Foes Of Joint Returns
Seek Votes 10 Beat
Plan on House Floor
Ways and Means Group
Meets Today to Discuss
Tax Bill Issue Again
BY the Associated Press.

Opponents of mandato tory joint
income tax returns by married
couples worked today in an effort
to secure enough votes to strike
such requirement from the new
So ,529 200, 900 tax bill in the House
Monday.
However with the House in week
end recess after three days of general
debate on the biggest revenue meas
use in the Nations history, most
members of the Ways and Means
Committee, which drafted the bill,
forecast that not more than $50
votes could be mustered against the
joint return section.
(Some shift in sentiment may
follow a meeting of the committee
this morning. at which time
Chairman Doughton is scheduled
to present some additional ma
terial bearing on this particular
issue)
A special rule will permit vote
on the joint returns
Three minor amendments to be
offered by the committee are ex-
pected to be approved quickly. clear
ing the way toward a final roll call.
Passage of the bill was predicted
freely both by Republicans and
Democrats.
Near the close OF debate yesterday,
Representative Wilmington, Demo-
crat of Mississippi, asserted if the
bill had any defect it was lin not
guarding against imitation"
The defect" he said, lis in not
broadening the base to make all peo-
pie tax conscious"
Six Representatives joined in a
statement listing 20 reasons for
opposing the mandatory joint return
provision. They were Representa-
tives Costello, Democrat, of Califor-
mia; Eaton, Republican, of New Jer-
sey; Clifford and Rogers, Massachu-
setts Republicans; Ludlow, Demo-
crat, of Indiana, and Brooks, Demo-
crat, of Louisiana.
Married women" they said, have
struggled since historical times to
achieve their rightful place in the
social, economic and political struc-
ture. The requirement of mandatory
joint returns, by merging the iden-
tity Of the wife with that of her
husband for tax purposes, is a long
step backward in social progress"
Representatives Crowther, Repub-
lican. of New York, a Ways and
Means committeeman: Voorhis.
Democrat, of California, and Dingell,
Democrat, OF Michigan, another
committee member, upheld the
equality and constitutionality of the
joint return.
Replying to the argument that
this provision would strike particu-
larly at community property States,
including his home State, Represent
ative Voorhis said 80 per cent of the
taxpayers in California already filed
joint returns because they would
not save anything by making sepa-
rate ones.
The House worked leisurely toward
the end of general debate on the
bill yesterday after hearing a pro-
posal from the Democratic side that
the assets of labor unions be sub
iected to taxation. The proposal was
made by Representative Vinson,
Democrat, of Georgia.

EASY FOR THE QUACKS

The ease with which charlatans of all
kinds, particularly medical quacks, defraud
the public would be incredible were it not
for the evidences to be seen on every hand
A few of the schemes whereby the gullible
and superstitious have been separated from
their money by these swindlers are men
toned in an article by Dr. Morris Fishbein.
Soon after Franklin made his famous
kite demonstration in electricity, everyone
was discussing the wonderful new force. A
doctor named Elisha Perkins manufactured
a lot of short metal rods, which he claimed
were charged with electricity and there
fore capable of drawing disease from the
human body. He sold many of the rods
one pair to George Washington.
Electric belts and similar appliances
have been sold by the millions, rot one of
which. of course, had any curative value
whatever A few years ago widely ad-
vertised product called Sanatogen had an
enormous sale, and testimonials were OBJ
tanned from many persons of prominence.
The stuff was composed of 95 per cent cot
tape cheese and the remainder glycerine
phosphate, neither of any medical value.
One promoter acknowledged making
