PROBE OF PACT

QN.S). Opposition to the an

Britain and the United States
eliminated on Capitol Hill today
in . resolution designed to halt
negotiations of all trade pacts.
The resolution, sponsored by
Senator Lodge (R.) of Massachu-
sets, called for a complete inquiry
into the policies" of the trade
agreements promulgated by the
State Department. 1t also called
upon Congress to determine
whether trade agreements are re-
SponSible for business depres-
sionS," and whether they add to
"the tragic army or American un-
employed"
Senator Lewis CD Of Illinois,
member of the Foreign Relations
Committee, proposed that such an
agreement with Great Britain be
held up until it pays its war debts
to the United States.
II am protesting against the
closing Of any trade treaty with
any of the nations, who, being

FOR EXEMPTION
IN PROFITS TAX
House Group Agrees
On Some Relief

d.NSJ. Complete exemption
from the undistributed profits tax
for corporations with net earnings
up to s26, 900 year was considered
by the House Ways and Means tax
subcommittee today.
While a definite decision was
not made, the subcommittee did
agree that some relief would be
accorded.
INCOME TAX BOOST
At the same time, the subcom-
mittee decided it will boost normal
corporation income tax rates to
substantially make up the loss in
revenue caused by granting Of ex-
emptions from the profits tax.
The subcommittee tentatively
agreed to exempt from the profits
tax corporations emerging from
bankruptcy or reorganization for a
period three years after they get
on their feet again.
Treasury experts told the COM
mittee that exemption. from nthe
profits tax for corporations earn.
ing $4,000 year or less would
cause q loss Of $50,000,0 900 in tax
revenue and would affect SO per
cent Of all corporations.
CORPORATION RATES
If this course is pursued, the
subcommittee probably will return
to the normal corporation tax
rate existing before 1885, which
ranged from 121s to IA per cent
Of net earnings.
AS a part Of its work, the sub
committee also considered limiting
the profits tax exemption to firms
earning less than $4,000 or less
than $4,000 a year.
I'VE have not reached tenta-
tive conclusions as to the in.
crease necessary in normal cor
pcrations rates to make UP for
loss in revenue by exemption
from the profits tax, but we be-
lieVe that an increase in normal
rates to those existing prior to
1896 will practically wipe out
the loss" said Chairman Vim.

TERMS DISCUSSED

At a Write House conference
earlier this week, board members
discussed several plans by which
the Governments regulation Of
aviation would be consolidated.
The plan deemed most feasible
by the board calls for the estab-
lishment of a new Federal avia-
ton commission. This body would
not operate as an independent
government agency but would be
made a part Of either the Com
merce Department or the Inter.
state Commerce Commission.

VanVOOrhees Head
OF KiWanis Club

Albert B. Van Voorhees, is the
new president Of the Washington
Kiwanis Club. He was elected at
2 meeting held at the Mayflower
Hotel yesterday.
The Washington times., 1937-11-19

The President asked Congress to
help business in his message to
the special session. Since Mon
day, Barkley and other leaders
have lined up their forces, looked
the situation over, and decided
upon their course. Today, through
an exclusive interview with Inter
national News Service. he directed
to the American business man an
outline of what he confidently ex.
poets this Congress and the regu.
lar session starting in January to
accomplish.
FARM BILL THIS TINE
Taxation relief, said Barkley,
fresh from White House confer
ences, will come in the regular
session with all speed, and its re-
lief features will comprise:
l. Modification-not repeal
of the undistributed profits tax.
2. Modification Of the capital
gains tax.
3. Modification OF the capital
stock tax.
Prior to that, in the special ses-
sion, Barkley said, the Democrats
will wage a vigorous fight to whip
through a farm bill, dispose Of
antilynching. and perhaps enact q
reorganization bill.
DIRECT PROGRAM
The Democratic leader outlined
his program in direct quotations:
He said:
"It is agreed on all hands that
there will be some modification
of the tax structure, with par
ticular reference to the undiS-
trihuted profits tax, the capital
stock tax and the capital gains
tax.
"I think it ought to be rea-
lized by the country that hasty
tax legislation that has not re-
ceived proper consideration can
do more harm than good.
I'VE are convinced of the
need for reasonable modifica-
tions, keeping in mind always
the justice and equities that
ought to exist between groups
and among taxpayers generally.
ASKS BUSINESS SUPPORT !
while those familiar with
legislative processes realize the
impossibil:ty of a tax bill within
the next four weekS-the special
session, in other words-I feel
that every assurance should be
extended to business, and that
business should accept aSsur-
ance, that the tax structure shall
be modified to aid it.
The House committee is al
ready dealing with the question,
and has, for several weeks, been
considering it. InaSmuch as,
under the constitution, all
revenue bills must originate in
the House, it is manifest that
the Senate cannot and ought
not to attempt the enactment of
a tax bill when it has no right
and no reason in so doing.
This congress will zeal with
this question with all possible
speed, and I think that business
should realize that"
