WA8HINOTON. May 28—l/Pi-An
old line southern Democrat—Sena-
tor Pat Harrison of Mississippi, told
the senate today President Room>-
velt was all wrong when he cri-
ticized the new tax law.
Harrison, chairman of the senate
committee which helped write the
tax revision measure, replied to
criticism voiced by Mr. Roosevelt
yesterday In a speech at Arthur-
dale. W. Va.
Waving his long arms to em-
phasise his words, he said:
"Congress framed this tax leg-
islation to help business. I only
hope that what we have expected
will not be dampened or thrown
away by this speech the president
made yesterday.”
Mr Roosevelt permitted the 15.-
000.000.000 revenue measure to be-
come law last night without his
signature, declaring he did not want
to seem to favor the abandonment
of an Important principle of Amer-
ican taxation"
Law Continue* Levy
This was an obvious reference to
the undistributed profits tax which
the president consistently has ad-
vocated and many business spokes-
men criticised. The new law con-
tinues this levy for two years In
drastically modified form.
Harrison Mid Mr Roosevelt had
been "misinformed" In arguing the
new flat rate capital gains taxes
did not bear on the big and little
taxpayer In proportion to their
ability to pay.
Harrison expressed regret Mr.
Roosevelt had let the new tax bill
become law without signing It
Veto Preferred
“I would have much perferred
that he had Mid he dldnt like
those < undistributed snd capital
gains) provisions snd vetoed the
bill," the senator Mid. “I have
no fear of what would have hap-
pened in the American congress."
This statement was Interpreted a*
a contention congress would have
overridden the veto.
The new tax law. the Mississip-
pi Democrat declared, "should un-
freeze much of the credit of this
country and be roost helpful iu

ed to relieve unemployment dis-
