The Chamber has authorized a special committee to en- gage a prominent lawyer of Washing- ton to bring before’ Congress a bill drawn up by the Chamber, dealing with the subject. The moral and financial support of all American chambers abroad and the foreign trade bodies in the Unitéd States is being solicited. Americans abroad are to be asked to urge, their congression- al representative toymake independent representations to Congress. ; Tho Reason ‘ The committee which, had the mat- ter in‘charge recommended that total exemption be asked for, principally for the reason .that European’ coun- tries do not tax their nationals’ éngag~ ed in business abroad, and that only total exemption will place the Amer- ican on an equal footing with Euro- pean competitors in developing Amer- ican foreign trade. 6 NORTAERN i a HOW ‘YA GONNA The argument for ‘exempetion is Afterthavesine | F8= e KEEP EM DOWN ON THE FARM ( AFTER THEY'VE SEEN PAREE ? ) INST L an: Western Electric | POWER & LIGHT and give your Boys & Girls the Comforts and conveniences of the City. ment policies, being virtualy deprived of the right to vote. \ Might Change Citizenship It is also argued that Americans i living abroad are involved in a great- ef amount of responsibility and effort {for the good of American interests, imposing a greater financial burden than would be the case at home; that while the American at; home receives preferential protection, for his busi- ness through import taxation against foreign competition, the American abroad is subject to the customs and taxes levied by this country of resi- ,;dence without any preferential: pro- tection. “| Danger that Americans abroad may relinquish their, American citizenship and adopt that of the country where they resige rather than submit to what they deem an excessive and un+ just) tax, possibility of evading the tax and unfairness this creates, and hard- ship of the tax on Americans of mod- erate means aro other reasons ad- vanced why the income tax should be abolished.

There has’ been no effort on our part to penetrate the Republi- cans with our propaganda.” Mr. Branstetter’ said that W. S.
