Dawson Denies
RFC Probe Fiqht
By White House
Says One Of Letters
Obtained by Truman
Criticized Probers
By Robert K. Walsh

FreSlQenClal Assistant Donald
Dawson insisted to a Senate sub
committee today that the White
House made no move to block
the investigation of the Recon-
struction Finance Corp. or spread
rumors to discredit investigators.
He disclosed that one of the
several hundred letters recently
obtained by President Truman
from the RFC criticized subcom-
mittee staff members. That letter
was from former RFC Chairman
w. Elmer Harder, whereas prac-
tically all of the others were from
members of Congress to RFC con-
corning loan applications.
In his long-awaited appearance
before the Banking subcommit-
tee investigating influence on
RFC, Mr.. Dawson swore that he
never abused his Office to in
fluence the awarding of RFC
loans. He also declared he had
no part in a request by David K.
Niles, another White House aide,
to have the subcommittee Ego
easy" on him.
Unaware of Hotel Loan.
Earlier, Mr.. Dawson asserted
that when he accepted free hos
pitality at the Saxony Hotel in
Miami Beach, Fla, on three &C.
casions in 1949 and 1850 he did
not know the hotel had borrowed
money from RFC.
Mr.. Dawson said:
ITO the best of my knowledge,
l have done nothing in connection
with the RFC that is improper in
any way"
Senator Fulbright, Democrat, OF
Arkansas, chairman of the SUBJ
committee, asked him if appoint
ments to the RFC board first were
cleared at Democratic National
Committee headquarters.
Yes, they were cleared" MIR
Dawson said.
Members of the board were
criticized in a subcommittee re-
port which said they yielded te
influence" in handling loan ap-
pllcations. The report named
Mr.. Dawson as one of those who
exerted influence.
Denies Influencing Loans.
Senator Fulbright wanted te
know if any positions were filled
by persons named by the Demo-
cratic Committee.
Mr.. Dawson spared with the
question for a moment, and Their
said:
We'll, we didn't hold it against
them"
He denied that he ever triec

dealings with any of the othe]
persons described by the subcom.

Niles requested former Senate,
Burton K. Wheeler, Democrat, O.
Montana, to ask that Senate

81 Billion Boost
In Corporate Tax
Backs 5-Point Jump
Across the Board
In Normal Rates
By the Associated Press

Committee tentatively approved a
$1,000, 100000 increase in corpora
ton taxes today.
Members voted to increase the
normal tax rate by five points
across the board.
The administration had asked
for an eight-point increase, which

$40 Billion Tex Boost Asked by Keyserlins
to Curb New Inflotion. Poee ABB
the Treasury estimated would have
brought in SO billion a year above
present revenues.
Coupled with So billion in
crease in individual income taxes
voted yesterday, the committee in
two days has found more than IS
billion of the additional $40 bill
lion revenue President Truman has
asked to keep the defense effort
on a pay-as-you-go basis.
G. o. P. Substitute Rejected.
The individual increase-3 per-
centage points across the board
in each tax bracket-was adopted
by a close margin. That means
an increase of about Is per
cent in the actual amount Of
taxes persons in the lower income
brackets would pay. For persons
in the $500,00-a-year class, the
boost would be about 3 per cent.
According to reports coming
from the closed session, the tally
was 13 to IL for the increase, with
two Democrats joining the 10
committee Republicans in oppo-
sition. No names were announced.
It also was reported. however.
that the Republicans lost out, Is
to 10, on a straight party-line
division on a substitute plan which
would have simply increased each
taxpayers obligation by 10 per
cent. Such an increase would have
had lighter impact on smaller
taxpayers than the plan tenta-
lively adopted.
The administration had sought
an increase of four percentage
points in each bracket, for an
estimated SO billion additional
revenue yearly.
Special Relief for Widows.
! If finally approved by the
House and Senate, the three
point increase will raise taxes of
a married man with two de-
tpendents and an income Of $1,000
before exemptions from $500 o
year to 1898. For a $4,000 man
the new tax would be $500, COM
pared with 1882 at present.
Individual income taxes have
already been raised once since
the Korean war started. The
boost was effective last October /.
The tax-drafting committee APP
proved special relief for single
persons who are the heads Of
families for example.
Although details are still to be
worked out. such persons would
get approximately half the tax
advantage now enjoyed by mar
ried couples with the same income
who take advantage of the in
come splitting provision of the
1913 revenue law.

Louisville: Can one speak of an
army as being debauchedP-Mrs.
s. r. c.
Answer: Well, certainly not of an
American army
The French once used the word
bauche to mean shop" and the
verb debaucher meant Ito lure
away from a shop" hence. to cor
rupt. Debaucher entered English as
debauch, which came to mean Ito
lead sway from purity, excellence,
or virtue" A debauched army, then,
would be one whose excellence had
been undermined.
Fort Wayne: Recently I ordered
some merchandise by letter. I re-
ceived a reply stating that I had
not stipulated the correct sizes. Is
the word stipulate used correctly in
that SenSe?-R. L.
Answer: Stipulate has come to
be used loosely as a synonym for
specify. Strictly speaking, however,
to stipulate means to state con-
dition of an agreement.
Etymologists are not in agree
ment as to the exact origin of stip-
ulate. Trench and Shipley trace it
to the Latin stipula, meaning
STRAW" because. they say, it was a
Roman custom that when two per-
sons made an agreement, they
would break a straw between them
which amounted to binding the ora
agreement.

DR.. w. w. Skeat says not so. His
theory is that stipulate comes from

But post" or straw" all agree
