At the first meeting OF the faculty

president Of the university. told the
teachers that a difficult task is
ahead for teachers if Nazi Germany
is victorious over Britain.
Should totalitarianism win in Eu-
rope, that continent almost in
evitably would undergo long period
of darkness and despair just like
the totalitarian periods of the 18th
and 18th centuries, when there was
a complete collapse of the preceding
European orders he said.
1T is my belief that even though
Germany does not win, you and I
as teachers of youth have a most
difficult task before us" DR.. Marvin
declared. Uncertainty and des-
pair are abroad"
Urges Teaching for Balance"
He called on the professors to
maintain an appropriate balance in
the lives Of the young people we
would serve" because so much time
is being demanded of them in the
preparedness effort. Teachers should
step up learning in fields other than
defense so that the lives of students
might be Well-rounded, he said.
Finally, he asked for enthusiasm,
whatever the future might bring:
There may be dark days, difficult
days and days of sacrifice. there may
be commonplace days or days of eX-
ultation, but whatever may come
to any student or professor may be
because of knowledge gained, en-
thuSiasm garnered, and zeal stored

Two Senators Rap
Plan in New Bill
For Securities Tax
Leaders Predict Passage of
Excess Profits Measure
By Thursday Night

L
Senators Austin, Republican, OF
Vermont and Burke. Democrat, of
Nebraska asserted today that States
and municipalities would face addi-
tional interest charges of $ll3,000,-
600 annually if Congress approved
taxation of income from future Fed
eral, State and local securities issues
The Senators made a minority re-
port opposing proposal by Chair
man Brown of special Senate
Committee on Taxation of Govern
mental Securities. Senator Brown
put forward the proposal for the
committee majority as an amend
ment to the excess profits tax bill
1t would deny tax exemptions to fu-
ture issues of governmental securi-
ties.
Senators Austin and Burke de-
scribed the proposal as ''flscally, eco
nomically and socially unsound ="
unconstitutional"
Few States Would Benefit.
Though it has been popularizad
with the public as a device to obtain
additional taxes from the wealthy
1t would in reality place uron the
States, and particularly upon the
cities, a heavy burden Of increased
local taxation" the Senators said.
They said few States could realize
appreciate revenue through the
power to tax income from Federal
securities, while experts agreed that
removal of tax exemption would in
crease interest rates on their Sc
curities.
1T would not give the States back
one-tenth Of what it would cost
them the report saiG.
Passage Likely Thursday.
Senate leaders said the developing
. 'overSv ever proposed taxation
OF governmental securities appeared
to be the only major barrier to ap-
proval Of the excess profits tax bill,
carrying a 81 per cent increase in
corporation income taxes.
They forecast. however, that there
would be sufficient votes from a BIZ
partisan group of opponents to de-
feat the proposal and make posi-
BILE passage of the bill by Thursday
evening.
Some opponents conceded pri-
vately that there was little chance
of imposing tax on income from
future governmental securities at
this time, even if the Senate voted
to do so. because of unwillingness
OF the House to accept the amend
ment to the pending bill.
A recess because of the death of
Speaker Bankhead deferred until
tomorrow further debate on the
measure.
Senator Brown estimated that his
proposal would ultimately mean a
yield of from s30O.OOOCOO to s40O,-
10000 to the Federal Treasury. but
said the return would be negligible"
at first because outstanding issues
would continue to be tax free.
