Bill Easing Excess Profits
Taxes Goes 10 Senate
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Legislation to eliminate inequities
in the excess profits tax law took
its place today on the Senate's CAL
endar of pending business.
The administration measure, ap-
proved by the House yesterday after
brief debate, would save taxpayers
s70,O00,000 in excess profits pay
ments this year and probably will
mean about S22 100000 in refunds on
last years tax bill, supporters es-
timated
Chairman Doughton of the House
Ways and Means Committee said
the purpose of the measure was to
eliminate the unfair determinations
which had developed in the 1910
excess profits law, causing hard
ships to some individual taxpay-
ers and corporations
Need for further notifications in
the law may develop, he added,
after there has been greater oppor-
tunity to watch its operations.

British Aid Bill Debate
In Senate EnIivened
By Hot Exchange
Chandler Hits Wheeler
Criticism of Roosevelt
Victory-First Stond
Earlier Story on Page A-1)
BY ]. A. OLEARY.

The liveliest debate since the Brit
ish aid bill was taken up f1ared in
the Senate this afternoon, when
Majority Leader Barkley. Senator
Chandler, Democrat, of Kentucky
and Senator Brown, Democrat, of
Michigan struck back at isolationist
attacks on the administrations for
eign policy.
At the heighth of the exchange,
Senator Chandler charged oppon-
ents of the bill with trying to un-
dermine the confidence of the peo-
pie in the President, and Senator
Wheeler, Democrat, of Montana
came back with the assertion the
President is trying to film fam" the
public.
Coming after several days of long,
uninterrupted speeches, the rapid
fire colloquy aroused the galleries to
outbursts of applause, first for one
side and then the other.
Barkley Defends President.
Senator Barkley defended the
right and propriety" of the Presi-
dents statement at his press con-
ference yesterday that this was not
the time to make peace proposals"
Il don't think any Senator is serv-
ing his country by making the people
lack confidence in their President,
Senator Chandler told Senator
Wheeler after the Montanan charged
both President Roosevelt and
Wendell Willkie, Republican presi-
dental candidate, with violating
campaign pledges about nom
involvement in war.
I'VE may get into war although
I hope we don't" the Kentucky
Senator said from his front-row
seat next to the one occupied by
Senator Wheeler. IF we do, all
this talk is going to do us no good"
Senator Chandler went on to say
he thought it wrong for any one
to charge that the President. Sec
retary Hull or any other leaders
we're trying to get this country
into war;
I'm not saying that the President
wants to get us into war" Senator

House debate on an administration
request for 1888 100000 additional

There have been all sorts OF
things that resulted in unreason-
able costs and unreasonable delay
in the defense program" Repre-
sentative Taber, Republican, of New

avoided if they had been thought
out beforehand. Perhaps it was
too much to expect"

thing Congress and the American
people had asked of President
Roosevelt was cooperation" in
building up the Nations defenses
and that cooperation so far we
nave not naQ.

for completing construction Of 1876
