Keriaion of Tax Laws
The President’s actibn in pointing
put ways which some wealthy men
have wed to avoid payment of in
comes taxes, has opened up the ques
tion of revisiomof the tax laws, which
leaders in both houses of congress
have hoped to postpone until next
session. Once the subject is-taken up
for consideration in any phase, the
door is opened for "almost unlimited
discussion. Thera are scores of ‘^pet”
tax itifiiisures which individual sena-(
tors and representatives want to
bring forwarrd; but the plan of the
leaders is to postpone all. of them for
consideration by the appropriate com
mittees and to try ta,w.ork out a corn-
tors employes were left idle when
three plants—at Detroit,* Cleveland
and^Bay City. Mich.,—closed down^
becaiise of shortage in automobile
castings.
t. United Mine Workers officials
announced that approximately 12,-
000 workers have answered a call to

Some-20 mines', the announcement
said, have been closed.

Another reason why congress does
not want to open the tax subject now
is .the belief that, given a chance,

The President’s proposal for federal
regulation of hours and wages, which
has 'been enrbodied in bills by Sena^

piecemeal restoration of- parte of the
old NRA. It "attempts to do fdr in

the streikin of interstate commerce,

practically all industry in the matter
