CONGRESS must be extremely care
full in seeking new methods OF rails

So far the talk seems TO center on
excess profits taxes. Aside from
the practical difficulties OF deter
mining excess profits" this is dang
erous for two reasons. First, every
person-not Just business corpora

burden of this defense program Tor
the sake of our national spirit. Sec

do not raise the anticipated revenue;
they discourage employers; they
penalize expansion, they cripple in
