All Tax Bureau
Heads Included
In Investigation
Inquiry in Recess;
CoudIe to Return
To Stand Monday
By Cecil HoIIond

House investigators of tax scan
dals are obviously looking into
the conduct of all important Of
flclalS in the Bureau of Internal
Revenue" Chief Counsel Adrian
w. De Wind said this afternoon
Mr.. De Wind made the state.
ment at news conference when
asked if the House Ways and
Means subcommittee is investi-
eating the activities of Charles
Oliphant, chief counsel of the
revenue bureau.
The subcommittee took a week
end recess in its public hearings
on the activities of former Assist
ant Attorney General Theron
Lamar Caudle, who was chief of
the Justice Departments tax di-
vision until he was ousted two
weeks ago by President Truman.
Mr.. De Wind said the recess was
taken to give the subcommittee
time to look into some files and
matters"
Files Received Recently
The files, he added. were from
the Justice Department, and have
been in the possession of the sub
committee for only a short time
It was indicated that they include
a number of anonymous letters
suggesting that a"f1x" would be
attempted in a New York tax
fraud case.
Mr.. De Wind told reporters that
the conduct of Mr.. Oliphant's Of
fee is IAN integral part" of the
subcommittee investigation of
the Governments handling of tax
fraud cases.
Mr.. Oliphant's Office passes on
tax fraud cases sent to the Justice
Department for prosecution by
the division formerly headed by
Mr.. Caudle. Both Mr.. Caudle and
Mr.. Oliphant were questioned in
a day-long session yesterday about
the New York tax case.
Mr.. De Wind also said:
l. The Subcommittee's hearings
with Mr.. Caudle as the witness
will be resumed Monday morning.
No Plans to Call McGrath.
2. No plans have been made by
the subcommittee to call Attorney
General McGrath in connection
with Mr. Caudle's testimony about
the New York case and his state
ment that Mr.. McGrath had ap-
proved his receiving a $4,000 COM
mission on an airplane.
3. One or more witnesses in
Chicago have been subpoenaed-I
an indication that the ramifica-
tions of the Caudle hearing might
extend to cases or persons from
the Midwest.
Mr.. De Wind said he thought
there might be 1.-TWO or three
more cases" to be brought up IN
the Caudle hearings. He indicated
the hearings might go on all
next week.
Mr.. Caudle, who was fired by
President Truman two weeks ago,
was the central figure of a lengthy
House ways and means subcom-
mittee hearing yesterday as on
the three previous days.
The subcommittee's inquiry into
the case he referred to involved
an admission by Mr.. Caudle
that he had accepted $4,000 as a
commission on the sale of an air.

New Workers later convicted of
tax fraud.

top Federal officials concerned

Now Irip|ing RATE Of
Year Ago, Wilson Say,
Defense MobiIizer Worms
OF Less Butter in Talk
To European Visitors

Defense Mobilizer Charles E
Wilson disclosed today that arm:
deliveries are now three times
what they were a year ago.
At the same time he warned:
From now on it will be not sc
much of guns and butter but OF
guns and less butter or guns and
margarine.
His statements were made in a
address before the In
ternational Management Produc-
tivity Mission at the Shoreham
Hotel. This is a group of 900
Western European industrialists
who have been surveying Ameri-
can industry under auspices of
the Mutual Security Agency.
Mr.. Wilson said deliveries of
supplies now total nearly
81 billion a month. He said that
from now on this will rise steadily
to peak of about 81 billion a
month in 1853. OF present deliv-
cries. he said:
I'VE are going to produce not
only everything that is needed to
supply our current forces, as well
as to ship arms to our Allies, but
we are going to establish standby
facilities and reserve production
lines that can instantly be ex-
panded to provide for the needs
of all-out war if-and may God
forbid!-it should occur"
Seeks to Dispel Fears.
Mr.. Wilson sought to dispel any
fear that when the United States
reaches the peak of it's productive
strength in 1953-54 it would dump
its surplus on the rest of the
world. He said this country
would be able to absorb virtually
all the output of expanded indus
try, good part of which would
be used for continued armament
production.
Mr.. Wilson explained that we
have sought to keep our civilian
economy at a wholesome, If re-
duced, rate.

have thrown millions out of work,
