Treasury Criticism
Denotes Agreement
With Plan, RumI Says
Poy-os- You-Go Advocate
Answers Objections
Roised by Paul
p, tbt Associated Press

~ TIT ASSOCIATED Press
NEW YORK. Sept. l.-Beardsley
Runl, chairman of the Federal Re-
serve Bank of New York, said today
that he considered a criticism of his
pay-as-you-go income tax plan by
the Treasury Department as evil
dence that the Government lis at
least in agreement on the basic
principle-that there should be a
pay-as-you-go tax plan of some
sort"
Mr.. Ruml's statement was in reply
to a broadcast last night by Ran
dolph Paul, Treasury general coun-
sci, who said that the Ruml plan
would not, as claimed. put taxpayers
on a current basis, but would favor
the rich and would cancel several
billions of dollars due on 1941 in
come.
In Armed Forces.
THE Treasury objects to the plan
because it feels it gives too much
benefit to 'windfall cases and to
upper bracket incomes" Mr.. Paul
said. But we should remember
that the vast majority of citizens
whose incomes were higher in l94l
than In 1912 are those who are in
the armed forces, or in the Govern
ment service, or whose income has
been cut by dislocations caused by
the war.
These are not windfall cases:
they are the very persons who need
most to be freed from past income
tax debt"
Mr.. Ruml said that the Treasury
mentioned incomes of $500,0O0 but
the number of cases of this amount
and over is very small; in 1910. the
last year for which we have statis-
tics, it was less than 200"
Answers Second Objection.
"The second objection of the
Treasury is that taxpayers with a
widely f1uctuating income will not
necessarily be on current basis,
but the Treasury ignores specific
relief provisions which If taken
advantage of will obviate this diff
ficulty," he said.
The Treasury makes the point
that the plan would involve the
cancellation of several billions of
tax, and that this is no time to
cancel taxes" he continued. But it
comedies that the plan would not
reduce tax receipts except over
period of many years, and since
actual revenue is the thing that
counts now. mere bookkeeping en-
tries are not important"

MELBOURNE, June 17-CUP) -
Gen. Douglas Macarthur and Aus
tralian army and government lead
ers completed today a series of
conferences on the Pacific strategy
situation in the light of Japans de-
feats in the Coral sea, Midway is
land and Aleutian engagements and
the sudden flaring of big scale aer-
ial fighting in this war theater.
No announcement was made of
the result of the conferences but
army minister Francis M. Forde an
nounced that the rapid expansion
of the Allied fighting forces made
it necessary to take over hotels
clubs and golf houses in some areas
to house troops. Prime Minister
John Curtin said the Pacific vic
tories, however heartening, were
not conclusive.
Macarthur conferred with Curtin
today and then attended the meet
ing of the war council, composed
