CONGRESS FACES
 TOUCH PROBLEMS
Questions of Postwar Era Loom as Important Task;
 Women Ask Opinions

How the members of the 76th Con- . gress view such questions of national policy as taxation, price control, and imminent decisions affecting the course of the United States after the war is now being canvassed by the National League of Women Vot~ CTS in 34 states Announcement to this effect was made today in Wash ington by Miss Marguerite M. Wells, league president.
 Proceeding on the theory that better constituents will make e bet@ ter Congress, league interviews are encouraging ConRressmen to do 6 good job by pointing out that there are people in their communities who will understand and will help others understand, votes that may go against special interest groups and votes that have an effect on post- war problems Miss Wells explained.
 Some of the toughest decisions the next Congress will have to make deal with economic problems. The kinds of decisions 1t makes on taxs~ tion, on farm prices. on adminfstfas ton of economic controls. will de. termine whether we manage to avoid runaway imitation that can wreck the economic structure Of the United States and so disrupt war production that 1t would jeopardize the wifl- ming of the war" Miss Wells Ge- clared.
 Describing the controls that have to be established to prevent iflfia~ ton as painful, she said they "ifl- evitably mean expansion of govern ment personnel, regimentation Of all Of us, and red tape, These are evils, but in comparison to conI~ plete breakdown of our economic system they are much the lesser evil"
 Miss Wells explained the leagues position on taxation as being that the war should be paid for "to the fullest possible extent" out of Cur- rent earnings through taxation. To help prevent imitation by prevent ing the spending Of money, income taxes should be collected at the source and deducted from income before it is received, she said.
 Discussing the controversial farm price issue, she stated that farm wage increases will not solve the farm labor shortage although they may help the government carry out its program of recruiting mobile farm labor forces. If this if1creas- cd wage is added to prices on farm products, the imitation spiral will
