Mr.. Flynn sat down like tired elephant,

NAN Tells Senator's
Tax Burden .Sfymies
Economic Expansion
By J. A. o'Leory

The National Association OF
Manufacturers told the Senate
Finance Committee today eco
nomic growth and expansion can
not be expected without Sub
stantial moderation" Of the tax
burden especially where it taxes
away potential sources Of new
capital.
Fred Maytag, chairman Of the
associations tax committee. gave
enthusiastic support to the
pending general overhaul Of the
tax laws, but suggested some
changes.
The business group is not re-
sisting the one-year extension Of
the So per cent tax rate on
corporations, which was due to
drop 5 percentage points this
month. But it strongly urged
the reduction next April.
Oppose Exemption Change.
The NAM went on record
against an increase in the $500
personal exemption for each tax
payer and dependent, which
some Democrats will make a
fight for in the Senate. The
manufacturers said this would
concentrate the tax burden on
fewer citizens and postpone
perhaps indefinitely the oppor-
tunity for income-tax rate re-
ductions.
Mr.. Maytag said the House
report on the pending bill argued
that it will reduce ''tax barriers
to future expansion of produc-
ton and employment" Mr..
Maytag added:
"On the whole, we concur, but
we do wish to point out that
these tax reforms are in no way
a substitution for the rate re-
duction job which lies ahead"
The pending bill seeks to
stimulate business expansion by
reducing the double taxation of
dividends, allowing new methods
of handling depreciation, and
closing a variety of loopholes in
existing tax laws which were
passed piecemeal over more
than half a century.
Wants Provis0 Changed.
In regard to the accumulation
of earnings beyond the reason
able needs of a corporation the
NAM approved the House provi-
sion making a nominal" shift
in the burden of proof on this
question. Mr.. Maytag said he
used the word nominal" because
the House bill contains a proviso
which could nullify the change
in burden Of proof. He urged
deletion Of the proviso.
The NAM also recommended

The neighbor's child, Linda

a change from January IS tc
January 81 in the filing date
for the final declaration of esti-
mated tax and payment of the
fourth installment. Mr.. Maytag
said January 81 is the final date
for placing W. forms in the
hands of employees. He said the
change in date would encourage
more taxpayers to file final re-
turns in January in lieu OF
amended estimates.
The Finance Committee hopes
to complete public hearings on
the big tax revision bill this
week. It will then face several
weeks of closed sessions, to act
on hundreds of requests for
amendments which have been
submitted by various industrial
groups.
