D A BURDEN

JUST WHEN WE are about to see the light along comes
a legislative measure which would cut the very grass from
under our feet, and set back the hands Of the clock. The re-
moval Of tax benefits to business can, and will strike a severe
blow to the economy Of these Islands and impose an undue
burden on our people.
IN LOOKING AT this situation fairly and squarely, no
effort can, Of is being made to sponsor any loopholes which
certain taxpayers might have opened for themselves. As
general rule, the very ones who have the faciliaeSa and know
how are the ones who can make good use Of these tax advan-
tages. However, in tightening down on certain seeming vio-
lators the result might be to impose q most heavy burden on
the less fortunate, who perhaps neither want, nor have the
information 70 take advantage Of these ~loopholes,
IS CONCEDED here.that there might be practices
which a bill in Congress could j~ustfably eliminate The bone
Of contention, however, is what the bill will do 70 business as
a whole, including the hotel business upon which 50 much
depends. A bill which strikes at these might be the killing Of
the goose that laid the golden egg.
THE GOVERNOR IS taking the perfectly logical step in
in line With the bill in Congress. That would strengthen our
hand IN seeking any concessions, once a portion Of the main
bill IS adhered to. At the same time the Chambers Of Com
merce should 90 forward, working harder than ever to avoid
what could be most unfortunate situation.
HEREAGAIN IS a shining example Of the need for q
Resident Commissioners. With such an Office in Washington
advance information would have come, and the necessary
ground work could have been started to bring about at least
certain amendments which would take the teeth out Of the
bill, vet giving the Treasury what it wanted.
