National Topics Interpreted National Press Bullding Washington.—It is often the trick of political spokesmen to let their real feelings become known by a . statement that Taxation makes no definite Problem reference to the broader policies in which they are interested. Such a statement was that made lately by Sen. Pat Harrison, Mississippi Dem- ocrat, with reference to what the senate will do on the pending tax bill. At least, nearly all of the ob- servers here who know the lovable Pat Harrison were quite convinced that, when he said the senate would grant business relief from unfair taxes, he actually was proclaiming ident Roosevelt. This question of taxation is one with which the New Dealers are gravely concerned; they are just and the country as a whole. But they are concerned for a different Sane minds throughout the country long ago began to beg con- and the administration to make changes in the tax laws to permit business to go forward with New ‘““tory’’ or some other one of the va- After so long a however, the New Dealers sary—and then began the greatest to be house When word went to the could make modifications in the two pet New Deal tax laws, the ageing Doughton, of that com- mittee, followed instructions. Of | course, there were seventeen Demo- crats and seven Republicans on the | committee and that enabled the New Deal to carry out its plans for | “modification’” of tax laws—and to save faces. Regular Democrats and Republicans in the committee mem- | bership still were in the minority in the house of representatives, and the New Dealers had their way. The tax bill debate in the house never- | theless told of more slaps at the administration that lay ahead. At this point in the developments, Senator Harrison enters upon‘ the | stage. He is chairman of the sen- | ate committee on finance. His state- | ment, therefore, that the 1938 tax bill is going to give some basis upon which business can break even, at | least, can be taken as indicative of the final form of that law when it | emerges from congress. The house, under the lash of White House lob- byists, managed to hold part of the | ways and means commitiee draft | in its original shape while losing other parts of it. Thus, when the senate has acted and the bill is sent to conference committees for ad- justment of the differences, it is rather plain to see how Democrats | and Republicans are certain to over- ride New Deal face-saving. » . » I have written much in these col- umns about present tax policies heretofore. There is little need to re- peat the facts | which continue to be important factors in the develop- ment of the Roosevelt depression. on undistributed fathered by the radical Harrison Speaks Out earnings, again, corporations obviously are and every time there is a wage But what is an employer going to do? Go broke, be it a dollar or a million. So, when Senator Harrison spoke out boldly that something was go- ing to be done to eliminate some of the obstacles which wishful thinking New Dealers have built up in their experimentation, it means, I be- lieve, that Senator Harrison pro- poses to do just that. The politics of the situation is an- other matter. That phase is equally important and significant. Senator Harrison would not have spoken out a few years ago, or even a year ago, as he has done lately. The house a year ago would never have rejected what has been called the “third basket” of taxation. (The so- called third basket was a new type of tax that would have made the rates sky-high on corporations held by only a few stockholders, family- owned corporations like thousands of small companies usually are.) No, the house would not have killed that a year ago, but it did this year. And, when Senator Harrison dared to say congress will do thus and so, Senator Harrison was simply voic- ing a fact. He was saying, in ef- fect, “Whether you like it or not, Mr. President, we will write the tax law in the interest of the country as we see it.” In the course of the tax bill de- bate in the house, there was a curi- ous disclosure, a rather biting piece of debate. Representative Tread- way, who would be chairman of the ways and means committee if Re- publicans were in the majority in- stead of being only a handful, told the house that the father of the sur- plus earnings tax had never come before the committee since the time he laid out the silly scheme which led to its enactment, Pro- fessor Oliphant has been so silent about his sponsorship of the plan that it has become almost thunder- ous. And Mr. Treadway thought it was unusual that a parent should shrink from acknowledgment of parenthood. He obtained no answer or explanation. The surplus earn- ings tax, in a modified form, was still in the bill as reported to the house, however, and there was suf- ficient New Deal strength in the house to hold it there. It will be different in the senate, and the speech by Senator Harrison simply is an announcement in advance. \d » * It has been interesting to me to review these facts because I am in- clining to the opin- Healthy ion that the situa- Sign tion in congress is more or less a re- flection of the opinion in the entire country. The November elections lie ahead. Mail from home is pour- ing in, and the character of that mail is always closely studied by the politician seeking re-election. That is to say, the average house member or senator is keeping very close tab on what the feeling is back They were not put to that of Mr. Roosevelt's administration. ber to say that the President wants this or that, and vote that way. So clearly has all of this been made apparent that few who so de- sire afraid any longer to assert themselves—to say what they stration op- sign. It going are position. It is a healthy that congress, while along with Mr. Roosevelt many times, will put more and more checks on his proposals that have their birth in the little red house, of Georgetown's section of Washington, where all of the New Dealers congregate. It means fur. ther—in the opinion of some of the real Democrats—that the New Deal has played out. They are, there- fore, getting back into their harness as Democratic leaders. And, in this light, there has been another development that should not be overlooked. 1 refer to the col- lapse of Robert H. Jackson's can- didacy for governor of New York. When Mr. Jackson, who lately was made solicitor general of the United States, was ‘‘going to town’ as the expression is, left wing press agents had him all but elected in New York. A big banquet was tendered him in New York city. Mr. Roose- velt was quite instrumental in that banquet plan. He lent aid in stir- ring up attendance. It was notable, however, that the banquet created no excitement. That is, there was no excitement of importance, and just there the candidacy began to sag. » » * I do not know what the real rea- son was for Mr. Jackson's subse- quent statement that he would not seek the New York Ignores Farley just possible, however, that the ab- sence of Postmaster General Farley from the banquet sponsorship had flop the dinner and candidacy sure- ly did. Now, everyone around Wash- ington knows that Mr. Roosevelt no longer takes the postmaster gen- eral into the executive confidence, even though Mr. Farley is chairman of the Democratic national commit- tee. eral widely read columns that Mr. Roosevelt actually distrusted Mr. Farley. 1 would not be able to re- port on that detail, but I can not overlook the fact that left wingers, especially the long-haired group, months. It is just possible, then, that they have persuaded Mr. Roosevelt to the point of conviction. He has listened to that group a very him feel that Mr. Farley is under- mining the President. In any event, one may follow the tax pronouncement by Senator Har- rison right on through the signifi- cant silence of Mr. Farley. One may find how Mr. Farley has had numerous and sundry conferences, or chance meetings, with a good many powerful old-line Democrats. But to examine the thing from a congressional angle again, I am pleased by the defection, the es- tablishment of the line of demarca- tion between Democrats and New Dealers. Not that I care who runs the government, or is charged with responsibility. My interest lies deep- er. I know from having watched the wheels go ‘round that too great a majority of one party in con- gress produces bad laws.
