The British protested against that
action and the French subsequently
protested when, on the following
day, the French freight and pas
senger vessel Aramis was stopped by

Morris was the first nOn-official
witness to testify before the commit
tee on tax revision. 1t opened hear

istration, among other things, was
willing that tax "irritantS" be remov-

Specializing on whether levies on
both the company and the stOckhold-

Mitchell Carroll, Of New York,
counsel for the National Foreign
Trade Council, Inc, asked the COM

operating in foreign trade. One such
restriction, he asserted, resulted from
the undistributed profits tax and
prevented domestic concerns from
obtaining full credits for the taxes
they must pay foreign governments.
