Hesitantly she approached a man standing on the sidewalk in front of the Willard Hotel.

Senator Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona has said that “every day we stay in ses- sion from now on is a tragedy.” Sen- ator Vandenberg, Republican, of Mich- i;an declares “the President should relax and Congress should go home.” Senator Copeland, Democrat, of New York, the physician-legislator, pre- scribes complete rest for Congress. On the other hand, those in charge | of the tax and other measures de- clared they knew of no plan to put | them off. The administration has shown a strong desire to have its program enacted at this session. | The Hcuse Ways and Means Com- | mittee has put aides to work drafting | a tax bill with specific rates. The | President, while calling for taxes on | large inheritances, increased levies on big incomes and other steps, did not suggest a schedule of rates, except in the case of corporate incomes. The Ways and Means Committee asked Lovell H. Parker, chief of staff of the Joint Congressicnal Committee on Internal Revenue, and Middleton Beaman, House legislative counsel, to try to shape up a tentative bill for | the committee’s consideration. That the job was a big one was | indicated by Chairman Doughton’s estimate that it would be next week | before the committee could go to work | on the bill. He guessed it would take the committee “about a week” to fin- ish the job. Meanwhile advocates of the excess profits tax contended such a levy Wwould be a good answer to those who | opposed a graduated corporation in- come tax. In their study of the situ- ation, they found this: There is, in the present law, a| provision which allows corporations to fix what is called the “adjusted de- | clared value” of their capital. On| that they are allowed a 121 per| cent profit. All income above the | 121, per cent is subject to a 5 per| cent tax. PLAY SQUASH EN ROUTE TO ] Play tennis on your ocean-route to Bali.
