DWINDLING POWER
OF ORGANIZED LOBBY
ere fca3 " been "no more' Health-1
ful eign In Washington in these 11
week than the sudden loss of effec
tiveness among those organized min
orities whose skilled spokesmen in
fest the capital and who until now
have been able to confuse or thwart
many of tho measures which this ad
ministration is shepherding through
congress in rapid order.
The passage Tuesday cf the se
curities bill i3 a cheering example
of the dwindling power of such lob
bies as the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States. That lobby has
tried the old and until now reliable
strategy of summoning an avalanche
of letters and wires of protest from
member chambers, many of whom
no doubt were only vaguely aware of
the merit or lack of it in the na
tional chamber's position. It suggest
ed that its members say that while
they sympathized with the purposes
of the securities measure, they be
lieved it unworkable. They were not
to say, of course, that in the last 10
years the investment bankers have
operated in this country with greater
freedom than i3 afforded them any-
v. here elzo on the glebe, with no
word of protest from the national
chamber of the monstrous activities
of many cf them.
Trc-visions that the securities seller
be civilly liabl? for misrepresenta
tion, and that the omission to state
a material fact shall come under
the definition of fraud, are particul
arly repulsive to the measure's foe3.
Tho other night a spokesman for the
investment bankers took to the air
with an alarm that anyone selling a
bond, whether a banker or private
citizen, would be bound to give ac
curately all facts relevant to its value.
Well, why not? And if all the gov
ernment i3 to require of Investment
bankers is the truth about their
gocdr, why should it paralyze their
burlness?
Itj thi.i, the Chamber of Commerce
of tho United States had a poor case
which is not itself a novelty, but un
til now thsce poor cases have had
a way, with their multitude of tele
grams and their skillful pressure, of
filling tho average legislator with
awe. It is a healthful thing that this
type cf siege is no longer to avail Irt
the old way. It is perhaps a para
dox that not until congress had hand
ed over many of its powers to the ex
ecutive for the emergency did It be
gin, in several matters, to represent
tr" o?opla cf the United States. De

THE FEARS OF BUSINESS
- Business men are asking: "How
can - we p!an-for the future,' make
commitments" Tand contrsflctSr when
there ' is so "nincET tin eeflaKTf y asr"To
what government itself is going to
do? How are we to gauge measures
affecting - management, employment
and money?'? ' .
It is true that difficult problems
are being presented to business in
terests of all classifications at this
time. The government apparently is
departing from traditions and func
tlons of the past and entering new
and untried fields of reformation and
regulation at a bewildering rate. It
i3 not easy thoroughly to digest and
understand proposed legislation be
fore it is adopted and operates as law.
Perhaps the pace is too fast. Per
haps deeper consideration and clear
er comprehension Of the measures
would result in greater benefit. Yet
we are passing through a crisis, and
the cry has been for action and lead
ership. President Roosevelt has re
sponded to this cry with far-reaching
proposals, and if there i3 apprehen
sion over the eventual outcome, there
also i3 a factor of safety in that the
extraordinary powers granted to the
chief executive are discretionary. He
can go as little or as far as he
chooses.. Business in general may be
assured, however, that it 13 the Pres
ident's evident policy not to disturb
too greatly the normal processes of
trade and industry. Mr. Roosevelt
has pledged that he will act prompt
ly to rectify mistakes of policy.
The chief danger, perhaps, lie3 in
a tendency to expect decrees of gov
ernment to accomplish the rescue
alone and in a "what'3 the use" at
titude In the face of governmental
interference where none is justified.
If the situation has any moral it is
that what has happened can be traced
back, in great part, to the habitual
difference of the average business
man to the conduct of government
In all its branches, to unethical and
to speak plainly dishonest prac
tices by big corporations, financial
institutions and political subdivi
sions.
Any reform, to be effective and
lasting, must begin with a clearing
away of many traditional ideas both
in politics and business. It will, if
properly applied,, affect what Is
known as "big business" more than
it will the little fellow, who has been
struggling along in an honest man
ner. At the same time the new ad
ministration owes it to the country
to make a clear explanation of the
steps proposed and to determine its
policy with as little delay as possible.

RATE BATTLES ON MANY FRONTS
From coast to coast and in many
interior states battles for lower util
ity rates are on. These battle3 per
tain mostly to gas and electric util
ities. All kinds of obstructions are
put in the way of conclusions. Some
fights have been won. Others still
have far to go. .
New York and New York City have
just awakened to the fact that their
electric utilities have been making
exorbitant profits rigth through the
depression. The disclosure prompted
Chairman Maltbie of the public serv
ice commission to says the commis
sion has determined to establish
temporary emergency rates wherever
the facts relating to a company, as
set forth in sworn reports to the
commission, seem to Justify. But the
chairman also feared that unless the
companies were rady to co-operate
the declaring of emergency rates
might be fruitless.
The reports show that in some in
stances the companies made larger
profits because of the depression
which put such heavy burdens on
most of their subscribers. Becaus
of economies, lower costs of material
and labor and a relatively small re
duction in the volume of service
profits were maintained or increased
in most instances.
According to the New York World
Telegram ( 120 cities in the state
have demandad relief from rates that
are far out of line with prevailing
prices and conditions. Contemplating
this situation and the defiant and
hostile attitude of utility companies
Chairman Maltbie further said:
Unless some practicable means
is found for more prompt deal
ing with rate complaints in this
extreme emergency, public regu
lation will have failed, and re
sourse will be some system which
will be moro responsive to chang
ing economic conditions. ...
Whatever may be the policy on
which the companies decide,
they must answer, not alone to
the commission, but to public
opinion.
In some states, such as Kansas, for
example, many utility companies
have responded to the Just claims for
rates consistent with economic condi
tions and the ability of ratepayers to
meet their obligations. Mostly the
responsive companies have been rela
tively small concerns. The big and
most resourceful have been the selfish
and arrogant. Kansas City Star.

" EXPECTING TOO MUCH
v &&ator. James Couzens..- i - to-be
"cn'gtaTuTaTc
a place on the American delegation
to the world economic confercne. No
one expets the conference to perform
miracles. Any progress toward the
solution of world problems will be
gratefully accepted. A failure, it 13
hoped, will be received tolerantly
This conference, even tho not en
tirely successful, may lead to another
that might bring more results.
The post which Mr. Couzens has
accepted has been refused by other
senators. Senators Johnson and La-
Pollette have both turned down
similar offer from the president. Both
are obstructionists as far as an ad
ministration foregin policy is con
cerned. Tho man who takes part In
the conference will have to defend
it3 accomplishments. Neither LaFol
lette nor Johnson wanted fo be in a
position where he had to defend any
thing so susceptible to attack as the
work of an international conference,
It is much easier, and much wiser
politically, to attack the work of a
meeting of thi3 kind.
Mr. Couzens has been independ
ent In his actions in the senate. He
is not, however, an obstructionist. He
is. willing to espouse a cause if he
believes in it. Some of his work has
been constructive.
He is not afraid to tackle a task
such as that to which the president
has assigned him. He does not expect
to accomplish wonders. The confer
ence hopes to stabilize the currencies
of the world and to eliminate those
trade barriers which are stifling
world commerce and bring depres
sion to every world power.
If any progress is made toward
that end, the participating nations
should be pleased. We cannot expect
our delegation to go to the confer
ence and wring concessions from
every nation represented. What the
world needs most i3 the recovery of
world trade. If that is brought about,
or even expedited, every nation that
engages In world commerce, will
benefit to some extent.

INSURGENCY AGAINST

To Judge by reports of the house

a lot of democratic members, inciud

cn the warpath against the presi-
dent's economy policy for veterans,
With the usual concern for minor-
itiei and the usual disregard of the
welfare of the nation as a whole, a
roup of democrats under the leader-
ship of Mr. Rankin, of Mississippi,
tried to go off the deep end and in -
stitute a direct protest to the White
house against a redutcion of vater -
ans' bencnts. Speaker Kalney ano
Representative-Woodrum. of Virginia J
succeeded in heading off this rash
venture, but an appeal to the presi-
dent had to be arranged along more
moderate lines to satisfy the insur-
Sents.

Members of congress ought at least

of the proteslants to keep a lot of

I
seriously to be feared that these gen-I

FUNDAMENTAL ERROR
n-p Twrj(vjJ' TAX LAW
i phe first congressional move to
close the hole in the Income-tax law
through which members cf the Mor-
gan firra escaped taxation in 1931
and 1932 bas taken the form of a
proposal to limit deductions for cap-
itai losses to one year instead of
the two now allowed. This proposal,
embodied In an amendment approved
yesterday by a sub-committee, does
not go to the heart of th3 issue
Adoption of such a limitation
WOuld soften the effect which a de
ciine in values now has on the re
turns from the income tax. It would
measurably reduce the opportunities
for iegal evasion of the income levy.
Rut it would not accomplish the
fundamental reform for which the
lie in the fact that taxpayers are now
allowed to spread deductions for cap-
ital losses over a two-year period,
but from the fact that the law treats
(ought to form the basi3 of income
tax policy, has been disregarded and
gains and losses from investments,
which are not a part of income at
all, are included under the same head
with rents, interest, dividends, sal
aries and wages.
To correct this fundamental error
much more will be necessary than
the ways and means subcommittee
has proposed. A segregation of the
capital gains tax from the Income
tax is called for, co that each may
(be allowed to stand on its own foot-
in g. The exact form to be given the
capital gains tax after its segrega
tion is a matter to be worked out in
the most careful study end Investiga
tion. It may be found advisable, for
example, to average up gains and
losses on capital assets over a period
