TAX BILL FIGHT
THREATENS PLANS
(Continued From Page One)
donment of the gold sterilization
progra m
Secretary of the 'Treasury Henry
Morgenthatt Jr announced that the
program which was instituted in
1936 as a brake of credit inflation
was ended and thnt in the future
gold Required by the Government
will be permitted to enter credit
channels
Simultaneously Jesse H Jones
chairmen of the Reconstruction Fi-
name Corp appealed to banks in
a radio address to join the Govern-
ment in extending credit to aid
business As head of one of the
"big three" agencies enlisted in the
President's attack on the depres-
sicm he said that the RFC would
direct its S1500000000 into fields
where it will increase employment
Will Watch Flow
The treasury's action was the
latest in a series of steps taken by
various fiscal a(zencies of the Gov-
ernment to expand credit supple-
menting the President's $4512000-
000 spending-lending program
In announcing abandonment of
gold sterilization Morgenthau in-
dicated that if the gold inflow
scmin reached proportions that
threatened the nation's credit struc-
ture the treasury was prepared to
revert to sterilization
As this announcoment was made
R halt was called in the secret con-
ferences on the tax bill to permit
0 Douglas chairman of the
Securities and Exchange COMMIS-
dion to exnlain provisions added to
the tax bill by the Senate for the
ourpose of helping power companies
rearrange their assots to comply
with the "death sentence" of the
tiolding Company Act
Mr Douglas explained this before
the Senate finance committee and
his printed testimony is available
for House conferees but they in-
slated upon hearing him in person1
This unprecedented interruption of
a conference was reported to be
nart of Mr Doughton's strategy of
delay
'Time Is Factor
Sen Harrison would like to avoid
a knock-down-and-drag-out fight
on the floors of House and Senate I
and it may be that some compro-
mise can be worked out eventually
'Time would work for President
Roosevelt for if the controversy
dragged on toward the end of Con-
gress business would prefer to have
a compromise rather than see the
bill die in conference which would
leave the undistributed-profits tax
In its present state
Threats that the President would
veto the bill if Congress eliminated
the undistributed-profit a tax princi-
ple are not taken very seriously
but such threats nevertheless are
sometimes effective in forcing a
compromise
Them 'Sore Spot' in
Safety Program
--
The highway beer parlor is the
sore spot in the traffic safety pro-
gram of thei Highway Patrol A -
cord In g to State Commissioner J M
Gentry
Fle criticized the highway night
spots loday when asked what he
thought about the petition to repeal
the 32 beer law The petition is
being circulated by W J Lminger
state superintendent of the Anti-
Saloon League
"Based On evidence found Rt the
scene of most fatal accidents and
on reports given me by the high-
way patrolmen who investigated I
am convinced that at least 40 per
cent of Oklahoma highway fatalities
are directly attributable to liquor
In Nome form" the commissioner
deelared
"In many instances people drive
out 10 15 or 20 miles to these
places drink for several hours then
get in their cars to drive home a
menace to everyone on the road and
to themselves most of all" he said
The commissioner cited the action
taken recently by County Judge
Jerry Crowley of Garfield County
who closed all roadside taverns
operating on highways near Enid
"The highway tavern operator
who sells beer to persons until they
are not fit to operate a car are
morally responsible for any acci-
dents those persons may have the
commissioner said
