed over tn president's veto.

While the limits might seem to

vented as many heavy losses as they
