A,
Undistributed Profits
Tax Repeal Aim of
House Member
Representative Celler
Sees Revision as First
Congress Task
By WILL P. KENNEDY.
Declaring recent election results
should be interpreted as a mandate
from the country to bring about tax
relief, and that “a loss of about 80
seats by Democrats should mean an
end of ‘high-faluting’ tax meas
ures,” Representative Emanuel Cel
ler, Democrat, of New York today
announced his determination to
press in the incoming Congress for
“utter repeal of the undistributed
profits tax.” Tax revision, he in
sists, must be the first and major
task to be undertaken in the new
session.
He emphasized that partial re
form in the 1938 tax law, which
permitted corporations to reinvest
their earnings in their own enter
prise, made the public feel freer to
invest. “Recent events have shown
a decided business recovery," he
said, “a recovery that Congress must
make complete.”
Representative Celler said: “One
of the most helpful things that can
be done will be to eliminate the re
maining vestige of the undistributed
profits tax and to repeal outright
or to modify substantially the ex
isting capital gains tax. No time
should be lost in wiping out these
two forms of taxation. By this
means we can restore to private
and gainful employment thousands
of our laborers and reduce material
ly the enormous relief burden with
its accompanying high costs to the
Government.”
The New Yorx Democrat, who
after many conferences with vari
ous groups of business men sought
to have those two taxes repealed
at the last session of Congress, said
that “well-meaning but ‘half-baked
economists’ put across at the end of
1936, when undistributed profits
previously accumulated were help
ing to finance and keep going espe
cially the heavy industries, the un
distributed profits tax, which had
been shunned like the plague by
practically all other nations. This
immediately stopped a source of
capital that industry needed. No
new issues were possible. The mar
ket would not permit.”
Mr. Celler asserted that while
many factors have contributed to
the most rapid recovery in the his
tory of the United States during
the last six months, business men
and economists are in general agree
ment that no single factor made a
more vital contribution than the
revision of the tax laws at the last
session of Congress.

Local and State Bar
Units to Be Formed
To Guard Liberties
Bill of Rights Committee
Of Association Says
Plan Most Efficient
B\ the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-A commit
tee of the American Bar Association
announced yesterday it would rec
ommend to local and State bar as
sociations that they appoint their
own committees to safeguard con
stitutional liberties.
The Association's Special Bill of
Rights Committee reported "thl*
action was taken in view of the
clearly apparent fact that a na
tional committee, even if it were
desirable, would find It impossible to
investigate and deal with the large
number of alleged violations of con
stitutional rights that would be
brought to its attention.”
The committee stated its plan ^
would be recommended to all State
bar associations and to bar asso
ciations in the 37 cities of over
200.000 population. It reported such
committees already had been created
in Connecticut, Indiana, Ohio, Ver
mont and the District of Colum
bia. by the Chicago and Los An
geles Bar Association and the New
York County Lawyers’ Association.
The committee reported it had
under consideration several pend
ing litigations, including two cases
bearing upon he extent of the right
of public assembly in New Jersey.
Other prospective studies include
the problem o.' radio regulation and
censorship.
The committee urged that the
State and local committees "take
cognizance of any meritorious claim
of a violation in the State or city
of the State constitution and of
the Federal Constitution in respect
of basic rights such as freedom of
the press, speech, assembly and peti
tion or unreasonable searches and
seizures,” and to protest in the name
of the bar against "important and
clear violations of constitutional
rights in the State or city, whether
by legislative or administrative ac
tion or otherwise.”
Committee members are Douglas
Arant, Birmingham. Ala ; Prof.
Zechariah Chafee. jr.. Cambridge,
Mass.; Grenville Clark. New York;
Osmer C. Fitts. Ludlow. Vt.; Ernest
A. Green. St. Louis. Mo.: George I.
