How SIS. 1000 Check To CCG
Becomes "For Education"
BY CUSHMAN REYNOLDS


Washington (LPA) - Want t.
contribute $4,000 to the Commit
tee for Constitutional Government
top anti-labor, anti-Fair d e a
lobby?
Easy! All you have to do is write
a check. The CCG will grab it fast
What's more, cog officers vii
come up with ready made plar
to put your money to use. But you
mustn't think of the S25, 900 as 8
contribution. Perish the thought
It's a credit against the purchase
of educational" literature.
That's why Edward A. Rumely
executive head of the Cog, refused
to tell the House Select Commit
tee on Lobbying Activities the
names of his chief financial sup
porters when he testified a couple
of months ago. The Cog was a
publishing house, Rumely said. His
big hackers made no contributions
he insisted, they just purchased
books. To release their names and
the amount of their purchases
would be to reveal "trade secrets. .
However, by something more than
coincidence, all the literature at
tacks the Fair Deal, the New Deal
labor unions or the British Labor
Party.
Just how the system works is
shown by correspondence between
the Cog and Eli Lilly & Co. OF
Indianapolis, m n u t a tn rers OF
pharmaceuticals. On Jan. 10, this
year, an officer of the company
wrote the cog, saying:
"This is to advise you that our
budget committee has approved a
contribution of $25, 1000 to the Com
mittee for Constitutional Govern
ment for the calendar year 1850"
The committee said it would sup
ply its own list of teachers, clergy
men and others whom it wished to
receive CCG books and pamphlets.
Didn't take the cog long to
reply, either, although it's officers
apparently WINGED at the company's
use of the word contribution" On
Jan. II, Sumner Gerard of the
CCG came through pretty warmly.
"Your letter of Jan. 10 announc-
ing a $4,000 purchase Of our edu-
cational material was source of
great encouragement to DIR. King
and myself" he wrote. Reference
is to DIR. Wilford |. King, CCG
hatchetman.
Such substantial purchase so
early in the year will enable us to
lift our committees activities to
higher levels of effectiveness" !"
Gerard said. He added the opinion
that such purchases" were "legi-
innate" expenses, meaning that the
Lilly company could deduct them
from income for tax purposes so
long as the material purchased and
its exact distribution was specific
ally designated.
Then came the ready plan.
Wrote Gerard: I'VE will service a
list of 5000 names at $4 per indi-
vidual name % times between Feb
ruary and December 1850; or list
of l0,000-l1 times; or of 25,000-
four times"
He said the CCG would distri-
butte 5000 copies Of Norton's "Con-
stitution of the United States: Its
Sources and It's Application, a
book that stresses property rights
above human rights, plus 5000
copies of Sam Pettengill's "For
Americans Only, work that
makes the late President William
Mckinley look like wild-eyed
radical. Gerard also suggested that
$8 a head be set aside to send the
CCG's paul Revere Messages" TO
300 persons including the $50 mem
bers of the Indiana legislature. A
book by King also might be sent

Tax Equality Association President
Criticizes Committee Failure
To Act On Taxing Of Cooperatives

Failure of the House commit
tee on Ways and Means to ex-
tend corporation income taxes
to the business income of CO.
operative corporations drew
critical comment this week
from Garner M. Lester, presi-
dent of the National Tax Equal
ity association which organiza-
ton spearheadS the effort to
require all commercial business
es to pay federal income taxes
on business income.
Mr.. Lester stated:
"Ten days ago I wired Chair
man Robert L. Doughton that
the House Ways and Means
committee was playing politics
on the tax equality issue. The
committees action today, in
failing to tax the tremendous
earnings of cooperative corpor-
atoms prove that I was right.
"The proposed 1919 withhold
ing tax on cooperative patron
age dividends offers no relief
to the hard-pressed business
man who pays his taxes while
his cooperative competitor gets
off scot free. Actually, it does
no more than provide for the
enforced collection of taxes
that cooperative members are

supposed to be paying under
existing law. At the most it will
bring to the Treasury twenty
to thirty million dollars of new
revenue - though full taxation
of cooperative earnings would
have produced three hundred
and fifty million of new tax
money and would have easily
made possible real reduction in
the burdenSome wartime excise
taxes.
"But the politically timid
members of the committee, both
Republican and Democratic, are
considering the revenue needs
of the nation solely with an eye
to the fall election. This is no
more than political bribery in
an attempt to win the favors
of a segment of the farm vote
without considering the small
businessmen and taxpayers.
Businessmen will resent the
inconsistencies of the commit
tee in calling for the taxation
of the business earnings of COL
leges, charities, labor unions,
savings banks and building and
loan associations while t.
same bill blandly ignores the
far bigger business operations
of cooperatives-and this in the
face of the fact that the COM
mittee's own staff of tax ex-
perts fully recognizes the enor-
nous tax advantage of cooper
ativeS over other corporations
and partnerships.
1.-THE chairman of the COM
mittee, Congressman Doughton
Of North Carolina, and a few of
his colleagues of both political
parties deserve the commenda-
ton of businessmen for their
answering support of the re-
moval of tax favoritism as a
way to raise a billion dollars of
new revenue and correct the
long standing inequality of I'M
fair cooperative tax exemptions.
It is evident that other COM
mitteemen have closed their
ears to the thousands of pro-
tests that have poured in from
businessmen throughout tn e
country. They will soon learn
that businessmen and taxpay-
ers have votes, too.
"Today's action of the COM
mittee is only tentative. The
fight will go on, and we are
confident that when the rev.
enue bill is passed it will con-
tain a proper provision for full
tax equality" Mr.. Lester said.

at Tuskegee Institute Nov. 2O-22
for an Evaluation Workshop spon-
sored by the American Home Eco

Higher Education.
The group viewed with concern
the narrowing field of employment
opportunities for graduates in
home economics education. Some
new avenues of employment were
advocated. Among suggestions
made were: self-employment in
home industries, employment in
public utility and commercial con-
Germs, and employment as dietitians
in institutions and hospitals.

Legal Action
Delayed In Fire
Death Of Five
Chicago Infants

CHICAGO, Nov. 27-(ANP)-
Legal action against the principals
in the fatal fire which destroyed
five children, all under five, in a
shack was delayed here last week
until December.
Both Mrs. Missile Wilkerson,
owner of a wooden bus converted
into home in which the tots
burned to death, and the parents
of the children, Mrs Lilly Mae
Dean, %, and Mrs. Beatrice John
son, 10, face possible court action.
Also facing possible legal prosecu-
ton is Nathan Gullins, said to be
the father of two of the dead chill
dren.
Fatally burned in the fire which
shocked Chicago early this week
were: Marie Ellen, 3; Colleen, 1,
and Clarence, 4, children of Mrs.
Dean, and Alvin, 3, and Nathan,
8 months, son of Mrs. Johnson.
Gullis is said to be the father of
the Johnson children.
Mrs. Wilkerson probably will be
charged with violating five sec
tons of the city's building and
fire codes including the failure to
get a permit to convert the de-
stroyed bus home into a dwelling
unit. She is to appear in housing
court, Dec. 8. If found guilty she
is subject to maximum fines of
5000 and cost for each charge.
The two mothers and Gullins,
found in tavern on the night of
the deaths, may be accused of
contribution to the dependency of
their children. They will receive
hearing Dec. IL. Both mothers
were hysterical in preliminary
hearing this week.
This fire, one Of number in
Chicago which destroyed so-called
homes in Negro communities, has
caused possible city action on
stricter enforcement Of the city's
fire codes. Two local daily news
papers also are going after better
living conditions through the re-
duction Of fire traps in the city.

prepared: Organization, Admin

have statewide distribution. There
is no objection to the same group
of citizens filling out more than
one of the (three) questionnaires
except for the time required to do

organization may use one question
naire with one group of citizens,
and the other with a second. group.
The desired goal is to have each
citizen who attends a meeting dur
ing the period of the study to fill
out at least one QUESTIONABLE.
There will be some duplication, but
such is not Objectionable.
