ANNUAL  REPORT  ON  THE  FINANCES 


Treasury  Department, 
Washington,  D.  C,  January  3,  1945. 

Sir:  I  have  the  honor  to  make  the  followhig  report  on  the  finances 
of  the  Federal  Government  for  the  fiscal  year  ended  June  30,  1944. 

From  the  commencement  of  the  national  defense  program  in  1940 
to  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  1943,  the  Federal  Government's  expendi- 
tures for  war  purposes  and  its  receipts  each  advanced  steadily  and 
rapidly.  Expenditures  for  peacetime  purposes  declined  substantially, 
expressed  as  a  percentage  of  their  former  level;  but  this  contraction 
was  small  in  amount  compared  with  the  huge  totals  of  wartime  outlays 
and  taxation. 

By  the  beginning  of  the  fiscal. year  1944,  the  annual  rate  of  war 
expenditures  had  nearly  stabilized,  as  the  Nation  approached  its 
effective  production  potential  and  this  stability  is  likely  to  continue 
at  least  through  the  fiscal  year  1945. 

The  annual  rate  of  Federal  receipts  during  the  fiscal  year  1944 
covered  somewhat  less  than  half  of  total  expenditures,  and  it  appears 
that  approximately  the  same  relationship  will  obtain  during  the  fiscal 
year  1945. 

I  said  in  my  report  last  year,  and  I  still  believe,  tha^,  it  would  be 
better  for  the  economy  of  the  United  States  and  fairer  to  the  men  in 
the  armed  forces  if  a  larger  portion  of  the  current  cost  of  the  war 
were  paid  for  by  taxation.  Congress  has  decided  otherwise,  however; 
and  there  appears  to  be  little  likelihood  of  a  substantial  upward  revi- 
sion in  our  tax  system  during  the  continuance  of  the  present  conflict. 
I  believe  that  the  time  is  opportune,  therefore,  to  review  the  impact  of 
the  wartime  fiscal  operations  of  the  Federal  Government  on  the  na- 
tional economy,  and  to  consider,  in  broad  outline,  some  of  the  steps 
which  should  be  taken  to  adjust  these  operations  to  the  new  conditions 
which  will  prevail  when  victory  is  finally  achieved. 

The  following  table  summarizes  the  receipts  and  expenditures  of 
the  Federal  Government  for  the  fiscal  years  1940  through  1945

Note. — Figures  are  rounded  and  will  not  necessarily  add  to  totals. 

'  Figures  are  on  the  basis  of  classifications  appearing  in  the  1946  Budget  Message.  They  include  net  ex- 
penditures of  Government  corporations  and  the  totals  are  not,  therefore,  the  same  as  the  figures  in  certain 
other  tables  in  this  report.    They  exclude  statutory  debt  retirements  and  trust  funds. 

2  Includes  only  Treasury  outlays  for  the  war  activities  of  the  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  and  its 
affiliates.    Figures  are  excess  of  expenditures  over  receipts. 

3  Comprises  principally  Treasury  outlays  for  Commodity  Credit  Corporation,  Home  Owners'  Loan 
Corporation,  and  nonwar  activities  of  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  and  its  affiliates.  Figures  are 
excess  of  expenditures  over  receipts.    Negative  figures  indicate  excess  of  receipts. 

*  Net  budgetary  receipts,  i.  e.,  total  receipts  less  net  appropriation  to  Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insur- 
ance trust  fund. 

The  figures  on  expenditures  shown  in  the  table  inchide  both  budge- 
tary expenditures  and  net  outlays  made  by  the  Treasury  for  the 
operation  of  Government  corporations.  The  figures  for  the  fiscal 
years  1940  through  1944  reflect  actual  results.  Those  for  the  fiscal 
year  1945  are  the  estimates  presented  in  the  Budget  Message  of  the 
President. 

The  table  shows  that  Federal  Government  expenditures  for  war 
purposes  rose  rapidly  from  $1.7  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1940,  the 
last  fiscal  year  before  the  beginning  of  the  national  defense  program, 
to  $89.7  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  For  the  fiscal  year  1945, 
war  expenditures  are  estimated  to  remain  almost  unchanged  at  $89.0 
bilhons. 

Net  receipts  advanced  from  $5.4  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1940  to 
$44.1  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  and  are  estimated  to  remain 
almost  unchanged  at  $45.7  billions  for  the  fiscal  year  1945. 

The  excess  of  expenditures  over  receipts  amounted  to  $51.1  billions 
for  the  fiscal  year  1944,  and  is  estimated  at  $54.0  billions  for  the 
fiscal  year  1945.  This  excess  of  expenditures  had  been  as  high  as 
$57.4  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943,  however. 

A  rough  measure  of  the  impact  of  Federal  fiscal  operations  on  the 
national  economy  may  be  made  by  relating  expenditures  and  receipts 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


to  the  total  production  of  goods  and  services,  known  as  the  gross 
national  product.^     This  is  done  in  the  following  table.

The  gross  national  product  has  tended  to  stabilize  at  about  $200 
billions,  apparentl}''  reflecting  the  approach  to  our  effective  wartime 
productive  capacity.  It  is  estimated  that  Federal  expenditures 
during  the  fiscal  year  1945  will  be  about  50  percent  of  the  gross  national 
product.  Federal  receipts  will  amount  to  about  23  percent  of  the 
product;  and  the  excess  of  expenditures,  to  about  27  percent.  These 
proportions  are  approximately  the  same  as  in  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

An  excess  of  Federal  Government  expenditures  over  Federal  Gov- 
ernment receipts,  amounting  to  27  percent  of  the  gross  national  product, 
means  that  an  amount  of  income  corresponding  to  that  proportion  of 
the  gross  product  is  paid  out,  which  the  recipients  may  spend  or  save 
as  they  choose;  but  that  the  earning  of  this  income  gives  rise  to  no 
corresponding  flow  of  civilian  goods  and  services  upon  which  it  can  be 
spent.  A  corresponding  proportion  of  the  total  income  flow^  created 
by  the  gross  national  product  must,  therefore,  be  saved  by  the  people 
if  a  rise  in  prices  is  to  be  averted. 

The  experience  of  the  past  three  years  has  shown  us  that,  with  the 
aid  of  appropriate  controls,  and  thanks  to  the  common  sense  of  the 
American  people,  this  higher  rate  of  savings  can  be  attained  in  fact, 
and  economic  stabilization  thereby  achieved.  I  believe  that,  with 
suitable  controls,  and  with  the  continued  cooperation  of  the  people 
with  the  stabilization  program,  inflation  can  and  will  be  avoided 
tlu-oughout  the  rest  of  the  war  period  and  during  the  post-war 
adjustment. 

Factors  in  the  stabilization  'program 

Federal  receipts  from  taxation  have  increased  eightfold  since  1940. 
The  major  proportion  of  the  remaining  excess  money  incomes  that 
might  otherwise  have  exerted  an  inflationary  pressure  has  been  in- 
vested in  war  bonds,  or  retained  unspent  as  liquid  savings.     And  the 

1  Federal  Government  receipts  and  expenditures  are  not  strictly  comparable  with  gross  national  product 
estimates  without  certain  technical  adjustments.  These  adjustments,  however,  are  sufficiently  small, 
for  the  period  covered,  to  permit  them  to  be  omitted  in  this  discussion.  See  section  on  Sources  of  Funds 
for  Federal  Borrowing,  which  begins  on  p.  79,  for  further  discussion  of  the  relationship  of  Federal  fiscal 
operations  to  the  rest  of  the  economy. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


direct  controls  over  consumption  and  prices — rationing,  allocations, 
price  ceilings,  etc.— have  prevented  the  cumulation  of  cost  and  price 
increases.  While  the  removal  of  purchasing  power  from  the  market 
by  wartime  taxes  and  savings  campaigns  has  contributed  greatly  to 
the  success  of  the  direct  controls,  the  direct  controls  at  the  same  time 
have  facilitated  and  strengthened  the  effectiveness  of  the  taxation  and 
savings  programs.  In  short,  the  wartime  level  of  taxes,  the  war  loans 
and  other  savings  campaigns  and  the  direct  controls  have  formed  an 
interrelated  program,  each  part  of  which  has  been  essential  to  the 
whole. 

The  following  table  shows  the  increase  in  the  gross  public  debt 
and  guaranteed  obligations  during  each  of  the  fiscal  years  1940  tlirough 
1944,  the  amount  of  this  increase  held  unspent  in  the  General  Fund  of 
the  Treasury,  and  the  amount  absorbed  by  nonbank  investors,  respec- 
tively. The  remainder  of  the  debt  increase,  after  making  the  deduc- 
tions just  referred  to,  represents  funds  borrowed  directly  or  indirectly 
from  the  banking  system  and  actually  spent  by  the  Government 
during  the  period.  This  includes  the  entire  portion  of  the  expenditures 
of  the  Federal  Government  which  resulted  in  the  creation  of  currency 
and  deposits  in  commercial  banks  (including  time  deposits)  during 
each  period.  As  shown  in  the  table.  Federal  expenditures  resulting 
in  an  increase  in  currency  and  deposits  amounted  to  7  percent  of  the 
gross  national  product  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  compared  with  14 
percent  in  the  preceding  year.  This  sharp  fall  was  caused  in  part, 
however,  by  the  fact  that  two  complete  w^ar  loan  drives  and  the  major 
portion  of  a  third  fell  within  the  fiscal  year  1944,  with  the  result  that 
the  proportion  of  nonbank  absorption  of  the  debt  in  that  year  was 
liigher  than  it  would  have  been  otherwise. 

Comparison,  with  the  gross  national  product,  of  the  portion  of  the  increase  in  the 
Federal  debt  which  residted  in  the  creation  of  bank  deposits  and  currency  in  the

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY         5 

By  no  means  all  of  the  increase  in  the  debt  absorbed  by  the  banking 
system  has  contributed  to  net  inflationary  pressure.  A  large  in- 
crease in  currency  and  bank  deposits  was  required  by  the  doubling  of 
the  gross  national  product  which  took  place  during  the  period;  and 
this  necessary  increase  in  money  supply  could  be  furnished,  under 
existing  statutes,  only  by  a  substantial  absorption  of  debt  by  the 
banking  system.  Also,  individuals  and  corporations  paid  back  sub- 
stantial amounts  of  debt,  including  debt  held  by  the  banking  system, 
offsetting  in  part  the  increase  in  commercial  bank  holdings  of  Govern- 
ment securities;  and  increased  their  savings  deposits  in  commercial 
banks  substantially  during  the  period.  In  the  case  of  many  business 
enterprises,  the  proceeds  of  inventory  liquidation  and  depreciation  are 
held  in  the  form  of  deposits  to  facilitate  reinvestment  in  the  post-war 
period.  Furthermore,  experience  has  shown  that  a  large  proportion 
of  the  demand  deposits  and  currency  accumulated  by  individuals  and 
corporations  during  this  period  has  been  regarded  by  its  owners  as 
part  of  their  permanent  savings  and  has  not  entered  into  active  cir- 
culation for  the  purchase  of  goods  and  services. 

Tax.  policy 

Our  wartime  tax  policy  has  been  to  adapt  the  tax  structure  to 
achieve  important  wartime  objectives. 

Through  heavy  wartime  taxes  a  large  part  of  the  financial  cost  of 
the  war  is  being  paid  currently  by  wartime  civilians  instead  of  being 
deferred  to  be  met  by  returning  service  men  and  women.  The  large 
revenue  collections  during  the  war  are  restricting  the  growth  of  the 
debt,  thereby  moderating  post-war  fiscal  and  economic  problems.  By 
channeling  billions  of  dollars  of  spending  power  into  the  Treasury, 
wartime  taxes  are  strongly  buttressing  the  program  of  economic 
stabilization.  Civihan  demands  are  thereby  made  more  controllable 
and  the  strain  is  eased  on  direct  controls,  such  as  priorities,  rationing, 
wage  ceilings,  and  price  ceilings.  High  taxes  on  war  profits  and  on 
large  incomes,  moreover,  have  helped  to  gain  popular  acceptance  of 
the  stabilization  program. 

The  eightfold  increase  in  tax  yields  has  been  accomplished  in  suc- 
cessive stages,  thus  minimizing  shock  to  the  economic  system.  More- 
over, standards  of  equity  in  taxation  have  not  been  sacrificed.  The 
test  of  taxation  according  to  ability  to  pay  has  been  met  through 
heavy  reliance  on  progressive  taxes,  through  special  relief  provisions 
to  alleviate  hardships,  and  through  continued  efforts  to  close  avenues 
of  escape  from  just  taxation.  The  budgeting  and  payment  of  taxes 
have  been  made  more  convenient  through  the  introduction  of  with- 
holding and  current  payment  methods.  Individual  income  tax  re- 
turns and  compliance  have  been  greatly  simplified. 


6         REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Wartime  taxes  must  contimie  as  long  as  war  conditions  require. 
For  the  post-war  period,  however,  the  tax  system  must  be  readjusted 
to  the  then  existing  fiscal  and  economic  needs.  A  strong  tax  system 
must  be  maintained,  for  post-war  expenditures  will  be  far  higher  than 
pre-war  expenditures  and  we  should  plan  to  reduce  the  debt  as  rapidly 
as  economic  considerations  permit.  But  selective  tax  reductions  and 
adjustments  will  be  needed  to  encourage  private  expenditures  for 
consumption  and  investment.  Such  measures  are  essential  to  the 
realization  of  full  employment  in  a  peacetime  economy  of  free  enter- 
prise and  competition. 

Timing  the  changes  from  the  wartime  tax  structure  to  the  post-war 
tax  structure  will  present  an  important  and  difficalt  problem.  Little, 
if  any,  reduction  in  tax  rates  should  be  anticipated  until  after  the 
cessation  of  major  hostilities  on  all  fronts.  An  important  factor  affect- 
ing timing  of  downward  adjustments  is  whether  the  transition  and 
immediate  post-war  periods  will  involve  continued  inflationary  pres- 
sures and,  if  so,  at  what  point  of  time  these  will  disappear.  The 
premature  relaxation  of  our  efforts  on  the  tax  front  might  jeopardize 
the  continuing  success  of  the  economic  stabilization  program.  On  the 
other  hand,  too  great  delay  in  adjusting  the  tax  structure  and  rates 
might  jeopardize  the  post-war  maintenance  of  high  levels  of  employ- 
ment and  business  activity. 

The  problem  of  adjusting  taxes  to  match  the  shift  of  emphasis  from 
wartime  objectives  to  post-war  objectives  will  require  foresight  and 
coordinated  action.  The  Treasury  has  been  cooperating  with  other 
executive  departments  and  agencies  and  with  the  Congressional  Joint 
Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation  in  the  study  of  tax  adjust- 
ments for  the  transition  and  post-war  periods. 

Debt  management 

It  is  certain  that  the  present  war  will  leave  the  United  States  with  a 
large  public  debt.  There  is  no  question  of  the  ability  of  the  country  to 
service  this  debt.  As  the  tables  on  pages  2  and  3  indicate,  estimated 
expenditures  on  account  of  interest  on  the  debt,  for  the  fiscal  year 
ending  June  30,  1945,  amount  to  less  than  2  percent  of  the  anticipated 
gross  national  product  for  the  same  period.  Production  will  probably 
be  at  a  lower  level,  and  the  debt  will  certainly  be  somewhat  larger  after 
the  war  than  now.  The  interest  charge  will  thus  represent  a  larger 
proportion  of  the  national  product;  but  it  will  still  be  a  relatively  small 
proportion.  The  payment  of  interest  on  the  debt,  furthermore,  does 
not  decrease  the  amount  of  the  gross  national  product  available  for 
consumption  or  capital  expansion.  It  is  a  transfer  operation  by  which 
the  amount  of  the  interest  is  collected  from  taxpayers  and  paid  to  the 
holders  of  the  debt,  who  are  also  numbered  among  the  taxpayers, 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY         7 

The  burden  of  the  debt,  therefore,  consists  of  the  necessity  of  collect- 
ing a  large  amount  of  money  from  some  persons  and  repaying  it  to 
others,  and  of  the  possible  adverse  economic  effects  of  the  resulting 
redistribution  of  income  upon  the  amount  of  the  national  product. 
This  burden  is  a  real  one,  however,  and  it  should  be  a  major  object  of 
fiscal  policy  m  the  post-war  period  to  reduce  the  amount  of  the  debt 
in  so  far  as  this  is  compatible  with  the  maintenance  of  full  employment. 

All  borrowing  during  the  wartime  period  has  been  by  the  issuance  of 
securities,  the  interest  on  which  is  subject  to  the  Federal  income  tax. 
The  exclusive  issuance  of  such  securities,  which  is  now  a  permanent 
part  of  our  public  debt  policy,  has  been  achieved  without  any  sub- 
stantial increase  in  the  interest  rates  on  Federal  securities  above  the 
rates  which  it  would  have  been  necessary  to  pay  on  tax-exempt  secu- 
rities. The  taxability  of  the  interest  on  the  wartime  debt  will  both 
ease  the  problem  of  public  debt  management  in  the  post-war  perioJ 
and  make  possible  a  more  equitable  and  better  balanced  Federal 
tax  system. 

The  low  level  of  interest  rates  on  the  public  debt  (the  computed  in- 
terest rate  on  June  30,  1944,  was  1.93  percent)  lightens  the  burden 
of  the  debt  and  v/ill  tend  to  simplify  debt  management  in  the  post-war 
period.  Moreover,  the  fundamental  factors  underlying  interest  rates 
on  Government  securities,  which  apply  also  to  interest  rates  in  other 
fields,  give  no  indication  of  a  change  in  the  direction  of  a  higher  level 
of  rates  in  the  foreseeable  future.  Continued  low  interest  rates  will 
be  a  major  contribution  to  economic  stability  and  the  maintenance  of 
full  employment  after  the  war,  for  low  interest  rates  stimulate  business 
and  encourage  new  enterprise. 

Borrowing  during  the  war  period  has  been  carried  on  with  a  constant 
eye  to  the  transitional  and  post-war  effects  of  the  types  of  securities 
offered  and  the  classes  of  investors  appealed  to.  The  Treasury  has  so 
diversified  its  oft'erings  of  securities  as  to  provide  a  security  adapted 
to  the  requirements  of  each  major  class  of  investors.  Long-term 
marketable  bonds  have  been  sold  principally  to  insurance  companies 
and  savings  banks.  Commercial  banks  have  been  offered  more  liquid 
marketable  obhgations  having  terms  of  10  years  or  less.  One-year 
certificates  of  indebtedness,  and  Treasury  savings  notes  having  a 
maturity  of  three  years,  but  redeemable  at  the  owners'  option  after 
six  months,  have  been  especially  attractive  for  the  investment  of 
temporary  accumulations  of  business  concerns.  The  principal  em- 
phasis in  sales  of  securities  to  individuals  has  been  upon  Series  E 
savings  bonds,  wliich  have  a  maturity  of  ten  years,  but  which  are 
redeemable  at  the  owners'  demand  after  60  days. 

In  offering  securities  to  different  classes  of  investors,  the  Treasury 
has  always  borne  in  mind  the  fact  that  the  time  w^iicli  the  origiual ' 
purchaser  of  a  security  will  hold  it  will  depend,  principally,  upon  his 


8         REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

own  future  needs  and  convenience,  and  to  a  very  minor  extent  upon 
the  nominal  maturity  of  the  security.  Tlie  indiscriminate  issuance 
of  long-term  securities  to  all  classes  of  investors  would  not  insure 
their  being  held  to  maturity  by  their  original  purchasers,  but  would 
result  merely  in  premature  market  liquidation.  The  adaptation  of 
the  securities  offered  to  the  particular  needs  of  different  classes  of 
investors,  taken  in  conjunction  with  appropriate  open  market  policy, 
obviates  the  possibility  of  a  disorderly  liquidation  of  securities  through 
the  market,  such  as  might  have  occurred  had  a  single  type  of  market- 
able security  been  issued  to  all.  Such  liquidation  as  is  inevitable  in 
the  post-war  period  will  take  the  form  principally  of  the  redemption 
of  securities  by  the  Treasury,  either  at  maturity  or  at  the  owners' 
demand,  rather  than  by  sale  in  the  open  market.  The  refinancing  of 
these  obligations,  to  the  extent  that  a  net  reduction  in  the  outstand- 
ing debt  is  not  possible,  can  be  conducted  in  an  orderly  manner  by 
the  sale  of  new  Treasury  securities  adapted  to  market  conditions  at 
the  time.  Thus  one  factor  of  economic  instability,  the  demoraliza- 
tion of  the  security  markets,  will  be  eliminated. 

Smooth  transition  to  a  peacetime  economy  will  be  promated  by 
the  distribution  of  public  debt  securities  of  different  types  among 
various  classes  of  investors.  Corporations  which  have  invested  their 
reserves  for  reconversion  and  post-war  expansion  in  certificates  of 
indebtedness  and  Treasury  savings  notes  suffer  no  impairment  in  the 
liquidity  of  their  reserves  by  such  investment.  After  the  war  they 
may  sell  or  allow  their  holdings  of  certificates  to  run  off  and  may 
present  their  savings  notes  for  redemption  without  loss  of  principal. 

The  composition  of  the  public  debt  will  also  contribute  to  economic 
stability  by  releasing  purchasing  power  when  the  stimulus  of  increased 
spending  is  needed.  Although  individuals  will  probably  not  liquidate 
their  savings  bond  investments  on  a  large  scale  in  the  post-war  period, 
they  are  likely  to  spend  more  freely  of  their  current  incomes  because 
of  the  sense  of  security  afforded  by  their  savings  bond  holdings. 
The  distribution  of  savings  bonds  among  many  individuals  in  the 
relatively  low  income  groups  will  enhance  the  contribution  of  such 
spending  to  the  maintenance  of  economic  stability. 

The  same  ch'cumstances  which  have  made  it  advisable  to  concen- 
trate a  large  proportion  of  the  wartime  debt  in  securities  of  short 
matm-ity  will  continue  in  time  of  peace.  The  contribution  which  such 
a  structure  of  the  public  debt  furnishes  to  the  liquidity  of  the  whole 
economy  will  be  an  important  factor  in  the  maintenance  of  full  employ- 
ment in  the  post-war  period.  The  funding  of  a  major  portion  of  the 
short-term  debt  into  longer-term  securities,  on  the  other  hand,  would 
serve  merely  to  increase  the  interest  cost  to  the  Government  and  to 
shift  the  risk  of  future  changes  in  interest  rates  (and  corresponding 
movements,   in   the   opposite   direction,   of  bond   prices)    from   the 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY         9 

Government  to  private  investors.  Such  a  policy  would  increase, 
rather  than  reduce,  the  factors  making  for  instability  in  the  post-war 
economy,  as  the  Government  is  in  a  better  position  to  bear  the  risk 
of  changes  in  interest  rates  than  most  classes  of  investors,  and — unlike 
any  class  of  investors — is  also  in  a  position  to  minimize  it,  I  see  no 
need,  therefore,  for  any  large-scale  refunding  of  short-term  Govern- 
ment securities  into  long-term  ones  during  the  transition  or  post-war 
periods. 

International  monetary  and  financial  cooperation 

Durmg  the  past  year  further  steps  have  been  taken  to  assure  cooper- 
ation among  the  United  Nations  in  dealing  with  international  mone- 
tary and  financial  problems  after  the  war. 

For  more  than  a  decade  we  have  tried  to  secure  currency  stabiliza- 
tion through  cooperation  with  friendly  governments.  In  1936  we 
joined  with  England  and  France  in  the  Tri-Partite  Declaration,  to 
which  Belgium,  the  Netherlands,  and  Switzerland  adhered,  to  main- 
tain stable  exchange  arrangements  and  to  consult  on  important  ex- 
change problems.  The  Treasury  also  entered  into  bilateral  stabiliza- 
tion agreements  with  a  number  of  American  Republics  and  other 
friendly  countries.  These  measures,  while  helpful,  were  not  adequate 
to  assure  stable  exchanges  in  a  world  of  restriction  and  economic 
aggression. 

On  the  basis  of  this  experience  the  Treasury  came  to  the  conclusion 
that  international  monetary  and  financial  problems  could  be  dealt 
with  only  by  broad  cooperation  among  all  countries.  After  extended 
study  by  the  Treasury,  with  the  cooperation  of  other  departments  of 
this  Government,  tentative  proposals  were  formulated  for  an  inter- 
national stabilization  fund  and  an  international  bank.  In  1943, 
drafts  of  these  proposals  were  sent  to  the  Ministers  of  Finance  of  the 
United  Nations  for  consideration  by  their  technical  experts.  After 
a  year  of  discussion  among  the  teclmical  representatives  of  some  thirty 
coim tries,  a  joint  statement  was  published  recommending  an  inter- 
national monetary  fund.  In  May  1944,  President  Roosevelt  called 
the  United  Nations  Monetary  and  Financial  Conference  which  was 
held  at  Bretton  Woods,  N.  H.,  in  July.  The  Conference  prepared 
articles  of  agreement  for  an  international  monetary  fund  and  an 
international  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development  for  submission 
to  the  participating  governments. 

World  prosperity  and  world  peace  will  depend  in  large  measure  upon 
the  existence  of  a  high  level  of  balanced  international  trade  in  the 
post-war  period.  All  nations  are  economically  dependent  upon  one 
another,  both  as  consumers  and  as  producers.  With  stable  and 
orderly  exchanges  world  trade  can  be  increased.  Productive  foreign 
investments  will  make  possible  reconstruction  of  the  war-torn  areas 


10 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


of  Europe  and  Asia,  and  the  development  of  new  countries.  As  one 
of  the  leading  foreign  trading  countries  of  the  world,  we  have  a  special 
interest  in  these  measures  for  international  monetary  and  financial 
cooperation  which  will  facilitate  the  revival  and  growth  of  world  trade. 
The  United  Nations  have  shown  that  they  regard  international 
monetary  and  financial  problems  as  an  international  responsibility 
that  can  be  dealt  with  by  cooperation  through  the  fund  and  the  bank. 
By  providing  stable  and  orderly  exchange  arrangements  and  encourag- 
ing productive  international  investment,  the  fund  and  the  bank  will 
make  possible  the  balanced  growth  of  international  trade.  Together, 
they  can  help  provide  a  sound  foundation  for  a  prosperous  and 
peaceful  world. 

There  follows  a  detailed  discussion  of  receipts  and  expenditures, 
public  debt  operations,  taxation  and  monetary  developments,  and 
other  Treasury  operations  during  the  fiscal  year. 

RECEIPTS  IN  GENERAL  AND  SPECIAL  ACCOUNTS 


Total  receipts  of  the  Federal  Government  in  general  and  special 
accounts  amounted  to  $45.4  billions  during  the  fiscal  year  1944.  Net 
receipts,  which  consist  of  total  receipts  less  the  net  appropriation  for 
the  Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insm-ance  trust  fund,  amounted  to 
$44.1  billions.  Total  receipts  were  nearly  twice  the  amount  received 
in  1943,  nearly  three  and  one-half  times  those  in  1942,  and  five  and 
one-half  times  those  in  1941.  A  comparison  of  annual  total  and  net 
receipts,  beginning  with  1941,  is  shown  in  the  following  table.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


A  war-stimulated  economy  and  the  new  tax  legislation  enacted  in 
response  to  the  need  for  increased  revenue  have  combined  to  lift 
receipts  sharply  in  each  of  the  war  years.  The  rapid  expansion  of 
industrial  production  in  consequence  of  Federal  war  expenditures  was 
accompanied  by  a  similar  expansion  in  business  profits,  in  pay- 
ments to  individuals  as  a  factor  in  the  cost  of  production,  and  in  the 
production  of  civilian  goods  and  services,  thus  increasing  taxable 
income.  By  a  series  of  legislative  acts,  new  taxes  were  imposed,  rates 
were  increased,  exemptions  were  lowered,  and  radical  changes  in 
collection  procedures  were  instituted  tending  to  make  tax  payments 
more  current.  The  acts  involved  were  the  Revenue  Acts  of  1942  and 
1943,  the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943,  and  the  Individual  In- 
come Tax  Act  of  1944.  The  increase  in  total  receipts  in  1944  over  1943 
amounted  to  $22.0  billions. 

The  rising  trend  of  total  receipts  in  the  fiscal  years  1938  through 
1944  is  pictured  by  major  sources  in  Chart  1  on  page  11. 

Income  and  excess  profits  taxes  produced  more  than  three-fourths 
of  the  total  receipts  in  1944.  The  remaining  fourth  was  derived  from 
the  capital  stock  tax,  estate  and  gift  taxes,  employment  taxes,  customs 
duties,  deposits  resulting  from  renegotiation  of  war  contracts,  proceeds 
of  Gov^ernment-owned  securities,  excise  taxes,  and  miscellaneous  taxes 
and  receipts.  Detailed  data  are  contained  in  the  tables  beginning  on 
page  561. 

Receipts  from  income  and  excess  j^'ofits  taies 

Receipts  from  income  and  excess  profits  taxes  more  than  doubled 
in  1944,  and  the  increase  represented  84.3  percent  of  the  aggregate 
increase  from  all  sources  of  revenue.  The  receipts  of  $34.7  billions 
from  income  and  excess  profits  taxes  were  76.3  percent  of  total  receipts, 
as  compared  with  68.8  percent  in  1943  and  42.0  percent  in  1941. 

Four  years'  receipts  from  income  and  excess  profits  taxes  on  corpora-

Individual  income  taxes. — 

The  fiscal  year  1944  was  the  first  since  1937  in  which  collections  of 
the  individual  income  tax  exceeded  those  from  the  corporation  income 
and  excess  profits  taxes.  Individual  income  tax  collections  of  $18.3 
billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  were  $11.6  billions  greater  than  the 
collections  of  $6.6  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943.  The  increase 
resulted  not  only  from  higher  levels  of  income  but  also  from  (a)  in- 
creased tax  liabilities  under  the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943 
and  the  Revenue  Acts  of  1942  and  1943;  and  (b)  an  abnormal  concen- 
tration of  payments  in  1944  resulting  from  the  new  legislation. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  Treasury  speeded  up  its  receipts  of 
withholdings  from  salaries  and  wages  by  employers.  Most  employers 
who  had  withheld  more  than  $100  per  month  deposited  these  amounts 
with  Federal  depositaries  during  the  ensuing  month,  rather  than  wait 
until  the  month  following  the  end  of  the  quarter  to  make  payments 
into  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue.  Wliere  such  payments  were 
made  the  depositary  paid  them  to  the  Treasury  immediately  and  they 
were  included  in  the  individual  income  tax  receipts  on  the  daily  Treas- 
ury statement  basis.  Receipts  for  these  withholdings  given  to  the 
employers  were  then  forwarded  to  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue 
which  at  that  time  considered  these  amounts  to  be  collections.  It 
also  collected  cash  from  employers  who  had  not  paid  through  deposi- 
taries. The  adjustment  to  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  in  the 
fiscal  year  1944  is  abnormally  large  since  it  includes,  for  the  first  time, 
the  withholdings  made  to  depositaries  but  not  yet  received  by  the 
Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  as  collections.  Receipts  (on  the  daily 
Treasury  statement  basis)  from  the  individual  income  tax  totaled 
$19.8  billions  and  receipts  of  amounts  withheld  totaled  $9.2  billions 
as  compared  with  corresponding  amounts  of  $18.3  billions  and  $7.8 
billions  reported  as  collections  by  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue. 

The  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943  approved  June  9,  1943,  and 
effective  July  1,  1943,  greatly  increased  the  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year 


14        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

1944  by  placing  the  individual  income  tax  on  an  appreciably  current 
payment  basis.  The  act  remitted  1942  income  tax  liabilities  of 
individuals  but  provided  for  a  greater  proportion  of  current  payment 
of  liabilities  incurred  on  the  incomes  of  1943  and  1944,  partly  through 
withholding  at  source,  and  imposed  large  additional  nonrecurring 
liabilities  on  1943  incomes  in  partial  offset  of  the  complete  remission 
of  the  tax  liabilities  upon  calendar  year  1942  incomes.  In  the  fiscal 
year  1944  the  amount  received  from  withholding  was  $9.2  billions,  or 
46.8  percent  of  the  current  individual  income  tax  receipts,  as  com- 
pared with  $0.7  billions,  or  10.8  percent,  in  1943. 

As  a  result  of  placing  collections  of  the  individual  income  tax  on  a 
partly  current  basis  as  of  July  1,  1943,  the  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year 
1944  reflected  the  levels  of  income  of  the  calendar  years  1943  and 
1944.  On  the  other  hand,  the  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1943  reflected 
mainly  the  levels  of  income  in  the  calendar  years  1941  and  1942. 
Since  the  period  was  one  of  sharply  rising  income,  the  shift  to  a  cur- 
rent basis,  aside  from  other  legislative  changes,  served  to  accentuate 
the  increase  in  receipts  between  the  two  fiscal  years. 

Provisions  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  contributed  substantially  to 
the  increase  of  the  fiscal  year  1944  receipts.  The  higher  rates, 
together  with  the  lower  personal  exemptions  and  credits  for  depen- 
dents, of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  were  reflected  in  the  receipts  for 
the  entire  fiscal  year  1944.  The  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1943,  on 
the  other  hand,  reflected  the  lower  rates  and  higher  exemptions  of 
the  Revenue  Act  of  1941. 

The  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  together  with  the  Individual  Income 
Tax  Act  of  1944,  in  the  process  of  simplifying  the  payment  of  the 
individual  income  tax  effected  numerous  changes  in  the  law  and 
imposed  some  additional  liability  upon  1944  incomes.  This  additional 
liability,  principally  from  elimination  of  the  earned-income  credit, 
was  partially  reflected  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  receipts. 

The  abnormal  concentration  of  payments  in  the  first  year  of  the 
transition  to  a  current  payment  basis,  the  fiscal  year  1944,  was  the 
result  of  tliree  factors.  First,  under  the  Current  Tax  Payment 
Act  of  1943,  liabilities  of  1943  were  defined  in  effect  as  the  higher  of 

1942  or  1943  liabilities  under  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  plus  addi- 
tional nonrecurring  liabilities  imposed  as  offsets  of  complete  remission 
of  1942  liabilities;  and  payments  of  1942  tax  liabilities  already  made 
in  the  calendar  year  1943  prior  to  July  1,  1943,  were  applied  against 

1943  liabilities  due  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  Individuals  whose  in- 
comes in  1942  were  less  than  in  1943  had  paid  prior  to  July  1,  1943, 
considerably  less  than  half  of  their  aggregate  1943  liabilities,  exclusive 
of  nonrecurring  liabilities,  so  that  an  abnormally  large  proportion  of 
1943  liabilities  was  liquidated  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  Second,  the 
larger  part  of  the  nonrecurring  liabilities  on  1943  incomes  was  paid  in 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY  OF   THE  TREASURY  15 

the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  remainder  bemg  due  in  the  fiscal  year  1945. 
Third,  normally  a  small  amount  of  June  payments  spills  over  into 
July  collections  figures,  but  the  uinisually  large  number  of  part  pay- 
ments made  in  June  1943  resulted  in  the  official  recording  of  an 
unusually  large  portion  of  payments  as  collected  in  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

Receipts  from  back  taxes  from  individuals  amounted  to  $183.7 
milHons  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  an  increase  of  $10.8  millions,  or  6.2 
percent,  over  such  receipts  of  $172.9  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943. 
This  increase  is  associated  with  the  large  individual  income  tax 
liabilities  incurred  in  recent  years. 

Corporation  income  and  excess  profits  taxes. — 

Collection  of  total  corporation  income  and  excess  profits  taxes 
amounted  to  $14.8  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  an  increase  of  $5.1 
billions,  or  52.7  percent,  over  collections  of  $9.7  billions  the  year 
before.  The  increase  of  $5.2  billions,  on  a  receipts  basis,  represented 
24.0  percent  of  the  increase  in  total  receipts  from  all  sources  and  was 
second  in  importance  only  to  the  increase  in  collections  of  the  individual 
income  tax. 

The  increase  in  corporation  tax  receipts  in  1944  resulted  from  a 
combination  of  changes  occurring  in  the  war  period,  principally 
economic  changes  affecting  corporate  income  and  statutory  changes 
affecting  the  corporate  tax  structure.  Of  primary  significance  was 
the  sharp  rise  in  corporate  income  between  the  calendar  years  1941 
and  1943.  This  increase  in  corporate  income  was  not,  however, 
reflected  fully  in  the  increase  in  tax  receipts  of  1944  over  those  of 
1943,  since  only  about  half  of  the  collections  on  the  1941  tax  liabilities 
entered  into  the  receipts  of  the  fiscal  year  1943  and  likewise  only 
about  half  of  the  collections  on  the  1943  tax  liabilities  entered  into 
the  receipts  of  the  fiscal  year  1944.  (Collections  on  1942  tax  liabilities 
are  divided  about  evenly  between  the  fiscal  years  1943  and  1944.) 

Corporate  tax  liabilities  were  increased  also  by  provisions  of  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1942,  details  of  which  are  set  forth  on  pages  99  and 
100  of  the  annual  report  of  the  Secretary  for  the  year  1943.  A 
considerable  part  of  the  fiscal  year  1943  receipts  reflected  payments 
incurred  at  the  rates  imposed  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941,  whfle  most 
of  the  fiscal  year  1944  receipts  were  payments  of  taxes  on  income 
subject  to  rates  enacted  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942. 

Among  the  changes  contained  in  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  was  one 
which  provided  that,  in  computing  the  base  for  normal  tax  and  surtax, 
the  income  subject  to  the  excess  profits  tax  be  deducted  from  net 
income,  instead  of  the  excess  profits  tax  itself  being  deducted  from 
net  income,  as  was  the  case  under  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941.  This 
change  offset  somewhat  the  potential  revenue  effect  of  the  increased 
combined  normal  and  surtax  effective  rate  and  reduced  the  importance 
of  the  corporation  income  tax  relative  to  the  excess  profits  tax. 


16        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Thus  an  increased  proportion  of  corporate  income  became  subject 
to  the  excess  profits  tax  rather  than  to  normal  tax  and  surtax,  and 
as  corporate  income  increased,  the  base  for  the  normal  tax  and  surtax 
did  not  increase  proportionately  so  much  as  the  base  for  the  excess 
profits  tax.  This  accounts  in  part  for  the  relatively  greater  increase 
in  excess  profits  tax  current  collections  from  $4.8  billions  in  the  fiscal 
year  1943  to  $8.5  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  contrasted  with 
comparable  income  tax  current  collections  of  $4.1  billions  and  $4.8 
billions  in  the  two  fiscal  years. 

Some  increases  in  the  yield  from  the  excess  profits  tax  resulted 
also  from  changes  in  the  methods  of  computing  the  excess  profits 
credit.  These  changes  are  described  on  pages  100  and  101  of  the 
annual  report  of  the  Secretary  for  1943. 

Many  other  provisions  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  affected  to 
some  extent  the  tax  revenue  received  from  certain  corporations. 
These  included,  for  example:  (1)  the  extension  of  the  privilege  of 
filing  consolidated  returns  for  normal  tax  and  surtax  purposes  as 
well  as  for  the  excess  profits  tax,  in  which  case,  however,  an  addi- 
tional 2  percent  of  surtax  net  income  was  imposed,  and  (2)  a  credit, 
allowed  against  the  corporation  surtax  only,  equal  to  the  amount  of 
dividends  paid  on  preferred  stock,  was  allowed  to  certain  public 
utilities. 

The  provisions  of  the  1942  Revenue  Act  for  a  2-year  carry-back  of 
net  operating  losses  in  computing  net  income  and  a  2-year  carry-back 
of  unused  excess  profits  credit,  in  addition  to  the  allowance  for  a  2- 
year  carry-forward  of  net  operating  losses  and  unused  excess  profits 
credit  are  potentially  of  importance  but  have  not  appreciably  affected 
current  receipts  through  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

The  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  effective  January  1,  1944,  increased  the 
1944  fiscal  year  receipts  by  a  negligible  amount  since  only  those 
corporations  with  fiscal  years  ending  in  January,  February,  and 
March  1944  made  payments  on  liabilities  incurred  under  the  provisions 
of  the  1943  act.  These  liabilities  were  limited  to  that  part  of  their 
total  fiscal  year  falling  in  1944. 

No  changes  were  made  in  the  declared  value  excess  profits  tax 
rates  in  either  the  1942  or  1943  Revenue  Act.  The  increase  in  current 
collections  from  this  tax,  from  $61.1  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943 
to  $109.9  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  was  largely  attributable  to 
the  increase  in  corporate  income  occurring  over  the  period  1941-1943 
and  to  the  erratic  nature  of  the  tax.  Since  the  declared  value  excess 
profits  tax  applies  only  if  a  corporation  fails  to  declare  its  capital 
stock  at  a  value  equal  to  10  times  the  earnings  taxable  under  the 
declared  value  excess  profits  tax,  the  amount  received  under  this 
tax  depends  upon  the  accuracy  with  which  corporations  predict  their 
earnings. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY

Back  income  tax  receipts  increased  from  $383.9  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1943  to  $521.4  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  while  the 
increase  in  the  excess  profits  back  tax  receipts  was  both  absolutely 
and  proportionately  greater,  from  $219.9  millions  to  $865.8  millions. 
Back  taxes  are  affected  by  the  level  of  corporate  liabilities  but  with 
a  longer  lag  than  holds  in  the  case  of  current  collections.  Thus,  the 
fiscal  year  1944  receipts  of  back  taxes  included  payments  on  tax 
liabilities  incurred  by  corporations  with  taxable  years  ending  in  the 
calendar  year  1942  or  earlier,  whereas  current  receipts  in  the  fiscal 
year  1944  were  limited  to  liabilities  incurred  in  the  calendar  years 
1943  and  1942. 

Receipts  from  all  other  sources 

Receipts  from  sources  other  than  income  and  excess  profits  taxes 
in  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted  to  $10.8  billions,  or  23.7  percent  of 
the  total.  Receipts  from  this  group  increased  nearly  $3.5  billions 
over  those  in  1943.  About  two-thirds  of  this  rise,  $2.4  billions, 
occurred  in  miscellaneous  receipts  and  $738.4  millions  in  miscellaneous 
internal  revenue.  There  were  substantial  increases  in  the  other  major 
categories  also.  The  table  following  outlines  the  principal  sources 
of  such  receipts  in  the  past  four  years.

18        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Miscellaneous  internal  revenue. — 

Miscellaneous  internal  revenue  increased  primarily  because  of 
greater  consumer  demand  for  the  products  taxed,  higher  tax  rates,  and 
new  taxes  provided  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  (effective  in  only  part 
of  the  fiscal  year  1943)  and  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943. 

(1)  Capital  Stock  Tax. 

Collections  from  the  capital  stock  tax  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  were 
$380.7  millions,  or  0.8  percent  of  total  receipts.  They  represented  an 
increase  of  15.8  percent  over  the  amount  of  $328.8  millions  collected  in 
the  fiscal  year  1943.  The  increase  is  attributable  to  a  higher  income 
level  and  valuation  of  capital  stock  for  declared  value  excess  profits  tax 
computation  in  the  calendar  year  1943  than  in  the  calendar  year  1942, 

(2)  Estate  and  Gift  Taxes. 

Estate  and  gift  tax  collections  together  amounted  to  $511.2  millions 
in  1944,  or  1.1  percent  of  total  receipts.  Their  yield  in  1944  increased 
$63.7  millions  over  that  in  1943. 

Primarily  responsible  for  the  increase  in  revenue  from  the  estate  tax 
were  the  higher  rates  instituted  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941  effective 
for  a  full  fiscal  year  for  the  first  time  in  1944.  In  the  fiscal  year  1943 
the  higher  rates  under  the  1941  act  were  applicable  to  only  approx- 
imately 50  percent  of  the  returns  filed  because  of  the  15-month  lag 
permissible  under  the  law  between  the  date  of  death  and  the  date  of 
filing  the  return.  Increased  values  of  estates  for  which  returns  were 
filed  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  also  contributed  to  the  increase.  The 
Revenue  Act  of  1942,  applicable  to  some  of  the  returns  filed  in  the 
fiscal  year  1944,  reduced  the  tax  liabilities  somewhat  but  not  suf- 
ficiently to  offset  the  factors  tending  to  increase  the  yield. 

Increases  in  gift  tax  collections  in  1944  resulted  from  the  greater 
value  of  property  transferred  by  gifts  during  the  calendar  year  1943, 
and  from  changes  instituted  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  which 
reduced  the  exclusion  and  specific  exemptions  allowed  by  law, 

(3)  Liquor  Taxes. 

Liquor  tax  collections  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted  to  $1.6 
billions,  or  3.6  percent  of  total  receipts.  These  collections  increased 
$194.5  millions  over  those  in  1943.  Collections  from  taxes  on  distilled 
spirits,  $898.7  millions,  and  on  fermented  malt  liquors,  $559.2  millions, 
accounted  for  90.1  percent  of  the  total  of  the  group,  and  represented 
increases  of  $117.0  millions  and  $103.5  millions,  respectively.  The 
increase  as  a  whole,  in  the  face  of  a  considerable  decline  in  tax-paid 
.  withdrawals  of  distilled  spirits,  reflected  a  full  year's  collection  at  the 
higher  tax  rates  on  distilled  spirits,  wines,  and  fermented  malt  liquors 
provided  in  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  as  compared  with  only  8  months' 
collections  at  these  rates  in  the  preceding  year.     These  rates  were 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        19 

further  increased  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  effective  during  the 
last  three  months  of  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

(4)  Tobacco  and  Products  Taxes. 

Tobacco  and  products  tax  collections  amounted  to  $988.4  millions, 
or  2.2  percent  of  all  receipts,  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  These  collections 
constituted  an  increase  of  $73.1  millions  over  1943.  This  increase 
reflected  the  first  full  year  of  collections  at  the  higher  rates  imposed 
by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942,  greater  consumer  purchasing  power,  and 
some  shift  from  the  use  of  manufactured  chewing  and  smoking  tobacco 
to  the  smoking  of  cigarettes  and  cigars.  The  tax  on  small  cigarettes 
yielded  $904  millions  and  accounted  for  $68.7  millions  or  94.1  percent 
of  the  total  increase  for  the  group.  The  yield  from  the  tax  on  large 
cigars,  $30.2  millions,  increased  by  $7.1  millions,  resulting  principally 
from  a  shift  in  sales  to  a  more  expensive  type  of  cigar  subject  to  a 
higher  rate  of  tax.  The  revenue  derived  from  chewing  and  smoking 
tobacco,  which  amounted  to  $45.3  millions  for  the  fiscal  year  1944, 
showed  a  slight  decline  from  $47.8  millions  in  1943. 

(5)  All  Other. 

All  other  miscellaneous  internal  revenue  amounted  to  $1.9  billions 
in  1944,  or  4.1  percent  of  total  receipts.  Three  main  groups  of  taxes 
produced  the  receipts  under  this  classification:  (a)  a  group  of  miscel- 
laneous taxes  which  brought  in  $1.1  billions;  (b)  manufacturers' 
excise  taxes  which  brought  in  $502.7  millions;  and  (c)  retailers'  excise 
taxes  which  brought  in  $225.2  millions. 

(a)  Miscellaneous  taxes. 

Receipts  from  this  tax  group  increased  $318.9  millions  over  those 
in  1943.  The  yield  from  the  tax  on  transportation  of  property  was 
$215.5  millions,  an  increase  of  $132.9  millions  over  that  in  1943,  and 
the  yield  from  the  tax  on  transportation  of  persons  was  $153.7  mil- 
lions, representing  an  increase  of  $66.6  millions  over  that  of  1943. 
The  increase  in  receipts  from  the  taxes  on  the  transportation  of  per- 
sons and  property  was  the  result  of  increased  volume  of  both  freight 
and  passenger  travel.  In  addition,  the  high  rates  imposed  by  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1942  were  effective  for  a  full  year  for  the  first  time  in 
the  fiscal  year  1944.  Receipts  from  the  taxes  on  telephone,  telegraph, 
and  allied  services  also  increased  substantially  as  a  result  of  increased 
use  of  these  facilities  and  of  a  full  year  of  operation  of  the  increased 
rates  imposed  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942.  The  admissions  tax 
produced  $205.3  millions,  an  increase  of  $50.8  millions  over   1943. 

(b)  Manufacturers'  excise  taxes. 

Both  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  and  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  im- 
posed higher  excise  taxes  and  levied  new  excise  taxes  on  a  number

While  the  aggregate  yield  of  these  taxes  was  practically  unchanged 
in  1944,  the  $502.7  millions  in  that  year  representing  an  increase  of 
only  2.9  percent  over  1943,  some  individual  items  decreased  and 
others  increased.  The  decreases  which  occurred  resulted  from  curtail- 
ment in  civilian  supply  resulting  from  rationing,  reduced  production 
for  civilians,  and  lowered  stocks  of  goods  on  hand.  Receipts  from  the 
tax  on  gasoline  declined  by  $17.6  millions,  but  they  still  constituted 
more  than  half  the  total  for  the  group.  Other  manufacturers'  excise 
taxes  showing  a  decline-in  yield  were  taxes  on  automobiles  and  trucks; 
electric,  gas,  and  oil  appliances;  radio  sets  and  musical  instruments; 
refrigerators ;  business  and  store  machines ;  matches ;  luggage ;  sporting 
goods;  and  firearms.  A  retailers'  tax  on  luggage  replaced  the  manu- 
facturers' tax  under  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943. 

Among  the  manufacturers'  excise  taxes  showing  increases  in  1944, 
the  high  yield  from  the  tax  on  lubricating  oils,  $52.5  millions  as  com- 
pared with  $43.3  millions  in  1943,  is  explained  by  the  existence  of 
higher  tax  rates  effective  throughout  all  the  fiscal  year  1944  as  com- 
pared with  seven  months  of  the  fiscal  year  1943.  The  tax  on  parts  and 
accessories  for  automobiles  produced  $31.6  millions,  an  increase  of 
$11.1  millions,  reflecting  a  greater  need  for  replacement  parts.  The 
yield  of  the  tax  on  tires  and  inner  tubes  increased  from  $18.3  millions 
to  $40.3  millions,  resulting  from  improved  production  for  essential 
civilian  requirements  following  the  drastic  curtailment  in  the  fiscal 
year  1943.  Nominal  increases  occurred  in  the  yield  of  the  tax  on 
electrical  energy  and  in  the  tax  on  photographic  apparatus.  The 
only  tax  in  the  group  for  which  rates  were  increased  by  the  Revenue 
Act  of  1943,  that  on  electric  light  bulbs,  is  relatively  unimportant. 
Receipts  of  $5.4  millions  in  1944,  however,  represented  an  increase  of 
45.9  percent  over  1943.

(c)  Retailers'  excise  taxes. 
Collections  of  these  taxes  amounted  to  a  total  of  $225.2  millions 
in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  an  increase  of  $59.9  millions,  or  36.3  percent 
over  1943  collections  of  $165.3  millions.  The  table  below  shows 
retailers'  excise  tax  receipts  by  type  of  tax  beginning  with  the  fiscal 
year  1942  when  such  taxes  were  first  imposed  as  a  war  measure. 
It  will  be  noted  that  the  tax  on  jewelry  has  produced  more  than  half 
of  all  retailers'  excise  tax  receipts.

Miscellaneous  receipts. — 

Miscellaneous  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted  to  $3.3 
billions,  an  increase  of  $2.4  billions  over  such  receipts  in  1943. 

(1)    RENEGOTIATION  OF  WAR  CONTRACTS. 

Of  the  revenue  derived  from  sources  other  than  income  and  excess 
profits  taxes,  recoveries  of  excessive  profits  on  renegotiated  war 
contracts  constituted  the  largest  single  source  in  the  fiscal  year  1944, 
These  amounted  to  more  than  $2.2  billions,  or  4.9  percent  of  total 
receipts,  and  included  $112.8  millions  representing  voluntary  return 
of  excessive  profits  on  renegotiated  contracts.  The  contracts  were 
entered  mto  by  the  War  and  Navy  Departments,  the  United  States 
Maritime  Commission,  the  War  Shipping  Administration,  and  the 
Treasury  Department.  The  share  of  the  Treasury  Department 
amounted  to  about  $0.9  millions.  Total  recoveries  in  1944  included 
an  increase  of  more  than  $1.5  billions  over  those  in  1943. 

Customs. — 

Customs  receipts  amounted  to  $431.3  millions  in  the  fiscal  year 
1944  and  were  0.9  percent  of  the  total.  They  exceeded  by  33.0 
percent  the  receipts  of  $324.3  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943.  By  far 
the  greater  portion  of  the  increase  resulted  from  increased  imports  of 
wool  and  of  alcoholic  beverages.  Duties  on  imports  of  these  two 
commodities  accoimted  for  approximately  one-half  of  total  customs 
receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


Employment  taxes  and  railroad  unemployment  in  sv  ranee  con- 
tributions.— 

Employment  tax  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted  to 
$1 .7  billions,  or  3.8  percent  of  total  receipts.  This  inchided  an  increase 
of  $241.4  millions,  or  16.1  percent,  over  the  amount  of  nearly  $1.5 
billions  received  in  1943.  The  greater  portion  of  the  increase  came 
from  a  rise  in  both  industrial  and  railroad  pay  rolls  associated  with 
the  continuing  expansion  of  wartime  production.  In  addition, 
increases  in  hourly  wage  rates  awarded  to  railroad  employees,  together 
with  an  increase  in  the  tax  rate,  augmented  the  yield  of  the  tax  on 
carriers  and  their  employees. 

Employment  tax  receipts  for  the  war  period  by  kind  of  tax  are 
shown  in  the  following  table.

Receipts  from  the  tax  imposed  by  the  Federal  Insurance  Contri- 
butions Act  amounted  to  $1.3  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  exceeding 
receipts  of  $1.1  billions  in  1943.  Receipts  under  the  Federal  Un- 
employment Tax  Act  increased  from  $158.4  millions  in  1943  to  $179.9 
millions  in  1944.  In  both  cases,  the  tax  rates  and  coverage  were  the 
same  in  the  two  years,  and  the  increases  are  attributable  to  increases  in 
taxable  pay  rolls  in  the  period  affecting  receipts  in  1944.^ 

The  rise  of  $58.3  millions  in  receipts  from  the  tax  on  carriers  and 
their  employees  in  1944  as  compared  with  1943  resulted  in  part  from 
the  increase  in  the  tax  rate  from  3  percent  to  SYa  percent  on  both 
employers  and  employees,  effective  on  wages  paid  beginning  January 
1,  1943.  The  increase  was  fully  reflected  in  the  1944  receipts.  The 
higher  rate  affected  receipts  in  only  one-quarter  of  the  year  1943 
because  of  a  three-months'  lag  in  collections. 

Railroad  unemployment  insurance  contributions  in  1944  rose  to 
$12.1  millions  from  the  1943  contributions  of  $10.3  millions. 


'  Postponement  of  the  automatic  increase  in  the  1944  tax  rate  under  the  Federal  Insurance  Contributions 
Act  until  March  1, 1944,  by  Public  Law  221,  approved  by  the  President  December  22, 1943,  and  until  January 
1,  1945,  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  does  not  afiect  net  receipts  since  the  amounts  collected  in  excess  of 
administrative  expenses  are  appropriated  for  the  Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insurance  trust  fund.

EXPENDITURES  FROM  GENERAL  AND  SPECIAL  ACCOUNTS 

Total  expenditures  of  the  Federal  Government  from  general  and 
special  accounts  amounted  to  $93.7  billions  during  the  fiscal  year  1944, 
which  was  $15.6  billions  more  than  the  amount  expended  in  the  year 
before.  A  comparison  of  expenditures  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  with 
those  in  1943  and  in  1941  and  1942  combined,  classified  to  show  war 
and  other  expenditures  separately,  appears  in  the  table  that  follows.

War  expenditures,  it  will  be  noted  from  the  table  above,  accounted 
for  most  of  the  increase  in  1944,  and  the  rise  in  the  amount  of  interest 
on  the  public  debt  for  the  remainder.  Other  expenditures  of  the 
Federal  Government  declined  to  4.4  percent  of  the  total.  War 
expenditures,  as  in  1943,  constituted  more  than  92  percent  of  all 
expenditures  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  In  the  four  fiscal  years  during 
which  the  country  has  been  engaged  in  defense  and  war  activities, 
war  expenditures  have  totaled  $191.5  billions,  or  88.2  percent  of  the 
total  of  $217.2  billions. 

Expenditures  in  the  past  four  fiscal  years  are  summarized  by  general 
functions  in  the  table  following.  The  course  of  expenditures  for  the

•Less  than  $500,000. 


Total  monthly  expenditures  rose  from  $4.5  billions  in  June  1942 
to  $8.6  billions  in  June  1944.  Summaries  of  monthly  expenditures  for 
war  purposes  and  for  other  purposes  exclusive  of  statutory  debt 
retirements  appear  in  Chart  3  on  page  27  and  in  the  following  table. 
It  will  be  noted  that  the  significant  development  in  the  trend  of 
monthly  expenditures  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  was  their  tendency 
to  flatten  out.  This  was  in  sharp  contrast  to  the  continuous  rising 
trend  in  the  three  years  preceding.  The  monthly  figures  for  the  fiscal 
year  1941  may  be  found  in  the  annual  report  for  1943  on  page  24.

War  expenditures 

War  expenditures  of  $87.0  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  again 
were  unprecedented.  Their  increase  of  $14.9  billions  over  those  of 
the  preceding  year  compared  with  an  increase  of  $46.1  billions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1943  over  those  of  1942.  The  figures  on  war  expenditures, 
however,  are  exclusive  of  disbursements  of  the  Reconstruction  Finance 
Corporation  and  its  affiliates,  which  are  shown  separately  in  the 
section  on  page  32. 

The  less  rapid  rise  of  war  expenditures  during  1944  was  due  to 
several  developments.  The  initial  equipment  of  the  Army  was  prac- 
tically completed  during  the  year  and  some  components  of  the  war 
production  program  had  reached  a  replacement  basis.     Moreover,

because  mass  production  was  being  applied  certain  contract  prices 
of  materiel  acquired  by  the  Army  and  Navy  had  been  reduced. 
Renegotiation  of  contracts  also  continued  to  lower  costs.  Offsetting 
these  factors  were  greater  expenditures  for  larger  production  of  certain 
munitions,  for  shifts  in  design  and  type,  for  new  products,  and  for 
subsistence  and  pay  of  the  full  strength  of  the  Army  attained  on  April 
1,  1944.  Expenses  of  training,  communications,  and  the  transporta- 
tion of  troops  continued  high. 

Expenditures  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  reflected  the  climax  of  the 
great  task  of  producing  and  assembling  supplies  for  the  invasions  of 
Italy  and  France.  War  Department  expenditures  increased  16.5 
percent  over  those  of  1943.  At  the  same  time  the  Navy  Department 
expended  27.0  percent  more  than  in  the  year  before  and  the  Maritime 
Commission  37.3  percent  more.  These  disbursements  financed  not 
only  transportation  and  support  given  the  European  invasion  forces 
but  also  the  accelerated  pace  of  the  war  in  the  Pacific. 

The  figures  under  the  caption  "War  expenditures"  in  the  preceding 
summary  tables  and  in  most  of  the  other  tables  in  this  report  include 
the  entire  expenditures  of  the  following  departments  and  agencies: 
War  Department  (except  for  rivers  and  harbors  and  for  flood  control) , 
Navy  Department,  United  States  Maritime  Commission,  War  Ship- 
ping Administration,  Office  for  Emergency  Management,  and  certain 
other  agencies  in  the  Executive  Office  of  the  President,  and  Smaller 
War  Plants  Corporation  (to  extent  of  capital  stock).  They  include 
also  certain  expenditures  of  the  following  departments  and  agencies 
which  have,  in  addition  to  the  expenditures  for  thek  regular  activities, 
some  expenditures  classified  under  the  head  of  war  activities:  Depart- 
ment of  Labor,  Department  of  the  Interior,  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture (principally  lend-lease),  Treasury  Department  (principally  lend- 
lease).  Department  of  State,  Commerce  Department,  Department  of 
Justice,  National  Housing  Agency,  Federal  Works  Agency,  Federal 
Security  Agency,  certain  other  independent  ofiices,  and  the  Panama 
Canal. 

Expenditures  of  the  agencies  above  include  amounts  disbursed  for 
materials  and  goods  transferred  and  services  rendered  to  other  coun- 
tries in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the  Defense  Aid  Act  of 
1941  and  the  Military  Establishment  Appropriation  Acts  and  Naval 
Appropriation  Acts  as  amended.  No  comprehensive  analysis  of  the 
figures  in  these  tables  to  show  the  amount  expended  for  lend-lease 
items  is  available  in  the  Treasury  records.  Data  on  lend-lease  aid 
are  published  in  the  President's  periodic  reports  on  the  lend-lease 
operations. 

The  figures  on  war  expenditures  embrace  expenses  of  all  operations 
including  training  of  personnel  of  the  armed  forces,  transportation, 
communication,  travel,  pay,  subsistence,  maintenance,  production  of 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY

munitions,  and  many  other  categories.  Excluded  are  some  outlays 
which  had  the  prosecution  of  the  war  as  an  objective  but  which  were 
made  from  funds  which  had  supplemented  the  regular  appropriations 
of  such  civil  departments  and  agencies  as  the  Tennessee  Valley  Au- 
thority, the  Panama  Canal,  the  Federal  Security  Agency,  and  the 
Federal  Works  Agency.  Excluded  also  are  expenditures  of  other 
agencies  whose  activities  have  been  greatly  expanded  as  a  direct  result 
of  the  war.  The  expenditures  for  such  activities  are  made  from  general 
appropriations  and,  accordingly,  they  cannot  be  classified  as  a  part 
of  the  war  program. 

The  progress  of  war  production  in  relation  to  the  rise  of  total  war 
expenditures  is  shown  rouglily  by  the  comparison  in  Chart  4  of  ex-

procurement  of  supplies  and  the  execution  of  production  operations. 
The  magnitude  of  the  war  program  as  of  June  30,  1944,  is  indicated 
by  the  figure  of  more  than  $375  bilHons  of  war  appropriations  together 
with  net  contract  authorizations  for  which  appropriations  had  not 
yet  been  made.  This  is  an  increase  of  about  $115  bilhons  in  the 
program  over  that  of  a  year  earlier.  Appropriations  for  the  War 
Department  accounted  for  $74.3  billions  of  the  increase,  and  appro- 
priations and  contract  authorizations  for  the  Navy  Department  for  an 
increase  of  $25.5  billions.  The  United  States  Maritime  Commission 
and  the  War  Shipping  Administration  combined  received  an  increase 
in  appropriations  and  contract  authorizations  of  $9.8  billions.

July  15, 1944,  in  order  to  reflect  the  latest  revised  estimates  of  the  Navy  Department  and  the  United  States 
Maritime  Commission,  as  of  June  30,  1944. 

3  Total  appropriations  differ  from  amount  shown  in  the  daily  Treasury  statement  for  July  16,  1944,  in 
order  to  include  $88,299,000  appropriated  in  Public  Law  382,  approved  June  30, 1944,  but  not  shown  in  daily 
Treasury  statements  until  August  15,  1944. 

The  foregoing  expenditures  do  not  include  disbursements  by  the 
Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  and  its  affiliates.  Total  war 
disbursements  by  the  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  and  its 
affiliates  from  July  1,  1940,  through  June  30,  1944,  amounted  to 
nearly  $15.1  billions,  and  gross  receipts,  in  the  form  of  rents,  repay- 
ments and  sales,  amounted  to  more  than  $6.6  billions.  A  significant 
development  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  was  the  increase  in  gross  receipts, 
which  amounted  to  54.2  percent  of  gross  disbursements.  This 
percentage  compared  with  47.8  percent  in  1943.  The  Corporation 
reported  that  its  commitments  amounted  to  $28.8  billions  between 
July  1,  1940,  and  June  30,  1944,  of  which  $4.6  billions  had  been  with- 
drawn and  canceled. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  gross  disbursements  by  the  Defense 
Supplies  Corporation  amounted  to  $2,324  millions,  the  largest  amount

by  any  of  the  affiliates,  and  nearly  two  and  one-half  times  the  gross

Defense  Plant  Corporation  declined  from  $3,431  millions  in  1943  to 
$2,305  millions  in  1944,  an  indication  that  the  peak  of  construction 
of  war  plants  has  passed.

General  expenditures 

General  expenditures  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  constituted  an  even 
smaller  part  of  the  total  than  in  1943.  At  $4.1  billions  they  were  4.4 
percent  of  the  total,  compared  with  5.5  percent  the  year  before.  Sharp 
reductions  in  expenditures  for  several  nonwar  functions  were  partially 
offset,  however,  by  some  increases  in  certain  additional  departmental 
activities  resulting  from  the  war.  (See  table  on  page  24.)  The  net 
decrease  was  $166  millions. 

Curtailment  of  relief  and  work  relief,  as  in  1943,  accounted  for  the 
most  substantial  reduction,  approximately  $300  millions.     This  re- 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        33 

suited  from  the  nearly  completed  liquidation  of  the  Work  Projects 
Administration  and  the  virtual  elimination  of  expenditures  for  the 
Civilian  Conservation  Corps.  Public  works  expenditures  declined  by 
$110  millions.  The  largest  decrease  in  this  category  was  $46  millions 
for  the  Tennessee  Valley  Authority.  Retrenchments  were  made  also  in 
public  works  expenditures  for  river  and  harbor  work  and  flood  control, 
for  reclamation  projects,  and  for  grants  to  State  and  local  governments 
under  the  act  of  June  21,  1938.  Expenditures  of  the  Public  Roads 
Administration  declined  by  $21  millions. 

Aid  to  agriculture  was  reduced  in  1944  for  the  second  consecutive 
year,  the  reduction  totaling  $254  millions.  In  the  Department  of 
Agriculture  alone,  expenditures  were  $40  millions  less  than  in  the 
preceding  year.  Expenditures  under  the  Soil  Conservation  and  Do- 
mestic Allotment  Act  declined  $45  millions,  under  the  Farm  Security 
Administration  $10  millions,  and  subscriptions  to  capital  stock  of  the 
Federal  Crop  Insurance  Corporation  were  $10  millions  less.  Expendi- 
tures under  the  Agricultural  Adjustment  Act  of  1938,  which  included 
parity  payments,  declined  by  $39  millions.  The  net  decrease  of  $74 
millions  in  expenditures  by  the  Farm  Credit  Administration  revolving 
fund  was  due  to  a  net  repayment  of  $33  millions  as  compared  with  a 
net  expenditure  of  $41  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943.  A  net  decrease 
of  $44  millions  under  the  Post  Office  Department  reflected  a  net 
repayment  of  $29  millions  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  on  account  of 
grants  made  in  prior  years  as  compared  with  a  net  expenditure  of  $15 
millions  for  the  fiscal  year  1943. 

Among  the  increases  in  general  expenditures  in  the  fiscal  year  1944, 
was  a  rise  in  veterans'  pensions  and  benefits  of  $127  millions.  An 
increase  in  disbursements  for  the  social  security  program  of  $68 
millions  was  due  mainly  to  transfers  to  trust  accounts  by  the  railroad 
retirement  account  and  the  Railroad  Unemployment  Insurance  Ad- 
mmistration. 

"Other"  expenditures  accounted  for  a  total  increase  of  $302  mil- 
lions. An  increase  of  nearly  $200  millions  in  refunds  of  taxes  and 
duties  by  the  Treasury  Department  constituted  the  largest  item  in 
this  group.  These  payments  reflected  the  effects  of  the  provisions  of 
the  new  tax  law  under  which  individuals  who  overestimated  their 
income  tax  payments  receive  cash  refunds.  The  payments  also 
included  refunds  of  $134  millions  in  the  form  of  excess  profits  tax 
refund  bonds,  which  are  not  redeemable  until  after  the  war. 

DEFICIT  IN  GENERAL  AND  SPECIAL  ACCOUNTS 

In  the  fiscal  year  1944,  expenditures  exceeded  receipts  in  general 
and  special  accounts  by  $49,595  millions.  This  sum  represented  the 
net  deficit  exclusive  of  statutory  debt  retirements.  The  derivation 
of  the  deficit  in  1943  and  1944  follows.

RECEIPTS  AND  EXPENDITURES  IN  TRUST  ACCOUNTS  AND  CHECKING 
ACCOUNTS  OF  GOVERNMENT  CORPORATIONS  AND  CREDIT 
AGENCIES 

In  addition  to  receipts  and  expenditures  under  general  and  special 
accounts,  discussed  above,  certain  receipts  and  expenditures  of  the 
Government  are  reported  in  the  Daily  Statement  of  the  United  States 
Treasury  under  the  title  of  "Trust  accounts,  etc."  Neither  the 
receipts  nor  the  expenditures  of  these  accounts  affect  the  Federal 
Budget  except  to  the  extent  that  appropriations  (e.  g.,  the  Govern- 
ment's share  of  the  civil  service  retirement  fund)  are  made  from  the 
General  Fund  for  credit  to  these  accounts.  Such  appropriations 
appear  as  expenditures  under  general  and  special  accounts,  and  as 
receipts  under  trust  accounts,  etc.,  with  the  exception  of  net  appro- 
priations to  the  Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insurance  trust  fund 
which  are  shown  as  deductions  from  receipts  under  general  and  special 
accounts.  Moneys  in  trust  accounts  not  needed  for  current  expendi- 
ture are  in  a  number  of  instances  invested  in  Government  securities, 
as  provided  by  statute.  The  larger  corporations  and  credit  agencies 
maintaining  checking  accounts  with  the  Treasurer  of  the  United 
States  generally  apply  the  cash  balances  not  needed  for  operations  to 
the  purchase  of  Government  securities  for  investments,  or  to  debt  or 
capital  stock  retirement.  A  summary  of  receipts  and  expenditures 
in  trust  accounts,  etc.^  for  the  fiscal  years  1943  and  1944  follows.

1944  in  tables  3  and  4  on  pages  534  and  554. 

Certain  Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies  maintain 
only  checking  accounts  with  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  and 
the  transactions  shown  in  the  preceding  table  and  in  other  tables 
in  this  report  represent  their  net  operations.  The  tables,  therefore, 
do  not  furnish  sufficient  data  for  an  analysis  of  the  financial  trans- 
actions of  these  agencies.  Arrangements  have  been  made  with  these 
corporations  and  agencies,  whereby  certain  data  are  submitted  to 
the  Treasury  so  that  the  Treasury's  records  can  reflect  their  opera- 
tions. These  data  have  been  combined  and  appear  in  the  tables 
beginning  on  page  770  showing  sources  and  uses  of  funds  for  the  fiscal 
year  1944,  and  from  the  date  of  inception  of  the  various  corporations 
and  agencies  to  June  30,  1944.  The  figures  are  not  on  the  basis  of 
the  daily  Treasury  statement  and,  therefore,  do  not  agree  exactly 
with  the  figures  shown  in  other  tables  in  this  report.

The  Treasury's  fuiancing  program  during  the  fiscal  year  had  to

THE  PUBLIC  DEBT 

Summary  of  financing  operations 

The  Treasury  borrowed  a  net  amount  of  $64,307  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1944.  This  sum  was  approximately  equal  to  the  net 
amount  of  $64,274  millions  borrowed  in  the  fiscal  year  1943.  In 
general  the  pattern  and  the  mechanics  of  the  financing  operations  in 
1944  were  similar  to  those  adopted  in  1943,  but  mcreasing  emphasis 
was  placed  on  the  sale  of  securities  to  investors  other  than  com- 
mercial banks.

Financing  operations  during  the  year  included  two  complete  war 
loan  drives  (the  Thu'd  and  the  Fourth  War  Loans)  and  the  major 
portion  of  another  (the  Fifth  War  Loan),  two  offerings  of  securities  to 
commercial  banks  for  cash  in  periods  between  drives,  and  one  cash 
offering  not  restricted  as  to  class  of  subscriber;  and,  in  addition  to 
these,  limited  cash  subscriptions  were  accepted  from  commercial 
banks  for  securities  offered  in  the  Fourth  and  Fifth  War  Loans  but 
were  not  accounted  as  parts  of  the  drives.  Weekly  issues  of  Treasury 
bills  were  awarded  on  the  basis  of  competitive  bidding,  and,  to  a 
limited  amount,  by  fixed  price  tenders;  and  sales  of  United  States 
savings  bonds  and  Treasury  savings  notes  were  continuous  throughout 
the  year.  Four  maturing  Treasury  or  guaranteed  marketable  bond 
or  note  issues  were  redeemed  for  cash,  and  exchange  offers  were  made 
with  respect  to  14  called  or  maturing  issues  of  marketable  bonds, 
notes,  and  certificates.  These  transactions,  together  with  gross  issues 
and  redemptions  of  savings  bonds  and  savings  notes,  are  summarized 
in. the  following  tables.  Sales  of  securities  in  the  three  war  loans  con- 
ducted during  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  well  as  sales  in  the  first  two 
war  loans  conducted  in  1943,  are  shown  in  Chart  5  on  page  41.  All

Third  War  Loan 

Tlie^jThird  War  Loan  was  conducted  from  September  9  tlirough 
October  2,  1943.  For  the  first  time  commercial  banks  were  excluded 
from  the  drive  and  the  loan  was  directed  wholly  to  the  sale  of  United 
States  Government  securities  to  nonbank  investors.  The  organization 
of  the  drive  also  was  a  departure  from  the  First  and  Second  War  Loans 
(conducted  in  the  fiscal  year  1943  and  described  in  the  Annual  Report 
of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  for  1943)  in  that  it  was  organized  on 
a  State  pattern  under  the  direction  of  State  and  local  war  finance 
committees,  with  a  chairman  in  each  State  reporting  to  the  War  Fi- 
nance Division  of  the  Treasury  Department. 


40        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  goal  for  the  Third  War  Loan  was  $15,000  millions,  of  which 
$5,000  millions  was  the  goal  for  individuals.  Sales  to  investors  in- 
cluded in  the  goal  amounted  to  $18,314  millions,  an  oversubscription 
of  $3,314  millions.  Individuals  exceeded  their  quota  by  $377  millions. 
Sales  of  $630  millions  to  Treasury  investment  accounts,  which  were  not 
counted  toward  the  goal  of  the  drive,  brought  the  total  sum  raised  to 
$18,944  millions.  This  figure  is  to  be  compared  with  sales  to  nonbank 
investors  of  $7,860  millions  in  the  First  War  Loan  and  of  $13,476  mil- 
lions in  the  Second  War  Loan. 

The  seven  securities  offered  were  similar  to  those  offered  in  the 
Second  War  Loan.    They  consisted  of: 

Marketable  issues,  all  dated  September  15,  1943: 

%  percent  certificates  of  indebtedness  due  September  1,  1944; 
2  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  September  15,  1951,  due 

September  15,  1953;  and 
2%  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  December  15,  1964,  due 
December  15,  1969. 
Nonmarke table  issues: 
Savings  bonds: 

Series  E,  F,  and  G;  and 
Savings  notes : 
Series  C. 

In  accordance  with  the  policy  adopted  in  1942,  commercial  banks 
are  not  permitted  to  hold  the  2)<  percent  bonds  until  ten  years  from 
their  issue  date. 

Although  the  three  marketable  securities  were  available  only  in  the 
formal  period  of  the  drive  (September  9  through  October  2),  sales  of 
the  four  noimiarketable  securities  reported  from  September  1  through 
October  16  were  counted  toward  the  goal.  This  extended  period 
allowed  campaign  workers  more  time  for  person-to-person  solicitation 
at  the  beginning  of  the  drive,  and  also  recognized  the  necessity  for 
additional  time  for  the  reporting  and  accounting  of  the  great  number 
of  individual  sales. 

In  order  to  give  life  insiu-ance  companies  an  opportunity  to  enter 
subscriptions  in  anticipation  of  regular  receipts,  payment  against 
subscriptions  by  such  companies  to  the  2  percent  and  2]^  percent  bonds 
was  permitted  to  be  deferred  to  November  1,  1943. 

Sales  by  investor  classes,  compared  with  the  goals,  and  sales  of  each 
issue  to  each  investor  class  are  shown  in  the  tables  which  follow. 
Sales  of  securities  during  the  Tliird  War  Loan  by  classes  of  investors, 
by  issues,  and  by  States  are  shown  in  the  tables  beginning  on  page  671 .

Fourth  War  Loan 


The  Fourth  War  Loan  was  conducted  from  January  18  through 
February  15,  1944.  Its  organization  was  essentially  similar  to  that 
of  the  Third  War  Loan.     Again  the  drive  was  directed  exclusively  to 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


43 


nonbank  subscribers.  The  goal  of  $14,000  millions  was  exceeded  by 
$2,730  millions.  However,  sales  to  individuals  amounted  to  only 
$5,309  millions,  as  against  a  goal  of  $5,500  millions. 

Tlie  several  securities  offered  in  this  loan  differed  significantly  in 
only  one  instance  from  those  offered  in  the  Third  Loan  in  that  there 
was  offered  a  12-15-year  bond  at  2}^  percent  instead  of  an  8-10-year 
bond  at  2  percent.  The  three  marketable  and  the  four  nonmarketable 
securities  offered  were  as  follows : 

Marketable  issues,  all  dated  February  1,  1944: 

%  percent  certificates  of  indebtedness  due  February  1,  1945; 
2)^  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  September  15,  1956,  due 

September  15,  1959;  and 
2}^  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  March  15,   1965,  due 
March  15,  1970. 
Nonmarketable  issues: 
Savings  bonds: 

Series  E,  F,  and  G;  and 
Savings  notes: 
Series  C. 

All  subscriptions  for  savings  bonds.  Series  E,  F,  and  G,  and  for  savings 
notes  reported  between  January  1  and  February  29  were  credited  to 
the  loan,  to  give  more  time  to  canvass  individuals  and  to  clear  the 
funds  from  issuing  agents  tlu-ough  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks. 

Sales  by  investor  classes,  compared  with  the  goals,  and  sales  of  each 
issue  to  each  investor  class  are  shown  in  the  tables  which  follow.

Further  details  on  sales  of  securities  during  the  Fourth  War  Loan, 
by  classes  of  investors,  by  issues,  and  by  States  are  shown  in  the 
tables  beginning  on  page  676. 

At  the  time  the  Fourth  War  Loan  was  being  conducted,  commercial 
banks  holding  savings  deposits  (as  defined  in  Regulation  Q  of  the  Board 
of  Governors  of  the  Federal  Reserve  System)  were  permitted  to  make 
limited  subscriptions  to  the  2}^  percent  and  the  2}^  percent  marketable 
Treasury  bonds.  E.xcept  as  indicated  below,  commercial  banks  are 
not  permitted  to  hold  the  2}^  percent  bonds  until  September  15,  1946, 
or  to  hold  the  2}^  percent  bonds  until  February  1,  1954.  Such  banks 
were  also  permitted  to  subscribe  to  Series  F  and  Series  G  savings 
bonds  on  and  after  January  1,  1944.  Subscriptions  for  any  or  all 
of  the  four  issues  were  restricted  to  an  amount  not  to  exceed,  in  the 
aggregate,  10  percent  of  a  bank's  .savings  deposits  as  shown  on  its 
books  as  of  the  date  of  the  most  recent  call  statement  required  by  the 
supervising  authorities  prior  to  the  date  of  subscribing  for  such  bonds, 
or  $200,000,  whichever  was  less.  However,  no  bank  may  hold  more 
than  $100,000  (issue  price)  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  savings  bonds 
(Series  1944),  combined.  This  latter  restriction  is  the  same  as  that 
to  which  other  purchasers  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  bonds  are  subject. 

Purchases  of  these  four  securities  by  commercial  banks  holdmg 
savings  deposits  totaled  $623  millions  during  the  Fourth  War  Loan. 
Such  purchases  were  not  included  in  Fourth  War  Loan  quotas  or 
credited  to  Fourth  War  Loan  sales.  Treasury  investment  accounts 
also  purchased  some  of  the  securities  offered  as  part  of  the  loan,  and

these  too  were  not  included  in  the  Fourth  War  Loan  quotas  or  credited

Fifth  War  Loan 

In  the  final  month  of  the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  Fifth  War  Loan  was 
opened.  The  goal  was  $16,000  millions.  Total  sales  amounted  to 
$20,639  millions.  Marketable  securities  were  on  sale  during  the 
formal  period  of  the  drive,  from  June  12  through  July  8,  1944.  Sales 
of  savings  bonds  and  savings  notes  through  June  and  July  were 
counted  in  total  subscriptions  to  the  loan.  In  this  summary  and  in 
all  tables  referring  to  the  Fifth  War  Loan,  the  subscriptions  credited 
to  the  loan  in  July  are  included,  but  they  are  excluded  from  all  general 
tables  referring  to  public  debt  operations  for  the  fiscal  year.  Major 
emphasis  tlu^oughout  the  drive  was  placed  on  the  quota  of  $6,000 
millions  for  individuals,  which  was  oversubscribed  by  $351  millions. 
Eight  securities  were  offered  in  the  Fifth  War  Loan.  Seven  issues 
were  similar  to  those  sold  in  the  first  foiu*  drives,  and  a  new  one,  an 
issue  of  Iji  percent  Treasury  notes,  due  March  15,  1947,  was  offered. 
The  securities  offered  were  as  follows: 

Marketable  securities,  all  of  which  were  dated  June  26,   1944, 
except  the  2}^  percent  bonds: 

%  percent  certificates  of  indebtedness  due  June  1,  1945; 

V/i  percent  Treasury  notes  due  March  15,  1947; 

2  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  June  15,  1952,  due  June 

15,  1954;  and 
2%  percent  Treasury  bonds  callable  March  15,   1965,  due 
March  15,  1970,  and  dated  February  1,  1944.     (This  was 
a  reopening  of  the  issue  sold  in  the  Fourth  War  Loan.)

During  the  drive,  a  deferred  payment  plan  of  somewhat  wider  scope 
than  that  offered  in  the  Third  War  Loan  was  made  available  whereby 
life  insurance  companies,  as  well  as  savings  institutions,  State  and 
local  governmental  units,  and  similar  public  corporations  and  agencies 
could  have  until  September  30,  1944,  to  complete  payments  for  sub- 
scriptions to  the  two  issues  of  Treasury  bonds.  Subscriptions  entered 
under  these  arrangements  aggregated  $340  millions.  Those  were 
included  in  the  total  sales  of  $20,639  millions. 

Sales  by  securities,  by  investor  classes,  and  by  States  are  shown  in 
detail  in  the  tables  beginning  on  page  680.  Sak^s  by  investor  groups, 
compared  with  the  goals,  and  sales  of  each  issue  to  each  investor

As  was  the  practice  in  the  Fourth  War  Loan,  purchases  by  Treas- 
ury investment  accounts  and  the  Umited  purchases  allowed  commer- 
cial banks  concurrently  with  the  drive  were  excluded  from  both  goals 
and  sales  attributable  to  the  Fifth  War  Loan,  Commercial  banks  were 
permitted  to  subscribe  to  the  2  percent  and  2^  percent  bonds  offered  in 
the  drive,  as  well  as  to  Series  F  and  G  savings  bonds,  up  to  20  percent 
of  the  combined  amount  of  savings  deposits  and  time  certificates  of 
deposit  of  individuals  and  nonprofit  corporations  or  associations  (as 
of  the  most  recent  call  statement  prior  to  the  date  of  subscribing  for 
the  bonds)  but  not  more  than  $400,000  for  any  one  bank.  This  limit, 
however,  was  cumulative,  and  included  any  previous  subscriptions  a 
bank  might  have  entered,  for  its  own  account,  for  Series  F  or  G  savings 
bonds  since  January  1,  1944,  or  for  2%  percent  and  2}^  percent  Treas- 
ury bonds  offered  during  the  Fourth  War  Loan.  Purchases  of  Series  F 
and  Series  G  bonds  remained  subject  to  the  $100,000  annual  limit  re- 
ferred to  in  connection  with  the  Fourth  War  Loan.  Except  for  the 
limited  investment  of  time  and  savings  deposits  as  defined  above,  com- 
mercial banks  may  not  hold  the  2}^  percent  bonds  until  February  1, 
1954.

United  States  savings  bonds 
Savings  bond  sales. — Total  sales  of  savings  bonds  during  the  fiscal 
year  1944  amounted  to  $15,498  millions,  issue  price.  This  reflected 
an  increase  of  $3,709  millions  over  sales  in  1943.  As  of  June  30,  1944, 
the  current  redemption  value  of  United  States  savings  bonds  out- 
standing, including  those  sold  before  1944,  amounted  to  $34,606 
millions.  This  amount  was  17.2  percent  of  the  public  debt  outstand- 
ing, as  compared  with  15.5  percent  a  year  earlier.  Savings  bonds 
were  sold  in  1944  in  greater  volume  than  in  any  earlier  year,  continuing 
to  absorb  funds  which  otherwise  might  have  contributed  to  the 
inflationary  pressure  on  price  levels  and  made  the  task  of  economic 
stabilization  more  difficult.  More  information  on  savings  bonds,  by 
series,  from  March  1935,  the  month  when  savings  bonds  (Series  A) 
were  first  sold,  through  June  30,  1944,  is  contained  in  the  tables 
beginning  on  page  684.  Sales  of  savings  bonds,  Series  E,  F,  and  G, 
those  issued  tlu'oughout  the  war  period,  are  shown  by  series  in  the 
following  table  and  in  Chart  6  on  page  49.

Continued  advancement  of  the  payroll  savings  plan  contributed 
substantially  to  the  aggregate  increase  in  sales  of  war  savings  bonds. 
Sales  of  Series  E  bonds  under  this  plan  during  the  fiscal  year  amounted 
to  more  than  $5.5  billions,  or  about  47  percent  of  the  total  amount  of  . 
all  Series  E  bonds  sold  during  the  year.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


Chart  8  on  page  53  summarizes  the  growth  of  the  plan  since  its 
beginning  in  the  latter  part  of  the  calendar  year  1941.  The  following 
table  shows  the  extent  of  participation  in  the  plan  monthly  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944.  A  tendency  will  be  noted  for  the  amount  of 
payroll  deductions  to  be  somewhat  higher  during  war  loan  months 
than  the  average  of  monthly  deductions  during  the  year,  as,  for  exam- 
ple, m  January  and  June  1944.  This  reflects  the  authorization  by 
employees  of  supplementary  deductions  during  drives.  Further  data 
may  be  found  in  the  table  on  page  698  of  this  report.

Included  among  the  firms  having  the  payroll  savings  plan  in  oper- 
ation at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  were  99  percent  of  the  firms  with  500 
or  more  employees  and  94  percent  of  those  with  100  to  500  employees. 
The  persons  employed  by  these  firms  represented  about  85.4  percent  of 
the  total  employees  of  business  and  industry  in  the  country  at  the  end 
of  the  fiscal  year. 

Sales  of  Series  F  and  G  savings  bonds  increased  at  a  more  moderate 
rate  than  sales  of  Series  E  bonds  during  the  year.  On  June  30,  1944, 
Series  F  bonds  outstanding  amounted  to  $1,996  millions,  at  current 
redemption  values,  and  Series  G  bonds  amounted  to  $7,861  millions, 
at  issue  price.  This  was  a  net  increase,  for  the  two  series  combined, 
of  $3,495  millions  over  the  amount  outstanding  on  June  30,  1943. 
As  noted  previously,  beginning  January  1,  1944,  commercial  banks 
were  permitted  to  purchase  Series  F  and  G  bonds  in  a  limited  amount 
determined  by  their  savuigs  deposits,  subject  also  to  the  annual  pur- 
chase limit  of  $100,000  of  th3  two  series  combined,  to  which  all  sub- 
scribers are  subject.  Purchases  of  Series  F  savings  bonds  under  this 
authorization  amounted  to  $111  millions  through  June  30,  1944,  and 
purchases  of  Series  G  bonds  to  $247  millions.

dividuals,  which  is  part  of  the  broader  program  of  economic  stabiliza- 
tion. The  success  of  this  program  requires,  at  the  present  time,  that 
savings  bonds  be  retained  by  their  purchasers.  There  is  every  reason 
to  beheve  that,  on  the  whole,  this  has  been  done,  and  that  most  of  those 
redemptions  which  have  occurred  were  the  result  of  personal  emer- 
gencies which  would  have  required  the  liquidation  of  savings  in  what- 
ever forms  they  might  have  been  held. 

Redemptions  of  all  series  of  savings  bonds  durmg  the  fiscal  year 
amounted  to  $2,371  millions,  including  accrued  discount.  The  table 
following  shows  redemptions  for  all  series  annually  from  1941  through

accruals,  and  redemptions,  at  current  redemption  values,  are  com- 
pared in  Chart  9  on  page  55.  Between  May  1,  1941,  when  Series  E,  F, 
and  G  bonds  were  first  issued,  and- June  30,  1944,  sales  of  these  series 
amounted  to  $34,108  millions,  including  accrued  discount  of  $164 
millions.  Redemptions  in  the  same  period  amounted  to  $3,127  mil- 
lions, or  about  9.2  percent  of  sales.  Thus,  nearly  91  percent  of  Series 
E,  F,  and  G  bonds  sold  were  still  outstanding  on  June  30,  1944. 

Sales  of  Series  E  war  savings  bonds  between  May  1,  1941,  and  June

$153  millions.  Redemptions  in  the  same  period  amounted  to  $2,849 
millions,  or  11.9  percent.  Therefore,  88.1  percent  of  the  original  sales

Cumulative  sales  of  Series  F  bonds  between  May  1,  1941  and  June 
30,  1944,  amounted  to  $2,073  millions,  including  $12  millions  of  accrued 
discount,  while  cumulative  redemptions  were  $78  millions.  Com- 
parable figures  for  Series  G  savings  bonds  are  sales  of  $8,062  millions 
and  redemptions  of  $201  millions.  Thus,  about  96.3  percent  of  Series 
F  bonds  and  97.5  percent  of  Series  G  bonds  remaii>ed  outstanding  at 
the  end  of  the  fiscal  year.

Redemptions  of  the  smaller  denominations  of  Series  E  bonds  con- 
stitute a  larger  proportion  of  accumulated  sales  of  these  denominations 
than  do  redemptions  of  the  larger  denominations.  As  of  June  30,  1944, 
about  21  percent  of  the  $25  Series  E  bonds  had  been  redeemed,  as 
compared  with  about  12  percent  of  all  Series  E  bonds.    Redemptions 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY

of  $50  Series  E  bonds  in  relation  to  sales,  amounting  to  about  13  per- 
cent, were  not  greatly  different  from  redemptions  of  all  denomina- 
tions of  Series  E  bonds  combined.  Redemptions  of  bonds  of  $100, 
$500,  and  $1,000  denominations  were  a  smaller  proportion  of  the 
cumulative  sales  than  redemptions  of  all  denominations,  and  ex- 
hibited very  little  variation  as  between  these  denominations.  A 
relatively  larger  volume  of  redemptions  in  the  small  denominations 
is,  of  course,  to  be  expected.  Individuals  with  small  incomes  who 
purchase  bonds  in  small  units  are  less  likely  than  individuals  with 
large  incomes  who  purchase  bonds  in  large  units  to  have  other  liquid 
savings  on  which  they  can  draw  in  emergencies.  There  is  also  the 
possibility,  although  it  is  not  capable  of  statistical  demonstration, 
that  individuals  who  find  it  necessary  to  liquidate  their  holdings  of 
savings  bonds  cash  their  smaller  denomination  bonds  before  cashing 
bonds  of  larger  denominations,  and  there  is  the  probability  that  the 
majority  of  personal  financial  emergencies  involve  relatively  small  sums. 
The  table  which  follows  compares  redemptions  of  all  series  of  United 
States  savings  bonds  with  the  amounts  outstanding,  annually  for  the

'  At  current  redemption  values,  except  Series  G  bonds  which  are  valued  at  par. 

In  view  of  the  predominance  of  Series  E  savings  bonds  and  of  the 
special  importance  of  their  redemption  for  the  problem  of  economic 
stabilization,  it  may  be  of  interest  also  to  note  particularly  the  montlily 
trend  of  Series  E  bond  redemptions.  While  the  percentage  of  redemp- 
tions to  total  amounts  outstanding  increased  during  the  fiscal  year 
1944,  in  no  month  did  the  rate  reach  the  peak  of  1.31  percent  reached 
in  March  1943.  The  following  table  shows  the  ratio  of  Series  E 
savings  bond  redemptioiis  to  the  amount  of  E  bonds  outstanding  by 
months  in  the  past  three  fiscal  years.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


59 


The  table  shows  a  gradual  increase  in  the  cumulative  proportion 
of  bonds  redeemed  with  the  increase  in  the  number  of  years  that  a 
particular  annual  series  has  been  outstanding.  Thirty-one  percent  of 
the  1935  series  had  been  redeemed  at  the  end  of  9  years.  The  table 
also  shows  that  redemptions  of  Series  E  bonds  issued  from  January  1, 
1942,  have  been  considerably  higher  during  the  first  two  years  of  their 
currency  than  in  the  case  of  the  pre-war  issues  of  Series  A-E  bonds — 
cumulative  redemptions  at  the  end  of  two  years  amounting  to  15 
percent  as  compared  with  10  percent  for  the  average  of  the  pre-war 
issues.  This  increase  has  been  entirely  accounted  for  by  redemptions 
of  $25  and  $50  bonds,  as  redemptions  of  bonds  of  $100  and  higher 
denominations  have  been  slightly  lower  in  the  case  of  bonds  issued 
since  our  entry  into  the  war  than  in  the  case  of  those  issued  previously. 
Redemptions  of  Series  F  and  G  bonds  have  been  much  lower  than 
those  of  Series  A-E  bonds  irrespective  of  date  of  issuance. 

Issuing  agents  for  war  savings  bonds.- — At  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year 
there  were  54,454  agents  qualified  to  issue  Series  E  war  savings  bonds, 
an  increase  of  over  3,000  since  June  1943.  These  figures  include  a 
small  number  of  subagents  and  branches  of  issuing  agencies. 

An  increasing  number  of  nonfinancial  corporations  have  qualified 
as  issuing  agents  in  order  that  bond  deliveries  may  be  made  more 
rapidly  to  their  employees.  Posfcofl5ce  issuing  agents  continued  to 
increase  during  the  year,  in  part  as  a  result  of  changes  in  classifications 
of  post  offices  from  a  lower  to  a  higher  class,  and  partly  in  response 
to  the  demand  for  a  larger  number  of  readily  available  outlets  for 
sales  to  small  investors. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  and  types  of  issuing  agents 
in  June  1944,  and  quarterly  for  the  preceding  year.

ized for  sale  exclusively  to  members  of  the  armed  forces  through  such

vide within  their  respective  agencies. 


60        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

War  savings  stamps 

Sales  of  war  savings  stamps  for  the  fiscal  year  totaled  $409  millions, 
while  redemptions  amomited  to  $426  millions.  Of  the  amomit 
redeemed.  $353  millions,  or  83  percent,  were  exchanged  for  United 
States  savings  bonds.  A  balance  of  $197  millions  was  outstanding 
at  the  end  of 'the  fiscal  year.  Data  on  sales  and  redemptions  of 
savings  stamps  from  May  1,  1941,  through  June  30,  1944,  are  shown 
in  the  tables  beginning  on  page  699. 

Treasury  notes:  tax  series  and  savings  series 

Sales  of  Series  C  Treasury  savings  notes  during  the  fiscal  year  ended 
June  30,  1944,  amounted  to  $8,954  millions.  Redemptions  of  Series 
C  notes  during  the  year  amounted  to  $5,970  millions.  Matm-ities  and 
redemptions  of  Series  A  and  B  tax  savings  notes  brought  the  total 
redemptions  of  tax  series  and  savings  series  Treasury  notes  to 
$6,867  millions,  of  which  $6,365  millions,  or  93  percent,  were  applied 
to  the  payment  of  taxes.  Tax  savings  notes  of  Series  A-1943,  A-1944, 
B-1943,  and  B-1944,  matured  during  the  fiscal  year.  There  re- 
mained outstanding  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  unmatured  tax  notes 
of  Series  A-1945  in  the  amount  of  $109  millions.  No  Series  A  tax 
savings  notes  were  offered  during  the  fiscal  year,  the  occasion  for 
their  issuance  having  ceased  when  the  CmTent  Tax  Payment  Act 
became  effective.  Series  B  notes  were  superseded  during  the  previous 
year  by  Series  C  notes. 

On  July  27,  1943,  the  requii'emant  of  30  days'  notice  for  the  redemp- 
tion for  cash  of  Series  C  Treasury  savings  notes  was  eliminated  by 
Department  Circular  No.  696.  An  amendment,  dated  October  4, 
1943,  to  Department  Circular  No.  695  removed  the  maximum  limita- 
tion of  $5,000  par  value  on  the  amount  of  Series  A  tax  savings  notes 
which  could  be  used  by  each  taxpayer  in  payment  of  each  class  of  tax 
(income,  estate,  or  gift)  during  a  single  taxable  year.  By  the  first  of 
these  changes,  Series  C  notes  were  converted  into  a  more  liquid  short- 
term  investment  instrument,  suitable  for  accumulation  either  of  cor- 
poration tax  reserves,  or  of  other  liquid  reserves  including  reserves 
set  aside  for  post-war  reconversion.  The  second  of  these  two  changes 
was  designed  to  facilitate  the  final  hquidation  of  Series  A  notes  and 
to  avoid  imposing  unnecessary  inconvenience  upon  holders  of  such 
notes  who  might  have  acquired  them  in  anticipation  of  tax  liabilities 
which  are  now  discharged  by  withholding.  Amendments  to  the  cir- 
culars referred  to  above  are  shown  beginning  on  page  336  of  this  report. 

Treasury  bills 

Offerings  of  Treasury  bills  were  made  each  week  during  the  year; 
43  issues  were  for  a  term  of  91  days,  7  issues  were  for  a  term  of  92 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        61 

days,  and  2  issues  were  for  a  term  of  90  days.  The  amount  of  the 
weekly  offerings  was  $1,000  millions  at  the  start  of  the  year,  but  was 
increased  to  $1,200  millions  for  the  last  8  issues  of  the  year.  The  13 
issues  outstanding  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  totaled  $11,864  mil- 
lions; the  13  issues  outstanding  at  the  end  of  the  year  totaled  $14,734 
millions.  Of  the  52  issues  offered  during  the  year,  all  were  sold  at  a 
positive  average  rate  of  discount,  the  average  rate  on  all  bills  issued 
during  the  year  being  0.375  percent.  Owing  to  the  continuing  influ- 
ence of  a  posted  buying  rate  of  %  of  1  percent  established  at  the  Fed- 
eral Reserve  Banks,  pursuant  to  directions  of  the  Federal  Open  Mar- 
ket Committee  on  April  30,  1942,  there  was  little  fluctuation  in  the 
rate  from  week  to  week. 

As  mentioned  in  last  year's  annual  report,  announcement  was 
made  on  May  6,  1943,  that  in  the  interest  of  a  wider  distribution  of 
Treasury  bills,  offerings,  beginning  with  the  issue  dated  May  12,  1943, 
and  thereafter  until  further  notice,  would  include  provision  for  the 
receipt  of  tenders  for  $100,000  or  less  from  any  one  bidder  at  a  fixed 
price  of  $99,905  per  $100  face  value,  in  addition  to  the  conventional 
bidding  on  a  competitive  basis.  This  provision  was  contained  in  all 
offerings  of  Treasury  bills  durmg  the  fiscal  year  1944,  Bids  on  a 
fixed  price  basis  averaged  about  $62  millions  a  week  during  the  year 
ended  June  30,  1944,  and  amounted  in  the  aggregate  to  about  6  per- 
cent of  all  bids  accepted. 

Further  information  concerning  Treasury  bills  will  be  found  in  the 
exhibits  beginning  on  page  311,  and  in  the  table  on  page  655. 

Market  financing  outside  oj  war  loan  drives 

Three  market  offerings  of  Treasury  securities  other  than  bills  were 
made  for  cash  during  the  year,  independently  of  the  war  loan  drives 
discussed  above.  The  first  of  these  was  an  issue  of  1  Yi  percent  Treas- 
ury notes  dated  July  12,  1943,  and  maturing  September  15,  1947. 
Subscription  books  for  this  offering  were  opened  on  June  28,  1943,  and 
remained  open  for  2  days.  Of  cash  subscriptions  totaling  $19,544 
millions,  $2,707  millions  were  allotted  and  issued. 

In  connection  with  the  refunding  of  an  issue  of  certificates  of  in- 
debtedness, due  August  1,  1943,  and  outstanding  in  the  amount  of 
$1,609  millions,  cash  subscriptions  were  accepted,  from  commercial 
banks  only,  for  an  additional  $900  millions,  or  thereabouts,  of  the  se- 
curities offered  in  exchange — %  percent  1-year  certificates  of  indebt- 
edness, due  August  1,  1944.  Books  for  the  cash  portion  of  this  offering 
were  opened  on  July  22,  1943,  and  closed  the  same  day.  Of  cash  sub- 
scriptions from  banks  amounting  to  $5,484  millions,  $989  millions  were 
allotted  and  issued. 

Following  the  Third  War  Loan,  and  in  accordance  with  an  announce- 
ment made  at  the  time  the  terms  of  the  Third  War  Loan  securities

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


were  made  public,  there  were  offered,  on  October  6,  1943,  for  the 
exclusive  subscription  of  commercial  banks,  an  issue  of  about  $1,500 
millions  of  %  percent  certificates  of  indebtedness  dated  October  15, 
1943,  and  maturing  October  1,1944,  which  were  also  offered  at  the 
same  time  in  exchange  for  %  percent  certificates  of  indebtedness 
maturing  November  1,  1943;  and  a  like  amount  of  the  2  percent 
Treasury  bonds  of  1951-53  which  were  originally  issued  in  connection 
with  the  Third  War  Loan.  Cash  subscriptions  to  the  certificates  of 
indebtedness  amounted  to  $5,386  millions,  of  which  $1,580  millions 
were  allotted.  Cash  subscriptions  to  the  2  percent  bonds  amounted 
to  $5,531  millions,  of  which  $1,627  millions  were  allotted. 

No  other  cash  offerings  of  marketable  securities,  other  than  bills, 
were  made  during  the  year  except  those  made  contemporaneously 
with,  but  not  as  part  of,  the  Fourth  and  Fifth  War  Loan  drives,  for  the 
limited  investment  of  time  deposits  of  commercial  banks  and  for  the 
convenience  of  Treasury  investment  accounts.  The  results  of  these 
offerings  have  been  described  already  in  the  discussion  of  the  Fourth 
and  Fifth  War  Loans. 

Two  issues  of  Treasury  notes,  an  issue  of  Reconstruction  Finance 
Corporation  notes,  and  an  issue  of  Federal  Public  Housing  Authority 
notes  matured  during  the  year  and  were  paid  off  in  cash.  The  essential

Announcement  was  made  on  June  7,  1943,  that  the  3%  percent 
Treasury  bonds  of  1943-45,  originally  issued  in  1933  in  part  for  cash 
and  in  part  in  exchange  for  bonds  of  the  Fourth  Liberty  Loan,  were 
called  for  redemption  on  October  15,  1943.  Holders  of  these  bonds 
were  offered  in  exchange  additional  issues  of  the  2  percent  Treasury 
bonds  of  1951-53  and  the  2}^  percent  Treasury  bonds  of  1964-69, 
which  had  been  offered  in  the  Third  War  Loan,  subject  to  the  restric- 
tion upon  commercial  bank  holdings  of  the  2%  percent  bonds.  Of  the 
$1,401  milKons  of  3%  percent  bonds  outstanding,  $1,102  millions  were 
exchanged  for  2  percent  Treasury  bonds  of  1951-53,  and  $59  millions 
were  exchanged  for  2%  percent  Treasury  bonds  of  1964-09.  A  balance 
of  $239  millions  remained  for  repayment  in  cash. 

In  a  single  large-scale  operation,  the  Treasury  refunded,  on  March 
15,  1944,  securities  which  were  outstanding  in  the  amount  of  $4,729 
millions.  These  securities  consisted  of  all  notes  and  bonds  becoming 
due  or  callable  between  March  15  and  June  15,  1944.  There  were 
seven  separate  Treasury  and  guaranteed  issues  involved  in  the  refund- 
ing and  tlu"ee  issues  were  offered  in  exchange. 

Descriptions  of  the  seven  maturing  securities  are  shown  in  the 
following  table.

The  three  issues  offered  in  exchange  consisted  of  reopenings  of  the 
two  marketable  Fourth  War  Loan  bonds — the  2M  percent  Treasury 
bonds  of  1956-59  and  the  2}^  percent  Treasury  bonds  of  1965-70 — 
and  a  new  1%  percent  Treasury  note  due  September  15,  1948.  Holders 
other  than  commercial  banks  were  permitted  to  exchange  into  any  of 
the  three  securities  available;  commercial  banks,  however,  were  per- 
mitted to  exchange  only  into  the  notes. 


64        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  two  bond  issues  offered  in  exchange  were  both  dated  February 
1,  1944,  whereas  the  note  issue  was  dated  March  15,  1944.  The  re- 
funded securities  carried  various  maturity  and  call  dates  from  March 
15,  1944,  through  June  15,  1944.  In  most  cases  the  maturity  date  of 
the  old  security  and  the  issue  date  of  the  new  security  did  not  coincide, 
thereby  necessitating  interest  adjustments. 

In  general,  the  adjustment  was  made  by  allowing  intsrest  on  the 
old  issue  to  its  maturity  date  (call  date  in  the  case  of  securities  called 
for  redemption)  and  then  deducting  accrued  interest  on  the  new  issue 
for  the  period  of  the  overlap.  There  were  some  exceptions  to  this 
general  rule.  In  the  case  of  the  1  percent  Reconstruction  Finance 
Corporation  notes  due  April  15,  1944,  the  interest  was  adjusted  as  of 
March  15.  Holders  of  the  ji  p3rcent  Treasury  notes  due  June  15, 
1944,  were  permitted  to  ebct  whether  interest  would  be  adjusted  as  of 
March  15  or  June  15. 

The  foregoing  interest  adjustments  were  desirable  in  view  of  the 
diversity  of  interest  rates  and  tax-exemption  provisions  of  ths  ma- 
turing issues.  Many  holders  of  the  partially  or  wholly  tax-exempt 
issues  caDed  for  redemption  after  March  15  would  have  had  a  strong 
incentive  not  to  accept  an  exchange  offer  which  did  not  permit  them 
to  receive,  in  effect,  the  benefit  of  the  interest  rate  and  tax-exemption 
status  of  their  old  securities  up  to  their  respective  call  dates.  In  the 
case  of  the  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  notes,  on  the  other 
hand,  holders  were  given  the  benefit  of  the  higher  coupon  rates  on 
the  new  issues  as  an  inducement  to  accept  the  exchange.  The  ques- 
tion of  tax  exemption  did  not  arise  because  these  maturing  notes  were 
taxable.  Holders  of  the  %  percent  wholly  tax-exempt  Treasury  notes 
were  given  the  opportunity  of  deciding  which  security  they  would,  in 
effect,  receive  interest  on  during  the  overlap  period  because  the 
holder's  income  tax  position  would  determine  which  alternative  would 
be  the  more  advantageous. 

The  subscription  books  were  opened  on  March  2.  They  were 
closed  on  March  8  for  subscriptions  in  payment  of  w^hich  maturing 
notes  were  tendered,  and  on  March  11  for  subscriptions  in  payment 
of  which  called  bonds  were  tendered.  In  the  case,  however,  of  in- 
vestors whose  total  holdings  of  the  refunded  securities  were  $100,000 
or  less,  the  subscription  books  were  kept  open  through  March  15. 

The  volume  of  old  securities  exchanged  for  new  securities  totaled 
$3,919  millions,  or  83  percent  of  the  old  securities  outstanding.  The 
following  table  shows  the  amount  and  the  percentage  of  each  matur- 
ing security  which  was  exchanged  for  new  securities.

Adjusted  service  bonds 

Adjusted  service  bonds  of  1945,  amounting  to  $1.4  millions,  were 
issued  during  the  year,  making  a  total  of  $1,843  millions  of  such  bonds 
issued  since  June  15,  1936,  in  payment  of  amounts  due  on  adjusted 
service  certificates.  Redemptions  of  $6.0  millions  of  these  bonds 
during  the  year  brought  the  total  redemptions  since  June  15,  1936, 
to  $1,625  millions,  and  left  $217  millions  outstanding  on  June  30, 
1944.  Further  data  on  adjusted  service  bonds  appear  in  the  table 
on  page  612. 

Depositary  bonds 

Issuance  of  the  First  Series  of  depositary  bonds,  as  authorized  by 
Department  Circular  No.  660,  dated  May  23,  1941,  was  continued 
during  the  year  to  the  various  qualified  depositaries  and  financial 
agents  m  amounts  not  exceedmg  the  amount  for  which  each  depositary 
and  financial  agency  had  qualified.  The  total  issued  during  the  year 
amounted  to  $186  millions,  and  redemptions  for  the  year  amounted 
to  $27  millions,  leaving  $385  millions  outstanding  on  June  30,  1944, 

Under  date  of  June  29,  1943,  the  Secretary  gave  notice  of  the  issu- 
ance of  2  percent  depositary  bonds,  Second  Series,  at  par,  to  deposi- 
taries for  withheld  taxes  qualifying  under  Department  Chcular  No. 
714,  dated  June  25,  1943.  All  transactions  in  connection  with  the 
issue,  redemption,  and  payment  of  interest  on  these  bonds  are  con- 
ducted by  Federal  Reserve  Banks,  as  fiscal  agents  of  the  United  States 
acting  for  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury.     The  bonds  of  the  Second 

613185—45 6 


66        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Series  are  dated  on  the  actual  date  of  issuance  on  and  after  July  1, 
1943.  They  bear  interest  at  2  percent  from  the  date  payment  therefor 
is  received,  on  a  semiannual  basis  on  January  1  and  July  1,  and  mature 
12  years  from  such  date,  but  may  be  redeemed  at  the  option  of  the 
United  States  or  of  the  depositary  for  withheld  taxes  upon  not  less 
than  30  nor  more  than  60  days'  notice  in  writing  by  either  party  to  the 
other.  The  bonds  are  issued  only  in  the  name  of  the  Federal  Reserve 
Bank,  in  the  district  in  which  the  depositary  is  located,  as  fiscal  agent 
of  the  United  States  in  trust  for  such  depositary  and  are  not  trans- 
ferable. The  total  issues  during  the  year  amounted  to  $100  millions 
and  redemptions  amounted  to  $11  millions,  leaving  a  balance  of  $89 
millions  outstanding  at  the  end  of  the  year. 

Excess  profits  tax  refund  bonds    ' 

Treasury  Depgirtment  Circular  No.  728,  dated  December  31,  1943, 
prescribed  regulations  governing  the  issuance  of  excess  profits  tax 
refund  bonds  under  the  provisions  of  the  Second  Liberty  Bond  Act, 
as  amended,  and  pursuant  to  sections  780  through  783  of  the  Internal 
Revenue  Code,  as  amended.  Section  780  creates  a  credit  of  an  amount 
equal  to  10  percent  of  the  excess  profits  tax,  imposed  by  Subchapter  E 
of  Chapter  2  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  for  each  taxable  year 
ending  after  December  31,  1941  (except  in  the  case  of  a  taxable  year 
beginning  in  1941  and  ending  before  July  1,  1942),  and  not  beginning 
after  the  date  of  cessation  of  hostilities  in  the  present  war.  Section 
780  also  provides  for  the  issue  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  of 
bonds  of  the  United  States  in  an  aggregate  amount  equal  to  the  10 
percent  excess  profits  tax  credit. 

The  bonds  are  issued  in  series  according  to  the  calendar  year  in  which 
the  credit  used  to  purchase  the  bonds  arose.  Those  purchased  with 
the  credits  for  any  taxable  years  beginning  in  1941  and  1942  are  com- 
bined and  are  designated  "First  Series";  those  purchased  with  1943  and 
1944  credits  constitute  the  "Second  Series"  and  the  "Thu'd  Series", 
respectively.  Those  purchased  with  credits  for  taxable  years  begin- 
ning after  December  31,  1944,  will  be  designated  "Fourth  Series." 
Bonds  of  the  First,  Second,  Third,  and  Fourth  Series  will  mature, 
respectively,  on  the  last  day  of  the  second,  third,  fourth,  and  fifth 
calendar  years  beginning  after  the  cessation  of  hostilities  in  the  present 
war,  but  will  be  redeemable  after  the  cessation  of  hostilities  (at  the 
option  of  the  United  States),  in  whole  or  in  part,  upon  3  months' 
notice. 

The  bonds  are  issued  following  certification  by  the  Commissioner 
of  Internal  Revenue  of  the  amount  of  bonds  to  which  a  taxpayer  is 
entitled,  and  are  issued  only  in  registered  form  in  the  name  so  certi- 
fied; each  bond  is  dated  as  of  the  day  the  credit  available  for  its  pur- 
chase is  transferred  to  the  Public  Debt  account. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        67 

The  bonds  bear  no  interest,  are  nonnegotiable,  and  may  not  be 
transferred  by  sale,  exchange,  assignment,  pledge,  hypothecation,  or 
otherwise,  on  or  before  the  date  of  the  cessation  of  hostilities.  After 
such  date  the  bonds  will  be  fully  negotiable  and  may  be  exchanged  or 
transferred  without  restriction. 

The  total  issues  of  these  bonds  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted 
to  $134  millions.  A  copy  of  Department  Circular  No.  728  appears 
on  page  343  of  this  report. 

Special  issues 

During  the  fiscal  year  the  Treasury  continued  to  issue  special 
series  of  interest-bearing  securities  for  the  investment  of  trust  or  other 
funds  deposited  in  the  Treasury.  The  amount  of  such  obligations 
increased  by  $3,416  millions  during  the  year.  Details  will  be  found 
in  the  table  on  page  615  of  this  report. 

Special  short-term,  certificates  oj  indebtedness 

Special  short-term  certificates  of  indebtedness  were  sold  in  Septem- 
ber 1943,  directly  and  solely  to  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks.  These 
certificates  were  issued  prior  to  the  Thu'd  War  Loan  when  the  Treasury 
permitted  its  balances  with  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  to  become 
exhausted  in  anticipation  of  the  sale  of  securities  during  the  drive. 
The  certificates  were  issued  only  to  the  extent  of  the  overdraft  thus 
incurred.  The  details  of  the  issue  will  be  found  in  the  table  on  page 
655  of  this  report. 

Cumulative  sinking  fund 

Credits  accruing  to  the  cumulative  sinking  fund  during  the  year 
amounted  to  $588  millions  wliich,  added  to  the  unexpended  balance 
of  $3,762  millions  brought  forward  from  the  previous  year,  made 
available  $4,350  millions  for  the  year.  None  of  the  funds  were  used 
for  the  retirement  of  bonds  and  notes  which  matured  or  which  were 
called  during  the  fiscal  year  1944.  The  unexpended  balance  of  $4,350 
millions  was  carried  forward  to  the  fiscal  year  1945. 

Tables  presenting  the  transactions  on  account  of  the  fund  for  1944 
and  since  its  inception  on  July  1,  1920,  will  be  found  on  pages  665 
and  666  of  this  report. 

Composition  oj  the  public  debt 

The  gross  pubhc  debt  on  June  30,  1944,  amounted  to  $201,003 
millions,  an  increase  of  $64,307  millions  during  the  fiscal  year.  Chart

■  A  table  covering  obligations  guaranteed  by  the  United  States  for  these  dates  appears  on  p.  75. 

The  largest  percentage  increases  in  outstanding  marketable  issues 
were  in  Treasury  notes  and  certificates  of  indebtedness.  Despite 
these  large  increases  durmg  the  year,  these  two  classes  of  marketable 
securities  together  still  represent  less  than  one-fourth  of  the  gross 
public  debt.  Treasury  bills  mcreased  by  24.2  percent  during  the  year. 
As  this  increase  was  less  than  the  average  increase  for  the  entire  debt, 
bills  declined  during  the  year  in  their  relative  importance  as  a  com- 
ponent of  the  debt.  United  States  savings  bonds  outstanding  in- 
creased from  15.5  percent  to  17.2  percent  of  the  gross  debt  during  the 
fiscal  year  1944. 

The  table  on  page  70  shows  the  maturity  distribution  of  the  public 
debt  on  the  basis  of  time  to  final  maturity,  and  also  on  the  basis  of 
time  to  the  earliest  date  at  which  it  may  be  repaid,  either  at  the  option 
of  the  Government  or  at  that  of  the  holder,  on  June  30,  1943,  and 
June  30,  1944.     There  has  been  little  change  during  the  fiscal  year

in  the  proportionate  distribution  of  maturities.  About  47.8  percent 
of  the  outstanding  pubHc  debt  and  guaranteed  obhgations  mature 
or  may  be  paid  within  one  year.  Almost  the  same  percentage  re- 
lationship prevailed  on  June  30,  1943.  About  60.3  percent  of  out- 
standing interest-bearing  obligations  mature  or  may  be  paid  within 
five  years.  This,  too,  is  approximately  the  same  proportion  as  on 
June  30,  1943. 

When  the  classification  is  in  terms  of  final  maturities  rather  than 
of  the  earliest  possible  payment  dates,  the  proportion  due  within  one 
year  falls  to  about  half  of  the  proportion  redeemable,  at  the  option  of 
either  the  Government  or  the  holder,  within  the  same  period.  The 
proportion  maturing  within  five  years  is  about  40.5  percent,  as  com- 
pared with  about  60.3  percent  redeemable  within  that  period.

'  Whether  optional  with  the  Treasury  or  with  the  holder. 

'  Securities  redeemable  at  the  ovraer's  demand  (United  States  savings  bonds,  Treasury  savings  notes, 
adjusted  service  bonds,  and  depositary  bonds)  have  been  classified  as  redeemable  in  1  year  or  less. 
'  Held  by  United  States  Government  agencies  and  trust  funds. 

The  concentration  of  the  pubhc  marketable  issues  in  short  matu- 
rities has  been  predominantly  the  result  of  the  issuance  during  the 
war  period  of  large  volumes  of  Treasury  bills  and  certificates  of 
indebtedness.  It  has  been  only  secondarily  the  result  of  the  ap- 
proach to  maturity  of  long-term  securities  previously  issued.  As  has 
been  indicated  in  the  introduction  to  this  report,  issuance  of  these 
securities  has  served  both  to  maintain  the  liquidity  of  the  banking 
system  and  of  business  in  general  and  to  keep  low  the  interest  cost 
of  wartime  borrowing.  Securities  of  longer  term  could  have  been 
issued  at  higher  interest  rates,  but  it  is  improbable  that  such  action 
would  have  altered  significantly  ihe  proportions  of  borrowed  funds 
which  the  Treasury  obtained  from  "various  sources.  Banks  and  busi- 
ness corporations  would  now  hold  more  long-term  securities  than  they 
do  and  would  have  suffered  a  loss  of  liquidity  in  consequence  of  the 
change.  At  the  same  time  the  Treasury  would  have  been  under  the 
necessity  of  paying  higher  interest  rates  for  funds  which  were  avail- 
able to  the  Treasury  very  largely  because  restrictions  on  peacetime 
production  entailed  restricted  alternative  investment  opportunities. 

United  States  savings  bonds  constitute  about  17  percent  of  the 
gross  debt;  Treasury  notes,  tax  series  and  savings  series,  constitute 
about  5  percent.     These  securities,  although  issued  for  fixed  terms  of 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        71 

years,  are  redeemable  at  the  owner's  demand  (in  which  case  they  pay 
interest  at  rates  appropriate  to  the  length  of  time  they  have  been 
held  rather  than  at  the  higher  rates  which  are  earned  if  they  are  held 
to  maturity).  They  may  be  considered,  therefore,  as  in  fact  short- 
term  securities  under  certain  circumstances.  The  preeminent  posi- 
tion of  short-term  and  demand  securities  in  the  structure  of  the  debt 
will  make  for  greater  ease  and  effectiveness  in  debt  management  in 
the  years  to  come.  The  flexibility  which  is  thus  imparted  to  the 
economy  is  likely,  moreover,  to  contribute  to  a  greater  degree  of 
economic  stability  than  would  otherwise  have  existed. 

Interest  on  the  public  debt 

Expenditures.  — Total  expenditures  during  the  year  for  interest  on 
the  public  debt  amounted  to  $2,609  millions,  an  increase  of  $801 
millions  over  expenditures  of  the  previous  year.  As  shown  in  table 
57  on  page  715,  $1,450  millions  consisted  of  mterest  subject  to  the 
Federal  income  tax,  $825  millions  of  interest  subject,  with  minor 
exceptions,  to  the  surtax  only,  and  $27  millions  of  interest  wholly 
exempt  from  the  Federal  income  tax.  In  addition,  interest  paid  on 
special  securities  issued  to  Federal  Government  agencies  and  trust 
funds  which  are  not  taxable  amounted  to  $308  millions.  These 
amounts  compare  with  expenditures  in  the  previous  year  of  $676 
millions  of  taxable,  $857  millions  of  partially  tax-exempt,  and  $38 
millions  of  wholly  tax-exempt  interest,  and  $241  millions  of  interest 
on  special  issues. 

Interest  rate  structure. — Chart  11  on  page  72  compares  the  term 
structure  of  interest  rates  on  United  States  Government  securities  on 
June  30,  1944,  and  on  June  30,  1943.  It  will  be  noted  that  the 
yields  of  taxable  Treasury  securities  rose  to  somewhat  higher  levels 
during  the  fiscal  year  1944,  and  that  the  yields  of  partially  tax-exempt 
Treasury  securities  underwent  little  net  change  for  the  year. 

Interest  rate  structure. — Chart  11  compares  the  term  structure  of 
interest  rates  on  United  States  Government  securities  on  June  30, 
1944,  and  on  June  30,  1943.  It  will  be  noted  that  the  yields  of 
taxable  Treasury  securities  rose  to  somewhat  higher  levels  during  the 
fiscal  year  1944,  and  that  the  yields  of  partially  tax-exempt  Treasury 
securities  underwent  little  net  change  for  the  year. 

Computed  interest  rate. — For  the  fifth  consecutive  year  the  computed 
average  interest  rate  on  the  interest-bearing  debt  has  been  lowered. 
From  2.600  percent  on  June  30,  1939,  the  rate  declined  to  1.979 
percent  on  June  30,  1943,  and  to  1.929  percent,  the  lowest  it  has 
ever  been,  on  June  30,  1944.  The  computed  annual  interest  charge 
on  the  debt,  on  which  this  average  rate  is  based,  increased  from 
$2,679  millions,  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  1943,  to  $3,849  millions 
on  June  30,  1944.  The  reduction  in  the  computed  rate  during  the 
year  again  resulted  in  part  from  the  refunding  of  securities  issued  at

The  Public  Debt  Act  of  1944,  approved  June  9,  1944  (see  exhibit  31

to  an  amount  not  to  exceed  in  the  aggregate  $260  billions  outstanding

SECURITIES  ISSUED   BY   GOVERNMENT   CORPORATIONS  AND 
CREDIT  AGENCIES 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  Treasury  continued  the  pohcy 
announced  in  October  1941  under  which  funds  needed  by  Government 
corporations  and  credit  agencies  are  provided  by  the  Treasuiy  instead 
of  by  the  sale  of  guaranteed  securities  in  the  open  market.  In  addi- 
tion, Treasury  facilities  continued  to  be  extended  for  servicing  their 
obligations.  The  provisions  of  law  authorizing  agencies  to  issue 
securities  guaranteed  by  the  United  States  have  placed  certain  limits 
with  respect  to  the  total  amounts  that  can  be  issued.  During  the 
year,  however,  legislation  was  enacted  which  extended  the  power  of 
both  the  Federal  Housing  Administration  and  the  Reconstruction 
Finance  Corporation  to  issue  guaranteed  obligations. 

As  a  result  of  the  Treasury's  policy  of  providing  funds  required 
by  certain  Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies,  there  was  a 
considerable  decrease  in  the  contingent  liabilities  of  the  Government 
on  account  of  outstanding  market  issues  of  their  obligations  which  are 
guaranteed  as  to  principal  and  interest,  and  an  appreciable  increase 
in  the  amount  of  securities  of  such  corporations  and  agencies  held 
directly  by  the  Treasury.  No  issues  of  guaranteed  obligations  were 
sold  in  the  open  market  during  the  year.     The  Commodity  Credit 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY

Coi'poration,  however,  following  approval  by  the  Treasury,  borrowed 
from  commercial  banks  to  finance  certain  commodity  pm-chase  pro- 
grams which  are  handled  by  such  banks  for  account  of  the  Corporation. 
The  Federal  Housing  Administration  also  continued  to  issue  deben- 
tures in  accordance  with  the  terms  of  its  insurance  contracts.  Further, 
the  ownership  of  certain  obligations  issued  by  the  Reconstruction 
Finance  Corporation  was  transferred  from  the  Treasury  to  various 
other  Government  corporations  in  order  to  provide  those  corporations 
with  a  temporary  medium  for  investing  their  idle  balances. 

Securities  of  Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies  held 
directly  by  the  Treasury  and  reflected  in  the  public  debt  increased 
from  $7,535  millions  as  of  June  30,  1943,  to  $10,717  millions  as  of 
June  30,  1944.  The  contingent  liabilities  of  the  Government  on 
account  of  outstanding  unmatured  obligations  in  the  hands  of  the 
public  decreased  from  $4,092  millions  on  June  30,  1943,  to  $1,659 
millions  on  June  30,  1944.  A  detailed  statement  of  the  securities 
held  by  the  public  and  those  held  by  the  Treasury  as  of  June  30,  1944, 
will  be  found  in  table  58  and  footnote  1  on  page  718.  The  net  changes 
during  the  year  are  shown  in  the  table  that  follows.

76        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Redemptions  of  guaranteed  obligations  were  accomplished  through 
Treasury  facilities  as  follows:  Federal  Public  Housing  Authority 
1%  percent  Series  B  notes  and  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation 
1}^  percent  Series  V  notes  were  redeemed  in  cash  by  the  issuing  agencies 
which  obtained  the  necessary  funds  by  selling  other  issues  to  the 
Treasury.  Federal  Farm  Mortgage  Corporation  bonds  and  Home 
Owners'  Loan  Corporation  bonds  called  for  redemption  during  the 
year,  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  1  percent  notes  of  Series  W, 
and  three  Treasury  issues  which  were  due  or  callable  between  March 
15  and  June  15,  1944,  were  refunded  on  March  15,  1944,  in  a  single 
large-scale  operation  in  which  thi'ee  Treasury  issues  were  offered  in 
exchange.     Details  of  this  operation  are  given  on  pages  63-65. 

Federal  Housing  Administration  debentures  of  all  types  outstanding 
on  June  30,  1943,  amounted  to  $23,474,886,  issues  during  the  year 
totalled  $2,678,150,  and  redemptions  aggregated  $2,603,000,  making 
$23,550,036  outstanding  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  1944,  or  a  net  increase 
of  $75,150.  The  debentures  were  redeemed  pursuant  to  calls  of  the 
Federal  Housing  Commissioner,  and  instructions  issued  by  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury  on  September  28,  1942,  March  27,  1943,  and 
September  30,  1943. 

In  addition,  pursuant  to  call  of  the  Federal  Housing  Commissioner, 
the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  issued  instructions  on  March  30,  1944, 
for  the  partial  redemption  of  mutual  mortgage  insurance  fund  deben- 
tures, payable  July  1,  1944.  These  covered  debentures  of  mutual 
mortgage  insurance  fund  Series  B,  eleventh  call,  and  housing  insurance 
fund  Series  E,  second  call,  in  amounts  of  $138,750  and  $27,000, 
respectively. 

Copies  of  the  instructions  issued'during  the  fiscal  year  1944  may  be 
found  as  exhibits  beginning  on  page  345,  and  those  issued  in  the  fiscal 
year  1943  in  the  annual  report  for  that  year.  The  transactions  for 
which  Treasury  facilities  were  used  to  service  maturities  and  redemp- 
tions of  guaranteed  market  securities  during  the  year  are  shown  in 
the  table  on  page  722. 

The  provisions  of  law  authorizing  agencies  to  issue  obligations 
guaranteed  by  the  United  States  have  placed  certain  limits  with 
respect  to  the  total  amounts  that  can  be  issued.  This  legislation  with 
respect  to  the  limitations  established  may  be  placed  in  tlii-ee  groups 
as  follows: 

(1)  Definite  limitation.- — Provisions  stating  a  specific  amount  of 
obligations  which  may  be  (a)  issued,  or  (b)  issued  and  outstanding 
at  any  specified  time.  Wlien  the  legislative  authority  provides  only 
for  the  issue  of  obligations,  the  agency  may  issue  obligations  in  a 
definite  amount,  but  after  they  have  been  retired  may  not  issue  new 
obligations  to  replace  them.  Examples  of  this  limitation  on  the  issu- 
ance of  obligations  are  those  of  such  agencies  as  the  Home  Owners' 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        77 

Loan  Corporation  and  the  Federal  Public  Housing  Authority.  Under 
the  second  provision,  the  agency  may  reissue  obligations  provided  the 
total  amount  outstanding  does  not  exceed  the  authorized  limit. 
Such  limitation  is  imposed  on  the  issuance  of  obligations  by  the 
Federal  Farm  Mortgage  Corporation. 

(2)  Indirect  limitation. — Provisions  not  stating  a  specific  amount 
of  obligations  that  may  be  issued  and  outstanding  at  any  time,  but 
the  amount  issued  and  outstanding  is  contingent  upon  specific  limiting 
factors.  As  a  result  there  is  an  indhect  limit  upon  the  amount  which 
may  be  issued  and  outstanding  at  any  one  time.  The  issuance  of 
obligations  by  the  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation,  in  connection 
with  advances  to  the  Federal  Housing  Commissioner  for  the  payment 
of  losses  on  renovation  and  modernization  loans,  comes  within  this 
category. 

(3)  No  specific  limitation. — Provisions  not  stating  a  specific  amount 
of  obligations  which  may  be  issued  or  issued  and  outstanding  at  any 
one  time,  but  the  amount  is  contingent  upon  other  specific  factors, 
the  amount  of  such  factors  also  being  indefinite.  The  authority 
granted  the  Reconstruction  Finance  Corporation  to  subscribe  to 
preferred  stock  in  national  banks,  State  banks,  or  trust  companies  is 
in  this  class. 

Provisions  of  two  laws  enacted  diu-ing  the  year  extended  the  power 
of  the  Federal  Housing  ^Administration  to  issue  guaranteed  obligations. 
Under  the  act  of  October  15,  1943  (Public  Law  159),  and  the  act  of 
June  30,  1944  (Pubhc  Law  392),  the  authority  of  the  Federal  Housing 
Administration  to  insure  the  principal  amount  of  mortgages  under 
Title  VI  of  the  National  Housing  Act,  as  amended,  was  increased 
by  $400  milhons  and  $100  milHons,  respectively.  The  aggregate 
amount  of  principal  obligations  of  all  mortgages  insured  by  the 
Federal  Housing  Administration  is  now  limited  to  $5,700  millions, 
which  may  be  increased  by  an  amount  not  exceeding  $1,000  millions 
with  the  approval  of  the  President.  In  addition,  the  Commissioner 
is  authorized  to  incur  total  liabilities  not  exceeding  $165  millions 
under  Title  I  of  the  National  Housing  Act,  as  amended,  for  insured 
renovation  and  modernization  loans. 

The  legislation  increasing  the  power  of  the  Reconstruction  Finance 
Corporation  to  issue  guaranteed  obligations  during  the  year  included 
the  acts  of  July  12,  1943  (Public  Law  129),  and  December  23,  1943 
(Public  Law  216).  As  a  result  of  this  legislation  and  transactions 
under  previously  enacted  legislation,  the  borrowing  power  of  the 
Corporation  was  changed.  The  amount  of  obligations  which  it  was 
authorized  to  issue  as  of  June  30,  1944,  amounted  to  $17,003  millions, 
including  the  amounts  outstanding  under  indefinite  authorizations, 
a  net  decrease  of  $105  millions  since  June  30,  1943.  The  net  decrease 
resulted  from  the  changes  shown  in  the  table  which  follows.  In  this 
connection,  it  may  be  pointed  out  that  in  the  table  the  only  items

REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY  OF   THE  TREASURY  79 

SOURCES  OF  FUNDS  FOR  FEDERAL  BORROWING » 

An  analysis  of  the  funds  which  the  Federal  Government  may  tap 
in  financing  the  war  rests  primarily  on  an  analysis  of  production, 
income,  and  savings  in  the  economy.  At  the  same  time  that  produc- 
tion is  turning  out  physical  goods  and  services  income  is  being  created. 
When  a  tank  is  built  and  sold  to  the  Army,  for  example,  the  producer 
pays  wages  to  his  workers  and  dividends  to  stockholders;  he  pays 
other  producers  for  the  raw  materials  that  they  provide  and  he  sets 
aside  part  of  the  income  to  cover  depreciation  and  to  pay  his  taxes. 
All  of  the  dollars  of  income,  regardless  of  how  they  are  distributed, 
are  equal  in  the  aggregate  to  the  value  of  total  production  in  the 
economy  as  a  whole. 

Under  present  wartime  conditions,  the  Federal  Government  is  buy- 
ing a  larger  share  of  this  production  than  it  is  receiving  in  taxes  from 
the  income  generated.  On  the  other  hand,  the  rest  of  the  economy — 
individuals  and  corporations  (and  State  and  local  governments) — 
has  more  income  left  after  Federal  taxes  than  the  value  of  the  goods 
and  services  available  for  purchase  at  the  present  price  level.  It 
is  this  surplus  of  income  which  the  Government  must  try  to  reach 
through  its  borrowing  program. 

The  first  of  three  sections  which  follow  presents  an  analysis  of  the 
distribution  and  uses  of  the  gross  income  generated  by  production 
during  the  fiscal  years  1943  and  1944.  In  the  second  section  new 
liquid  savings  during  these  two  years  are  studied  with  particular 
reference  to  the  amounts  invested  in  Federal  securities.^  This  incor- 
porates an  analysis  of  the  gross  purchases  of  Federal  securities  by 
investor  classes,  net  liquidations  through  redemptions,  cash  maturities, 
and  market  sales,  and  the  resulting  net  absorption  of  Federal  securities. 
In  this  analysis  net  new  investments  in  Federal  securities  are  com- 
pared with  net  new  liquid  savings  available.  Of  course,  securities 
are  absorbed  by  investing  old  accumulations  of  funds  as  well  as  by 
drawing  on  new  liquid  savings,  but  it  is  obviously  impossible  to  make 
this  distinction  statistically. 

The  third  section  compares  the  estimates  of  ownership  of  Federal 
securities  by  investor  classes  as  of  June  30,  1940-1944,  and  discusses 
the  changes  in  ownership  for  each  of  the  four  years. 

Analysis  of  gross  income  flow 

Since  1940  the  annual  value  of  goods  and  services  produced  in  this 
country  has  more  than  doubled,  with  increased  war  production  ao- 


•  The  statistics  available  for  the  present  analysis  are  taken  from  various  sources  and  are  subject  to  certain 
technical  qualifications  as  noted  in  footnotes.  The  Department  of  Commerce,  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Commission,  and  the  Federal  Reserve  System  have  conducted  studies  which,  together  with  available 
Treasury  Department  data,  fill  in  the  broad  outlines  even  though  certain  details  are  lacking.  In  the  pres- 
ent analysis,  figures  are  given  for  the  two  fiscal  years  1943  and  1944.  The  1943  figures  have  been  revised 
from  those  presented  in  this  report  last  year. 

2  The  term  "Federal  securities"  as  used  here  comprises  all  interest-bearing  public  debt  and  guaranteed 
securities  of  the  United  States  Government.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


counting  for  most  of  the  gain.  The  production  of  this  unprecedented 
amount  of  goods  and  services,  plus  minor  governmental  payments  for 
relief  and  pensions,  has,  of  course,  resulted  in  the  creation  of  an  equally 
unprecedented  amount  of  income.  This  gross  income  flow  amounted 
to  $197  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

As  the  gross  income  flow  is  distributed  it  is  received  initially  either 
by  individuals  or  corporations.  The  term  "individuals"  is  used 
throughout  this  section  to  include  unincorporated  business,  partner- 
ships, and  personal  trust  accounts.  Individuals  received  $156  billions, 
or  over  tliree-quarters  of  the  total  gross  income  flow  in  the  fiscal  year 
1944.  Of  this  total,  wages  and  salaries  amounted  to  $111  billions,  or 
over  two-thirds  of  individual  income. 

The  remainder  of  the  gross  income  flow  Is  accounted  for  by  corpo- 
ration items,  comprising  (1)  current  net  earnings  before  direct  taxes 
on  corporations,  but  after  dividends  paid  to  individuals,  (2)  current 
allowances  for  business  reserves  for  depreciation,  depletion,  etc.,  and 
(3)  the  amount  of  indirect  taxes,  such  as  sales  taxes,  which  are  included 
because  corporations  are  presumed  to  be  acting  as  collectors  on  behalf  of 
the  Government.  The  sum  of  these  three  corporate  items — amount- 
ing to  $41  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944 — represents  that  part  of  the 
gross  income  flow  assigned  to  corporations  rather  than  to  individuals. 

Figures  for  the  gross  income  flow  are  summarized  in  the  following 
table.

Part  of  the  gross  income  flow  distributed  to  individuals  and  corpo- 
rations is  transferred  to  government  in  the  form  of  taxes,  as  shown  in 
the  table  below.  In  the  fiscal  year  1944,  individuals  paid  $22  billions 
in  direct  taxes  (prmcipally  net  income  taxes)  while  corporations  paid 
$15  billions  in  direct  taxes  (largely  net  income  and  excess  profits  taxes), 
and  $13  billions  of  indirect  taxes  were  collected  through  business.

'  These  figures  differ  from  figures  shown  elsewhere  in  this  report  on  Federal  net  budgetary  receipts  ($22 
billions  in  1943  and  $44  billions  in  1944)  by  excluding  those  receipts  which  do  not  represent  taxes  paid  from 
tiie  current  flow  of  income,  such  as  miscellaneous  receipts  arising  from  the  renegotiation  of  war  contracts  for 
prior  years,  and  by  iucludine  amounts  of  Federal  individual  income  taxes  withheld  by  employers  which 
have  not  yet  been  paid  to  the  Government. 

2  Includes  minor  amounts  of  employment  taxes  received  by  the  Federal  Government  which  are  not  trans- 
ferred to  social  insurance  trust  funds. 

3  Indirect  taxes— such  as  sales  taxes— are  collected  through  business  and  are  here  all  assigned  to  corpora- 
tions since  no  breakdown  is  feasible  between  corporations  and  tmincorporated  business. 

Taxes,  of  course,  represent  merely  a  transfer  of  part  of  the  gross 
income  flow  from  one  segment  of  the  economy  to  another.  The  gross 
income  flow  before  taxes  is  divided  only  between  individuals  and  cor- 
porations, while  after  taxes  are  allowed  for  it  is  divided  between 
individuals,  corporations,  State  and  local  governments, 
Federal  Government.* 

For  each  of  the  four  categories  of  income  recipients,  a 
analysis  may  be  made  of  spendings  and  savings.  Under 
conditions  one  recipient  group — the  Federal  Government — spends 
considerably  more  than  its  income  from  taxes,  while  the  other  three 
recipient  groups  spend  less  than  the  amount  of  their  disposable  income 
and  thus  have  liquid  savings  accumulating.  The  sum  of  these  liquid 
savings  is  equal  to  the  amount  of  the  excess  spendings,  or  deficit,  of 
the  Federal  Government,  as  will  be  noted  in  the  following  table.

fused with  "disposable  income  of  individuals"  as  used  in  a  narrower  sense  by  the  Department  of  Commerce 
as  income  payments  to  individuals  less  personal  taxes  and  nontax  payments.

1  For  convenience,  income  after  taxes  is  referred  to  as  "disposable  income";  this  term  should  not  be  con- 
fused with  "disposable  income  of  individuals"  as  used  in  a  narrower  sense  by  the  Department  of  Com- 
merce as  income  payments  to  individuals  less  personal  taxes  and  nontax  payments. 

2  Comprises  spendings  for  purchases  of  goods  and  services  and  for  governmental  relief  and  pensions. 

3  The  figures  used  for  Federal  spendings  differ  slightly  from  those  used  elsewhere  in  this  report  for  Federal 
budgetary  expenditures  ($78  billions  in  1943  and  $94  billions  ill  1944).  As  used  here,  they  include  the  net 
outlays  of  Government  corporations  and  exclude  expenditures,  such  as  for  purchases  of  existing  assets,  which 
do  not  enter  into  the  flow  of  current  income. 

<  Difl'ers  from  Federal  net  budgetary  deficit  as  used  elsewhere  in  this  report  ($'6  billions  in  1943  and  $50 
billions  in  1944)  by  the  net  adjustments  made  to  place  Federal  expenditures  and  receipts  on  the  basis  of  flow 
of  current  income  and  production. 

It  will  be  noted  that  in  ^the  fiscal  year  1944  individuals  spent  $95 
billions  and  saved  $39  billions  out  of  disposable  income  of  $134 
billions.  Almost  all  of  the  expenditures  consisted  of  purchases  of 
consumers'  goods  and  services,  but  there  were  minor  amounts  of 
purchases  of  plant  and  equipment  and  invento'ies  by  unincorporated 
business  and  small  amounts  of  residential  housing  also  purchased  by 
individuals.  In  the  fiscal  year  1943  individuals  spent  $88  billions 
and  saved  $38  billions  from  $126  billions  of  disposable  income. 

Corporations  had  $12  billions  of  disposable  income  in  the  fiscal 
year  1944.  Corporate  spendings  for  capital  assets  amounted  to  only 
$1  billion  of  this  because  of  the  difficulty  of  undertaking  new  private 
construction,  purchases  of  new  equipment,  or  replenislmient  of  de- 
clinmg  inventories.  Accordingly,  corporate  liquid  savings  including, 
of  course,  unspent  reserves  aggregated  $11  billions.  In  the  fiscal 
year  1943  corporate  disposable  income  was  somewhat  higher,  and 
also  liquid  savings,  because  in  a  period  of  rising  income,  tax  payments 
lag  behind  the  incurrence  of  tax  liabilities. 

State  and  local  governments  are  currently  collecting  more  rev- 
enue than  they  need  to  cover  their  current  expenditures.  As  a 
result,  in  each  of  the  last  two  fiscal  years  they  had  current  surpluses 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        83 

of  $2  billions.  In  each  year  income  aggregated  $10  billions  for  these 
governmental  units  while  spendings  amounted  to  $8  billions.  The 
surpluses  resulted  from  the  fact  that  tax  collections  have  been  at  un- 
usually high  levels  due  to  the  extraordinary  expansion  of  business 
activity  while  spendings  have  been  curtailed  by  the  reduction  in  con- 
struction programs,  particularly  for  new  highways. 

Individuals,  corporations,  and  State  and  local  governments — con- 
stituting all  of  the  economy  except  the  Federal  Government — had 
disposable  income  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  aggregating  $156  billions; 
they  spent  only  $104  billions,  leaving  liquid  savings  of  $52  billions. 
The  Federal  Government,  on  the  other  hand,  had  only  $41  billions 
of  disposable  income  whereas  its  spendings  amounted  to  $93  billions. 
This  left  a  deficit  of  $52  billions,  exactly  balancing  the  liquid  savings 
of  the  rest  of  the  economy. 

A  major  objective  of  war  financing  is  to  draw  on  these  liquid  savings 
as  far  as  possible  to  cover  the  Federal  deficit.  To  the  extent  that 
this  is  not  done,  individuals,  corporations,  and  State  and  local  gov- 
ernments as  a  group  will  be  saving  in  the  form  of  currency  and  check- 
ing accounts  and  the  Federal  Government  will  be  borrowing  equivalent 
amounts  from  banks.  A  large  increase  in  the  supply  of  money,  both 
circulating  media  and  checking  accounts,  w^as  undoubtedly  necessary 
in  connection  with  the  huge  increase  in  business  which  has  occurred 
during  the  war  period.  Every  effort  should  be  made  to  keep  the 
expansion  in  the  monetary  supply  at  the  lowest  possible  level,  how- 
ever, in  order  to  lessen  inflationary  pressures.  The  following  para- 
graphs analyze  the  progress  made  in  absorbing  funds  through  the  sale 
of  Federal  securities  in  the  last  two  fiscal  years. 

Liquid  savings  and  investment  in  Federal  securities 

First  of  all,  it  should  be  noted  that  a  part  of  the  liquid  savings  of 
any  given  recipient  group  may  be  transferred  in  effect  to  another 
group  which  undertakes  the  actual  investment  of  the  funds  thus 
received.  For  example,  individuals'  savings  in  the  form  of  life  insur- 
ance are  invested  by  the  life  insurance  companies.  Similarly,  the 
process  of  debt  repayment  transfers  funds  from  one  group  of  investors 
to  another.  Also,  the  placing  of  funds  in  a  mutual  savings  bank  or 
in  a  savings  account  in  a  commercial  bank  means  that  these  institu- 
tions, rather  than  the  original  savers,  are  responsible  for  the  ultimate 
decisions  relating  to  the  investment  of  such  funds. 

It  is  necessary  to  make  allowances  for  such  transfers  of  funds  in 
analyzing  liquid  savings  available  for  net  investment  in  Federal 
securities  and  the  progress  made  in  absorbing  these  funds.  In  the 
present  analysis  all  of  the  transfers  are  followed  through,  and  available 
savings  are  classified  as  between  net  investment  in  Federal  securities

and  amounts  placed  in  currency  and  checking  accounts.^  Besides 
individuals,  corpor-ations,  and  State  and  local  governments,  three 
financial  groups  arc  analyzed,  namely.  Federal  agencies  and  trust 
funds,  insurance  companies,  and  mutual  savings  banks.  Following 
this,  data  are  presented  for  commercial  banks  and  Federal  Reserve 
Banks. 

1.  Individuals. — Liquid  savings  of  individuals  amounted  to  $39 
billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  was  pointed  out  previously.  The 
table  below  shows  that  $15  billions  of  these  savings  were  transferred  to 
other  recipient  groups  in  the  form  of  private  insurance,  social  insur- 
ance, savings  accounts,  and  other  items,  including  debt  repayment. 
This  left  $24  billions  of  net  savings  available.  Of  this  total,  individ- 
uals invested  $15  billions  in  Federal  securities  during  the  fiscal  year 
and  increased  their  holdings  of  currency  and  checking  accounts  by 
about  $9  billions.

ment for  discrepancies  in  reconciling  detail. 


1  Technically,  savings  made  in  the  form  of  currency  and  checking  accounts  also  represent  a  transfer  of 
funds  from  one  investor  group  to  another.  Savings  in  the  form  of  checking  accounts  require  the  corollary 
purchase  of  Federal  securities  by  commercial  banks,  wtiile  savings  in  currency  require,  with  minor  excep- 
tions, the  purchase  of  Federal  securities  by  Federal  Reserve  Banks.  These  items  are  not  treated  here  as 
transfers  between  investor  groups,  because  they  represent  the  particular  kinds  of  savings  which  the  war 
financing  program  is  intended  to  minimize.  Treating  them  as  transfers  would  eliminate  them  from  the  base 
in  measuring  the  progress  made  in  war  financing. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        85 

The  table  indicates  that  individuals'  net  absorption  of  Federal 
securities  was  equivalent  to  more  than  60  percent  of  net  savings 
available  from  the  current  income  flow  in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  This 
compares  with  slightly  less  than  50  percent  in  the  preceding  fiscal  year. 
It  should  be  borne  in  mind,  however,  that  there  were  two  complete  war 
loans  and  a  major  part  of  a  third  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  compared 
with  two  loans  in  the  preceding  year. 

How  should  these  ratios  be  interpreted  as  a  measure  of  success  in 
absorbing  the  funds  of  individuals  and  unincorporated  business?  A 
number  of  reasons  make  it  clear  that  the  ratio  should  be  expected  to  be 
less  than  100  percent,  but  it  is  virtually  impossible  to  set  any  precise 
figure  as  an  optimum.  First  of  all,  as  has  already  been  noted  briefly, 
the  increase  in  business  activity  brought  about  by  the  war  has  required 
a  much  higher  level  of  money  in  the  form  of  currency  and  checking- 
accounts  than  previously.  The  gross  income  flow  has  more  than 
doubled  over  the  period,  and  more  money  for  current  operations  is 
needed  all  along  the  line.  Second,  many  small  unincorporated  busi- 
nesses have  experienced  unprecedented  prosperity  during  the  war 
and  have  accumulated  large  funds  out  of  current  operations.  Ap- 
parently, a  large  volume  of  these  funds  has  been  placed  in  checking 
accounts  and  probably  also  a  significant  amount  in  currency.  Finally, 
many  individuals  and  unincorporated  businesses  are  undoubtedly 
accumulating  large  amounts  in  checking  accounts  and  currency 
simply  because  they  feel  that  they  are  already  doing  their  share  in 
buying  Federal  securities. 

AU  of  these  factors  behind  savings  in  currency  and  checking  ac- 
counts appear  to  be  matters  of  savings  preference  or  business  practice 
rather  than  a  temporary  building  up  of  cash  for  potential  spending 
at  the  first  opportunity.  To  the  extent  that  these  factors  are  opera- 
tive, the  need  for  immobilizing  excess  funds  is  lessened.  On  the 
other  hand,  some  of  the  increase  in  currency  represents  undesirable 
tendencies  insofar  as  it  is  being  held  for  spending  opportunities  or 
because  of  illegal  transactions.  It  is  obviously  impossible  to  make 
statistical  allowances  for  these  various  factors. 

The  lower  part  of  the  table  on  mdividuals  analyzes  the  amounts 
they  are  estimated  to  have  invested  in  Federal  securities.  Gross 
purchases  of  securities  from  the  Treasury  are  listed  first,  divided 
between  purchases  made  in  war  loans  and  other  purchases  from  the 
Treasury.'  Allowance  is  then  made  for  liquidations  of  securities 
through  redemptions,  cash  maturities,  and  sales  in  the  market  to  other 
investors.  The  major  part  of  mdividuals"  purchases  from  the 
Treasury  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  occurred  durmg  war  loans. 


'  Throughout  this  series  of  tables,  Treasury  bills  and  special  issues  to  Federal  agencies  and  trust  funds  are 
included  as  part  of  gross  purchases  from  the  Treasury  on  the  basis  of  net  increases  in  amounts  outstanding.

2.  Corporations. — This  category  includes  all  corporations  other  than 
banks  and  insurance  companies,  and  also  includes  associations  and 
eleemosynary  institutions.  The  table  below  shows  the  liquid  savings 
of  corporations  and  their  net  investment  in  Federal  securities.  It  is 
estimated  that  new  liquid  savings  of  corporations  decreased  from  $15 
billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943  to  $11  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1944. 
In  the  former  year  corporations  invested  about  two-thirds  of  their  net 
savings  available  m  Federal  securities  but  in  the  fiscal  year  1944 
practically  all  of  these  savings  were  so  invested.

3.  State  and  local  governments. — It  has  previously  been  noted  that 
liquid  savings  of  State  and  local  governments  have  been  significant 
during  the  war  period  as  the  result  of  a  surplus  of  current  revenues 
over  expenditures.  As  shown  in  the  table  below,  these  savings  aggre- 
gated $2  billions  in  each  of  the  fiscal  years  1943  and  1944.  Part  of 
these  liquid  savings  was  used  each  year  to  reduce  the  amount  of 
outstanding  State  and  local  debt.  Table  102  of  this  report  shows 
that  State  and  local  securities  outstanding  (other  than  in  State  and 
local  sinking,  trust,  and  investment  funds)  declined  by  about  a 
billion  and  a  half  dollars  during  the  two  years  ended  June  30,  1944. 
Practically  aU  of  the  remaining  savings  was  invested  in  Federal 
securities.

funds  receive  liquid  savings  as  transfers  from  other  investors,  particu- 
larly individuals,  through  increases  in  postal  savings  deposits  and  in 
social  insurance  reserves,  and  through  repayment  of  loans  to  Govern- 
ment corporations.  Transfers  of  this  kind  provided  Federal  agencies 
and  trust  funds  with  $4  billions  in  the  fiscal  year  1943  and  $5  billions 
in  the  fiscal  year  1944.  As  shown  in  the  table  below  the  funds  re- 
ceived by  Federal  agencies  and  trust  funds  are  fully  absorbed  by  their 
net  investment  in  Federal  securities,  except  for  insignificant  varia- 
tions in  their  currency  and  checking  accounts.

3  Negative  figure  signifies  excess  of  market  purchases  over  liquidations  through  redemptions  and  cash

The  table  shows  that  nonbank  investors  as  a  group  absorbed  $38 
billions  of  Federal  securities  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  over  $5  billions 
more  than  in  the  preceding  year.  Gross  purchases  from  the  Treasury 
by  nonbank  investors  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  consisted  of  $50  billions 
of  purchases  in  war  loans,  and  $15  billions  of  other  purchases,  or  $64 
billions  in  all.  Liquidations  of  Federal  securities  by  nonbank  in- 
vestors aggregated  $27  billions,  including  cash  maturities  of  market- 
able issues,  redemptions  of  savings  bonds  and  savings  notes,  and  sales 
in  the  market.  Commercial  banks  and  Federal  Reserve  Banks  ab- 
sorbed $24  billions  of  Federal  securities  during  the  fiscal  year  1944, 
partly  purchased  directly  from  the  Treasury  and  partly  acquired  in 
the  market.  This  bank  absorption  of  $24  billions  was  39  percent 
of  net  Federal  borrowing  as  compared  with  49  percent  in  the  fiscal 
year  1943.  A  further  analysis  of  net  absorption  of  Federal  securities 
is  shown  in  the  following  section.

During  the  period  covered  in  the  table  the  amount  of  Federal  secur- 
ities outstandmg  increased  from  $48  billions  to  $201  billions.  Of  the 
$201  billions,  nonbank  investor  classes  owned  an  estimated  $118 
billions  and  commercial  and  Federal  Reserve  Banks  accounted  for  $83 
billions.  Commercial  banks  were  the  largest  holders  of  Federal 
securities  in  June  1944,  accounting  for  $68  billions  of  the  total  amount 
outstanding.  Individuals  were  second  with  $45  billions  and  corpora- 
tions (including  associations,  etc.)  accounted  for  $26  billions.  The 
latter  figure  excludes  $17  billions  of  securities  held  by  insurance 
companies  and  $7  billions  held  by  mutual  savings  banks. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


91 


Total  securities  outstanding  on  June  30,  1944,  were  four  times  as 
great  as  four  years  previously.  Corporations'  holdings  were  ten  times 
as  large  and  individuals'  holdings  almost  five  times  as  large  at  the  end 
of  the  fiscal  year  1944  as  they  were  June  30,  1940.  Despite  the  large 
increase  in  securities  outstanding,  nonbank  investors  continued  to 
hold  about  60  percent  of  the  total. 

The  net  absorption  of  Federal  securities  by  the  various  investor 
classes  during  the  last  four  fiscal  years  is  summarized  in  the  following 
table.

As  indicated  in  the  table,  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  nonbank  investors 
increased  their  absorption  of  Federal  securities  by  more  than  $5  bil- 
lions over  the  preceding  year  although  total  borrowing  actually  de- 
clined slightly.  Accordingly,  net  borrowing  from  banks  decreased 
significantly  during  the  fiscal  year.  As  noted  previously,  banks 
provided  for  39  percent  of  total  borrowing  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  as 
compared  with  49  percent  in  the  fiscal  year  1943.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


The  improvement  in  the  effectiveness  of  the  borrowing  program 
with  respect  to  sales  to  nonbank  investors  is  even  more  striking  when 
allowance  is  made  for  the  fact  that  a  significant  portion  of  the  borrow- 
ing from  banks  represented  fmids  used  to  build  up  the  Federal  General 
Fund  balance  rather  than  to  cover  Federal  expenditures.  This  is 
particularly  important  from  the  point  of  view  of  inflation  control, 
since  funds  borrowed  from  the  banking  system  to  increase  the  General 
Fund  balance  are  immobilized  until  such  time  as  they  may  be  drawn 
on  for  expenditures.  In  the  last  four  fiscal  years  total  borrowing 
from  banks  aggregated  $65  billions,  but  diu'ing  the  same  period  the 
General  Fund  balance  increased  by  $18  billions.  Thus,  funds  bor- 
rowed from  banks  and  expended  aggregated  $46  billions  during  the 
period.  Federal  expenditures  which  were  financed  by  increases  in 
the  interest-bearing  debt  during  these  four  years  amounted  to  $135 
billions.  Nonbank  investors  purchased  enough  Federal  securities  to 
cover  almost  two-thii*ds  of  these  expenditures,  with  bank  investors 
accounting  for  the  remaining  one-third.  As  indicated  previously, 
a  large  part  of  this  bank  borrowing  was  necessary  to  provide  extra 
money  (currency  and  checking  accounts)  to  accompany  the  large 
increase  in  business  activity.  The  table  below  presents  the  figures 
for  each  of  the  last  four  fiscal  yesars.

GENERAL  FUND 

The  General  Fund  includes  all  moiLeys  of  the  Government  deposited 
with  and  held  by  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States,  including  the 
moneys  covered  into  the  Treasury  which  can  be  withdrawn  only  in 
pursuance  of  an  appropriation  by  Congress.  Every  receipt  of  the 
Treasury,  from  whatever  source,  and  every  expenditure,  of  whatever 
nature,  affect  either  the  assets  or  liabilities,  or  both,  of  the  General 
Fund  shown  in  the  daily  statement  of  the  Treasury.  The  total  amount 
of  the  assets  over  and  above  the  total  amount  of  the  liabilities  repre- 
sents the  balance  in  the  General  Fund  available  to  meet  Government 
expenditures  for  general,  special,  and  trust  accounts,  etc. 

The  assets  in  the  General  Fund  consist  of  gold,  silver,  currency, 
com,  unclassified  collection  items,  etc.,  and  deposits,  to  the  credit  of 
the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  and  other  Government  officers,  in 
Federal  Reserve  Banks,  special  depositaries  account  of  sales  of  Govern- 
ment securities,  national  and  other  bank  depositaries,  foreign  deposi- 
taries, and  the  treasury  of  the  Philippine  Islands. 

The  liabilities  of  the  General  Fund  consist  of  outstanding  Treasurer's 
checks,  deposits  of  certain  Government  officers  composed  of  balances 
to  the  credit  of  the  Post  Office  Department,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
the  Postal  Savings  System,  and  postmasters,  clerks  of  courts,  dis- 
bursing officers,  etc.,  and  uncollected  items,  exchanges,  etc. 

The  balance  in  the  General  Fund  is  classified  according  to  increment 
on  gold,  seigniorage,  and  working  balance. 

The  net  change  in  the  balance  of  the  General  Fund  from  the  begin- 
ning to  the  close  of  the  fiscal  year  is  accounted  for  as  follows :

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        95 

Proprietary  interest  in    Government  corporations   and  credit  agencies 

In  order  to  reflect  the  amount  of  the  Government's  interest  in 
Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies,  the  Treasury  compiles 
from  reports  received  from  such  agencies  a  "Combined  Statement  of 
Assets  and  Liabilities  of  Government  Corporations  and  Credit  Agen- 
cies of  the  United  States,"  which  is  pubUshed  in  the  daily  Treasury 
statement.  (See  page  148.)  This  statement  shows  the  amount  and 
classification  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  various  agencies,  the 
privately  owned  proprietary  interest  in  such  agencies,  and  the  pro- 
prietary interest  of  the  United  States.  The  statement  as  of  June  30, 
1944,  appears  as  table  91  beginning  on  page  758,  and  a  summary 
table  of  the  Government's  proprietary  interest  in  such  agencies  as 
of  June  30,  1933  through  1944,  appears  as  table  92  on  page  768  of 
this  report. 

MONETARY  DEVELOPMENTS 

International  monetary  cooperation 

Stabilization  agreements . — Through  the  renewal  of  expirmg  stabiliza- 
tion agreements  and  through  operations  conducted  under  the  existing 
stabilization  and  monetary  agreements,  the  Treasury  continued,  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944,  its  established  policy  of  cooperation  with  friendly 
foreign  governments  in  the  stabilization  of  their  currencies. 

On  July  1,  1943,  the  stabilization  agTeement  between  the  United 
States  and  Ecuador,  originally  entered  into  on  February  27,  1942,  was 
extended  for  one  year  through  June  30,  1944.  Under  this  agreement, 
the  United  States  stabilization  fund  undertook  to  purchase  Ecuadoran 
sucres  up  to  an  amount  of  $5  millions  for  the  purpose  of  stabilizing  the 
United  States  dollar-Ecuadoran  sucre  exchange  rate.  At  the  close  of 
the  fiscal  year,  discussions  looking  to  the  further  extension  of  this 
agreement  had  been  initiated. 

The  stabilization  agreement  between  the  United  States  and  Iceland, 
signed  May  5,  1942,  under  which  the  United  States  stabilization  fund 
undertook  to  purchase  Icelandic  kronur  up  to  the  amount  of  $2 
millions  for  the  purpose  of  stabilizing  the  United  States  dollar-Icelan- 
dic krona  exchange  rate  was  extended  for  one  year  from  July  1,  1943, 
through  June  30,  1944. 

The  agreement  of  September  26,  1942,  between  the  United  States 
and  Liberia  was  intended  to  facilitate  the  conversion  of  the  Liberian 
currency  system  from  a  British  coin  basis  to  a  United  States  dollar 
basis.  Prior  to  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  purpose  of  the  opera- 
tions under  this  agreement  had  been  achieved  and  by  mutual  consent 
the  agreement  was  allowed  to  lapse  on  June  30,  1944.  At  that  date, 
under  an  arrangement  with  the  British  Government,  the  British  coins 


96        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

acquired  by  the  United  States  stabilization  fund  in  accordance  with 
the  Liberian  agreement  were  in  process  of  being  sold  to  the  British 
Government  for  dollars  as  expeditiously  as  transport  facilities  per- 
mitted the  delivery  of  the  British  coins. 

The  stabilization  agreement  between  the  United  States  and  Brazil, 
originally  entered  into  on  July  15,  1937,  for  a  live-year  period  and 
subsequently  amended  and  extended  to  terminate  July  15,  1947,  was 
amended  on  November  24,  1943,  to  increase  the  amount  of  gold  made 
available  for  sale  to  Brazil  from  $200  millions  to  $300  millions. 

The  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  exchange  stabilization  fund  as  of 
June  30,  1943  and  1944,  with  supporting  schedules,  are  shown  in  the 
table  beginning  on  p.  730. 

Proposals  jor  international  currency  and  financial  cooperation. — The 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury  made  public  on  August  20,  1943,  a  revised 
draft,  dated  July  10,  1943,  of  the  Treasury's  tentative  proposal  for  an 
international  stabilization  fund  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations. 
The  revised  draft  was  prepared  by  the  technical  experts  of  the  Treas- 
ury in  cooperation  with  the  experts  of  other  departments  of  the  Gov- 
ernment after  extended  discussions  with  the  technical  experts  of  nearly 
thirty  countries.  These  technical,  exploratory  discussions  were  held 
in  response  to  an  invitation  sent  in  March  1943  by  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  to  the  finance  ministers  of  the  United  Nations  and  the 
countries  associated  with  them,  requesting  them  to  send  their  experts 
to  Washington  to  discuss  the  feasibility  of  international  monetary 
cooperation  along  the  lines  suggested  in  the  preliminary  draft  of  the 
Treasury's  tentative  proposal,  which  was  submitted  concurrently 
for  their  study.  Wliile  suggestions  of  the  foreign  teciinical  experts 
were  included  in  the  revised  version,  the  Secretary  pointed  out  that 
the  revised  draft  did  not  necessarily  reflect  the  views  of  the  experts 
of  those  countries,  that  it  was  in  every  sense  still  a  preliminary  docu- 
ment, and  that  it  had  not  received  the  official  approval  of  the  Treasury 
or  of  the  United  States  Government.     (See  exhibit  39,  p.  354.) 

A  tentative  proposal  for  a  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development 
of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations,  prepared  by  the  technical 
staffs  of  the  Treasury  and  of  other  departments  of  the  Government, 
was  made  public  on  November  23,  1943.  This  proposal  was  sent  by 
the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  to  the  finance  ministers  of  the  United 
Nations  and  the  countries  associated  with  those  nations  with  the 
request  that  it  be  studied  by  their  teciinical  experts.  In  his  foreword, 
the  Secretary  stated  that  the  primary  aim  of  such  an  international 
bank  should  be  to  encourage  private  capital  to  go  abroad  for  produc- 
tive investment  by  sharing  the  risks  of  private  investors  and  by  par- 
ticipating with  private  investors  in  large  ventures,  and  that  the  bank 
should  perform  only  that  part  of  the  task  which  private  capital 
could  not  do  alone.     The  proposal  outlined  a  plan  for  the  establish- 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        97 

ment  of  a  bank  with  a  capital  of  about  $10  billions  to  be  subscribed 
by  all  countries  which  become  members.     (See  exhibit  40,  p.  365.) 

On  April  21,  1944,  the  Secretary  appeared  before  the  Senate  Com- 
mittees on  Foreign  Relations  and  Banking  and  Currency,  and  the 
Special  Senate  Committee  on  Post-War  Economic  Policy  and  Planning, 
and  before  the  House  of  Representatives  Committees  on  Foreign 
Affairs,  Ways  and  Means,  Banking  and  Currency,  and  Coinage, 
Weights  and  Measures,  and  the  Special  House  Committee  on  Post-War 
Economic  Policy  and  Planning  to  report  the  progress  of  the  discussions 
on  the  fund  and  bank  proposals.  He  stated  that  technical  experts 
of  the  United  Nations  had  agreed  upon  a  set  of  basic  principles  for  an 
international  monetary  fund  and  that  progress  was  being  made  in 
the  discussion  of  the  proposal  for  a  world  bank.  He  expressed  the 
hope  that  after  studying  the  recommendations  of  the  technical 
experts  the  governments  of  the  United  Nations  would  come  to  the 
conclusion  that  there  was  sufficient  basis  of  agreement  at  a  tecluiical 
level  to  warrant  the  convening  of  a  formal  conference.  The  Secretary 
made  public  the  joint  statement  by  experts  on  the  establishment  of  an 
international  monetary  fund  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations. 
(See  exhibit  41,  p.  372.) 

After  further  consultation  among  the  representatives  of  the  inter- 
ested governments,  the  desirability  of  convening  a  formal  conference 
became  apparent  and  the  President  invited  the  United  Nations  and 
the  nations  associated  with  them  to  send  delegates  to  the  United 
Nations  Monetary  and  Financial  Conference  to  be  held  at  Bretton 
Woods,  N.  H.,  beginning  July  1,  1944.  The  President  designated 
the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  as  head  of  the  American  delegation  to 
the  Conference  and  in  a  letter  to  the  Secretary,  dated  June  9,  1944,  the 
President  stated  that  it  was  his  hope  that  the  Conference  would 
formulate  for  presentation  to  the  participating  governments  definite 
proposals  for  an  international  monetary  fund  and  possibly  a  bank  for 
reconstruction  and  development.  (See  exhibit  42,  p.  379.)  At  the 
close  of  the  fiscal  year,  acceptances  of  the  President's  invitation  had 
been  received  from  44  nations. 

Domestic  monetary  events 

One-cent  piece.— The  coinage  of  the  zinc-coated  steel  one-cent  piece, 
which  had  been  instituted  in  February  1943  as  a  war  measure  in  order 
to  conserve  vital  war  metal,  was  discontinued  on  December  31,  1943, 
after  the  passing  of  the  acute  phase  of  the  copper  stringency.  The 
coinage  of  copper-zinc  one-cent  pieces  was  resumed  on  January  1, 
1944. 

Silver  policy. — Throughout  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  Treasury  con- 
tinued the  policy  inaugurated  in  April  1942  of  putting  all  available 
silver  into  urgent  war  uses. 

613185—45 8 


98        REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

No  new  purchases  of  foreign  silver  were  made  during  the  year,  thus 
permitting  sucli  silver  to  go  into  industrial  and  other  uses.  Similarly, 
the  greater  part  of  the  silver  produced  in  the  United  States  during  the 
fiscal  year  was  left  available  for  important  war  uses,  since  the  Treas- 
ury's purchases  of  newly  mined  domestic  silver  under  the  act  of  July  6, 
1939,  amounted  to  only  861,294  ounces,  i.  e.,  about  2  percent  of  the 
total  domestic  production  estimated  at  42.8  million  ounces. 

Nearly  41  million  ounces  of  silver  were  sold  for  war  purposes 
under  the  provisions  of  the  act  of  July,  12  1943,  which  authorized 
the  President,  thi'ough  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  upon  the 
recommendation  of  the  Chah-man  of  the  War  Production  Board, 
to  lease  domestically  or  to  sell,  at  a  price  of  not  less  than  71.11 
cents  per  fine  ounce,  silver  held  or  owned  by  the  United  States. 

Lend-leasing  of  silver. — Up  to  June  15,  1944,  approximately  4,000 
short  tons  of  silver  had  been  shipped  by  the  United  States  to  allied 
and  friendly  foreign  countries  under  lend-lease  arrangements  for 
industrial  and  coinage  purposes  essential  to  the  conduct  of  the  war. 
On  that  date,  the  Secretary  announced  that  the  United  States  Gov- 
ernment had  agreed  to  lend-lease  to  the  government  of  India  100 
million  ounces  (approximately  3,429  tons)  of  silver  to  be  used  to 
maintain  an  adequate  supply  of  coinage  for  the  large  number  of  United 
Nations  forces  in  India  and  for  India's  expanded  war  production,  and 
to  help  to  keep  prices  stable  in  this  important  United  Nations  supply 
base  and  war  theater.  (See  exhibit  43,  p.  380.)  All  lend-leased  silver 
is  to  be  returned  to  the  United  States  Treasury  on  an  ounce-for-ounce 
basis  after  the  end  of  the  war  as  specified  in  the  respective  agreements. 

Military  currencies.- — On  August  2,  1943,  it  was  announced  that  the 
allied  expeditionary  forces  in  Sicily  were  introducing  in  the  liberated 
regions  an  "Allied  Military  Currency,"  designated  in  terms  of  the 
local  monetary  unit,  the  lira.  The  currency  was  prepared  in  the 
Bureau  of  Engraving  and  Printing,  to  be  used  by  the  allied  forces  for 
the  pa3^ment  of  troops  and  for  expenditures  for  local  supplies  and 
services  and  also  to  be  used,  if  necessary,  to  supplement  the  regular 
lira  currency  in  providing  an  adequate  circulating  medium. 

The  issuance  and  use  of  military  currency  is  carefully  controlled  to 
insure  that  it  is  employed  only  for  purposes  essential  to  military  oper- 
ations or  for  the  continued  operation  of  essential  trade  and  commerce 
and  for  Government  administration.  Wlien  the  United  States  Army 
obtains  allied  military  lire  for  expenditures  for  pay  of  troops  and  for 
the  purchases  of  supplies  and  services  in  the  area,  the  relevant  appro- 
priation of  the  War  Department  is  charged  with  the  dollar  equivalent 
of  such  expenditures.  In  connection  with  all  expenditures  complete 
records  are  being  kept  and  a  detailed  accounting  procedure  has  been 
set  up  covering  the  issuance  and  use  of  this  currency.  These  records 
also  will  facilitate  the  adjustment  of  other  financial  matters,  such  as 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY        99 

those  for  civil  affairs,  growing  out  of  the  miUtary  operations  of  the 
alhed  forces  in  the  occupied  area.     (See  exhibit  44,  p.  380.) 

When  the  alhed  troops  landed  in  Normandy  on  June  6,  1944, 
they  carried  with  them  a  supply  of  a  new  French  franc  currency  to 
insure  that  adequate  supplies  of  currency  would  be  available  for  the 
pay  of  allied  troops  and  for  the  purchase  of  local  supplies  and  serv- 
ices. This  currency  is  freely  interchangeable  with  and  is  supple- 
mentary to  the  franc  currency  of  the  Bank  of  France. 

On  February  9,  1944,  it  was  announced  that  the  special  Hawaiian 
series  of  United  States  currency  had  been  taken  by  American  marines, 
sailors,  and  soldiers  into  Central  Pacific  strongholds  from  which  the 
Japanese  had  been  driven.  This  currency,  originally  introduced  in 
Hawaii  in  July  1942,  consists  of  United  States  silver  certificates  and 
Federal  Reserve  notes  bearing  the  distinctive  overprint  ''Hawaii"  on 
each  end  of  the  face  and  across  the  reverse  side  of  the  bills.  This 
step  was  taken  to  facilitate  identification  of  the  currency  being  used 
in  combat  areas  and  to  make  easier  the  isolation  of  this  particular 
currency  should  it  fall  into  enemy  hands.     (See  exhibit  45,  p.  383.) 

A  discussion  of  developments  in  foreign  funds  control  will  be  found 
on  page  126. 

TAXATION  DEVELOPMENTS 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  two  major  tax  measures  became  law:  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1943  on  February  25,  1944,  and  the  Individual  Income 
Tax  Act  of  1944  on  May  29,  1944.  The  evolution  of  these  acts  and 
their  provisions  are  summarized  under  the  following  headings:  I.  De- 
velopment of  the  1943  revenue  program;  II.  Major  features  of  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1943;  III.  Development  of  simplification  plans;  and 
IV.  Major  features  of  the  Individual  Income  Tax  Act  of  1944.  A 
summary  of  other  revenue  laws  enacted  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  is 
presented  under  a  fifth  heading:  V.  Other  revenue  legislation. 

I.  Development  of  the  1943  revenue  iirogram 

Initially,  in  January  1943,  the  Administration's  goal  for  additional 
revenue  was  stated  in  the  President's  Budget  Message  as  "not  less  than 
$16  billions  of  additional  funds  by  taxation,  savings,  or  both,  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944."  After  passage  in  June  of  the  Current  Tax  Pay- 
ment Act  of  1943,  which  served  to  postpone  Congressional  considera- 
tion of  the  1943  general  revenue  program,  a  revenue  go  il  of  $12  billions 
was  adopted.^  As  presented  to  the  House  Ways  and  Means  Com- 
mittee in  October  1943,  the  Administration's  program  called  for  $10.5 
billions  of  added  revenue  in  a  full  year  of  operation.  The  Revenue 
Act  of  1943,  as  passed  over  the  President's  veto  in  February  1944, 
provided  added  revenues  estimated  at  $2.2  billions  per  year  (without

taking  into  account  the  postponement  of  automatic  increases  in  social 
security  payroll  taxes  and  the  potential  cost  of  the  special  relief  pro- 
visions in  the  act). 

A.  Budgetary  developments. — 

With  the  rapid  approach  to  full  mobilization  during  1942  and  1943 
came  correspondingly  rapid  expansion  of  Government  expenditures. 
Estimates  of  expenditures  for  the  fiscal  year  1943  rose  from  $59  billions 
in  the  Budget  Message  for  1943  to  $80  billions  in  the  Budget  Message 
for  1944;  estimates  of  net  receipts  under  then-existing  revenue  laws 
rose  from  $16.5  billions  to  $23  billions. 

Expenditures  for  the  fiscal  year  1944  in  the  Budget  Message  for 
that  year  were  estimated  at  $104  billions  and  net  receipts  at  $33  bil- 
lions; in  other  words,  net  receipts  were  estimated  at  32  percent  of 
expected  expenditures.  In  calling  for  at  least  $16  billions  of  addi- 
tional funds  by  taxation,  savings,  or  both,  for  1944,  the  President  in 
the  Message  stated  that  this  goal  was  set  with  the  view  to  checking 
inflationary  spending  and  raising  current  revenues  to  50  percent  of 
expenditures.  By  reducing  the  volume  of  additional  borrowing  and 
by  supporting  the  stabilization  program,  the  $16  billion  program  would 
also  aid  in  making  post-war  problems  manageable. 

Revised  estimates  of  receipts  and  expenditures  for  the  fiscal  year 
1944,  taking  into  account  the  provisions  of  the  Current  Tax  Payment 
Act  of  1943  (approved  June  9,  1943),  and  other  developments,  were 
issued  in  the  Statement  by  the  President  on  the  Summation  of  the 
1944  Budget  on  August  1,  1943.  Although  expenditures  estimates 
remained  at  $104  billions,  net  receipts  estimates  were  revised  upward 
$5  billions  to  $38  billions,  or  37  percent  of  expected  expenditures. 
In  the  Statement,  the  President  reiterated  the  need  for  "a  truly  stiff 
program  of  additional  taxes,  savings,  or  both,"  pointing  out  that  such 
a  program  was  urgently  needed  further  to  absorb  purchasing  power 
"as  a  deterrent  to  bidding  up  prices  and  resorting  to  the  black  market." 

Budget  figures  were  revised  again  in  November  1943,  when  the 
Budget  Director  announced  estimates  placing  net  receipts  at  $41 
billions  and  total  expenditures  at  $98  billions,  a  ratio  of  net  receipts 
to  expenditures  of  42  percent. 

B.  Development  and  presentation  oj  Treasury  proposals. — 
Alternative  plans  for  raising  $16  billions  of  additional  annual  revenue 

were  developed  by  the  Treasury  and  discussed  with  other  executive 
agencies  late  in  1942,  but  were  tabled  pending  the  settlement  of  the 
pay-as-you-go  issue.  Discussions  of  the  general  revenue  program 
were  formally  resumed  in  June  1943.  The  Congressional  committees 
decided  at  that  time  to  postpone  hearings  on  general  revenue  legisla- 
tion until  late  summer  or  early  fall.  Discussions  throughout  the 
summer  of  1943  centered  around  a  goal  of  $12  billions,  the  reduction 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       101 

from  $16  billions  having  been  made  on  the  basis  of  revisions  in  revenue 
estimates  taking  account  of  the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act. 

The  Treasury  sought  the  views  of  other  executive  departments  on 
taxation  in  a  series  of  conferences  during  August  and  September  1943. 
In  these  and  other  conferences  during  September,  Treasury  revenue 
proposals  were  discussed  and  the  Administration  program  calling  for 
$10.5  billions  in  additional  revenue  annually  was  developed.  The  re- 
duction from  the  $12  billions  goal  took  effect  entirely  in  the  individual 
income  tax  proposals,  the  consensus  being  that  inequalities  in  ability 
to  pay  ruled  out  the  tax  rates  necessary  to  reach  the  higher  goal. 

The  $10.5  billions  revenue  program  was  presented  to  the  House 
Ways  and  Means  Committee  in  a  statement  by  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  on  October  4,  1943.  (See  exhibit  46,  p.  384.)  Judge  Vinson, 
Director  of  Economic  Stabilization,  appeared  before  the  committee 
October  6  and  7  "in  support  of  the  program  recommended  by  the 
Secretary."  The  Treasury's  revenue  proposals,  for  the  most  part, 
were  not  adopted  by  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  of  the  House  of 
Representatives  or  the  House;  the  House  bill  (H.  R.  3687)  provided 
for  about  $2  billions  in  additional  annual  revenues.  In  a  statement 
to  the  Senate  Finance  Committee,  November  29,  1943,  the  Secretary 
of  the  Treasury  reiterated  the  need  for  at  least  $10.5  billions  in  added 
revenue.  (See  exhibit  47,  p.  416.)  Action  by  the  Senate  Finance 
Committee  and  the  Senate  did  not  increase  materially  the  yield  of  the 
House  biU. 

In  addition  to  its  statements  on  the  general  revenue  program  the 
Treasury  expressed  its  position  on  several  other  revenue  matters. 
With  respect  to  individual  income  tax  simplification,  the  Treasury  in 
September  1943  suggested  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  several 
alternative  methods  of  simplifying  the  1943  Victory  tax;  made  addi- 
tional recommendations  in  the  Secretary's  statement  of  October  4 ;  and 
on  November  29  and  December  15,  1943,  presented  further  views  on 
alternative  methods  of  integrating  the  Victory  tax  with  the  regular 
income  tax  structure.  (For  the  November  29  statement,  see  exhibit 
48,  p.  420.) 

On  the  subject  of  renegotiation  of  war  contracts  a  statement  of  the 
Treasury  position  was  made  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  on 
September  10,  1943  (see  exhibit  49,  p.  446),  and  the  attitude  of  the 
Treasury  on  the  amendments  to  the  renegotiation  statute  proposed  by 
the  Senate  Finance  Committee  was  expressed  in  a  press  release  of 
December  20,  1943. 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  made  a  statement  favoring  expanded 
social  security  benefits  and  increased  payroll  taxes  as  a  part  of  his 
geneml  statement  of  October  4  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee. 
He  also  reiterated  the  Treasury's  opposition  to  the  sales  tax  in  a  sup- 


102       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

plementary   statement   before    the   Senate    Finance   Committee    on 
November  29.     (See  exhibit  47,  Supplemental  Statement  I,  p.  418.) 

The  Treasury  also  submitted  several  analytical  studies  for  the  use  of 
the  congressional  committees.  Of  these  studies  the  following  are  pub- 
lished in  the  Hearings  on  Revenue  Revision  of  1943  before  the  Com- 
mittee on  Ways  and  Means:  (1)  "The  Need  for  More  Taxes,"  pages 
23-52;  (2)  "Taxation  of  Increases  in  Individual  Incomes,"  pages  90- 
107;  (3)  "Post-war  Expenses  Related  to  Wartime  Income,"  pages  135- 
169;  and  (4)  "Considerations  Respecting  a  Federal  Retail  Sales  Tax,"

C.   Treasury  proposals. — ■ 

1.  General  Statement. 

The  program  recommended  by  the  Treasury  to  raise  an  additional 
$10.5  billions  annually  was  made  up  as  follows: 

Increase  over  yield 
of  existing  law 
(in  millions) 

Individual  income  tax $6,  529 

Corporation  taxes 1,  138 

Estate  and  gift  taxes 402 

Excise  taxes 2,  492 

Total 10,561 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  stated  that  if  payroll  taxes  were 
increased  (as  he  recommended  in  a  supplementary  statement),  the 
proposed  $6.5  billions  schedule  of  income  taxes  would  have  to  be 
reduced  to  avert  the  burden  of  excessive  taxation  on  lower  income 
groups.  In  addition  to  the  revenue  recommendations,  the  Secretary 
made  other  suggestions  to  reduce  the  complications  in  our  tax  laws. 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  pointed  out  that  the  tax  proposals  he 
was  presenting  had  been  measured  igainst  (1)  the  ability  of  the  pro- 
posals to  raise  money  and  to  combat  inflation,  (2)  the  degree  to  which 
they  might  interfere  with  war  production,  (3)  their  impact  on  people 
with  fixed  incomes  or  fixed  obligations  and  on  people  with  inadequate 
incomes,  and  (4)  their  practicability  and  cost  from  the  standpoint  of 
administration. 

2.  Individual  Income  Tax. 

The  chief  reliance  for  additional  revenue,  to  the  extent  of  almost 
two-thirds  of  the  Treasury's  1943  program,  was  placed  on  the  indi- 
vidual income  tax.  To  lessen  the  ultimate  impact  of  the  increased 
tax  on  the  lower  income  groups  and  to  provide  equitable  current  relief 
for  persons  wath  fixed  incomes,  the  Treasury  developed  suggestions 
for  a  post-war  credit  or  refund  of  part  of  the  tax,  the  credit  to  be  taken 
currently  where  income  had  not  increased  substantially.  JVIoreover, 
with  the  more-than-tenfold  expansion  of  the  number  of  taxpayers  and 
the  introduction  of  current  collection,  it  became  urgently  necessary  to 
simplify  the  tax. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       103 

Accordingly,  the  Treasury  proposed  (1)  repeal  of  the  Victory  tax, 
(2)  repeal  of  the  earned  income  credit,  (3)  reduction  of  exemptions  for 
married  persons  and  dependents,  (4)  increased  surtax  rates  throughout 
the  scale,  and  (5)  withholding  at  graduated  rates  from  salaries  and 
wages.  Two  different  suggestions  for  post-war  refund  of  part  of  the 
income  tax  were  also  submitted. 

a.  CHANGES    IN    RATES,    EXEMPTIONS,    AND    CREDITS. 

No  increase  in  the  normal  tax  rate  of  6  percent  was  proposed,  but 
increases  in  surtax  rates  were  proposed  for  all  brackets.  As  in  1942, 
it  was  again  recommended  that,  to  make  the  progression  more  gradual 
in  the  lower  end  of  the  income  scale,  the  first  bracket  of  surtax  income, 
0  to  $2,000,  be  divided  into  $500  brackets.  Surtax  rates  on  the  lirst 
$500  bracket  were  to  be  increased  from  13  to  21  percent,  and  on  the 
fourth  $500  from  13  to  30  percent.  In  the  range  from  $2,000  to 
$60,000,  surtax  rate  increases  of  approximately  20  percentage  points 
were  proposed.  In  the  top  bracket  ($200,000  and  over)  the  proposed 
rate  change  was  from  82  to  90  percent.  At  the  same  time,  repeal  of 
the  Victory  tax  (levied  at  net  rates  of  approximately  3  percent)  was 
recommended. 

It  was  further  recommended  that  the  exemption  for  married  persons 
be  lowered  from  $1,200  to  $1,100  and  the  dependent  credit  from  $350 
to  $300,  the  single  person's  exemption  to  remain  unchangel  at  .?50Q 
Repeal  of  the  10  percent  earned -income  credit  was  also  urged. 

b.  VICTORY    TAX. 

The  Treasury  felt  that  the  complicated  Victory  tax  offered  the 
major  opportunity  for  prompt  simplification  of  compliance  operations 
for  millions  of  income  taxpayers.  In  September  1943,  the  Treasury 
laid  before  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  several  alternative 
methods  of  simplifying  the  1943  Victory  tax  without  materially 
affecting  burdens.  The  suggestion  adopted  by  the  Ways  and  Means 
Committee  (and  later  enacted)  was  to  change  the  1943  Victory  tax  to 
accord  with,  the  assumption  that  all  post-war  credits  could  be  taken 
currently.  This  action  reduced  the  complexity  of  the  Victory  tax 
computation  on  1943  returns.  The  further  Treasury  suggestion  that 
the  1943  Victory  tax  be  changed  to  a  flat  3  percent  was  not  adopted 
at  that  time,  but  was  later  incorporated  for  1944  in  the  Revenue 
Act  of  1943. 

In  his  statement  of  October  4,  1943,  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury 
urged  the  repeal  of  the  Victory  tax  as  the  foremost  step  toward  tax 
simplification.  It  was  pointed  out  that  repeal  would  also  relieve 
9  million  lower  income  families  from  the  income  tax.  The  $300 
millions  previously  payable  by  these  families  was  to  be  absorbed  in 


104       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

the  proposed  schedule  of  surtax  rates  combined  with  the  proposed 
lowering  of  exemptions.  The  proposal  was  not  accepted  by  the 
Congress. 

As  passed  by  the  House,  the  revenue  bill  (H.  R.  3687)  substituted 
for  the  Victory  tax  a  new  minimum  tax  designed  to  retain  on  the  tax 
rolls  the  9  million  taxpayers  who  would  have  been  dropped  under  the 
Treasury  proposals.  In  its  statement  to  the  Senate  Finance  Com- 
mittee on  November  29,  1943  (see  exhibit  48,  p.  420),  the  Treasury 
opposed  the  minimum  tax  provisions  because  of  their  complexity  and 
urged  again  that  the  Victory  tax  be  dropped  and  that  the  income  tax 
be  adjusted  to  absorb  the  Victory  tax  burden.  It  was  urged  that  this 
step  be  taken  whether  or  not  more  far-reaching  changes  in  the  surtax 
scale  were  made.  A  further  analysis  of  the  complications  of  the 
minimum  tax  was  submitted  to  the  Senate  Finance  Committee  on 
December  15,  1943.  The  Committee  accepted  neither  the  minimum 
tax  nor  the  Treasury's  integration  plan.  However,  it  changed  the 
Victory  tax  to  a  flat  3  percent  rate  for  all  persons  regardless  of  marital 
or  dependency  status,  a  step  which  the  Treasury  considered  preferable 
to  adoption  of  the  minimum  tax. 

C.    OTHER    SIMPLIFICATION    PROPOSALS. 

The  Treasury  again,  as  it  had  in  1942,  urged  the  Congress  to 
eliminate  the  earned -income  credit  and  thus  permit  the  consolidation 
of  the  normal  tax  and  surtax  into  a  single  tax  schedule.  Since  the 
law  designated  the  first  $3,000  of  net  income  as  earned  net  income 
regardless  of  its  source,  the  credit  was  deprived  of  its  chief  "significance, 
yet  it  continued  to  complicate  tax  returns  and  computations. 

A  further  change  recommended  to  simplify  compliance  was  the 
withholding  of  taxes  from  wages  and  salaries  at  graduated  rates. 
This  move  would  have  increased  by  several  millions  the  number  of 
taxpayers  kept  on*^a  strictly  current  basis  by  withholding  and  would 
have  correspondingly  reduced  the  number  of  persons  required  to  file 
declarations  of  estimated  tax. 

d.    POST-WAR    CREDITS. 

To  lighten  the  ultimate  burden  of  the  proposed  tax  increases  on 
the  lower  income  groups,  the  Treasury  suggested  two  alternative 
post-war  credit  plans  as  possibilities  for  the  Committee's  considera- 
tion. One  suggestion  would  have  granted  post-war  credits  of  $2.3 
billions  by  refunding  after  the  w\ar  50  percent  of  the  first  $50  of  tax, 
plus  25  percent  of  the  next  $50,  plus  5  percent  of  the  balance,  with 
a  maximum  credit  of  $250.  The  other  suggestion  would  have  granted 
post-war  credits  of  $3.5  billions  by  refunding  50  percent  of  the  first 
$50  of  tax,  plus  25  percent  of  the  next  $150  of  tax,  plus  10  percent 
of  the  balance,  with  a  maximum  credit  of  $400. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       105 

It  was  further  suggested  that  if  a  post-war  credit  were  adopted 
special  provision  should  be  made  to  allow  immediate  use  of  the  post- 
war credit  for  tax  payment  where  the  taxpayer's  income  had  not 
increased  substantially. 

e.  TAXATION    OF    INCREASES    IN    INCOME. 

The  Ways  and  Means  Committee  on  July  6,  1943,  directed  the  tax 
staffs  of  the  Joint  Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation  and  of 
the  Treasury  Department  to  study  the  problem  of  taxing  increases 
in  individual  income.  In  a  series  of  conferences  in  July,  August, 
and  September,  the  staffs  were  unable  to  find  a  satisfactory  method 
of  isolating  and  taxing  such  increases.  The  Treasury  submitted  a 
study  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  on  October  4,  1943,  en- 
titled "Taxation  of  Increases  in  Individual  Income."  The  study 
pointed  out  the  advantages  and  disadvantages  and  especially  the 
technical  difficulties  of  such  a  tax,  reaching  the  conclusion  that  "the 
tax  on  wartime  income  increases  is,  on  balance,  undesirable."  How- 
ever, the  suggestion  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  that  persons 
with  fixed  incomes  should  be  allowed  to  use  currently  any  post-war 
credit  that  might  be  provided  was  designed  to  prevent  proposed  rate 
increases  from  bearing  too  harshly  on  persons  whose  incomes  had 
not  risen  during  the  war. 

f.  OTHER    CHANGES. 

Disallowance  of  the  deduction  for  Federal  excise  taxes  paid  except 
where  incurred  as  a  trade  or  business  expense  or  in  the  production 
of  income  was  recommended  by  the  Treasury.  This  was  incorporated 
in  the  tax  bill  by  the  House. 

The  Treasury  approved  of  several  changes  made  by  the  Senate  in 
the  penalties  relating  to  the  declaration  and  payment  of  estimated 
tax.  The  most  important  of  these  permitted  the  taxpayer  to  use 
without  penalty  his  preceding  year's  income  as  the  basis  for  his 
current-year  declaration  of  estimated  tax.  Persons  with  unpredict- 
able incomes  were  thus  given  a  means  of  estimating  their  tax  without 
incurring  the  risk  of  a  penalty. 

The  Treasury  approved  of  a  provision  inserted  in  the  revenue  bill 
of  1943  granting  special  treatment  for  back  pay  exceeding  15  percent 
of  an  individual's  gross  income.  The  provision  limited  the  tax  attrib- 
utable to  such  back  pay  to  an  amount  computed  as  if  the  back  pay 
had  been  included  in  the  gross  income  of  the  taxable  years  to  which 
such  pay  is  attributable. 

3.  Corporation  Taxes. 

In  his  statement  of  October  4,  1943,  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury 

recommended  that  corporation  taxes  be  increased.     He  pointed  out 

that  despite  increases  in  taxes,  net  corporation  income  after  taxes 

had  risen  greatly  since  1939  and  that  additions  to  capital  out  of 


106       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

earnings  would  amount  to  an  estimated  $11  or  $12  billions  for  the  3 
years,  1941,  1942,  and  1943.  He,  therefore,  recommended  increases 
in  corporation  taxes  designed  to  raise  an  additional  $1,1  billion,  but 
at  the  same  time  urged  that  small  corporations  be  given  special 
favorable  treatment. 

a.  RATES,    EXEMPTIONS,    AND    CREDITS. 

The  Treasury  recommended  that  the  surtax  on  larger  corporations 
(those  with  net  income  in  excess  of  $25,000)  be  increased  by  10 
percentage  points  to  raise  the  combined  normal  and  surtax  rate  from 
40  to  50  percent.  On  smaller  corporations  the  increase  suggested  was 
4  percentage  points.  No  change  in  excess-profits  tax  rates  was 
recommended. 

The  bill  passed  by  the  House  made  no  change  in  the  surtax  rates 
but  raised  the  excess-profits  tax  rate  from  90  to  95  percent.  The 
House  also  reduced,  by  one  percentage  point,  the  excess-profits  credit 
allowed  on  invested  capital  for  corporations  with  more  than  $5  millions 
but  no  more  than  $200  millions  of  invested  capital,  and  raised  the 
specific  exemption  for  excess-profits  taxes  from  $5,000  to  $10,000. 
In  its  statement  before  the  Senate  Finance  Committee  on  November 
29,  1943,  the  Treasury  endorsed  the  increase  in  the  specific  exemption 
(which  had  been  recommended  by  the  Treasury  in  1942)  and  also  the 
reductions  in  the  invested-capital  credit.  However,  the  action  of  the 
House  in  increasing  excess-profits  taxes  rather  than  surtaxes  was 
opposed  on  the  grounds:  (1)  That  the  change  would  increase  tax 
liabilities  for  comparatively  few  corporations,  (2)  that  excess-profits 
tax  increases  would  not  strike  corporate  profits  generally  but  only  a 
restricted  segment  of  such  profits,  (3)  that  the  corporate  surtax,  be- 
cause of  its  broad  coverage  and  the  fact  that  it  reaches  war  profits 
that  are  not  designated  as  excess  profits  in  the  tax  law,  offered  greater 
assurance  that  all  corporations  which  had  benefited  from  the  war 
would  make  an  additional  tax  contributon,  and  (4)  that  an  increase 
in  the  already  high  excess-profits  tax  rate  would  be  more  likely  to 
impair  incentives  to  efficient  management  than  an  increase  in  the 
substantially  lower  surtax  rates. 

b.  CARRY-BACK    OF    LOSSES    AND    UNUSED    EXCESS-PROFITS 

CREDITS. 

In  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  the  Congress  had  adopted  provisions 
allowing  a  2-year  carry-back  of  losses  and  unused  excess-profits 
credits,  under  which  many  corporations  would  become  eligible  for  tax 
refunds  during  the  reconversion  period.  After  studying  these  pro- 
visions the  Treasury  concluded  that  the  benefits  which  the  carry- 
backs were  intended  to  give  corporations  with  difficult  reconversion 
problems  would  not  be  fully  realized  unless  measures  were  adopted 
for  speeding  up  the  refunds.     The  proposed  method  for  accelerating 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       107 

refunds  so  as  to  make  cash  available  at  the  time  when  it  would  be 
most  needed,  was  outlined  in  the  Treasury's  statement  of  October 
27,  1943,  to  the  Subcommittee  on  War  Contract  Termination  of  the 
Senate  Committee  on  Military  Affairs.  (See  exhibit  50,  p.  449.)  It 
was  proposed  that  a  corporate  taxpayer  anticipating  carry-back 
refunds  by  reason  of  a  current  decline  in  earnings  should  be  permitted 
to  postpone  the  payment  of  taxes  currently  due  (on  the  income 
earned  in  the  preceding  year)  in  an  amount  equal  to  the  estimated 
refund.  The  acceleration  proposal  w^as  discussed  by  Treasury 
representatives  before  the  House  Ways  and  Means  Committee  and 
the  Senate  Finance  Committee  but  was  not  incorporated  in  the 
revenue  bill. 

C.    TECHNICAL  AND  RELIEF  PROVISIONS. 

Both  the  House  and  the  Senate  inserted  in  the  tax  bill  provisions 
designed  to  grant  tax  relief  to  certain  types  of  corporations.  A 
number  of  these  measures  were  opposed  by  the  Treasury.  Several 
which  were  incorporated  in  the  act  as  passed  were  also  cited  as  ob- 
jectionable by  the  President  in  his  Message  vetoing  H.  R.  3687. 
(See  exhibit  51,  p.  455.) 

The  Treasury  pointed  out  that  adjustments  to  provide  tax  relief 
are  desirable  in  some  cases  to  alleviate  hardship  and  promote  equity, 
but  that  reliefs  improperly  granted  simply  result  in  loss  of  revenue 
and  inequitable  distribution  of  tax  burdens  among  business  enter- 
prises. It  opposed  the  following  proposals  as  unnecessary  or 
unjustified: 

(1)  The  extension  of  percentage  depletion  and  excess-profits  tax 
exemption  to  minerals  not  designated  as  "strategic"  by  the  War 
Production  Board. 

(2)  The  granting  of  special  excess-profits  tax  treatment,  originally 
designed,  to  take  account  of  accelerated  depletion  of  certain  natural 
resources,  to  pipe-line  companies  transporting  natural  gas. 

(3)  The  treatment  of  income  from  cutting  of  timber  as  a  capital 
gain  taxable  at  a  maximum  rate  of  only  25  percent. 

(4)  A  provision  prolonging  excess-profits  tax  exemption  for  certain 
air  lines  holding  Government  contracts  for  mail  transportation. 

(5)  A  provision  permitting  reorganized  corporations  to  use  the 
adjusted  cost  basis  of  the  predecessor  corporation  as  the  basis  for 
computing  depreciation  and  excess-profits  credit. 

(6)  The  allowance  to  railroads  of  full  deduction  against  current 
income  of  capital  losses  on  investments  in  securities  of  other  railroads. 

(7)  The  Senate  amendment  broadening  greatly  the  excess-profits 
tax  relief  for  new  coal  and  iron  properties  and  new  timber  tracts. 

The  Treasury  indicated  its  approval  of  a  technical  provision  in  the 
House  bill  designed  to  discourage  corporate  acquisitions  made  for 
the  purpose  of  avoiding  income  and  excess-profits  taxes.     This  provi- 


108  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF  THE   TREASURY 

sion  disallowed  benefits  from  an  acquisition  when  its  principal  purpose 
was  found  to  be  tax  avoidance. 

4.  Estate  and  Gift  Taxes. 

The  Treasury  recommended  that  the  estate  tax  exemption  be 
reduced  from  $60,000  to  $40,000  and  that  estate  and  gift  tax  rates  be 
increased  throughout  the  scale.  The  lowest  rate,  applicable  to  the 
first  $5,000  of  net  estate,  would  have  been  increased  from  3  to  5  per- 
cent. Modest  rate  increases  were  proposed  in  the  remaining  lower 
brackets,  e.  g.,  on  the  portion  of  net  estate  from  $10,000  to  $15,000, 
from  11  to  12  percent.  Sharper  rate  increases  were  proposed  in  the 
middle  and  higher  brackets,  e.  g.,  $70,000  to  $100,000,  28  to  37  per- 
cent; $450,000  to  $500,000,  32  to  60  percent;  $900,000  to  $1,000,000, 
37  to  75  percent;  and  $2,000,000  to  $2,500,000,  49  to  80  percent. 
The  maximum  rate  would  have  been  increased  from  77  to  80  percent, 
and  would  have  applied  to  the  portion  of  net  estate  over  $1,500,000 
instead  of  over  $10,000,000,  as  under  the  law  then  in  effect.  It  was 
further  proposed  that  the  differential  between  estate  and  gift  tax  rates 
be  retained,  i.  e.,  that  gift  tax  rates  be  set  at  three-quarters  of  the 
proposed  estate  tax  rates. 

5.  Excise  and  Sales  Taxes. 

After  making  detailed  analyses  of  different  industries  and  consider- 
ing the  mamier  in  which  producers  and  consumers  would  be  affected, 
the  Treasury  recommended  that  an  additional  $2.5  billions  be  raised 
from  excise  taxes  (a)  by  increasing  rates  and  changing  the  bases  of 
several  existing  excises  and  (6)  by  enacting  new  excises  on  soft  drinks 
and  on  candy  and  chewing  gum. 

The  Treasury  regarded  selective  excises  as  a  desirable  source  of 
additional  war  revenue  for  several  reasons:  (1)  They  involved  only 
modest  increases  in  administrative  costs  for  the  Government  and  in 
compliance  costs  for  taxpayers,  (2)  their  net  effect  would  be  to  reduce 
rather  than  increase  inflationary  pressures,  and  (3)  being  levied  on  only 
a  few  nonessentials  and  thus  giving  consumers  a  real  choice  between 
paying  higher  taxes  and  decreasing  their  purchases,  they  would  not 
cause  hardship  for  consumers. 

The  sales  tax  was  opposed  by  the  Treasury  because,  in  contrast  to 
selective  excises,  it  would  (1)  involve  much  greater  administrative 
and  compliance  effort,  (2)  sharply  increase  the  cost-of-living  index 
(both  directly  and  indirectly  through  increasing  the  farm  parity  index 
and  through  the  impact  on  business  costs)  and  would  thus  interfere 
with,  rather  than  support,  the  Government's  wartime  stabilization 
program,  and  (3)  impose  hardship  on  lower  income  groups  by  forcing 
them  to  reduce  their  consumption  of  the  necessities  of  life. 

In  selecting  commodities  and  services  for  proposed  excise  taxation, 
the  Treasury  tried  to  avoid  levies  which  would  interfere  with  the 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       109 

stabilization  program.  The  Treasury  recommended  the  repeal  of  the 
tax  on  the  transportation  of  property,  which  had  been  enacted  in  1942, 
on  the  ground  that  it  disturbed  existing  price  and  competitive  relation- 
ships and  conflicted  with  the  Government's  efforts  to  stabilize  prices. 
The  termmation  of  numerous  excise  tax  exemptions  on  sales  of 
goods  and  services  to  the  Federal  Government  was  requested  by  the 
President  in  a  letter  dated  August  11,  1943,  to  the  Chairman  of  the 
Committee  on  Ways  and  Means.  In  order  to  save  manpower  used 
by  the  Federal  Government  and  private  business  in  administering 
these  exemptions,  it  was  recommended  that  the  exemption  of  sales  to 
Federal  agencies  from  manufacturers'  and  retailers'  excise  taxes  and 
from  taxes  on  transportation  and  communications  be  ended. 

6.  Social  Security  Taxes. 

In  his  October  4,  1943,  statement  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Com- 
mittee, the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  strongly  urged  that  the  social 
security  system  be  amplified  and  extended  and  that  payroll  taxes  be 
increased.  On  the  ground  that  expansion  of  the  system  would  con- 
tribute to  the  future  security  of  American  working  men  and  farmers, 
and  that  it  would  also  serve  a  useful  purpose  in  combating  inflation, 
the  Treasury  endorsed  proposals  for  higher  payroll  taxes.  At  the 
same  time,  however,  it  was  noted  that,  in  order  to  avoid  undue  bur- 
dens on  the  low-income  groups,  the  individual  income  tax  increases 
proposed  by  the  Treasury  would  have  to  be  scaled  down  if  payroll 
taxes  were  increased. 

The  increase  in  social  security  payroll  taxes  scheduled  by  statute 
for  January  1,  1944,  was  postponed  until  March  1,  1944,  by  a  joint 
resolution  signed  by  the  President  December  22,  1943.  Previously, 
on  December  20,  in  a  statement  to  the  press  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  urged  that  Congress  allow  the  scheduled  increase  to  become 
effective.  In  the  Senate,  a  provision  further  postponing  these  in- 
creases until  January  1 ,  1945,  was  inserted  into  the  tax  bill  and  became 
part  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943.  In  his  message  of  January  10,  1944, 
transmitting  the  1945  Budget  to  the  Congress,  the  President  strongly 
urged  the  retention  of  the  social  security  rate  increases  scheduled 
by  law. 

7.  Renegotiation  of  War  Contracts. 

At  hearings  on  the  renegotiation  of  war  contracts  before  the  Ways 
and  Means  Committee  (held  from  September  9  to  21,  1943),  the 
Treasury  presented  a  statement  of  its  views.  Its  recommendations 
related  primarily  to  changes  which  had  been  proposed  in  the  basic 
structure  of  renegotiation,  namely,  that  renegotiation  should  be  based 
on  profits  after  (a)  deducting  all  taxes  and  (6)  allowing  for  reserves 
for  post-war  reconversion  and  contingencies.  The  Treasury  opposed 
the  proposal  to  deduct  taxes  on  the  grounds  that  (1)  the  Government 


110       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

would  in  effect  be  paying  the  taxes  of  firms  with  excessive  profits. 
(2)  renegotiation  would  cease  to  be  a  procurement  procedure  and 
would  encroach  directly  on  the  tax  field,  and  (3)  the  Government 
would  find  it  impossible  to  pursue  sound  pricing  procedures  on  war 
contracts.  On  the  subject  of  reconversion  and  contingency  reserves, 
the  Treasury  pointed  out  that  the  eft'ective  consideration  of  allowances 
for  these  reserves  required  a  broader  setting  than  renegotiation  and 
urged  that  the  tax  implications  of  this  move  be  studied  before  final 
disposition  of  the  problem  was  made. 

At  the  hearings  before  the  Senate  Finance  Committee  on  the 
Kevenue  Act  of  1943,  the  Treasury  suggested  that  the  provision  in 
the  House  bill  resting  the  jurisdiction  for  contractors'  appeals  on 
renegotiation  in  The  Tax  Court  of  the  United  States  was  unwise  and 
might  endanger  the  prompt  collection  of  revenue  by  overburdening 
that  court.  It  was  urged  instead  that  jurisdiction  over  appeals  be 
granted  to  the  Court  of  Claims.  The  Treasury  also  concurred  in  the 
revisions  recommended  to  the  Finance  Committee  by  the  Joint  Price 
Adjustment  Board  on  which  it  was  represented. 

In  a  statement  to  the  press  on  December  20,  1943,  the  Secretary 
of  the  Treasury  characterized  as  unworkable  and  inequitable  the 
extensive  revisions  in  the  renegotiation  statute  proposed  by  the 
Senate  Finance  Committee.  Specific  reference  was  made  to  (1)  pro- 
posed adjustments  which  would  reopen  already  settled  cases  and 
postpone  final  settlement  on  contracts  for  a  number  of  years,  (2) 
exemptions  to  makers  of  standard  commercial  articles,  and  (3) 
exemptions  to  subcontractors  whose  goods  did  not  enter  into  the 
final  product. 

II.  Major  features  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  ' 

A.  General  statement. — 

The  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  which  became  law  on  February  25,  1944, 
over  the  Presidential  veto,  provided  an  estimated  $2.2  billions  in 
additional  revenue  annually  (not  taking  into  account  the  revenue 
effects  of  its  changes  in  payroll  taxes  and  its  special  relief  provisions) . 
Approximately  half  of  this  increase  took  effect  in  the  excise  taxes, 
the  other  half  consisting  principally  of  income  and  excess-profits 
taxes  and  to  a  lesser  extent  of  increased  postal  rates.  The  act  froze 
the  social  security  payroll  taxes  for  old-age  and  survivors'  benefits  at 
existing  levels  for  the  calendar  year  1944;  amended  the  statute  pro- 
viding for  renegotiation  of  war  contracts;  and  made  a  number  of 
technical  amendments,  including  several  designed  to  provide  relief 
to  certain  corporate  tax  payers. 


1  The  changes  in  rates,  exemptions,  and  credits  made  by  the  1943  act  are  shown  in  tabular  form  in  exhibit 
53,  beginning  on  p.  458. 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY  OF   THE   TREASURY  HI 

B.  Individual  income  tax. — 

1.  Rates,  Exemptions,  and  Credits. 

No  changes  were  made  in  the  norm  il  and  surtax  rates  on  the  mcome 
of  individuals. 

The  tax  withholding  rate  on  the  wages  of  nonresident  aliens  brought 
into  the  United  States  under  authority  of  the  War  Manpower  Com- 
mission was  reduced  from  30  to  10  percent  on  the  gross  amount  of 
wages. 

The  personal  exemptions  and  the  dependent  credit  were  left  un- 
changed: $500  for  single  persons,  $1,200  for  married  persons  and 
heads  of  families,  and  $350  for  each  dependent. 

The  date  for  determination  of  marital  and  dependency  status  was 
set  at  July  1  of  the  taxable  year  for  purposes  of  all  returns.  Formerly 
taxpayers  other  than  those  filing  on  the  simplified  form  (Form  1040A) 
were  required  to  prorate  the  exemptions  and  credits  if  their  status 
changed  during  the  taxable  year. 

2.  Victory  Tax. 

The  Victory  tax  rate  was  reduced  from  5  to  3  percent  of  Victory  tax 
net  income  in  excess  of  $624,  regardless  of  family  status.  The  Victory 
tax  base  was  not  changed,  but  the  current  credits  allowed  against  the 
Victory  tax  were  repealed. 

3.  Deductions. 

The  1943  act  introduced  several  new  deductions  from  taxable 
income  of  certain  groups  of  individuals.  It  provided  a  special  deduc- 
tion of  $500  from  gross  income  for  all  blind  persons.  The  amounts 
received  as  mustering-out  payments  for  service  in  the  military  or 
naval  forces  of  the  United  States  were  excluded  from  gross  income. 
Also  excluded  were  amounts  received  as  cost-of-living  allowances  or 
post  allowances  by  (1)  clerks  or  employees  in  the  Foreign  Service  of 
the  United  States,  (2)  ambassadors,  ministers,  diplomatic,  consular  or 
Foreign  Service  officers;  and  (3)  other  civilian  officers  or  employees  of 
the  Government  of  the  United  States  stationed  outside  the  continental 
United  States. 

Under  prior  law  Federal  excise  taxes  paid  were  allowed  as  a  deduc- 
tion for  income  tax  purposes  to  taxpayers  upon  whom  they  were 
legally  imposed.  The  1943  act  repealed  this  deduction,  except  where 
the  tax  paid  is  a  trade  or  business  expense  or  is  incurred  in  the  pro- 
duction of  income. 

In  the  case  of  sole  proprietors  and  partners,  deductions  (other  than 
taxes  and  interest)  attributable  to  a  business  operated  at  a  loss  of 
more  than  $50,000  for  each  of  five  consecutive  years  are  limited  to  a 
net  loss  of  $50,000  in  any  such  year;  and  the  net  operating  loss  deduc- 
tion under  section  122  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  to  the  extent 
attributable  to  such  business,  is  disallowed. 


112  report  of  the  secretary  of  the  treasury 

4.  Other  Changes. 

Another  provision  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  hmits  the  tax  attrib- 
utable to  back  pay  received  or  accrued  by  an  individual  during  the 
taxable  year.  If  the  back  pay  exceeds  15  percent  of  the  gross  income 
for  the  taxable  year,  the  maximum  tax  attributable  to  such  back  pay 
shall  be  the  tax  resulting  from  the  inclusion  of  such  amounts  in  the 
gross  income  for  the  taxable  years  to  which  the  back  pay  is  attributable. 
Back  pay  is  defined  to  include  (a)  remuneration  deferred  for  a  variety 
of  causes  such  as  bankruptcy  or  receivership  of  the  employer,  litiga- 
tion, or,  where  the  employer  is  a  government,  for  lack  of  funds,  (b) 
retroactive  pay  increases  ordered,  recommended,  or  approved  by  a 
government  agency,  and  (c)  payments  attributable  to  prior  years 
arising  out  of  violation  of  laws  pertaining  to  fair  labor  standards  or 
practices. 

The  penalties  connected  with  the  filing  and  payment  of  estimated 
tax  under  the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943  were  revised.  The 
penalty  for  substantial  understatement  of  the  tax  was  retained,  but 
was  made  inapplicable  where  the  tax  is  computed  on  the  preceding 
year's  income  at  current  year's  rates  and  exemptions,  and  is  paid  on 
time  in  equal  quarterly  installments,  or  is  paid  in  advance.  The 
penalties  for  failure  to  file  a  declaration  and  for  failure  to  pay  an  install- 
ment of  estimated  tax  were  made  more  liberal  by  graduating  them 
according  to  the  length  of  time  the  failure  continues,  and  by  making 
them  inapplicable  where  there  is  a  reasonable  cause  for  the  delay. 

The  so-called  second  antiwindfall  provision  of  the  Current  Tax 
Payment  Act  of  1943,  relating  to  additional  increase  in  1943  tax  where 
income  was  substantially  increased  in  comparison  with  income  for  the 
base  year,  was  repealed. 

C.  Corporation  taxes. — 

1.  Rates,  Exemptions,  and  Credits. 

No  changes  in  corporate  normal  and  surtax  rates  were  made  by  the 
act.  However,  several  changes  were  made  in  the  excess-profits  tax 
rates,  exemption,  and  credits.  The  excess-profits  tax  rate  was  raised 
from  90  to  95  percent,  thus  increasing  the  net  rate  (after  the  10  percent 
post-war  credit)  from  81  percent  to  85.5  percent.  The  specific  ex- 
emption was  increased  from  $5,000  to  $10,000.  The  act  retained  the 
80  percent  maximum  eft'ective  rate  limitation  on  combined  corporate 
income  and  excess-profits  taxes.  The  invested  capital  credit  with 
respect  to  invested  capital  in  excess  of  $5,000,000  was  revised  as 
follows :

Act  of  1943 


2.  Relief  Provisions. 

a.  Excess-profits  tax. 

A  number  of  extensions  were  made  in  the  relief  afforded  by  the  1942 
act  to  owners  of  gas,  mineral,  and  timber  properties.  (1)  Natural  gas 
companies  were  permitted  to  exclude  from  the  tax  base  nontaxable 
income  from  exempt  excess  output  in  the  same  manner  as  owners  of 
coal  and  iron  mines.  (2)  The  owners  of  new  coal  and  iron  properties 
and  of  timber  tracts  (those  not  in  operation  for  at  least  6  months  during 
the  base  period)  were  granted  the  same  treatment  as  the  owners  of  old 
properties  and  tracts.  In  the  case  of  such  new  properties  one- third 
of  the  current  output  was  to  be  treated  as  excess  outpat.  (3)  Lessors 
of  any  mineral  properties  or  timber  tracts  were  granted  the  same  relief 
as  had  formerly  been  extended  only  to  the  operators  of  such  properties 
or  tracts.  (4)  To  the  list  of  strategic  minerals,  the  producers  of  which 
are  granted  full  excess-profits  tax  exemption,  were  added  fluorspar, 
flake  graphite,  and  vermiculite. 

Under  prior  law,  corporations  subject  to  Title  IV  of  the  Civil  Aero- 
nautics Act  were  exempt  from  excess-profits  tax  if  their  income  subject 
to  excess-profits  tax  was  equal  to  or  less  than  compensation  received 
from  the  United  States  for  the  transportation  of  mail  by  plane.  This 
provision  was  extended  by  permitting  such  corporations  to  deduct  the 
excess  of  mail  compensation  over  income  subject  to  excess-profits  tax 
of  1  year  from  income  subject  to  excess-profits  tax  of  another  year 
through  the  device  of  a  carry-over  or  carry-back  of  unused  excess- 
profits  tax  credit,  but  only  for  the  purpose  of  determining  whether  the 
corporation  is  exempt  from  excess-profits  tax  in  such  other  year. 

b.  Other  relief. 

Other  relief  provisions  in  tlie  1943  act  broadened  the  statute  per- 
mitting the  use  of  the  predecessor's  basis  of  property  for  purposes  of 
computing  depreciation,  capital  gains  and  losses,  etc.,  in  tlie  case  of 
certam  corporate  reorganizations.  The  applicability  of  the  statute 
granting  this  privilege  to  insolvent  railroad  corporations  was  extended 
back  to  include  the  taxable  year  beginning  January  1,  1939.  A 
statute  was  passed  involving  similar  treatment  for  insolvency  reor- 
ganizations other  than  of  railroads,  but  this  amendment  was  made 
applicable  only  to  taxable  years  beginning  in  1943  and  thereafter. 
In  the  case  of  corporations  reorganizing  under  section  77B  of  the 

613185—45 n 


114       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

National  Bankruptcy  Act,  an  amendment  permitted  the  reorg:anized 
taxpayer  to  retain  tiie  old  basis  of  property  without  reduction  for  can- 
celation of  debt,  if  the  reorganization  involved  adjustment  of  the 
capital  structure  or  debt  structure  without  transfer  of  the  assets  to 
another  corporation  and  was  consummated  prior  to  September  22, 
1938. 

In  the  case  of  gains  from  the  sale  or  exchange  oi  property  pursuant 
to  Federal  Communications  Comniission  order,  it  was  provided  that 
at  the  election  of  the  taxpayer  no  gain  should  be  recognized  if  the 
property  disposed  of  were  exchanged  for  other  similar  properties,  or  if 
the  proceeds  were  either  used  to  acquire  other  similar  property  or  held 
in  a  replacement  fund,  or  if  the  basis  of  other  depreciable  assets  of  the 
taxpayer  were  reduced  to  the  extent  of  the  money  which  was  not  so 
expended. 

Relief  was  also  extended  to  the  owners  of  certain  mineral  properties 
under  a  provision  extending  percentage  depletion  for  the  duration  of 
the  war  to  producers  of  flake  graphite,  vermiculite,  beryl,  feldspar, 
mica,  lepidolite,  spodumene,  talc,  barite,  and  potash.  Under  another 
provision  the  furnacing  of  quicksilver  and  the  cyanidation  of  gold 
were  recognized  as  ordinary  treatment  processes  for  the  purpose  of 
determining  gross  income  from  such  mineral  properties. 

Finally,  taxpayers  owning  timber,  or  having  the  contract  right  to 
cut  timber  from  the  property  of  another,  were  permitted  to  elect  to 
treat  income  from  the  cutting  of  timber  in  any  taxable  year  as  a  capital 
gain  rather  than  as  ordinary  income.  The  same  treatment  was 
granted  to  timber  owners  who  disposed  of  standing  timber  under  leas- 
ing contracts. 

3.  Prevention  of  Tax  Avoidance. 

With  a  view  to  discouraging  corporate  acquisitions  made  for  the 
purpose  of  avoiding  income  and  excess-profits  taxes,  it  was  specifically 
provided  that  the  tax  benefits  from  such  acquisitions  should  be  dis- 
allowed wholly  or  partially  in  cases  where  (a)  control  of  a  corporation 
has  been  acquired,  and  (6)  the  principal  purpose  of  such  acquisition 
is  found  to  be  tax  avoidance. 

4.  Other  Changes. 

Other  minor  changes  in  the  tax  laws  affecting  corporations  were: 
a  provision  permitting  mutual  fire  insurance  companies  issuing 
perpetual  premium  policies  to  be  taxed  in  the  same  manner  as  stock 
insurance  companies  other  than  life;  the  allowance  of  a  deduction  to 
corporations  for  gifts  and  contributions,  whether  or  not  for  charitable 
purposes,  to  organizations  of  war  veterans;  and  the  disallowance  of  the 
credit  for  dividends  paid  on  the  preferred  stock  of  public  utilities  with 
respect  to  arrearages  dating  back  to  taxable  years  ending  prior  to 
October  1,  1942. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  TPIE  TREASURY       115 

D.  Estate  and  gift  taxes. — 

No  changes  were  made  in  the  exemptions  and  rates  of  estate  and 
gift  taxes.  However,  two  technical  amendments  were  made  to  the 
estate  and  gift  laws.  An  amendment  to  the  estate  tax  law  provided 
that  in  the  case  of  unlisted  stock  and  securities  the  value  of  which 
cannot  be  determined  with  reference  to  bid  and  asked  prices  or  sales 
prices  by  reason  of  their  not  being  listed  on  an  exchange  and  of  the 
absence  of  sales,  the  value  thereof  shall  be  determined  by  taking  into 
consideration,  in  addition  to  other  factors,  the  value  of  listed  stock  or 
securities  of  corporations  engaged  in  the  same  or  a  similar  line  of 
business. 

The  gift  tax  was  amended  to  provide  that  in  the  case  of  a  trust 
created  prior  to  January  1,  1939,  if  on  and  after  January  1,  1939,  no 
power  to  revest  title  to  the  property  could  be  exercised  either  by  the 
grantor  alone,  or  in  conjunction  with  any  other  person  not  having  a 
substantial  adverse  interest  in  the  disposition  of  the  property  or  the 
income  therefrom,  then  a  relinquishment  by  the  grantor  on  or  after 
January  1,  1939,  and  prior  to  January  1,  1945,  of  power  or  control 
with  respect  to  the  distribution  of  such  property  or  the  income  there- 
from, shall  not  be  deemed  to  constitute  a  transfer  of  property  for  gift 
tax  purposes:  Provided  that  if  the  trust  was  created  or  the  power  to 
revest  the  property  in  the  grantor  was  relinquished  while  a  gift  tax 
law  was  in  effect,  the  amendment  is  inapplicable  unless  (1)  a  gift  tax 
was  paid  with  respect  to  such  creation  or  relinquishment  which  has 
not  been  credited  or  refunded,  or  a  gift  tax  return  was  filed  and  the 
value  reported  did  not  exceed  the  specific  exemption  and  exclusion 
claimed  on  that  return,  and  (2)  the  grantor  consents,  in  accordance 
with  regulations  prescribed,  to  treat  the  original  transfer  as  having 
been  a  transfer  of  property  subject  to  gift  tax. 

E.  Excise  taxes. — 

Liquor  taxes  were  increased  to  the  following  rates:  Distilled  spirits, 
$9  per  proof  gallon;  still  wines,  not  more  than  14  percent  alcohol,  15 
cents  per  wine  gallon;  still  wines,  more  than  14  percent  and  not  over

Floor  stocks  taxes  on  distilled  spirits,  wines,  and  fermented  malt 
liquors  were  imposed  at  rates  equal  to  the  tax  rate  increases  on  these 
commodities. 

The  tax  on  admissions  was  increased  to  1  cent  for  each  5  cents  or 
major^fraction^thereof  paid.     The  taxes  on  permanent  use  or  lease 


116       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

of  boxes  or  seats  in  any  place  of  amusement,  and  the  sales  of  tickets 
outside  of  box  offices  were  increased  to  20  percent. 

The  1943  act  increased  the  cabaret  tax  to  30  percent  of  the  total 
charge.  This  rate  was  later  reduced  to  20  percent,  effective  July  1, 
1944,  under  a  provision  of  the  Public  Debt  Act  of  1944. 

Taxes  on  club  dues  and  initiation  fees  were  increased  to  20  percent. 

The  tax  on  bowling  alleys  was  increased  to  $20  per  alley,  and  the 
tax  on  billiard  and  pool  tables  to  $20  per  table,  except  that  the  tax 
was  made  inapplicable  to  a  billiard  or  pool  table  in  a  hospital  if  no 
charge  was  made  for  the  use  of  such  table. 

Excise  taxes  on  furs,  toilet  preparations,  electric  light  bulbs  and 
tubes,  and  jewelry,  except  on  watches  retailing  at  nor  more  than  $65 
and  alarm  clocks  retailing  at  not  more  than  $5,  were  increased  to  20 
percent. 

The  manufacturers'  excise  tax  on  luggage  was  suspended;  in  lieu 
thereof  a  20  percent  retailers'  excise  tax  was  imposed. 

Taxes  on  telegraph,  telephone,  radio,  and  cable  facilities  were  in- 
creased as  follows :  Telephone  or  radiotelephone  message  or  conversa- 
tion for  which  the  toll  charge  is  more  than  24  cents,  domestic  tele- 
graph, cable  or  radio  dispatches,  and  leased  wire,  teletypewriter,  or 
talking  circuit  special  service,  to  25  percent;  wire  and  equipment 
service,  to  8  percent;  local  telephone  service,  to  15  percent. 

The  excise  tax  on  transportation  of  persons  was  increased  to  15 
percent. 

The  manufacturers'  excise  tax  on  vacuum  cleaners  was  repealed. 

The  increases  in  the  excise  taxes  under  the  1943  act  are  to  end  on 
the  first  day  of  the  first  month  which  begins  6  months  or  more  after 
the  termination  of  hostilities  in  the  present  war. 

The  1943  act  also  terminated  the  exemption  of  sales  to  the  Federal 
Government  from  manufacturers'  and  retailers'  excises,  import  taxes, 
and  taxes  on  pistols  and  revolvers,  communications  services,  trans- 
portation of  persons,  and  transportation  of  property,  except  in  the 
case  of  articles  sold  under  a  contract  entered  into  prior  to  the  time 
such  sales  became  taxable,  or  under  any  agreement  supplemental  to 
such  contract  bearing  the  same  Government  contract  number.  It 
further  provided  that  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  may  authorize 
exemption  if  he  determines  that  the  imposition  of  the  taxes  will  cause 
substantial  burden  or  expense  which  can  be  avoided  by  granting  tax 
exemption  and  that  the  full  benefit  of  such  exemption  will  accrue  to 
the  United  States. 

F.  Social  security  taxes. — 

The  automatic  1  percent  increase  in  social  security  payroll  taxes 
scheduled  for  the  calendar  year  1944  by  the  Federal  Insurance  Con- 
tributions Act  was  further  postponed  until  January  1,  1945. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       117 

G.  Renegotiation  of  war  contracts. — 

Title  VII  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  amended  section  403  of  the 
Sixth  Supplemental  National  Defense  Appropriations  Act,  1942  (the 
Renegotiation  Act),  and  Title  VIII  added  a  new  section  entitled 
''Repricing  of  War  Contracts." 

The  act  created  a  joint  War  Contracts  Price  Adjustment  Board. 
It  also  established  certain  factors  which  should  be  taken  into  con- 
sideration in  determining  excessive  profits.  It  exempted  (a)  con- 
tractors whose  aggregate  annual  sales  under  war  contracts  were  not 
in  excess  of  $500,000,  replacing  the  figure  of  $100,000  under  prior 
law,  (6)  agricultural  commodities  up  to  the  first  stage  where  they 
have  an  established  market,  (c)  contractors  who  are  exempt  under 
the  Federal  income  tax  law,  and  {(i)  construction  contracts  awarded 
under  competitive  bidding.  Provision  was  made  for  the  deduction 
of  the  amortization  of  emergency  facilities  as  recomputed  if  the  facility 
ceases  to  be  necessary  for  national  defense,  or  if  hostilities  cease  prior 
to  the  end  of  the  5-year  emergency  period  for  that  facDity. 

The  act  further  provided  for  allowance  in  computing  excessive 
profits  of  items  "estimated  to  be  allowable"  as  deductions  for  tax 
purposes  (except  the  carry-backs  of  uiuised  losses  and  excess-profits 
credits) . 

Procedural  changes  were  also  made  which  provided  for  appeal  by 
an  aggrieved  contractor  to  The  Tax  Court  of  the  United  States  (after 
discretionary  review  by  the  War  Contracts  Price  Adjustment  Board 
created  by  this  act).  Renegotiation  was  to  be  terminated  on  Decem- 
ber 31,  1944,  with  the  President  being  given  the  power  to  terminate 
renegotiation  6  months  earlier  or  to  extend  its  application  for  6  months 
after  this  date;  but  the  termination  date  was  not  to  be  later  than  the 
date  of  termination  of  hostilities.  In  addition  to  the  major  changes 
just  listed,  Title  VII  of  the  act  made  numerous  minor  changes  in  the 
renegotiation  statute. 

Title  VIII,  Repricing  of  War  Contracts,  provided  that  the  Secretary 
of  a  department  or  other  head  of  a  Government  procurement  agency 
could  reprice  any  contract  or  subcontract  when  excessive  profits 
were  being  earned  under  it.  An  aggrieved  contractor  could  sue  for 
damages  in  the  appropriate  court.  This  title  was  to  terminate  upon 
cessation  of  hostilities.  Further  discussion  of  war  contracts  renego- 
tiation appears  on  pages  21  and  125. 


118       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

H.  Postal  rates. — 

Rates  of  postage  on  mail  and.  special  services  were  increased  to  the 
following  levels:  First-class  mail  for  local  delivery,  3  cents  per  ounce; 
air  mail,  8  cents  per  ounce  ^  ;  money  orders,  10  to  37  cents  per  order; 
registered  mail,  20  cents  to  $1.35  per  article;  insured  mail,  10  to  70 
cents  per  article;  collect-on-delivery  service,  24  to  90  cents  per  article. 
On  fourth-class  mail  the  rates  in  each  class  were  increased  by  3  per- 
cent of  present  rates  or  1  cent,  whichever  was  greater.  The  increases 
in  the  postal  rates,  fees  and  charges  shall  cease  to  be  in  effect  on  the 
first  day  of  the  first  month  which  begms  at  least  6  months  after 
termination  of  hostilities  in  the  present  war. 

Ill,  Development  of  simplification  plans 

By  providing  a  system  of  withholding  and  current  quarterly  pay- 
ments, the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943  removed  the  1-year  lag 
in  income  tax  payment  and  provided  a  system  of  easy  budgeting  of 
taxes  for  wage  earners.  However,  the  need  for  tax  simplification  re- 
mained and  was  in  fact  mtensified.  Action  was  therefore  taken  early 
in  1944  to  simplify  income  tax  compliance. 

Some  simplification  had  been  achieved  in  1941  when,  on  the  rec- 
ommendation of  the  Treasury,  a  short  form  embodying  a  tax  table 
(Supplement  T)  was  provided  by  the  Congress  for  persons  with  small 
incomes.  In  the  interest  of  further  simplification  the  Treasury 
proposed,  both  in  1942  and  1943,  that  the  earned-income  credit  be 
eliminated.  This  was  done  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943.  In  the 
fall  of  1943  the  Treasury  also  recommended  the  adoption  of  graduated 
withholding  and  the  absorption  of  the  Victory  tax  into  the  regular 
income  tax.  The  1943  act  incorporated  neither  of  these  proposals, 
although  it  somewhat  simplified  the  Victory  tax. 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  in  mtroducing  suggestions  for 
simplification  in  October  1943,  stated  that  it  was  vitally  important 
to  take  every  possible  step  to  remove  the  complications  in  the  tax 
laws  making  necessary  the  fiUing  out  of  long  and  difficult  tax  forms 
by  the  taxpayer.  In  his  Budget  Message  of  January  10,  1944,  the 
President  urged  "Tax  simplification  to  reduce  the  burdens  of  com- 
pliance of  the  many  millions  of  taxpayers  by  elimination  of  returns 
where  feasible  and  by  other  measures  *  *  *."  The  urgency  was 
widely  recognized  in  the  Congress,  and  a  number  of  bills  embodying 
simplification  plans  were  introduced  for  consideration. 

During  the  latter  part  of  1943,  the  Treasury  tax  staffs,  including 
the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue,  the  Division  of  Tax  Research,  and 
the  Office  of  the  Tax  Legislative  Counsel,  had  explored  alternative 

1  Administrative  order  PM  16604  (Postal  Bulletin,  December  26,  1941)  issued  by  the  Postmaster  General 
under  the  authority  of  48  Stat.  943  (5  U.  S.  C.  372),  established  the  rate  of  6  cents  for  each  half  ounce  or 
fraction  thereof  for  air  mail  sent  to  or  by  the  armed  forces  of  the  United  States  overseas  served  through 
Army  and  Navy  post  offices.  This  rate  was  continued  by  instructions  of  the  Third  Assistant  Postmaster 
General,  February  28,  1944. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       119 

methods  of  simplifying  the  individual  income  tax.  During  the  early 
months  of  1944,  at  the  instance  of  the  congressional  committees  on 
taxation,  the  tax  staffs  of  the  Joint  Committee  on  Internal  Revenue 
Taxation  and  of  the  Treasury  Department  continued  this  work  as  a 
joint  effort.  On  March  10,  1944,  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  wrote 
to  the  Honorable  Robert  L.  Doughton,  Chah^man  of  the  Committee 
on  Ways  and  Means  of  the  House,  and  to  the  Honorable  Walter  F. 
George,  Chairman  of  the  Senate  Finance  Committee,  assuring  them 
of  the  complete  cooperation  of  the  Treasury  Department  in  the 
simplification  endeavor  and  urging  speedy  enactment  of  the  proposed 
legislation.     (See  exhibit  52,  p.  457.) 

The  plans  developed  by  the  congressional  and  Treasury  tax  staffs 
were  discussed  in  a  series  of  meetings  with  the  Ways  and  Means  Com- 
mittee in  February  and  March.  No  public  hearings  were  held. 
On  March  17  the  Committee  announced  its  tentative  approval  of  a 
simplification  plan.  Agreement  on  this  plan,  modified  only  slightly 
by  changes  in  the  House  Ways  and  Means  and  Senate  Finance  Com- 
mittees, was  so  widespread  that  no  dissenting  vote  was  recorded  in 
either  house  of  Congress  during  its  passage.  The  bill  was  signed  by 
the  President  on  May  29,  1944. 

IV.  Major  features  of  the  Individual  Income  Tax  Act  of  1944-  ^ 

The  1944  act  drastically  revised  filing  procedures.  It  made  the 
following  major  changes: 

1.  It  broadened  the  scope  of  the  simplified  table  (Supplement  T) 
method  of  tax  computation  (a)  by  raising  the  upper  limit  of  the  table 
from  $3,000  to  $5,000,  (6)  by  extending  its  use  to  all  types  of  income, 
and  (c)  by  raising  the  standard  allowance  for  deductions  incorporated 
in  the  table  from  6  to  10  percent. 

2.  It  revised  the  wage-bracket  withholding  tables  to  place  them  on 
substantially  the  same  basis  as  the  Supplement  T  final-liability  table 
and  thus  to  increase  the  exactness  of  withholding  (a)  by  narrowing  the 
wage  brackets,  (6)  by  incorporating  the  10  percent  standard  deduc- 
tions allowance,  and  (c)  by  graduating  tax  withholding  to  cover  both 
the  first  and  second  brackets  of  surtax. 

3.  It  provided  that  persons  with  gross  incomes  of  less  than  $5,000 
derived  entirely  from  wages,  interest,  and  dividends  and  including  not 
more  than  $100  from  sources  not  subject  to  withholding  should  bo 
given  the  option  of  having  the  collectors  of  internal  revenue  compute 
their  tax. 

4.  It  provided  an  optional  $500  standard  allowance  for  deductions 
for  persons  with  gross  incomes  of  $5,000  or  more. 


'  The  changps  in  rates,  exemptions,  and  credits  made  b>  the  1944  act  are  shown  m  tabular  form  in  ex- 
hibit 53,  p.  458.

REPORT   OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 


5.  It  repealed  the  Victory  tax  and  substituted  for  it  a  new  3  percent 
normal  tax  on  the  net  income  of  each  person  in  excess  of  a  flat  exemp- 
tion of  $500  (husband  and  wife  filing  a  joint  return  being  allowed  an 
exemption  of  $500,  plus  an  additional  $500  or  the  amount  of  the  smaller 
of  their  two  incomes,  whichever  is  less). 

6.  It  combined  the  levies  previously  known  as  the  normal  tax  and 
the  surtax  into  a  new  surtax  with  rates  ranging  from  20  percent  on  the 
first  $2,000  of  surtax  net  income  to  91  percent  on  the  portion  of  surtax 
net  income  over  $200,000  (the  new  rates  in  the  higher  brackets  incor- 
porating adjustments  to  absorb  the  previous  differential  burden  of  the 
Victory  tax  in  those  brackets) . 

7.  It  changed  the  personal  exemption  for  surtax  purposes  to  a  uni- 
form $500  for  the  taxpayer,  for  his  spouse,  and  for  each  of  his  de- 
pendents. 

In  effect,  these  changes,  together  with  the  regulations  issued  pur- 
suant to  the  1944  act,  divided  taxpayers  into  three  groups: 


Group 


Filing  procedure 


Taxpayers  with  gross  incomes  of  less 
than  $5,000  derived  entirely  from 
wages,  interest,  and  dividends  and 
including  not  more  than  $100  from 
sources  not  subject  to  withholding, 
and  whose  actual  deductions  are  less 
than  10  percent  of  gros.s  income. 


Taxpayers  with  gross  incomes  of  less 
than  $5,000  who  receive  any  income 
from  sources  other  than  wages,  inter- 
est, and  dividends  or  more  than  $100 
from  sources  not  subject  to  with- 
holding or  who  elect  the  10  percent 
standard  deduction. 

Taxpayers  who  fa)  receive  gross  in- 
comes'of  $5,000  or  more  or  (b) 
claim  actual  deductions  instead  of 
the  10  percent  allowance,  regardless 
of  size  of  income. 


The  estimated  30  million  taxpayers  in 
this  group  will  file  withholding  re- 
ceipts instead  of  the  longer  return  and 
will  have  their  tax  liabilit}^  determined 
by  the  collectors  of  internal  revenue 
on  the  basis  of  the  revised  Supple- 
ment T  table  (which  allows  them  a 
10  percent  standard  allowance  for 
deductions) . 

The  estimated  10  million  taxpayers  in 
this  group  will  file  the  regular  return 
(Form  1040)  but  will  determine  their 
liability  from  the  expanded  Supple- 
ment T  table. 


The  estimated  10  million  taxpayers  in 
this  group  will  file  the  regular  return 
and  compute  their  tax  directl}^  How- 
ever, those  with  gross  incomes  of 
$5,000  or  more  are  given  the  option 
of  taking  a  $500  standard  deduction 
in  lieu  of  listing  and  claiming  actual 
deductions. 


The  1944  act  made  several  other  changes  in  the  individual  income 
tax.  It  simplified  the  definition  of  a  dependent  and  the  treatment  of 
a  dependent's  income.  A  dependent  was  redefined  as  any  closely 
related  person  for  whom  the  taxpayer  furnishes  over  half  of  tlie  support, 
provided  that  such  person  does  not  receive  an  annual  gross  income  of 
$500  or  more,  and  is  a  citizen  of  the  United  States  or  a  resident  of  the 
United  States  or  a  contiguous  country.  The  act  further  provided  that 
the  earnings  of  a  minor  are  to  be  included  in  his  own  income  and  ex- 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       12 1 

eluded  from  the  gross  income  of  the  parent,  thus  estabUshing  uniform- 
ity among  the  various  States  with  reference  to  Federal  income  tax- 
ation of  the  compensation  for  services  performed  by  a  minor  child. 

The  act  simplified  declaration  procedure  and  reduced  by  an  esti- 
mated 4  millions  the  number  of  persons  required  to  file  declarations  of 
estimated  tax.  Under  prior  law,  persons  with  less  than  $100  of  income 
from  sources  not  subject  to  withholding  were  required  to  file  declara- 
tions whenever  their  anticipated  wages  and  salaries  exceeded  $2,700  if 
single  or  $3,500  if  married.  Under  the  1944  act,  the  requirement  was 
raised  to  $5,000  plus  an  additional  $500  for  the  taxpayer's  spouse  and 
each  of  his  dependents.  The  new  requirement  was  made  effective  for 
1945  and  subsequent  years. 

The  date  for  the  filing  of  the  final  declaration  and  for  payment  of 
the  final  installment  of  estimated  tax  was  changed,  effective  in  1944, 
from  December  15  to  January  15  of  the  following  year,  with  the  addi- 
tional provision  that,  on  or  before  January  15,  taxpayers  may  file  their 
final  return  in  lieu  of  a  declaration  (or  an  amendment  thereof)  required 
on  that  date. 

The  act  altered  the  definition  of  a  farmer  for  purposes  of  the  decla- 
ration requirements.  Under  prior  law,  a  farmer  was  defined  as  a  tax- 
payer who  derives  80  percent  or  more  of  his  gross  income  from  farming. 
The  act  lowered  the  requirement  to  66^3  percent  of  the  gross  income, 
eft'ective  in  1944.  The  date  for  the  filing  of  declarations  by  farmers 
was  extended  from  December  15  to  January  15,  and,  as  in  the  case  of 
other  taxpayers,  it  was  provided  that  a  final  return  might  be  filed  in 
lieu  of  a  declaration. 

Finally,  the  act  changed  the  date  for  determination  of  marital 
status  to  the  last  day  of  the  taxable  year  and  simplified  filing  require- 
ments to  provide  for  the  filing  of  a  return  by  every  person  with  a  gi'oss 
income  of  $500  or  more. 

V.  Other  revenue  legislation 

Other  laws  affecting  the  revenue  were  as  follows : 

Pubhc  Law  172,  October  26,  1943,  amending  sections  735  and  711  of 
the  Internal  Revenue  Code  to  exempt  from  the  excess-profits  tax  the 
bonus  payments  received  for  mineral  products  recovered  from  mine 
tailings. 

Public  Law  178,  October  28,  1943,  amending  sections  435  and  453  of 
the  Internal  Revenue  Code  and  to  provide  that  the  credits  under  the 
Victory  tax  shall  be  taken  currently. 

Public  Law  180,  November  4,  1943,  amending  section  3475  of  the 
Internal  Revenue  Code  to  make  minor  revisions  in  the  Government 
exemption  from  the  tax  on  transportation  of  property. 

Public  Law  201,  December  17,  1943,  amending  section  722  of  the 
Internal  Revenue  Code  to  extend  the  time  within  which  applications 


122       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

for  general  relief  under  the  excess-profits  tax  must  be  made;  amending 
sections  292  and  3711  of  the  Internal  Kevenue  Code  to  prevent  pay- 
ment of  interest  on  deficiencies  and  overpayments  resulting  from  or 
based  upon  relief  under  section  722  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code;  and 
amending  section  162  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code  to  extend  the 
time  for  establishing  a  pension  trust  exempt  under  section  165  of  the 
Internal  Revenue  Code  to  December  31,  1944.

CUSTOMS  SERVICE  IN  THE  WAR 

In  addition  to  its  normal  functions  the  Customs  Service  is  charged 
with  the  physical  control  of  exports,  vessels,  vehicles,  and  persons  to 
insure  that  no  articles  are  taken  from  the  United  States  except  under 
license  or  similar  authorization;  with  the  physical  enforcement  of  the 
provisions  of  the  Foreign  Funds  Control  Act  and  the  regulations  pro- 
mulgated thereunder  as  they  relate  to  the  exportation  and  importation 
of  currency,  negotiable  instruments,  secm-ities,  and  other  evidences  of 
indebtedness;  with  the  control  of  American  citizens  leaving  the  United 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       123 

States  to  insure  that  they  hold  valid  passports;  and  with  the  enforce- 
ment of  the  Trading  with  the  Enemy  Act  in  the  censorship  of  tangible 
communications  brought  into  or  taken  from  the  United  States  other- 
wise than  in  the  regular  course  of  the  mails. 

Active  cooperation  is  given  by  the  Customs  Service  to  the  Army  and 
Navy  intelligence  services  and  to  the  Federal  Bureau  of  Investigation. 
The  Customs  Service  is  also  furnishing  substantial  assistance  to  the 
Coast  Guard  in  the  protection  from  sabotage  of  vessels,  harbors,  ports, 
and  waterfront  facilities. 

Customs  officers  cooperate  with  the  War  Production  Board  and  the 
Ofiice  of  Price  Administration  in  the  enforcement  of  certain  regulations 
of  those  organizations.  In  the  case  of  the  War  Production  Board  the 
Customs  Service  assists  in  controlling  the  importation  of  restricted 
materials.  It  assists  the  Office  of  Price  Administration  in  the  rationing 
of  ships'  supplies  and  imports  of  sugar,  processed  foods,  meats,  fats, 
fish,  cheeses,  tires,  shoes,  and  rubber. 

A  further  discussion  of  the  war  activities  of  the  Customs  Service  will 
be  found  on  page  216. 

SPECIAL  PROCUREMENT  ACTIVITIES 

Lend-lease 

The  Procurement  Division's  share  in  the  lend-lease  program  con- 
tinued to  constitute  its  most  important  task  in  connection  with  the 
war  in  terms  of  volume  of  goods  involved.  An  increased  diversifica- 
tion of  requirements  and  sources  necessitated  the  making  of  a  greater 
number  of  contracts  under  this  program  during  the  fiscal  year  1944 
than  in  either  of  the  preceding  years.  A  total  of  26,788  contracts 
were  entered  into,  which  was  an  increase  of  2,534  "■  over  1943.  Ex- 
penditures for  the  purchases  included  in  these  contracts  during  the 
year  totaled  $1,086,587,324.  Aggregate  expenditures  since  receipt  of 
the  first  requisition  for  lend-lease  purchases  on  April  3,  1941,  have 
been  $3,676,101,926  ',  representing  63,009  '  contracts. 

The  Procurement  Division  is  continuing  to  administer  space  totaling 
3  million  square  feet  of  open  space  and  VA  million  square  feet  of  closed 
space  at  seven  lend-lease  storage  depots  located  in  Army  installations 
in  addition  to  the  extensive  use  of  commercial  storage  facilities 
throughout  the  country.  These  depots  and  facilities  are  also  being 
used  for  the  storage  and  distribution  of  material  for  civilian  use  and 
consumption  in  the  liberated  areas. 

Surplus  property  disposal 

Changes  in  military  requirements  continued  to  result  in  avail- 
ability of  increasing  quantities  of  materiel  and  other  supplies  for 


'  Includes  revisions  for  earlier  years. 


124  REPORT   OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF    THE   TREASURY 

redistribution.  For  the  first  time  during  this  war  the  various  military 
services  were  the  principal  sources  of  surplus  property  turned  over  to 
the  Procurement  Division  for  disposal.  Surplus  property  disposals 
in  1944  amounted  to  $88,260,017,  which  was  almost  10  times  that  of 
the  previous  year.  About  73  percent  of  this  total,  consisting  of  pro- 
ceeds of  $64,383,426,  was  sold  in  private  commercial  channels  and  to 
lend-lease.  The  remainder  constituted  transfers  to  Government 
agencies.  In  1943,  on  the  other  hand,  the  principal  sources  of  prop- 
erty turned  over  to  fehe  Division  were  Government  nonwar  agencies. 
Most  of  the  property  in  that  year  was  of  such  a  type  that  it  could  be 
disposed  of  by  transfer  to  some  Government  agencies,  and  only  about 
5  percent  ($521,000)  of  total  disposals  of  $9,076,000  ■■  were  made  to 
private  commercial  channels. 

The  increase  in  surplus  property  handled  by  the  Procurement 
Division  reflected  a  general  increase  in  all  surplus  property  growing 
out  of  the  war  program.  Since  an  organization  developed  chiefly  for 
the  task  of  insuring  proper  utilization  of  Government  property  within 
Federal  agencies  was  obviously  inadequate  in  size  and  experience  for 
the  responsibility  of  disposing  of  huge  quantities  of  goods  to  com- 
mercial firms,  comprehensive  plans  were  formulated  and  steps  were 
taken  looking  to  the  building  of  an  organization  which  could  assume 
this  responsibility.  Impetus  was  given  to  this  move  by  Executive 
Order  No.  9425,  dated  February  19,  1944,  which  established  the 
Surplus  War  Property  Administration  and  named  the  Procurement 
Division  as  the  disposal  agency  for  surplus  war  property  in  the  con- 
sumer-goods category,  as  well  as  certain  other  types  of  property  in 
the  disposal  of  which  it  had  previous  experience.  The  Division 
continued  to  handle  all  negotiations  for  sale  of  surplus  materials  to 
other  lend-lease  countries. 

During  the  last  few  months  of  the  fiscal  year,  the  initial  steps  were 
taken  in  the  direction  of  building  an  organization  adequate  to  assume 
the  increased  responsibilities  assigned  to  the  Procurement  Division. 
The  Office  of  Surplus  Property  was  established  within  the  Division 
to  take  the  place  of  the  Federal  Property  Utilization  Branch.  In 
the  Washington  central  office,  the  services  of  a  number  of  business 
men  were  engaged  for  the  purpose  of  determining  policies  to  be  fol- 
lowed in  the  disposal  of  surplus  property.  Much  revamping  and 
expanding  of  the  surplus  property  organization  in  the  regional  offices 
were  also  carried  on. 

In  order  to  insure  adequate  facilities  for  handling  the  disposal  of 
consumer  goods,  attention  was  focused  first  on  installing  in  each  of 
the  eleven  regional  offices  of  the  Procurement  Division  a  system  of 
inventory  accounting  to  provide  the  complete  and  detailed  informa- 
tion prerequisite  to  efficient  disposal  of  property.     By  the  end  of  the 

'  Revised. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       125 

year  the  Office  of  Surplus  Property  was  in  position  to  account  for  and 
dispose  of  the  increasingly  larger  quantities  of  property  being  turned 
over  to  it.  It  had  laid  a  solid  foundation  on  which  to  build  the 
organization  necessary  to  handle  the  still  larger  inventories  which, 
it  was  anticipated,  would  become  its  responsibility  in  the  future. 

National  Youth  Administration. — All  equipment,  material,  and 
supplies  of  the  National  Youth  Administration  were  placed  in  the 
custody  of  the  Procurement  Division  during  the  year,  in  accordance 
with  an  act  approved  July  12,  1943  (57  Stat.  539).  The  act  per- 
mitted any  non-Federal  vocational  education  authority  which  was 
using  any  of  it  on  June  30,  1943,  to  continue  to  do  so  during  the  war 
and  for  a  period  not  to  exceed  6  months  thereafter.  The  act  further 
provided  that  the  Director  of  Procurement  could  lend  any  of  the 
remaining  property  not  required  by  a  Federal  agency  to  any  non- 
Federal  vocational  education  authority  which  applied  for  it  prior  to 
October  12,  1943,  upon  certification  by  the  United  States  Commis- 
sioner of  Education  that  the  property  was  to  be  used  for  vocational 
education  purposes. 

Under  regulations  issued  to  carry  out  the  provisions  of  the  act, 
approximately  2,000  loans  were  made  to  non-Federal  vocational 
education  authorities.  About  200  completed  facilities  consisting  of 
residence  centers,  shops,  and  shop  equipment  were  transferred  to 
Federal  agencies.  Another  act  of  Congress  approved  June  28,  1944 
(58  Stat.  547),  provided  that  any  personal  property  belonging  to  the 
National  Youth  Administration  and  lent  to  any  public  school  system 
or  institution  of  higher  learning  within  any  State  should  become  the 
property  of  such  school  system  or  institution.  Plans  were  initiated 
accordingly  to  confirm  title  to  this  property. 

Renegotiation  of  war  contracts 

By  authority  of  the  law  directing  the  renegotiation  of  contracts, 
the  Procurement  Division  continued  to  renegotiate  war  contracts  con- 
summated by  the  Division,  and  cooperated  with  the  War  and  Navy 
Departments  and  the  United  States  Maritime  Commission,  and  when 
the  predominate  interests  were  those  of  the  Procurement  Division 
renegotiated  contracts  for  those  agencies.  (See  also  pages  21  and 
117  of  this  report.) 

Strategic  and  critical  materials 

Acquisitions  of  strategic  and  critical  materials  during  the  year  were 
represented  by  purchases  in  the  amount  of  $7,024,540,  bringing  to 
$55,775,716  "■  the  total  purchases  from  the  inception  of  the  program. 
These  purchases  were  authorized  by  the  act  of  June  7,  1939  (Public 
No.  117),  and  consist  of  those  materials  for  which  dependence  must

be  placed  on  sources  outside  the  United  States,  or  of  which  the 
domestic  supply  is  inadequate  to  meet  war  demands.  The  purchases 
of  strategic  and  critical  materials  in  1944  were  $2,142,867  more  than 
in  1943. 

A  discussion  of  the  other  activities  of  the  Procurement  Division 
will  be  found  beginning  on  page  252. 

FOREIGN  FUNDS  CONTROL  ACTIVITIES 

The  Treasury  Department,  through  Foreign  Funds  Control,  has 
been  primarily  responsible  for  planning  and  executing  this  Govern- 
ment's program  of  financial  warfare  against  our  enemies.  In  carrying 
out  this  program  Foreign  Funds  Control  has  vigorously  pm'sued  the 
vital  objectives  of  weakening  the  enemy's  financial  resources,  prevent- 
ing financial  operations  contrary  to  our  war  ejffort,  and  facilitating 
financial  operations  supporting  the  war  effort  of  the  United  Nations. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  Foreign  Funds  Control  continued  activi- 
ties previously  begun  and  expanded  others.  The  Control  continued 
to  freeze  the  $8.5  billions  in  assets  held  within  the  United  States  by 
persons  in  enemy,  enemy-occupied,  and  European  neutral  countries 
and  to  regulate  the  use  to  which  such  assets  may  be  put;  and  to 
investigate  and  regulate  international  financial  transactions.  Main- 
tenance of  import  controls  over  securities  and  currency  was  continued, 
thus  closing  United  States  markets  to  Axis  loot.  Cooperation  was 
given  through  the  State  Department  to  the  other  American  Repubhcs 
to  secure  the  adoption  by  them  of  effective  controls  over  enemy 
property  and  transactions.  The  Control  continued  also  to  partici- 
pate in  the  administration  of  the  Proclaimed  List  of  Certain  Blocked 
Nationals  by  which  persons  in  foreign  countries  who  are  assisting  the 
enemy  are  designated  enemy  "nationals",  and,  pursuant  to  which, 
measures  are  taken  to  destroy  their  financial  and  economic  power  and 
abihty  to  contribute  to  the  enemy's  war  effort.  Administration  of 
this  Government's  controls  over  financial  and  commercial  communi- 
cations with  enemy  nationals  was  continued;  and  other  appropriate 
measures  were  adopted  which  were  designed  to  interfere  with  enemy 
operations  in  European  neutral  countries  and  to  prevent  the  enemy 
from  obtaining  foreign  exchange  through  the  sale  in  neutral  countries 
of  gold,  securities,  currency,  or  other  assets. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  import  controls  were  expanded  to 
cover  the  importation  and  exportation  of  checks,  drafts,  etc.  (Gen- 
eral Ruling  No.  5-A).  In  cooperation  with  the  American  Commission 
for  the  Protection  and  Salvage  of  Artistic  and  Historic  Monuments 
in  War  Areas,  steps  were  taken  to  make  certain  that  the  Axis  would 
not  be  able  to  dispose  of  its  looted  art  objects  in  the  United  States 
market  (Treasury  Decision  No.  51072).  Steps  were  taken  to  bring 
additional  funds  under  control  tlirough  requiring  the  disclosure  of 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       127 

beneficial  owners  before  transactions  in  certain  omnibus  accounts 
were  licensed  (General  Ruling  No.  17).  Following  the  establishment 
of  civil  administrations  in  Sicily  and  Italy  arrangements  were  made 
to  permit  living  expenses  remittances  to  those  areas  completely  liber- 
ated (General  License  No.  32-A  and  amendments). 

During  the  year  the  Control  and  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks,  acting 
as  field  agents,  acted  upon  nearly  98,000  applications,  14  percent  of 
which  were  denied.  In  addition,  hundreds  of  thousands  of  relatively 
"safe"  transactions  were  permitted  to  be  effected  under  various 
general  and  blanket  licenses  which  have  been  issued  to  avoid  placing 
any  unnecessary  burdens  on  legitimate  business  activities.  One 
such  General  License,  for  instance,  authorizes  all  transactions  inci- 
dent to  trading  with  persons  in  the  "Generally  Licensed  trade  area" 
which  consists  of  the  American  Republics;  the  British  Commonwealth 
of  Nations;  the  Union  of  Soviet  Socialist  Republics; the  Faroe  Islands; 
the  Netherlands  West  Indies;  the  Belgian  Congo  and  Ruanda-Urundi ; 
Greenland;  Iceland;  Syria  and  Lebanon;  New  Hebrides;  and  French 
Equatorial  Africa  (General  License  No.  53).  Also  during  the  year 
there  was  taken  a  census  of  American-owned  Property  Abroad  which 
has  shown  the  existence  of  such  property  valued  at  more  than  $14.4 
billions. 

In  addition,  in  connection  with  the  liberation  of  territory  formerly 
under  enemy  domination,  the  Treasury  Department  discharges  broad 
responsibilities  with  respect  to  the  financial  aspects  of  the  overseas 
operations  of  our  military  and  naval  forces.  The  Department  par- 
ticipates in  the  planning  and  preparation  of  fisc  il,  financial,  banking, 
and  property  control  measures  which  must  be  applied  in  the  various 
theaters  of  war  and  also  integrates  this  Government's  financial  and 
economic  control  measures  with  those  established  by  the  military 
authorities  or  by  post-liberation  governments.  In  this  connection 
detailed  research  in  this  country  is  carried  on  with  respect  to  the 
important  financial  interests  in  the  countries  involved. 

WAR  CONTRIBUTIONS 

Conditional  gifts 

Under  the  Second  War  Powers  Act,  approved  March  27,  1942,  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  through  June  30,  1944,  accepted  1,320 
donations  of  money,  in  the  amount  of  $4,673,601.87,  for  specific  pur- 
poses in  furtherance  of  the  war  program.  Of  this  amount,  $4,641,- 
480.05  was  covered  into  the  Treasury  by  warrants  as  of  June  30,  1944. 
The  balance,  $32,121.82,  represents  checks  which  must  be  cleared 
through  banking  channels  before  the  funds  are  available  for  covering 
into  the  Treasury.  The  donations  in  most  instances  were  made  by 
groups  of  individuals.     A  summarization  follows.

In  addition,  donations  of  property  accepted  during  the  fiscal  year 
1944  for  use  in  connection  with  the  various  war  activities  included 
automobiles,  boats,  small  firearms,  medical  equipment  and  supplies, 
training  equipment  and  films,  radio  equipment,  patent  rights,  indus- 
trial machinery,  raw  silk  and  fabricated  textile  products,  recreation 
facilities  and  equipment,  musical  instruments,  phonograph  records, 
cigarettes,  and  various  other  items.  The  property  accepted  had  a 
total  estimated  valuation  of  $333,554.70,  and  in  practically  all  in- 
stances was  received  directly  by  the  war  agency  concerned. 

Unconditional  donations 

From  December  7,  1941,  the  day  on  which  Pearl  Harbor  was  at- 
tacked, through  June  30,  1944,  unconditional  donations  numbering 
17,054  and  amounting  to  $1,079,015.99  were  received  and  covered 
into  the  Treasury  by  warrants.  The  17,054  donations  do  not  repre- 
sent the  total  number  of  donors  inasmuch  as  the  donations  of  approxi- 
mately 25,500  individuals  were  grouped  and  treated  as  single  dona- 
tions; for  example,  7,000  employees  of  an  aeronautical  corporation 
sent  in  individual  checks  which  were  recorded  as  one  donation.  Also 
numerous  donations  of  war  savings  stamps  from  individuals  in  groups 
have  been  received  and  recorded  as  single  contributions.  These  gifts 
of  stamps  were  received  from  groups  ranging  from  ten  to  more  than 
a  thousand  individuals  in  number,  and  from  $5  to  $600  in  amount. 
Group  donations  of  stamps  and  money  came  from  students  of  elemen- 
tary and  high  schools,  members  of  labor  and  fraternal  organizations, 
employees  of  private  concerns,  Army  and  Nav}^  personnel,  war 
plants,  etc. 

In  addition,  from  December  7,  1941,  through  June  30,  1944,  a  total 
of  $464,140.44  was  realized  and  covered  from  the  sale  of  scrap  alumi- 
num donated  to  the  United  States  for  war  purposes. 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY  OF   THE  TREASURY  129 

SALARY  STABILIZATION 

Provision  for  stabilization  of  salaries  was  included  by  Congress  in 
the  general  wartime  program  to  stabilize  the  cost  of  living.  The 
Treasury  Department  through  the  Salary  Stabilization  Unit  of  the 
Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  continued  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  to 
stabilize  salaries  tlirough  action  taken  upon  requests  received  from 
employers  for  adjustments  in  compensation  of  their  employees.  Re- 
quests for  salary  and  bonus  adjustments  on  hand  July  1,  1943,  num- 
bered 19,383;  during  the  year  251,608  requests  were  received  and 
257,491  rulings  were  issued,  leaving  13,500  requests  on  hand  June  30, 
1944.  Certain  details  of  these  cases  and  other  types  handled  are 
covered  in  the  administrative  report  of  the  Salary  Stabilization  Unit 
beginning  on  page  241. 

During  the  year  the  regulations  were  clarified  and  amended.  The 
authorizing  legislation,  together  with  major  Executive  orders  and  reg- 
ulations subsequently  published  are  summarized  in  the  paragraphs 
which  follow. 

Congress  by  act  of  October  2,  1942,  amending  the  Emergency  Price 
Control  Act  of  1942,  authorized  and  directed  the  President  to  issue 
a  general  order  stabilizing  prices,  wages,  salaries,  and  other  factors 
affecting  the  cost  of  living  and  to  provide  for  making  such  adjust- 
ments therein  as  he  found  necessary  to  aid  in  the  effective  prosecu- 
tion of  the  war  or  to  correct  gross  inequities. 

Pursuant  to  this  authority,  the  President  on  October  3,  1942,  is- 
sued Executive  Order  No.  9250  outlining  the  policies  to  be  followed 
in  the  administration  of  the  act,  and  delegating  to  various  agencies 
his  authority  thereunder.  By  that  order  he  created  the  Office  of 
Economic  Stabilization  and  appointed  a  Director  thereof.  The  Di- 
rector, by  regulations  dated  October  27,  1942,  approved  by  the 
President,  delegated  the  National  War  Labor  Board  and  the  Com- 
missioner of  Internal  Revenue  as  his  agents  to  administer  the  wage 
and  salary  policies.  By  an  amendment  to  his  regulations,  approved 
by  the  President  on  November  30,  1942,  the  Director  also  delegated 
the  Secretary  of  Agriculture  as  one  of  his  agents.  Regulations, 
Treasury  Decision  5186,  outlining  the  policies  and  procedure  to  be 
followed  with  respect  to  employees  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the 
Commissioner  were  promulgated  on  December  2,  1942. 

On  April  8,  1943,  the  President  issued  Executive  Order  No.  9328 
which  provided  for  certain  changes  in  policies  and  procedure.  As  a 
result  of  this  Executive  order,  the  Director,  on  May  12,  1943,  issued 
a  clarifying  statement,  and  on  August  28,  1943,  completely  revised 
the  amended  regulations,  formulating  the  program  more  specifically 
and  outlining  the  policies  and  procedures  to  be  followed  with  respect 
to  salary  and  wage  adjustments.  The  primary  prerequisites  to  ap- 
proval of  salary  and  wage  adjustments  are  that  the  increases  shall 

613185—45 10 


130       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

not  raise  salary  levels  which  existed  on  September  15,  1942,  and  shall 
not  increase  the  level  of  production  costs  appreciably,  or  furnish  the 
basis  either  to  increase  prices  or  to  resist  otherwise  justifiable  reduc- 
tions in  such  prices. 

Authority  over  wage  adjustments  by  the  Na,tional  War  Labor 
Board,  as  expressed  in  Executive  Order  No.  9250,  was  reaffirmed  by 
these  regulations.  Jurisdiction  over  salary  adjustments  is  divided 
between  the  Board,  the  Commissioner  of  Internal  Revenue,  and  the 
War  Food  Administrator,  jurisdiction  under  the  latter  having  been 
transferred  from  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture.  The  Commissioner  of 
Internal  Revenue  was  given  authority  over  all  adjustments  to  salaries 
in  excess  of  $5,000  per  annum,  and  adjustments  to  salaries  of  execu- 
tive, administrative,  and  professional  employees  under  $5,000  per 
annum  who  are  not  represented  in  their  relations  with  their  employer 
by  duly  recognized  or  certified  labor  organizations,  and  who  do  not 
come  within  the  classification  of  "agricultural  labor."  Wages  and 
salaries  of  employees  engaged  in  "agricultural  labor"  were  placed 
under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  War  Food  Administrator. 

Subsequently,  the  Commissioner  promulgated  amended  regulations. 
Treasury  Decision  5295,  which  were  approved  on  September  4,  1943. 
Under  the  regulations  as  amended  certain  salary  increases  may  be 
granted  without  appro"val  of  the  Commissioner  of  Internal  Revenue, 
provided  they  are  made  in  accordance  with  a  salary  agreement  or 
salary  rate  schedide  in  effect  prior  to  October  3,  1942,  or  approved 
by  the  Commissioner  thereafter,  and  as  a  result  of  (a)  individual  pro- 
motions or  reclassifications,  (b)  merit  increases  within  established 
salary  rate  ranges,  (c)  operation  of  an  established  plan  of  salary  in- 
creases based  on  length  of  service,  (d)  increased  productivity  under 
incentive  plans,  (e)  operation  of  a  trainee  system,  and  (/)  such  other 
reasons  as  may  be  prescribed  in  rulings  or  regulations  promulgated  by 
the  Commissioner  from  time  to  time.  Decreases  in  salary  rates  below 
$5,000  cannot  be  made  without  prior  approval  of  the  Commissioner 
unless  the  employee  is  demoted  to  a  position  carrying  a  lower  rate  of 
pay.  Adjustments  which  may  be  made  with  approval  of  the  Com- 
missioner are  those  necessary  (a)  to  correct  substandards  of  living, 
(b)  to  compensate  in  accordance  with  the  Little  Steel  Formula,  (c)  to 
adjust  salaries  up  to  the  minimum  of  the  tested  and  going  rates  paid 
for  the  same  work  in  the  most  nearly  comparable  plants  or  establish- 
ments in  the  same  labor  market,  and  (d)  to  permit  individual  promo- 
tions to  higher  positions,  reclassification  of  jobs,  to  recognize  increased 
duties  and  responsibilities,  individual  merit  increases,  length  of  service 
increases,  incentive  payments  and  the  like,  provided  the  adjustments 
do  not  increase  the  level  of  production  costs  appreciably  or  furnish 
the  basis  for  increased  prices  or  resistance  to  justifiable  reductions  in 
prices.    Adjustments  may  be  made  also  to  maintain  proper  differen-

tials  in  pay  rates  of  employees  in  immediately  interrelated  job  classi- 
fications and,  in  rare  and  unusual  cases,  where  the  critical  needs  of 
war  production  so  require. 

An  act  of  Congress,  approved  June  30,  1944  (Public  Law  383), 
extending  the  act  of  October  2,  1942,  stipulated  that  its  provisions 
should  terminate  on  June  30,  1945,  and  contained  one  amendment 
affecting  salary  stabilization.  Section  4  as  amended  now  provides 
that  the  findings  and  certification  of  any  agency  provided  for  by  the 
act  shall  be  final  with  respect  to  changes  affecting  wages  or  salaries 
in  any  dispute  case  between  employees  and  carriers  subject  to  the 
Railway  Labor  Act,  as  amended. 

ESTIMATES  ,OF  RECEIPTS 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  is  required  each  year  to  prepare  and 
submit  in  his  annual  report  to  Congress  estimates  of  the  public 
revenue  for  the  current  fiscal  year  and  for  the  fiscal  year  next  ensuing 
(Public  No.  129,  February  26,  1907).  These  estimates  are  now 
made  in  December  of  each  year  on  the  basis  of  legislation  existing 
at  the  time  of  making  the  estimates.  The  estimates  here  presented 
are  consistent  with  the  program  of  Government  expenditures  out- 
lined in  the  Budget  of  the  United  States  Government  for  the  fiscal 
year  ending  June  30,  1946. 

The  details  of  estimated  and  actual  receipts  are  shown  in  table 
111  beginning  on  page  837.  Thi'oughout  the  tables  shown  in  this 
exposition  the  figures  are  rounded  and  will  not  necessarily  add  to 
totals. 

Total  and  net  receipts 

Total  receipts,  general  and  special  accounts,  are  estimated  (on  the 
daily  Treasury  statement  basis)  in  the  amounts  of  $47,022.8  millions 
in  the  fiscal  year  1945  and  $42,854.8  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1946. 
The  estimated  total  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1945  exceed  by  $1,614.3 
millions  the  actual  total  receipts  of  $45,408.4  millions  in  the  fiscal 
year  1944,  while  estimated  total  receipts  of  $42,854.8  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1946  represent  a  decrease  of  $4,168.0  millions  from  the 
estimated  total  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1945. 

Net  receipts,  general  and  special  accounts,  are  estimated  (on  the 
daily  Treasury  statement  basis)  in  the  amounts  of  $45,729.7  millions 
in  the  fiscal  year  1945  and  $41,254.9  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1946. 
The  estimated  net  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1945  exceed  by  $1,580.8 
millions  the  actual  net  receipts  of  $44,148.9  millions  in  the  fiscal 
year  1944,  while  estimated  net  receipts  of  $41,254.9  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1946  represent  a  decrease  of  $4,474.8  millions  from  the 
estimated  net  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1945.

Several  shifts  in  the  relative  importance  of  the  major  tax  sources 
in  the  period  from  the  fiscal  year  1943  through  the  fiscal  year  1946 
are  shown  in  the  above  table:  (1)  The  individual  income  tax  shifts 
to  the  position  of  greatest  importance  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  because 
of  the  nonrecurring  increases  arising  from  the  transition  to  a  current 
payment  basis;  (2)  by  the  fiscal  year  1946,  however,  corporation 
income  and  excess  profits  taxes  represent  the  largest  percentage  since 
the  lower  level  of  incomes  reflected  in  individual  income  tax  receipts 
does  not  affect  the  corporate  tax  receipts  until  a  year  later;  (3)  the 
relative  stability  of  excise  tax  receipts,  included  under  miscellaneous 
internal  revenue,  and  employment  tax  receipts  causes  them,  in 
spite  of  steady  absolute  increases  over  the  period,  to  appear  percent- 
agewise of  less  importance  in  the  two  years  of  larger  aggregate  tax 
receipts,  namely,  the  fiscal  years  1944  and  1945;  (4)  miscellaneous 
receipts  are  of  greater  significance,  both  absolutely  and  relatively, 
in  the  fiscal  year  1944  than  in  other  years  of  the  period  because  of 
the  recoveries  of  excessive  profits  on  renegotiated  war  contracts, 
included  in  this  item,  which  are  expected  to  be  at  their  peak  in  this 
fiscal  year;  (5)  customs  receipts  continue  to  decline  in  relative 
importance.

the  fiscal  year  1944  are  compared  by  major  sources  in  the  following

While  the  fiscal  year  1945  receipts  are  estimated  to  be  larger  than 
the  actual  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1944,  there  is  a  divergence  of 
trend  by  tax  sources.  The  major  items  of  increase  include  the  excise 
taxes,  where  rate  increases  and  the  elimination  of  Government 
exemptions  increase  receipts,  and  corporation  taxes,  which  are  stdl 
collected  a  year  later  than  the  incurrence  of  the  liability.  The  in- 
crease m  tax  receipts  from  larger  corporation  incomes  more  than  off- 
sets the  decrease  in  the  amounts  estimated  to  be  received  as  recoveries 
from  renegotiation  of  war  contracts,  which  decline  as  experience  with 
war  purchases  makes  for  more  efficient  procurement.  A  partially 
offsetting  decrease  occurred  in  the  case  of  the  individual  income  tax 
where  the  fiscal  year  1944  receipts  were  more  affected  than  those  of 
the  fiscal  year  1945  by  the  abnormal  bunching  of  receipts  due  to  the 
transition  to  a  pay-as-you-go  basis.

Individual  income  tax  receipts  of  $18,385.6  millions  are  again  the 
most  important  tax  source  although  smaller  in  absolute  amount  by 
$1,393.6  millions  than  those  of  the  preceding  year.  The  abnormal 
bunching  of  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  in  connection  with  going 
on  a  pay-as-you-go  basis  arose  chiefly  from  the  following  circum- 
stances: 


134 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


(1)  The  portion  of  the  nonrecurring  offset  to  the  remitted  1942 
liabihties  (i.  e.,  payment  on  "unforgiven  tax"),  estimated  at  $900 
miUions  in  the  fiscal  year  1945,  is  $400  millions  less  than  the  amount 
estimated  to  have  been  received  in  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

(2)  The  payments  in  the  first  half  of  the  calendar  year  1943  in 
settlement  of  part  of  the  calendar  year  1942  liabilities,  together  with 
amounts  withheld  on  1943  salaries  and  wages  at  Victory  tax  with- 
holding rates,  were  much  smaller  than  would  have  been  received  if 
the  current  law  had  been  in  effect  during  that  time  interval.  These 
low  payments  in  partial  liquidation  of  1943  liabilities  were  received 
in  the  fiscal  year  1943.  Fiscal  year  1944  collections  were  therefore 
large  in  a  nonrecurring  way  because  they  included  the  balance  of 
the  calendar  year  1943  liability  payments  which  were  abnormally 
large. 

Corporation  income  and  excess  profits  taxes. — An  increase  of  $1,794.5 
millions  is  shown  from  this  source,  the  details  of  which  are  given  in

Receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1945  from  corporation  taxes  are  esti- 
mated to  provide  the  wartime  peak  from  this  tax  source.  Following 
the  conversion  of  plant  from  peacetime  to  war  uses  in  the  calendar 
year  1942,  and  as  a  consequence  of  growing  wartime  Government 
expenditures,  corporate  profits  continued  to  expand  rapidly  during 
the  calendar  year  1943  and  are  estimated  to  have  nearly  maintained 
the  peak  level  in  the  calendar  year  1944.  Government  expenditures 
increased  markets  for  products  and  lowered  unit  costs  as  production 
facilities  were  used  to  a  larger  extent  of  capacity  and  as  more  experi- 
ence was  gained  both  by  corporations  and  by  labor  in  the  production 
of  new  and  unfamiliar  lines.

With  the  exception  of  the  receipts  from  the  tobacco  taxes  which  are 
adversely  affected  by  the  increased  amount  of  tax-free  withdrawals  of 
cigarettes  going  to  the  armed  forces,  the  receipts  from  every  major 
grouping  of  excise  taxes  show  an  increase  in  the  fiscal  year  1945  over 
those  of  the  preceding  year. 

The  receipts  from  liquor  taxes  are  at  a  new  peak  in  the  fiscal  year 
1945.  Supplies  of  distilled  spirits  are  more  ample  as  a  result  of  the 
resumption  of  the  distilling  of  beverage  alcohol  during  the  so-called 
"liquor  holidays."  Increased  wartime  tax  rates  on  liquors  also  con- 
tribute to  the  record  receipts. 

Following  the  passage  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  and  as  old  con- 
tracts for  delivery  expne,  the  Federal  Government  is  paying  a  tax 
on  its  purchase  of  taxable  items.  This  amount  which  the  Federal 
Government  pays  to  itself,  and  which  therefore  does  not  improve  its 
fiscal  position,  is  estimated  at  $243.2  millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1945. 
The  effect  of  the  repeal  of  these  Federal  exemptions  is  shown  almost 
entirely  in  the  receipts  from  the  manufacturers'  excise  tax  group  and 
reflects  principally  the  purchases  of  war  materials. 

In  general,  increases  in  the  receipts  from  other  excise  taxes  are 
due  to  higher  tax  rates  together  with  a  rising  volume  of  spending  by 
individuals. 

Employment  taxes. — Receipts  from  the  employment  taxes  are  dis-

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


The  tax  rates  and  the  statutory  coverage  of  the  employment  taxes 
are  the  same  in  the  two  fiscal  years  so  that  larger  amounts  of  covered 
salaries  and  wages  cause  the  increased  tax  yields.  The  receipts 
from  the  Federal  Insurance  Contributions  Act  are  appropriated  to 
the  Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insurance  trust  fund  except  for 
administrative  expenses. 

Customs. — Customs  receipts  decrease  to  $326.1  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1945  from  receipts  of  $431.3  millions  in  the  fiscal  year 
1944.  The  dominating  causes  of  changes  in  customs  receipts  are 
exigencies  of  shipping  space,  increased  duty-free  imports  of  strategic 
materials  (particularly  sugar)  under  Executive  Order  No.  9177, 
dated  May  30,  1942,  and  the  improving  domestic  supply  situation 
in  connection  with  liquors,  wool,  and  metals. 

Miscellaneous  receipts. — Miscellaneous  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year 
1945  amount  to  $3,283.1  millions,  an  increase  of  $3.0  millions  over 
comparable  receipts  in  the  preceding  year.  This  small  increase  occurs 
despite  smaller  recoveries  from  the  renegotiation  of  war  contracts  as 
the  Government  acquires  more  experience  in  procurement  pricing. 

Fiscal  year  19 46 

The  estimates  of  receipts  in  the  fiscal  years  1945  and  1946  are  com- 
pared by  major  tax  sources  in  the  following  table.

Receipts  are  expected  to  be  smaller  in  the  fiscal  year  1946  than  in 
the  fiscal  year  1945.  Alajor  sources  of  revenue  contributing  to  the 
decrease  are  (1)  the  individual  income  tax  receipts  which  are  smaller 
because  of  estimated  lower  incomes  and  because  of  the  nonrecurring 
payments  in  the  fiscal  year  1945,  (2)  the  corporation  tax  receipts 
which  are  less  because  of  lower  corporate  incomes,  and  (3)  miscel- 
laneous receipts  which  are  lower  because  of  the  decreasing  recoveries 
from  renegotiation  of  war  contracts. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


137 


Partly  offsetting  these  declines  are  increases  in  receipts  from  em- 
ployment taxes  as  a  result  of  higher  tax  rates  for  certain  of  these  taxes 
affecting  receipts  in  tlu'ee  months  of  the  fiscal  year. 

Individual  income  tax. — The  yield  of  the  individual  income  tax  in 
the  fiscal  years  1945  and  1946  is  shown  in  the  following  table.

Individual  income  tax  receipts  decrease  to  $15,109.0  millions  in  the 
fiscal  year  1946.  The  last  of  the  nonrecurring  offsets  to  the  remitted 
1942  liabilities  (i.  e.,  payment  on  "  unforgiven  tax")  will  be  paid  in  the 
fiscal  year  1945  in  an  amount  estimated  at  $900  millions.  No  corre- 
sponding amount  is  collectible  in  the  fiscal  year  1946.  This  fact, 
together  with  a  reduction  in  the  level  of  incomes  on  which  receipts  are 
based,  accounts  for  the  lower  yield  in  the  fiscal  year  1946.

Receipts  in  the  fiscal  year  1946  from  the  corporation  taxes  on  income 
are  estimated  at  $15,913.2  millions,  somewhat  below  the  $16,670.2 
millions  expected  in  the  fiscal  year  1945.  The  high  level  of  corporate 
income  attained  in  1943  is  not  expected  to  increase  even  with  the 
continued  high  level  of  Government  war  expenditures.  Costs  catch 
up  and  cut  into  corporate  profits  as  mihtary  services  create  manpower 
shortages  (leading  to  the  employment  of  less  efficient  labor,  frequently 
at  higher  hourly  rates  and  with  much  overtime),  as  machines  under 
wartime  exigencies  are  not  adequately  maintained  or  replaced,  and  as 
ceilings  prevent  selling  prices  from  rising  correspondingly.  Hence 
the  fiscal  year  1946  estimated  corporation  tax  receipts  reflecting  1944 
and  1945  corporate  incomes  are  slightly  less  than  the  receipts  arising

In  general,  a  decline  in  the  volume  of  Government  expenditures  is 
expected  to  result  in  some  reduction  in  individual  incomes,  which  will 
be  reflected  in  reduced  buying  of  various  taxable  items.  This  will  be 
offset  in  part,  however,  by  some  increase  in  the  production  and  sale 
of  other  taxable  civilian  goods,  the  supphes  of  which  have  been 
restricted  by  war  requirements. 

Estimated  revenues  in  the  fiscal  year  1946  include  an  increased 
amount  of  tax  payments  by  the  Government  on  taxable  items  pur- 
chased largely  for  war  uses,  owing  to  a  greater  tax  coverage  of 
Government  purchases  during  this  first  full  year  under  the  new  pro- 
vision of  the  tax  laws.  Collections  from  this  source,  which  represent 
no  improvement  in  the  Federal  fiscal  position,  are  estimated  at  $301.0 
millions  in  the  fiscal  year  1946,  as  compared  with  $243.2  millions  in 
the  previous  fiscal  year.  Including  this  item  of  increase,  there  is  a 
fairly  large  increase  in  revenues  from  the  manufacturers'  excise  tax 
group,  which  increase  is  more  than  offset  by  decreases  in  other  sources 
of  excise  taxes,  so  that  the  excise  tax  receipts  as  a  whole  show  a 
decrease.

1  Not  classified  as  an  employment  tax  under  the  Internal  Revenue  Code. 

The  estimates  of  receipts  under  the  Federal  Insurance  Contribu- 
tions Act  assume  existing  law,  that  is,  that  the  freeze  in  tax  rates  will 
not  be  continued  in  the  calendar  year  1946  but  that  the  rates  will  ad- 
vance to  2}^  percent  on  employer  and  2}^  percent  on  employee.  If 
this  increase  were  not  effective  the  fiscal  year  1946  receipts  would  be 
reduced  by  $434.0  millions. 

Customs. — Wliile  numerous  items  of  customs  receipts  are  expected 
to  vary  between  the  fiscal  years  1945  and  1946,  total  receipts  from  this 
source  in  each  of  these  years  are  estimated  at  approximately  $326 
millions. 

Miscellaneous  receipts. — Miscellaneous  receipts  in  the  fiscal  year 
1946  are  expected  to  be  $2,919.4  millions,  a  decrease  of  $363.7  millions 
from  the  previous  year.  Smaller  recoveries  from  the  renegotiation  of 
war  contracts  account  for  the  decrease  since  other  items  included  in 
miscellaneous  receipts  increase  in  the  aggregate. 


ESTIMATES  OF  EXPENDITURES 


Actual  expenditures  for  the  fiscal  year  1944  and  estimates  for  the

Office  of  Commissioner  of  Accounts 

Budgetary  administration  and  financial  reporting. — Under  Executive 
Order  No.  8512,  dated  August  13,  1940,  prescribing  regulations  for  the 
purpose  of  improving  budgetary  administration  and  financial  report- 
ing, the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  with  the  approval  of  the  Director 
of  the  Bureau  of  the  Budget,  was  directed  to  estabfish  (a)  uniform 
accounting  terminology,  (b)  uniform  classifications  of  assets  and 
liabilities,  and  revenues  and  expenditures,  and  (c)  uniform  standards 
for  the  valuation  of  assets  and  the  determination  of  liabilities  and  the 
treatment  of  revenues  and  expenditures  in  relation  thereto;  and  to 
maintain  a  complete  system  of  summary  accounts  through  which 
the  financial  data  of  the  various  agencies  will  be  coordinated  and 
integrated. 

143 


144  'ORT   OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 

On  March  3,  1942,  the  order  was  amended  by  Executive  Order  No. 
9084,  which  provides  that  prior  to  estal)Ushing  uniform  terminology, 
classifications,  principles  and  standards,  they  be  referred  to  the 
Comptroller  General  of  the  Ignited  States  for  consideration  and  deter- 
mination as  to  wheth(>r  they  are  in  conflict  with  the  forms,  systems, 
and  procedures  prescribed  by  the  Comptroller  General  as  required  by 
section  309  of  the  Budget  and  Accounting  Act 

The  President,  in  a  letter  dated  April  7,  1944,  requested  the  Ad- 
ministrator of  the  Foreign  Economic  Administration  to  establish  a 
clearing  house  which  would  obtain  information  on  foreign  transac- 
tions— including  transactions  on  account  of  international  aid,  relief 
in  liberated  areas,  procurement  abroad,  loans  and  financial  aid,  in- 
ventories, information  concerning  military  and  nonmilitary  mstalla- 
tions,  improvements,  and  stock  piles  abroad,  and  all  other  govern- 
mental outlays  and  disbursements  abroad  as  well  as  receipts  from 
abroad.  The  President's  letter  further  diiected  that  the  facilities 
established  by  Executive  Order  No.  8512,  as  amended,  should  be 
utilized  whenever  appropriate  in  collecting  information  on  cash  dis- 
bursements, receipts,  and  other  related  financial  transactions  abroad. 

Pursuant  to  the  above  request,  the  Bureau  of  Accounts  collaborated 
with  the  Foreign  Economic  Administration  in  the  development  of  a 
Budget-Treasury  regulation  relating  to  reports  of  cash  transactions 
abroad. 

Activities  under  Reorganization  Plan  No.  III. — Several  additional 
surveys  have  been  made  during  the  fiscal  year,  including  a  study  to 
revise  the  procedure  for  depositing  into  the  Treasury  funds  collected 
by  other  departments  and  agencies  and  a  study  of  recording  and  report- 
ing lend-lease  purchases  and  classification  of  purchases  in  the  Procure- 
ment Division,  Treasury  Department. 

In  lieu  of  depositing  funds  with  the  Chief  Disbursing  Officer  by 
Government  agencies  in  Washington,  D.  C,  the  revised  procedure 
provides  for  the  deposit  of  collections  directly  with  the  Office  of  the 
Treasurer  of  the  United  States  and  for  the  transmission  of  copies  of 
documents  to  the  Chief  Disbursing  Officer.  This  arrangement  will 
meet  the  accounting  requirements  of  the  General  Accomiting  Office. 
A  test  of  several  departments  and  agencies  shows  that  the  extension 
of  the  revised  procedure  will  save  manpower  and  reduce  the  number 
of  certificates  of  deposit  to  be  handled. 

The  lend-lease  procedure  was  modified  so  that  each  requisition 
with  all  its  supporting  contracts,  invoices,  and  transfers  constitutes  a 
separate  account.  This  reduced  considerably  the  amoimt  of  tabulat- 
ing work  necessary  to  the  preparation  of  the  lend-lease  reports  and 
reduced  the  time  necessary  to  prepare  such  reports  by  approximately 
65  percent. 

Other  studies  were  also  made  such  as  (a)  the  establishment  of  a 
uniform  individual  earnings  record  so  that  at  present  the  entire 
Treasury  Department  maintains  the  employee's  earnings  account 
on  the  same  basis,  and  (b)  the  collaboration  with  the  General  Account- 
ing Office  in  formulating  plans  to  establish  a  branch  office  of  the  Gen- 
eral Accounting  Office  in  New  York  for  the  purpose  of  effecting  a 
current  audit  of  the  accounts  of  the  disbursing  officer  of  the  War 
Department  issuing  Army  dependency  benefit  checks. 

Daily  Statement  of  the  United  States  Treasury. — Beginning  with  the 
month  of  July  1943,  receipts  horn  income  taxes  withheld  under  the 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       145 

Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943,  approved  June  9,  1943,  were 
classified  separately  in  the  daily  Treasury  statement.  During  the 
fiscal  year  1944  there  were  several  changes  in  classifications  and  pres- 
entation of  the  daily  Treasury  statement.  Executive  Order  No. 
9280  as  amended  by  Executive  Orders  Nos.  9322,  9334,  and  9392  pro- 
vided for  the  reorganization  and  consolidation  of  certain  bureaus 
within  the  Department  of  Agriculture  and  accordingly  there  were

AiJjprojyriations  and  expenditures  under  the  Social  Security  Act. —  The 
Social  Security  Act,  approved  August  14,  1935,  as  amended  (42  U.  S.  C, 
Ch.  7),  provides  for  the  establishment  of  a  system  of  Federal  old-age 
and  survivors  benefits,  and  for  grants  to  the  several  States  to  enable 
them  to  make  adequate  provision  for  aged  and  blind  persons;  needy, 
dependent,  and  crippled  children;  maternal  and  child  welfare;  public 
health  services;  and  the  administration  of  State  unemployment  com- 
pensation laws. 

Section  201  (a)  of  the  Social  Security  Act  Amendments  of  1939, 
approved  August  10,  1939,  makes  permanent  appropriations  to  the 
Federal  old-age  and  survivors  insurance  trust  fund  for  the  fiscal  year

ment taxes  received  under  the  Federal  Insurance  Contributions  Act 
and  covered  into  the  General  Fund  of  the  Treasury. 

The  amounts  appropriated  through  June  30,  1944,  under  the  various

Colorado  River  Dam  fund.- — The  Colorado  River  Dam  fund  was 
established  under  the  act  of  December  21,  1928,  which  provided  for 
the  construction  of  works  commonly  referred  to  as  the  Boulder  Canyon 
project.  All  revenues  and  expenditures  pertaining  to  the  fund  are 
under  the  direction  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Interior. 

Under  an  act  of  Congress  approved  July  19,  1940  (54  Stat.  774), 
the  Secretar}^  of  the  Interior  was  authorized  to  promulgate  and  to  put 
into  effect  charges  for  electrical  energy  generated  at  the  dam  site. 
The  act  further  provides  that  the  receipts  from  these  charges  be  used 
to  meet  costs  of  operation  and  maintenance;  to  repay  to  the  Treasury, 
with  interest,  the  advances  made  to  the  fund  for  the  project;  to 
provide  $300,000  annually  to  each  of  the  States  wherein  the  project 
is  located,  namely,  Arizona  and  Nevada,  beginning  with  the  year  of 
operation  ended  May  31,  1938;  and  to  transfer  $500,000  annually  to 
the  Colorado  River  development  fund  beginning  with  the  year  of 
operation  ended  May  31,  1938. 

The  act  states  that  the  first  $25,000,000  of  advances  made  by  the 
Treasury  to  the  Colorado  River  Dam  fund  is  an  allocation  for  flood 
control,  and  repayment  may  be  deferred  for  50  years  after  date  of 
receipt  by  the  fund  of  such  advances,  that  is,  to  June  1,  1987,  and 
]-epayments  shall  be  made  at  that  time  in  the  manner  Congress  shall 
determine.  For  this  reason,  this  sum  of  $25,000,000  is  not  included 
under  the  caption  "Advances"  in  the  statement  below. 

The  act  further  stipulates  that  interest  charges  for  purposes  of 
advances  and  reimbursements  shall  be  computed  at  the  rate  of  3 
percent,  in  lieu  of  the  4  percent  rate  specified  in  previous  legislation. 
The  statement  which  follows  is  on  an  operating  year  basis  and  reflects 
the  necessary  revisions  required  under  the  act  approved  July  19,1940

Division  of  Bookkeeping  and  Warrants 

The  Division  of  Bookkeeping  and  Warrants,  in  the  name  of  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  issues  all  warrants  on  the  Treasurer  of 
the  United  States,  and  under  section  10  of  the  act  of  July  31,  1894 
(5  U.  S.  C.  255),  maintains  the  official  accounts  relating  to  the  receipt, 
appropriation,  and  expenditure  of  the  public  moneys,  covering  all

tains the  necessary  appropriation  accounts  in  its  ledgers;  it  issues 
warrants  for  placing  funds  to  the  credit  of  disbursing  officers,  for  the 
payment  by  the  Treasury  of  claims  settled  by  the  General  Accounting 
Office,  and  for  covering  into  the  Treasury  the  revenues  and  receipts  of 
the  Government.  The  Division  also  compiles  and  publishes  an  annual 
digest  of  the  appropriations  made  by  Congress.  The  volume  of  work 
performed  in  the  Division  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  was  increased 
by  war  activities. 

Donations  accepted  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  under  the 
Second  War  Powers  Act,  1942,  are  shown  in  the  table  on  page  128. 

Financial  rejwrts. — There  is  compiled  and  published,  in  accordance 
with  U.  S.  C.  title  5,  section  264,  an  annual  Combined  Statement  of 
Receipts,  Expenditures,  and  Balances  of  the  United  States  Govern- 
ment, designating  the  amounts  of  receipts,  whenever  practicable,  by 
ports,  districts,  and  States,  and  the  expenditures  by  each  separate 
head  of  appropriation.  This  report  is  required  to  be  submitted  to 
the  Congress  on  the  first  day  of  the  regular  session  in  each  year. 

Other  financial  statements  pertaining  to  the  receipts,  appropria- 
tions, and  expenditures  of  the  Government  and  its  various  agencies 
are  prepared  periodically  during  the  year  for  inclusion  in  the  daily 
Treasury  statement,  the  monthly  Treasury  Bulletin,  and  the  Annual 
Report  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  a  monthly  combined  statement  covering 
information  with  respect  to  the  financial  condition  of  Government 
corporations  and  credit  agencies  was  prepared  and  published  in  the 
daily  Treasury  statement  on  the  last  day  of  each  month.  Beginning 
with  the  fiscal  year  1945  this  statement  is  published  in  the  daily 
Treasury  statement  on  a  quarterly  basis.  The  statement  for  the  first 
quarter,  ended  September  30,  appeared  in  the  daily  Treasury  state- 
ment of  November  15,  1944.  Subsequent  quarterly  statements  will 
be  published  in  the  daily  Treasury  statements  of  February  15,  May  15, 
and  August  15.  Also,  a  statement  of  contiDgent  liabilities  of  the 
United  States  is  published  in  the  daily  Treasury  statement  on  the 
first  day  of  each  month.  These  statements,  as  of  June  30,  1944,  will 
be  found  as  tables  91  and  58,  beginning  on  pages  758  and  716  of  this 
report. 

A  complete  annual  financial  report  from  information  submitted  by 
Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies  under  Budget-Treasury 
Regulation  No.  2  (Executive  Order  No.  8512)  is  also  compiled. 

A  summary  report  is  compiled  monthly  from  financial  data  sub- 
mitted by  the  departments  and  agencies  under  Budget-Treasury  Reg- 
ulation No.  1  (Executive  Order  No.  8512).  This  summary  report 
consists  of  a  series  of  tables  showing  the  current  status  of  the  appro- 
priations and  contract  authorizations  available  to  each  agency  of  the 
Government  during  the  fiscal  year  in  progress.     A  section  of  the  report 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       149 

is  devoted  to  war  activities  in  order  to  give  a  complete  picture  of  that

During  the  year  the  Division  made  61,009,197  payments,  of  which 
60,031,420  were  by  check  and  977,777  in  cash.  These  payments  were 
supported  in  the  disbursing  accounts  by  7,378,940  vouchers.  The 
Division  also  received,  deposited,  and  accounted  for  10,898,153  collec- 
tion items.  Included  in  the  foregoing  are  13,310,770  items  of  pay- 
ments and  collections  for  agencies  which  have  been  established  in 
connection  with  the  war. 

Voluntary  payroll  savings  plan. — In  connection  with  the  voluntary 
payroll  allotment  plan  for  the  purchase  of  war  savings  bonds,  the 
Chief  Disbm-sing  Officer  serves  as  the  Bond  Issuing  Officer  for  depart- 
ments and  agencies  served  by  the  Division  of  Disbursement. 

During  the  year  there  was  collected  by  the  Division  of  Disburse- 
ment, through  withholdings  from  salaries  of  Federal  employees,  the 
sum  of  $123,119,305.44  on  account  of  bond  allotments,  against  which 
4,343,544  war  savings  bonds  were  issued  by  the  Division  at  the  pur- 
chase price  of  $118,248,351.61,  this  amount  having  been  covered  into 
the  Treasury  as  public  debt  receipts.  The  difference  will  be  applied 
to  the  purchase  of  bonds  to  be  issued  when  withheld  amounts  to  the 
credit  of  the  individual  employee  equal  the  purchase  price  of  a  bond 
of  the  denomination  specified  by  the  employee. 

Victory  and  income  tax  withheld.- — In  accordance  with  Public  Law 
753,  approved  October  21,  1942,  and  Public  Law  68,  approved  June 
9,  1943,  there  was  withheld  by  the  Division  of  Disbursement  from 
salaries  of  Federal  employees  on  account  of  the  Victory  and  income 
tax  an  aggregate  of  $146,983,100.59.  These  funds  were  currently 
deposited  into  a  special  deposit  account  in  the  Treasury  to  the  credit 
of  the  Chief  Disbursing  Officer,  and  were  paid  over  to  collectors  of 
internal  revenue  quarterly,  as  provided  by  regulations,  on  the  basis 
of  vouchers  submitted  by  the  administrative  agencies  concerned. 

Bonding  of  certifying  officers. — Under  the  provisions  of  Public  Law 
389,  approved  December  29,  1941,  providing  for  the  bonding  of  officers 
and  employees  authorized  to  certify  vouchers  for  payment  by  dis- 
bursing officers  in  the  executive  branch  of  the  Government,  there  were 
approximately  9,000  such  bonded  certifying  officers  at  the  close  of  the 
fiscal  year  1944. 

labulating  card  checks. — The  Division  of  Disbursement  is  cooper- 
ating in  the  Treasury  Department's  program  providing  for  the  pay- 

*  Except  civilian  pay  rolls. 


150       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

ment  by  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  of  checks  drawn  on  the  Treasurer 
of  the  United  States,  and  for  the  use  of  tabuhxting  card  checks,  m  heu 
of  the  former  style  of  paper  checks,  in  that  operation.  In  May  1943 
in  the  regional  disbursing  office  at  Chicago,  111.,  the  Division  of 
Disbursement  made  the  first  conversion  from  paper  checks  to  tabu- 
lating card  checks  for  its  regular  disbursements.  At  the  close  of  the 
fiscal  year  1944  all  checks  issued  by  the  20  regional  offices  in  the 
continental  United  States  were  on  card  checks,  except  for  a  small 
number  issued  under  disbursing  symbols  which  it  has  not  been  deemed 
feasible  to  convert.  Tlie  program  for  conversion  m  the  Washington 
office  was  started  in  May  1944  and  will  be  completed  during  the  early 
part  of  the  fiscal  year  1945.  This  change  will  result  in  transferring 
from  the  Treasurer's  office  at  Washington  to  the  Federal  Reserve 
Banks  the  payment  of  approximately  68,700,000  checks  during  the 
fiscal  year  1945,  leaving  approximately  16,000,000  checks  to  be  paid 
by  the  Treasurer's  office  at  Washington. 

Agent  cashiers.— There  are  approximately  1,800  employees  of  other 
Government  agencies  who  are  bonded  and  designated  as  agent  cashiers 
to  the  Chief  Disbursing  Officer  of  the  Treasury  Department.  The 
majority  of  these  agent  cashiers  are  located  in  the  United  States  and 
make  emergency  payments  which  it  has  been  found  impracticable  to 
make  through  the  regional  disbursing  offices  of  the  Division  of 
Disbursement  because  of  the  need  for  immediate  cash  payments. 
The  other  agent  cashiers  are  appointed  for  duty  in  various  parts  of  the 
world  in  comiection  with  war  operations. 

Staggered  pay  days  and  cash  payments  to  employees. — The  execution 
of  the  plans  for  staggered  pay  days  for  Government  employees  in  the 
District  of  Columbia  and  for  paying  those  in  lower  grades  in  cash 
rather  than  by  check,  adopted  during  1942,  has  materially  eased  the 
strain  on  local  check  cashing  facilities  and  has  been  generally  helpful 
to  the  employees.  However,  the  practice  of  paying  employees  on  the 
last  day  of  the  pay  period  continues  to  be  a  serious  administrative 
problem  which  the  Treasury,  Bureau  of  the  Budget,  and  General 
Accounting  Office  are  undertaking  to  work  out. 

Changes  in  and  simplification  of  dtijdicate  check  procedvre. — Because 
of  the  increased  number  of  duplicates  of  lost  checks  which  had  to  be 
issued  the  regulations  and  procedure  were  greatly  simplified  by  a 
revision  of  Treasury  Department  Circular  No.  327,  on  April  29,  1944, 
and  Treasury  Department  Forms  2244  and  2244a  (Bond  of  Indemnity 
and  Application  for  Duplicate  Check).  A  copy  of  the  revised  circular 
is  shown  on  page  507  of  this  report. 

Division  of  Deposits 

The  Division  of  Deposits  is  charged  with  the  administration  of 
matters  pertaining  to  the  designation  and  supervision  of  Government 
depositaries  and  the  deposit  of  Government  funds  in  such  deposi- 
taries, as  prescribed  by  the  regulations  incorporated  in  Department 
Circulars  Nos.  92  and  176,  as  amended;  the  qualification  of  Federal 
savings  and  loan  associations  as  fiscal  agents  of  the  United  States 
under  Circular  No.  568;  the  maintenance  of  a  record  of  cash  collateral 
pledged  in  lieu  of  securities  by  issuing  agents  designated  under  Cir- 
cular No.  657  for  the  sale  and  issuance  of  war  savings  bonds,  Series 
E;  and  the  execution  of  the  duties  devolving  upon  the  Secretary  of

The  number  of  changes  and  adjustments  in  insured  bank  deposi- 
taries indicates  a  substantial  increase  over ,  those  which  occurred 
during  the  fiscal  year  1943.  This  is  the  result  of  continued  requests 
for  the  designation  of  new  depositaries  and  for  authority  to  use 
existing  depositaries  by  the  War  and  Navy  Departments. 

Regulations  of  the  Treasury  covering  special  depositaries  of  public 
moneys  were  amended  December  15,  1943.  Department  Circular 
No.  92,  revised  as  of  that  date,  designates  all  incorporated  banks 
and  trust  companies  in  the  United  States,  Alaska,  Hawaii,  Puerto 
Rico,  Virgin  Islands,  and  the  Panama  Canal  Zone  as  special  deposi- 
taries, subject  to  qualification  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of 
the  circular.  The  determination  as  to  the  ma.\imum  amount  of 
deposits  for  which  a  special  depositary  is  qualified  is  committed  to 
the  several  Federal  Reserve  BanlvS  acting  under  the  direction  of  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 

Designation  of  banks  as  depositaries  Jor  withheld  taxes. — The  Current 
Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943  became  effective  July  1,  1943,  introducing 
several  changes  relating  to  the  collection  and  payment  of  income  taxes. 
The  act  provides  for  the  collection  at  the  source  of  income  taxes  on 


152      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

salaries  and  wages.  Under  regulations  issued  by  the  Treasury  the 
major  proportion  of  the  accumulated  funds  are  deposited  monthly  by 
employers  in  certain  designated  depositary  banks,  against  which  the 
depositaries  issue  their  receipts  to  the  employers.  These  receipts  are 
transmitted  with  quarterly  tax  returns  filed  with  collectors  of  internal 
revenue.  Amounts  deposited  in  the  depositaries  are  promptly  re- 
mitted to  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  for  credit  in  the  Treasurer's 
account.  This  procedure  has  made  these  funds  available  to  the  Treas- 
ury on  a  more  current  basis,  as  compared  with  the  previous  method 
of  quarterly  tax  payments. 

Department  Circular  No.  714,  as  amended,  prescribes  regulations 
governing  the  payment  through  depositary  banks  of  funds  withheld 
as  taxes  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the  act.  This  circular 
and  the  amendment  dated  July  22,  1943,  appeared  as  exhibits  66  and 
67  in  the  annual  report  for  1943.  The  circular  was  further  amended 
on  November  30,  1943,  and  April  4,  1944  (see  exhibit  60  on  page  509), 
to  provide  for  a  modification  of  the  requirements  in  connection  with 
the  signing  of  depositary  receipts  by  officers  of  depositaries,  and  to 
provide  for  a  change  in  the  basis  to  be  used  by  Federal  Reserve 
Banks  and  branches  in  computing  allotments  of  2  percent  depositary 
bonds.  Second  Series,  to  depositaries  for  withheld  taxes.  As  of  June 
30,  1944,  9,192  banks  were  qualified  as  depositaries  for  withheld  taxes, 
and  2  percent  depositary  bonds.  Second  Series,  in  the  net  amount  of 
$89,261,000  have  been  allotted  to  these  depositaries.  Of  this  amount, 
$80,188,500  of  bonds  were  purchased  by  the  depositaries  with  their 
own  funds  and  $9,072,500  were  invested  from  a  like  amount  of  Treas- 
ury cash  balances  maintained  with  such  banks.  During  the  year 
remittances  totaling  $6,336,149,070.43  were  received  by  Federal  Re- 
serve Banks  and  branches  from  depositaries  for  withheld  taxes. 

Depositary  bonds. — Department  Circular  No.  660,  dated  May  23, 
1941,  as  amended,  prescribes  the  regulations  of  the  Treasury  govern- 
ing the  issuance  of  2  percent  depositary  bonds.  These  bonds  are 
allotted  to  banks  designated  as  depositaries  and  financial  agents  of 
the  Government  and  provide  an  income  which  offsets  the  costs 
incurred  by  depositaries  in  handling  the  Government's  business. 

As  of  June  30,  1944,  2  percent  depositary  bonds.  First  Series,  in 
the  face  amount  of  $411,938,750  had  been  issued  and  $26,878,000 
had  been  redeemed.  The  amount  outstanding  on  that  date  was 
$385,060,750,  which  does  not  include  bonds  issued  to  depositaries  for 
withheld  taxes. 

Designation  oj  agencies  for  the  issuance  of  war  savings  bonds,  Series 
E. — The  Division  maintains  a  record  of  cash  collateral  pledged,  in 
lieu  of  securities,  by  designated  agents  for  the  sale  and  issuance  of 
war  savings  bonds  of  Series  E,  as  specified  in  Department  Circular 
No.  657,  as  amended.  As  provided  in  the  third  amendment,  dated 
July  17,  1942,  to  Department  Circular  No.  657,  these  agents  are  no 
longer  required  to  pledge  collateral  security  for  consignments  of  war 
savings  bond  stock.  As  a  result  of  this  provision  the  number  of 
issuing  agents  which  have  deposited  cash  collateral  has  continued  to 
decrease.  As  of  June  30,  1944,  there  were  160  issuing  agents  qualified 
by  the  pledging  of  cash  collateral  aggregating  $595,963.75. 

Federal  savings  and  loan  associations. — On  June  30,  1944,  the  Federal 
Home  Loan  Bank  System  reported  to  the  Treasury  that  1,465  Federal 
savings  and  loan  associations  were  eligible  to  qualify  as  fiscal  agents 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       153 

under  Department  Circular  No.  568,  dated  Septemberjl5,  1936,  for 
the  purpose  of  collecting  delinquent  accounts  arising  out  of  insurance 
and  loan  transactions  of  the  Federal  Housing  Commissioner.  Of  this 
number  85  had  qualified  for  this  purpose  either  by  the  pledge  of  col- 
lateral security  or  the  filing  of  an  acceptable  surety  bond. 

Social  security. — Under  existing  arrangements  between  the  Treasury 
and  the  Social  Security  Board,  various  depositaries  of  public  moneys, 
designated  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  were  authorized  to  carry 
balances  of  Treasury  funds  as  a  basis  for  servicing  State  unemploy- 
ment compensation  benefit  payment  accounts  and  clearing  accounts. 

As  of  June  30,  1944,  65  banks  were  designated  for  this  purpose  with 
authority  to  maintain  Treasury  balances  totaling  $15,100,000. 

Banking  jacilities  at  Army  posts  and  natal  stations.- — The  Treasury, 
through  the  use  of  its  depositary  system,  continued  to  provide  bank- 
ing facilities  at  Army  posts  and  naval  stations  where  it  was  deter- 
mined that  such  facilities  would  aid  in  the  prosecution  of  the  war. 
As  of  June  30,  1944,  227  depositaries  and  financial  agents  of  the 
Government  were  providing  banking  facilities  at  269  Army  posts  and 
naval  stations.  During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  15  facilities  were  termi- 
nated. The  following  statement  shows  the  character  and  approximate 
monthly  volume  of  such  business  handled  by  all  banking  facilities  in 
the  United  States  during  the  fiscal  year  1944.

Government  Losses  in  Shipment  Act. — The  Government  Losses  in 
Shipment  Act,  approved  July  8,  1937  (50  Stat.  479),  as  amended 
by  an  act  approved  August  10,  1939  (53  Stat.  1358),  was  designed 
to  provide  within  the  Government  an  adequate  means  of  prompt 
replacement  of  losses  resulting  from  the  shipment  by  the  executive 
departments,  mdependent  establishments,  agencies,  wholly  owned 
corporations,  officers  and  employees  of  the  United  States  of  certain 
articles,  things,  or  representatives  of  value,  thus  eliminating  the 
necessity  of  purchasing  insurance  from  private  companies  for  such 
replacements.  The  articles,  things,  or  representatives  of  value 
declared  to  be  "valuables"  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  within 
the  meaning  of  that  term  in  section  7  (a)  of  the  act,  include  money 
of  the  United  States  and  foreign  countries,  securities  and  other  instru- 
ments or  documents,  precious  metals  and  stones,  and  works  or  collec- 
tions of  artistic,  historical,  scientific,  or  educational  value.  The 
shipment  of  "valuables"  is  governed  by  regulations  designed  to 
minimize  the  risks  of  loss,  destruction,  or  damage,  and  to  facilitate 
replacement  under  the  provisions  of  the  act,  in  the  event  such  pro- 
cedure becomes  necessary. 

Under  the  provisions  of  section  3  (i)  of  the  Public  Debt  Act  of  1943 
(Public  Law  34),  the  fund  for  payment  of  Government  losses  in 
shipment  was  made  available  for  replacement  of  any  losses  resulting 
from  payments  made  in  connection  with  the  redemption  of  savings 
bonds,  under  regulations  to  be  prescribed  by  the  Secretary  of  the

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


Treasury.     No  pavinents  have  been  made  out  of  the  fund  for  this 
purpose. 

The  monetary  value  of  shipments,  reported  to  have  been  made 
during  the  fiscal  year  1944  under  the  Government  Losses  in  Shipment 
Act,  as  amended,  of  the  classes  of  valuables  which  were  covered  by 
the  Treasury's  contracts  with  insurance  companies  prior  to  the 
enactment  of  the  act  amounted  to  $171,256,772,313.  This  represents 
an  increase  of  $20,391,345,995  over  shipments  made  during  the  fiscal 
year  1943.  The  estimated  premium  savings  in  connection  with 
shipments  for  1944  were  more  than  $3,500,000,  and  the  premium 
savings  since  the  inception  of  the  act  have  been  more  than  $9,500,000, 
by  using  any  one  of  the  three  bases  on  which  the  estimates  are  made, 
as  shown  in  the  following  table.

Other  classes  of  valuables  covered  under  the  provisions  of  the 
Government  Losses  in  Shipment  Act  and  having  an  aggregate  value 
of  $222,225,070,944  were  shipped  during  the  year;  however,  these  have 
not  been  included  in  the  calculation  of  estimated  premium  savings 
in  the  above  table  because,  as  a  general  practice,  the  Government  did 
not  insure  them  prior  to  the  effective  date  of  the  act.

Section  of  Surety  Bonds 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  under  the  act  of  Congress  approved 
August  13,  1894  (28  Stat.  279),  as  amended  by  the  act  approved 
March  23,  1910  (36  Stat.  241),  issues  certificates  of  authority  to 
corporate  surety  companies  to  qualify  as  acceptable  sureties  on  bonds 
and  other  obligations  in  favor  of  the  United  States. 

On  June  30,  1944,  there  were  83  domestic  companies  holding  cer- 
tificates of  authority,  qualifying  them  as  sole  sureties  on  recognizances, 
stipulations,  bonds,  and  undertakings  permitted  or  required  by  the 
laws  of  the  United  States,  to  be  given  with  one  or  more  sureties. 
Dm-ing  the  year  3  certificates  of  authority  were  issued  to  domestic 
companies  qualifying  them  as  sole  sureties  on  bonds  in  favor  of  the 
United  States.  There  were  also  7  branches  of  foreign  companies 
holding  certificates  of  authority  authorizing  them  to  act  only  as 
reinsurers  on  bonds  in  favor  of  the  United  States. 


156      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  Section  of  Surety  Bonds  reviews  the  financial  statements  of 
surety  companies  authorized  to  transact  business  with  the  United 
States;  determines  their  underwriting  limitations;  makes  examina- 
tions into  their  financial  condition  at  their  home  offices,  when  neces- 
sary; and  performs  other  duties  to  determine  whether  the  companies 
observe  the  requirements  of  Federal  law  and  the  regulations  of  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury  issued  pursuant  thereto. 

The  Section  of  Surety  Bonds  has  custody  of  all  fidelity  bonds  in 
favor  of  the  United  States,  except  those  filed  with  the  Post  Office 
Department  and  the  Federal  courts,  and  notifies  the  accounting 
officers  of  the  receipt  and  filing  of  such  bonds.  It  examines  and 
approves  as  to  corporate  surety  all  fidelity  and  surety  bonds  with  a 
few  exceptions  as  referred  to  above. 

During  the  year  81,328  bonds  and  consent  agreements  cleared 
thi-ough  the  Section  for  approval  as  to  corporate  surety.  This  number 
includes  official  bonds  and  consent  agreements  totaling  48,349,  which 
is  an  increase  in  these  classes  of  more  than  22  percent  over  the  pre- 
ceding year.  This  total  increase  was  largely  due  to  the  continued 
expansion  of  the  Army  and  the  Navy. 

A  further  amendment  to  the  act  of  Congress  approved  March  2, 
1895,  was  approved  under  date  of  March  31,  1944  and  provides  that 
the  payment  and  acceptance  of  the  annual  premium  on  corporate 
surety  bonds  furnished  by  officers  and  employees  of  civilian  agencies 
of  the  United  States  shall  be  a  compliance  with  the  requirement  for 
the  renewal  of  such  bonds.  A  copy  of  this  amendment  (Public  Law 
275)  appears  as  exhibit  61  on  page  514  of  this  report.

otherwise  on  March  18,  1938,  and  subsequent  thereto  excepting  those 
which  had  already  made  separate  arrangements  with  the  Mexican 
Government.  Under  this  agreement  the  two  Governments  each 
appointed  an  expert  whose  duty  it  was  to  determine  the  just  compen- 
sation to  be  paid  the  American  owners  for  their  properties  and  rights 
and  interests.  The  compensation  found  to  be  due  to  the  affected 
United  States  nationals  was  to  be  completed  within  a  period  of  not 
more  than  7  years.  A  deposit  of  $9,000,000  was  made  and  held  in  a 
suspense  account  to  be  applied  on  account  of  the  compensation 
determined  to  be  due. 

In  accordance  with  the  joint  report  submitted  by  the  experts 
designated  by  the  respective  Governments,  the  Government  of 
Mexico  entered  into  a  further  agreement  under  which  it  agreed  to 
pay  to  the  Government  of  the  United  States  the  sum  of  $23,995,991,

'  Includes  loans  aggregating  $4,486,600  to  four  carriers,  the  assets  of  which  have  been  completely  liquidated 
and  were  insufflcient  to  meet  such  claims. 

3  Notes  of  Wichita  Northwestern  Ry.  Co.,  Virginia  Blue  Ridge  Ry.,  and  Wilmington,  Brunswick  & 
Southern  R.  R.  Co.  were  sold  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  act  of  Aug.  13, 1940,  for  $67,246.91,  resulting  in  a 
difference  of  .$510,503.09  between  the  receipts  and  the  principal  originally  held. 

Section  204,  Transportation  Act,  1920,  as  amended. — On  January  7, 
1941,  section  204  was  amended  by  Public  No.  893,  to  permit  the  re- 
opening by  certain  short-line  rail  carriers  of  claims  agamst  the  United 
States  before  the  Interstate  Commerce  Commission.  Under  the  act 
the  Commission  is  authorized  to  ascertain  and  certify  to  the  Secretary 
of  the  Treasury  the  amounts  payable  to  carriers  under  this  section  as 
.amended.  The  act  provides  that  no  claim  certified  shall  be  for  an 
amount  in  excess  of  $150,000.  No  payments  were  made  during  the 
fiscal  year  as  no  appropriation  was  available  for  payment  of  any 
amounts  certified  for  payment.  Since  June  30,  1944,  one  claim  has 
been  received  amounting  to  $21,296.92,  for  which  there  is  no  appro- 
priation. 

Under  section  204  (g)  of  the  Transportation  Act,  1920  (approved 
February  28,  1920),  an  indefinite  appropriation  was  made  to  pay 
claims  of  this  character.  The  amount  previously  paid  under  section 
204  was  $10,967,801.80,  as  reported  in  the  Secretary's  annual  report 
for  the  fiscal  year  1937,  page  83.  The  Permanent  Appropriation 
Repeal  Act  of  1934  repealed  the  indefinite  appropriation  made  for 
the  payment  of  this  class  of  claims.  However,  a  specific  appropriation 
of  $800,000,  available  for  the  fiscal  year  1942,  was  made  in  the  Second 
Deficiency  Appropriation  Act,  1941,  approved  July  3,  1941  (Public 
Law  150).  The  Interstate  Commerce  Commission  certified  to  the 
Secretaiy  of  the  Treasury  for  pa5rment  claims  aggregating  $184,602.58, 
of  w^hich  claims  aggregating  $167,529.85  were  paid  during  the  fiscal 
year  1942.  Claims  certified  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  during 
the  fiscal  year  1943  aggregating  $22,139.11  and  one  claim  amounting  to 
$17,072.73  which  was  outstanding  in  the  fiscal  year  1942  were  paid 
during  the  fiscal  year  1943.  In  the  Treasury  and  Post  Office  Depart- 
ments Appropriation  Act,  1943,  approved  March  10,  1942  (Public 
Law  495),  $600,000  of  the  unexpended  balance  was  made  available 
until  June  30,  1943.  The  total  payments  under  this  section  aggre- 
gated $11,174,543.49  as  of  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year.

payments  on  account  of  allowed  claims  of  this  character  amounted  to 
$33.50  during  the  year. 

Compensation  payments — United  States  railroad  employees. — Ex- 
penditures on  account  of  the  compensation  award  of  a  raUroad  em- 
ployee residing  in  the  United  States  amounted  to  $784.27  during  the 
year. 

Canadian  Workmen's  Compensation  Board. — The  Canadian  Work- 
men's Compensation  Board,  located  at  Toronto,  Canada,  has  juris- 
diction over  certain  cases  of  disability  resulting  from  accidents  during 
the  period  of  Federal  control  on  those  railroads  having  lines  extending 
into  Canada.  Payments  under  Canadian  compensation  awards,  made 
from  funds  so  deposited  with  the  Board,  amounted  to  $2,605.00  during 
the  calendar  year  1943.  Interest  amounting  to  $1,360.36  was  added 
to  the  fund,  leaving  a  balance  of  $28,928.87  to  cover  awards  as  of 
December  31,  1943.  The  figures  showing  the  balance  as  of  June  30, 
1944,  are  not  available  inasmuch  as  the  Board's  reports  are  on  a 
calendar  year  basis.  However,  the  status  of  the  fund  (in  Canadian 
dollars)  as  of  December  31,  1943,  was  as  follows: 

Balance  Dec.  31,  1942 $27,319.70 

Payments  from  Treasury 2,853.81 

Interest  Jan.  1,  1943,  through  Dec.  31,  1943 1,360.36 

Total 31,533.87 

Payments  of  awards  by  Board  during  1943 - 2,605.00 

Balance  Dec.  31, 1943 - 28,928.87 

Tax  refunds  and  other  collections. — Under  the  terms  of  the  Federal 
Control  Act  and  the  standard  contract  with  the  carriers,  the  Director 
General  paid  2  percent  of  all  Federal  income  taxes  assessed  against 
carriers  formerly  under  Federal  control.  Subsequently,  the  United 
States  Board  of  Tax  Appeals  held  that  such  taxes  should  not  have  been 
assessed  against  either  the  carriers  or  the  Director  General.  No  ad- 
justments of  these  claims  were  made  during  the  fiscal  year.  Further 
claims  for  such  paid  taxes  amounting  to  $438,770.84  are  still  pending 
before  the  Board  of  Tax  Appeals  (now  The  Tax  Court  of  the  United 
States). 

All  unpaid  judgments  which  have  not  expired  by  reason  of  the 
statute  of  limitations,  and  other  claims  are  being  reviewed  from  time 
to  time  to  determine  whether  any  amounts  can  be  collected  thereon. 
Collections  from  this  source  amounted  to  $49  during  1943  and  $100 
during  1944.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       189 

of  the  United  States.  Included  in  the  administrative  control  ac- 
counts are  transactions  in  securities  of  various  Government  corpora- 
tions and  agencies. 

The  control  accounts  of  transactions  in  the  public  debt  maintained 
by  the  Washington  office  with  other  branches  of  the  Bureau  of  the 
Public  Debt,  with  the  Office  of  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States 
and  various  other  branches  of  the  Government,  and  with  the  Federal 
Reserve  Banks  as  fiscal  agents  of  the  United  States  greatly  increased 
during  the  past  year  in  consequence  of  the  war  financing  and  the 
more  extended  participation  of  branches  of  Federal  Reserve  Banks 
in  such  transactions. 

In  addition  to  maintaining  the  administrative  debt  accounts,  the 
Washington  office  conducted  129  audits  involving  physical  counts  of 
securities,  currency,  distinctive  and  nondistinctive  paper,  interest 
checks,  etc.,  amounting  to  about  $13,285  millions  in  face  value  and 
105,164,830  in  number  of  pieces;  an  examination  and  audit  of  2,141 
individual  accounts  of  holders  of  registered  bonds;  and  an  audit  of 
the  numerical  registers  involving  an  examination  of  51,885,257  spaces 
representmg  bonds  retired  or  outstanding.  Other  special  audits 
under  instructions  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  were  also  con- 
ducted. 

The  Division  determined  and  certified  credits  to  the  cumulative 
sinking  fund  and  amounts  in  the  sinking  fund  available  for  expendi- 
ture from  time  to  time,  interest  on  all  classes  of  public  debt  securities 
and  securities  of  various  Government  corporations  and  credit  agencies 
which  became  due  and  payable  on  their  respective  interest-payment 
dates,  and  the  amount  of  each  form  of  such  securities  and  unpaid  in- 
terest outstanding  each  month.  It  prepared  estimates  of  interest  to 
become  payable  on  public  debt  securities  in  future  fiscal  years,  and 
of  expenditures  to  be  made  on  account  of  retirements  for  the  sinking 
fund  and  other  special  accounts,  and  prepared  statements  showing 
the  accountability  of  Federal  Reserve  Banlvs  for  public  debt  and 
other  securities  for  the  use  of  Federal  Reserve  Board  examiners  in 
their  periodical  examinations  of  those  banks.  Numerous  data  per- 
taining to  public  debt  and  other  transactions  for  various  interested 
offices  and  individuals  were  also  compiled.

The  functions  assigned  to  the  Bureau  of  the  PubHc  Debt  in  connec- 
tion with  United  States  savings  bonds  and  stamps  which  have  been 
issued  are  performed  in  the  Cliicago  Office  under  the  administration  of 
a  Deputy  Commissioner.  The  Chicago  Office  comprises  the  Adminis- 
trative Office,  Division  of  Loans  and  Currency,  Office  of  the  Register 
of  the  Treasury,  Division  of  PubHc  Debt  Accounts  and  Audit,  and

The  total  number  of  employees  of  the  Chicago  office  increased  from 
6,820  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  to  8,285  on  June  30,  1944,  a  net 
increase  of  1,465.  In  order  to  secure  additional  employees  and  at  the 
same  time  replace  5,140  separations  from  the  service  during  the  year, 
about  14,500  persons  were  interviewed  and  6,605  were  appointed. 
The  average  montliiy  turnover  during  the  year  was  5.8  percent. 
Recruitment  continues  to  present  one  of  the  most  serious  problems  con- 
fronting the  office.  ■•^IM 

The  Destruction  Committee  in  Chicago  supervised  the  destruction 
of  1,447,260  pounds  of  canceled  war  savings  stamps.  The  material

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


Division  of  Loans  and  Currency  {Chicngo) 


This  office,  under  an  Assistant  Chief  in  Charge,  handles  (1)  the 
registration  of  savings  bonds  that  have  been  sold,  (2)  the  maintenance 
of  interest  accounts  for  Series  G  bondholders,  and  (3)  transactions 
with  savings  bond  owners  in  connection  with  redemptions,  reissues, 
etc. 

Every  savings  bond  issued  is  registered  in  two  ways:  (1)  By  serial 
number  and  (2)  by  name  of  owner.  Registration  is  accomplished 
thi'ough  the  medium  of  stubs  from  the  savings  bonds  sold.  These 
stubs  are  in  the  form  of  standard  punch  cards,  each  of  which  carries 
a  full  description  of  the  bond  issued.  Sorting  and  other  processing 
of  the  stubs  are  done  largely  by  mechanical  means. 

Registration  of  Series  E  bonds. — The  stubs  received  from  all  bonds 
issued  during  each  month  are  first  sorted  by  denominations  and  serial 
numbers.  The  stubs  are  then  microfilmed,  establishing  a  numerical 
record  of  every  bond  issued.  The  name  of  the  owner  is  then  key 
punched  in  the  stub,  after  which  the  stubs  are  sorted  alphabetically 
by  names  of  owners  and  interfiled  with  the  stubs  of  prior  months  of 
the  same  calendar  year,  thus  establishing  a  file  of  each  person's  owner- 
ship of  bonds  issued  during  that  year.  A  summary  of  the  operations 
during  1944  follows.

The  alphabetical  punching  and  machine  sorting  of  Series  E  stubs 
were  increased  from  14  letters  to  16  letters,  thereby  eliminating  much 
of  the  manual  sorting  preparatory  to  inserting  the  stubs  in  the  files. 

In  addition  to  microfilming  265,565,307  Series  E  stubs  in  numerical 
sequence,  microfilming  of  Series  A  tlu'ough  Series  E  stubs  in  alpha- 
betical order  was  started  in  Januarv  1944.  By  the  end  of  the  year 
106,163,550  alphabeticallv  sorted  stubs  of  Series  A  through  D,  E-1941, 
and  E-1942  were  filmed.  At  the  close  of  the  year  76,302,186  Series 
E  stubs  were  available  for  alphabetical  filming.

Series  G  bond  interest  accounts. — During  the  year  846,912  new 
accounts  were  opened  for  Series  G  bondholders.  Interest  on  these 
bonds  is  paid  semiannually  in  the  form  of  checks.  Since  Series  G 
bonds  are  dated  as  of  the  first  of  the  month  in  which  payment  for 
the  bonds  is  received  and  since  these  bonds  are  on  continuous  sale 
there  are  interest  payments  to  be  made  in  every  month  of  the  year. 
During  the  year  4,033,385  interest  checks  were  prepared  and  interest 
was  paid  in  the  amount  of  $167,460,098.75,  as  compared  with 
1,675,584  interest  checks  for  $77,498,228.75  in  the  previous  year. 

In  connection  with  Series  G  bond  accounts,  the  following  operations

Statistical  work. — There  were  processed  during  the  year  15,585,981 
stubs  of  savings  bonds  to  provide  sales  data,  107,614  advices  of  ship- 
ment of  redeemed  savings  bonds  to  provide  redemption  data,  and 
1,090,000  statistical  report  forms  for  postmasters.  About  60,000 
cards  were  punched  and  processed  in  reporting  Treasury  sales  data 
and  500,000  cards  were  punched  and  processed  in  preparing  pay  rolls 
and  statistics  for  the  annual  budget. 

Bond  transactions. — During  the  year  656,446  bonds  were  received 
which  required  transactions  with  the  owners  in  connection  with 
redemption,  reissue,  and  other  transactions.  Of  this  number  626,550 
were  examined  and  retired.  This  involved  searching  of  1,076,419 
items. 

Authorities  for  bond  redemptions  in  estate  cases,  etc. — During  the 
year  44,430  bond  cases  and  47,239  legal  papers  were  received  for 
determination  of  authorities  for  bond  redemptions  chiefly  in  connec-

This  Office,  under  an  Assistant  to  the  Register  of  the  Treasury,  is 
charged  with  the  receipt,  audit,  clearance,  and  certification  for  credit 
of  canceled  United  States  savings  bonds  and  stamps  which  have  been 
redeemed  or  retired  on  any  account,  and  with  the  subsequent  storage

A  new  procedure  was  instituted  during  the  year  which  eliminated 
the  necessity  of  sorting  canceled  bonds  in  numerical  order  for  pur- 
poses of  posting  to  the  numerical  registers.  The  sorting  of  bonds  in 
numerical  order  has  been  eliminated  by  preparation  of  a  punch  card 
for  each  bond  by  the  transmitting  agencies  from  which  is  tabulated 
a  numerically  arranged  list  of  bonds  for  posting  to  the  numerical 
registers. 

During  the  year  31,594,826  albums  containing  redeemed  war  savings 
stamps  in  the  amount  of  $423,234,827.80  and  479,173  unissued  stamps 
in  the  amount  of  $90,630.70  were  audited  and  filed.  This  work  is 
on  a  substantially  current  basis.  There  were  54,698,560  canceled 
albums  and  1,090,918  unissued  stamps  assembled  from  the  files  and 
delivered  to  the  Destruction  Committee  (Chicago).

the  cash  received  by  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  from  the  sales 
of  savings  bonds  and  the  estabUshment  of  the  monthly  series  are 
accomplished  by  this  Division  through  audit  of  the  original  registra-

stubs  are  submitted  by  the  Post  Office  Department  on  account  of 
sales  by  postmasters;  by  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  and  branches  on 
account  of  their  own  sales  and  those  of  their  agents;  and  by  the  War 
and  Navy  Departments,  the  Library  of  Congress,  the  Government 
Printing  Office,  and  the  Treasury  Disbursing  Office  and  its  25  regional

and  9,193,795  spoiled  in  issue,  including  332,829  excess  stock. 

Division  of  Savings  Bonds  (Chicago) 

The  Division  during  the  year  functioned  chiefly  as  a  promotional 
adjunct  of  the  War  Finance  Division  of  the  Treasury,  and  in  such 
connection  was  responsible  for  distribution  of  advertising  material 
for  the  promotion  and  sale  of  savings  bonds  and  stamps.  The  special 
mailing  lists  consisted  of  218  groups  with  a  total  of  about  one  and  one- 
quarter  million  plates. 

The  Division  conducted  correspondence  with  owners  and  prospec- 
tive purchasers  of  war  bonds  and  sent  reminder  purchases  notices 
at  regular  intervals  to  approximately  68,000  participants  in  the 
Regular  Purchase  Plan. 

Treasurer  of  the  United  States 

Public  moneys  are  received  and  disbursed  through  the  accounts  of 
the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States.  Depositary  accounts  are  carried 
with  several  hundred  designated  Government  depositaries.  Checking 
accounts  with  disbursing  officers  of  the  Government  are  maintained 
on  the  books  of  the  Treasurer.  Funds  appropriated  by  Congress  for 
the  use  of  the  various  departments  and  establishments  of  the  Govern- 
ment are  advanced  to  disbursing  officers  as  required  through  credits 
to  their  accounts  with  the  Treasurer,  and  disbursements  are  made

urer's cash  because  settlement  therefor  is  made  between  the  Federal 
Reserve  Banks  and  the  Federal  Reserve  agents.

cies in  10,112  accounts  on  June  30,  1944,  amounted  to  $19,432,921,597, 
an  increase  of  $465,434,880,  as  compared  with  the  total  of  such  bal-

REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY 


Summary  of  changes  in  the  National  Banking  System 

The  authorized  capital  stock  of  the  5,049  national  banks  in  existence 
on  June  30,  1944  (including  4  banks  that  had  discontinued  business 
although  not  in  formal  liquidation  and  3  banks  chartered  during  the 
year  but  not  open  for  business  as  of  that  date)  consisted  of  common 
capital  stock  aggregating  $1,442  millions,  an  increase  of  $82  millions, 
and  preferred  capital  stock  aggregating  $115  millions,  a  decrease  dur- 
ing the  year  of  $23  millions.  The  total  net  increase  of  capital  stock 
was  $58  millions.  During  the  year  charters  were  issued  to  20  national 
banking  associations  which  had  common  capital  stock  aggregating 
over  $4  millions.  There  was  a  net  decrease  of  18  in  the  number  of 
national  banks  in  the  system  during  the  year  by  reason  of  voluntary 
liquidations,  one  receivership,  and  two  consolidations  under  the  act  of 
November  7,  1918,  as  amended. 

Changes  in  the  number  and  capital  stock  of  national  banks  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944  are  shown  in  the  following  summary.

although  not  in  formal  liquidation  do  not  submit  reports  of  condition  but  arc  included  in  this  table.  In- 
cluded also  are  3  banks  chartered  during  the  period  that  had  not  opened  for  business  as  of  June  30,  1944. 


BUREAU  OF  CUSTOMS 

The  principal  functions  of  the  Bureau  of  Customs  are  to  enter  and 
clear  vessels;  supervise  the  discharge  of  cargo;  ascertain  the  quantities 
of  imported  merchandise,  appraise  and  classify  such  merchandise, 
and  assess  and  collect  the  duties  thereon;  control  the  customs  ware- 
housing of  imported  merchandise;  enforce  customs  and  other  laws 
by  patrolling  the  international  borders  and  inspecting  international 
traffic  by  vessel,  highway,  railway,  and  air;  review  protests  against 
the  payment  of  duties;  determine  and  certify  for  payment  the  amount 
of  drawback  due  upon  the  exportation  of  articles  manufactured  or 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY

produced  from  duty-paid  or  tax-paid  imports;  prevent  the  smuggling 
of  contraband  merchandise  and  the  release  of  prohibited  articles; 
prevent  and  detect  undervaluations  and  frauds  on  the  customs  rev- 
enue; apprehend  violatoi's  of  the  customs  laws;  enforce  the  Anti- 
dumping Act  and  perform  certain  duties  under  the  Foreign  Trade 
Zones  Act. 

Collections 

After  two  successive  years  of  diminishing  revenue,  customs  col- 
lections in  1944  increased  greatly  over  the  preceding  year  and  attained 
a  level  Avhich  was  exceeded  only  once  during  the  past  decade.  With 
a  total  of  $434,259,038  in  1944,  collections  were  32  percent  greater 
than  in  1943,  and  only  11  percent  smaller  than  in  1937.  The  upward 
trend  in  collections  which  prevailed  during  the  last  five  months  of 
the  preceding  fiscal  year  continued  at  a  less  rapid  rate  durmg  the  first 
nine  months  of  the  current  year,  attaining  a  peak  of  $42,998,953  in. 
March,  an  amount  larger  than  for  any  single  month  smce  June  1937- 
During  the  last  tliree  months  of  the  fiscal  year  1944,  however,  col- 
lections declined  sharply,  the  total  in  June  ($30,163,209)  being  lower 
than  for  any  other  month  of  the  fiscal  year.  An  extension  of  the 
scope  of  Executive  Order  No.  9177,  which  authorized  the  free  entry 
by  certain  governmental  agencies  of  emergency  purchases  of  war 
materials  abroad,  became  effective  during  this  period  and  partially 
accounted  for  the  decreased  revenues.  The  types  of  collections  dur- 
ing the  past  two  years  are  sliown  in  the  following  table.

204      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

All  the  important  types  of  duties  showed  greater  revenue  in  1944 
than  in  the  previous  year,  duties  on  appraisement  entries  being  the 
only  type  to  show  a  decrease.  The  largest  relative  increase  appeared 
in  duties  collected  on  baggage  entries,  owing  partly  to  increased  tourist 
travel  and  partly  to  dutiable  articles  brought  in  the  baggage  of  mem- 
bers of  the  armed  forces  returning  from  overseas.  Duties  on  mail 
entries  were  very  little  larger  than  during  the  preceding  year  although 
the  number  of  such  entries  was  considerably  greater,  a  condition  due 
to  the  great  number  of  free  mail  entries  which  arrived  from  members 
of  the  armed  forces  stationed  abroad. 

Wool  continued  to  be  the  most  important  source  of  customs  revenue 
during  1944,  almost  one -third  of  the  total  customs  receipts  being 
derived  from  importations  of  raw  wool  and  manufactures  thereof. 
Second  in  absolute  importance  and  of  far  greater  relative  importance 
than  ever  before  were  imports  of  alcoholic  beverages  which  yielded 
over  two  and  one-half  times  more  revenue  during  the  past  year  than 
in  1943.  Sugar  was  also  a  more  important  source  of  customs  revenue, 
both  relatively  and  absolutely,  than  during  the  previous  year.  In- 
creased revenues  were  also  recorded  for  commodities  covered  by  all 
but  four  of  the  remaming  schedules  of  the  Tariff  Act. 

Statistics  on  the  value  of  commodities  included  in  the  tariff  sched- 
ules, on  estimated  duties  and  import  taxes,  and  on  the  value  of  and 
duties  on  merchandise  imported  from  countries  in  the  Western 
Hemisphere  are  shown  in  the  tables  beginning  on  page  812. 

Volume  of  business 

In  order  to  present  statistics  of  the  volume  of  customs  business 
which  are  analogous  to  collections,  the  data  which  follow  are  limited 
to  the  area  in  which  all  collections  are  turned  in  to  the  Treasury  of 
the  United  States.  Since  all  customs  receipts  in  the  Vu-gin  Islands 
and  all  except  fines  and  other  minor  collections  in  Puerto  Rico  are 
deposited  to  the  credit  of  those  respective  governments,  none  of  the 
data  for  the  Vu-gin  Islands  and  none  except  those  on  seizures  for 
Puerto  Rico  are  included  below. 

Entries  of  merchandise.— The  number  of  entries  of  merchandise 
increased  sharply  in  1944,  ending  a  five  year  period  of  successive 
decreases.  The  downward  trend  began  when  the  European  War 
started  and  was  largely  due  to  the  changes  in  kinds  and  channels  of 
trade.  Imports  from  Europe  and  the  Orient  prior  to  World  War 
No.  2  consisted  generally  of  package  goods  of  comparatively  smaU 
size  and  great  variety.  There  were  few  bulk  cargo  shipments.  The 
closing  of  these  markets  as  the  war  progressed  reduced  the  number  of 
entries  more  rapidly  than  it  affected  collections.  The  demand  for 
war  materials  and  the  limited  shipping  facilities  during  the  period  of 
submarine  activity  necessitated  a  continuance  and  even  a  pronounced 
increase  in  importations  of  those  commodities  usually  shipped  in 
bulk,  and  for  which  a  single  entry  might  cover  the  enthe  cargo  of  a 
vessel.  As  the  submarine  menace  passed,  a  considerable  variety  of 
articles  similar  to  those  previously  brought  from  Europe  or  the  Orient 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


205 


began  to  flow  in  from  countries  in  the  VVestern  Hemisphere.  In 
most  instances  these  were  shipped  as  a  part  of  general  cargo  to 
various  consignees  and  necessitated  many  entries  for  each  shipload 
of  merchandise. 

The  only  type  of  entry  to  show  a  pronounced  numerical  decline  in 
1944  was  the  warehouse  withdrawals,  the  number  of  such  transactions 
being  only  about  two-thirds  that  of  1943,  although  there  was  a  con- 
siderable increase  in  the  collections  made  under  this  type  of  entry. 
This  reflected  not  only  the  further  depletion  of  the  stocks  of  package 
goods  remaining  in  customs  bonded  warehouses  but  also  increased 
importations  of  such  commodities  as  raw  wool,  sugar,  and  alcoholic 
beverages  which  are  handled  in  large  quantities  and  yield  large  rev- 
enues per  entry.  The  number  of  entries  of  merchandise  during  the 
past  two  years  is  shown  in  the  following  table.

Vessel,  airplane,  and  highivciy  traffic.— Yor  the  third  consecutive  year 
border  traffic  increased.  The  only  declines  occurred  in  the  number  of 
undocumented  vessels  which  were  required  to  report  to  customs  officers 
and  in  the  number  of  passengers  carried  thereon  and  this  was  the  least 
important  means  used  for  crossing  international  boundaries.  The 
growth  of  the  United  States  merchant  marine  during  the  year,  the  ac- 
celeration in  vessel  movements  by  reason  of  the  operation  of  the  lend- 
lease  program,  and  the  transportation  of  military  personnel  and  sup- 
plies caused  a  larger  number  of  documented  vessels  to  be  entered  than 
for  more  than  a  decade;  and  the  number  of  passengers  arriving  on  such 
vessels  also  increased  sharply  over  the  previous  year.  Although  there 
was  only  a  small  increase  in  the  number  of  automobiles  and  passenger 
trains  crossing  the  border,  the  number  of  passengers  arriving  by  auto- 
mobiles and  busses  and  by  passenger  train  increased  by  13  percent  and 
49  percent,  respectively.  For  the  first  time  in  seven  years  the  number 
of  ferr;f  trips  increased  and  the  number  of  ferry  passengers  was  also 
greater  than  in  1943.  The  following  statement  covers  the  leading 
classes  of  traffic  for  the  last  two  years.

Airplane  traffic  on  international  lines  continued  its  expansion  for 
the  thirteenth  consecutive  year.  The  number  of  airplanes  arriving 
from  abroad  was  50  percent  larger  and  airplane  passengers  were  71 
percent  more  numerous  than  during  the  preceding  year.  More  than 
one-third  of  the  planes  and  more  than  tw^o-fifths  of  the  passengers 
arrived  at  the  port  of  Miami,  Fla.  Large  increases  in  airplane  traffic 
were  also  recorded  at  Fort  Fairfield,  Maine;  Baltimore,  Md.;  Wash- 
ington, D.  C;  Seattle,  Wash.;  and  Great  Falls,  Mont.;  while  smaller 
increases  took  place  at  Bangor,  Maine;  Burlington,  Vt.;  Buffalo  and 
New  York,  N.  Y.;  Brownsville,  Tex.;  Bellingham,  Wash.;  Pembina, 
N.  Dak.;  Detroit,  Mich.;  and  Fairbanks  and  Juneau,  Alaska.  Inter- 
national traffic  into  San  Antonio,  Tex.,  on  the  other  hand,  which  had 
been  substantial  during  the  previous  year  was  of  little  importance 
during  1944.  The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  airplanes 
and  airplane  passengers  entering  the  United  States  during  the  past 
two  fiscal  years.

Drawback  transactions. — All  types  of  drawback  transactions  con- 
tinued to  decline  for  the  second  successive  year,  the  total  drawback 
allowed  amounting  to  $10,424,184  or  $1,590,625  less  than  in  1943. 
More  than  99  percent  of  the  drawback  allowed  was  drawback  on 
merchandise  manufactured  from  imported  materials,  of  which  the 
most  important  during  1944  were  copper,  raw  wool,  cane  sugar, 
tungsten,  lead,  zinc,  and  aluminum.  The  number  of  drawback 
notices  of  intent  and  the  number  of  drawback  entries  decreased  by 
33  and  41  percent,  respectively.  A  comparison  of  these  transactions 
during  the  past  two  years  is  presented  in  the  following  table.

Protests  and  a]) peals. — A  much  smaller  number  of  protests  were 
filed  during  1944  than  during  the  previous  year,  continuing  the  decline 
evidenced  since  the  start  of  the  war.  The  number  of  appeals  for 
reappraisement  also  declined  rather  sharply  as  some  of  the  difficulties 
encountered  during  preceduig  years  by  appraising  officers  in  ascer- 
taining the  correct  foreign  value  of  imported  merchandise  were  over- 
come. The  following  statement  shows  the  progress  of  this  work 
during  the  past  two  3^ears.

Ajypraise'ment. — The  importation  of  new  classes  or  types  of  mer- 
chandise from  countries  of  the  Western  Hemisphere  increased  during 
the  past  year  even  more  than  during  the  earlier  war  years.  Prior  to 
the  war  comparatively  few  classes  of  manufactured  articles  were 
brought  from  Mexico  and  South  American  countries,  merchandise 
received  from  these  countries  being  largely  raw  or  unmanufactured. 
During  1944  manufactured  articles  arrived  from  these  countries  in 
increasing  quantities  so  that  the  value  of  merchandise  dutiable  at  ad 
valorem  rates  amounted  to  $201,303,824  and  ad  valorem  duties  of 
$35,687,613  were  collected  thereon,  representing  increases  of  16  and 
27  percent,  respectively,  over  the  totals  for  the  preceding  year. 
Owing,    no   doubt,    to   the   demands   of  the  American  market,   the 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


209 


manufactured  articles  imported  from  Mexico  and  South  America 
improved  to  such  an  extent  in  quahty  that  they  compared  favorably 
with  the  same  or  similar  articles  previously  imported  from  Europe. 

Many  problems  arose  during  the  past  year  as  to  the  correct  valuation 
of  commodities  imported  for  the  first  time  as  well  as  of  articles  which 
were  improved  m  construction  or  finish.  This  was  complicated  both 
by  difficulty  in  obtairiing  satisfactory  information  relative  to  market 
conditions  in  foreign  countries  and  by  the  rather  wide  use  of  multiple 
currencies.  As  a  result,  merchandise  covered  by  over  15,000  invoices 
remained  unappraised  at  the  end  of  the  year.  Legislation  which  will 
help  solve  this  problem  has  been  recommended. 

Prices  and  values  of  imported  merchandise  have  exhibited  an  up- 
ward trend  for  the  past  several  years  and  this,  moreover,  was  accom- 
panied by  price  fluctuations  as  improvements  or  refinements  in  the 
construction  of  manufactured  articles  were  made.  Appraising  officers, 
therefore,  had  an  unusual  amount  of  work  to  perform  in  order  to  keep 
posted  as  to  the  foreign  and  export  values  of  imported  merchandise. 

Not  only  were  commodities  received  from  countries  which  did  not 
previously  export  them  to  the  United  States,  but  because  of  war  con- 
ditions certain  classes  of  merchandise,  which  previously  were  imported 
at  a  limited  number  of  ports,  were  received  at  many  additional  ports. 
These  conditions  necessitated  the  transfer  of  appraising  personnel  or 
the  detail  of  trained  personnel  to  meet  the  temporary  diversion  of 
cargo. 

Differences  in  opinion  as  to  the  classification  and  value  of  unported 
merchandise,  when  not  settled  by  the  appraising  officers,  were  referred 
to  the  Bureau  for  instructions.  The  Customs  Information  Exchange, 
which  is  a  clearing  house  for  customs  information,  played  a  large  part 
in  adjusting  these  dift'erences. 

The  activities  of  the  Customs  Information  Exchange  are  reflected 
by  the  following  statistics.

Laboratories. — During  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  work  load  of  the 
nine  customs  laboratories  was  significantly  increased,  the  result  not 
only  of  an  increase  in  the  number  of  samples  tested  but  also  of  a 
change  in  the  character  of  work  performed.  The  number  of  samples 
tested  in  1944  was  110,236  compared  with  91,955''  in  the  previous 
fiscal  year  and  100,652  '  in  1942. 

In  previous  years  approximately  50  percent  of  the  samples  received 
represented  im.portations  of  sugar,  the  polariscopic  tests  of  which 
lend  themselves  to  routine  analytic    procedures.     During  the  fiscal

year  1944  the  sampling  and  testing  of  sugar  importations  were  dis- 
continued so  that  only  about  half  as  many  sugar  samples  were  ana- 
lyzed as  in  the  previous  year.  On  the  other  hand,  six  times  as  many 
samples  of  alcoholic  beverages  were  tested  in  1944  as  during  the 
previous  year.  In  1943  liquor  samples  comprised  only  8  percent 
of  the  total  samples  tested  while  during  the  past  fiscal  year  they 
represented  40  percent  of  the  total.  Since  alcoholic  beverage  tests 
require  considerably  more  attention  by  the  analyst,  this  change 
significantly  increased  the  actual  work  load  of  the  laboratories. 

In  addition  to  their  regular  customs  work  the  customs  laboratories 
undertook,  as  in  the  previous  year,  to  test  large  numbers  of  samples 
for  various  war  agencies,  including  the  United  States  Maritime  Com- 
mission, Lend-Lease  Administration,  Panama  Canal,  Army,  Navy, 
Marine  Corps,  Metals  Reserve  Company,  War  Food  Administration, 
Office  of  Price  Administration,  and  others.  The  war  agencies,  in 
using  customs  laboratories  for  testing  and  other  work,  availed  them- 
selves of  technically  trained  personnel  to  conduct  their  tests.  In 
addition,  both  the  United  States  Maritime  Commission  and  the  War 
Food  Administration  during  the  past  year  placed  in  customs  labora- 
tories 16  technically  trained  employees  from  their  own  rolls  to  conduct 
their  tests  under  the  supervision  of  customs  chemists. 

As  a  result  of  major  research  investigations  designed  to  improve 
the  analytic  work  of  the  laboratories,  as  well  as  customs'  sampling 
of  merchandise,  new  methods  for  sampling  alcoholic  beverages  and 
sugar  were  developed.  The  special  investigative  section  of  the  Balti- 
more laboratory  also  developed  new  and  improved  fingerprinting 
powders  and  devices  for  assisting  investigators  in  surveillance  work. 

Law  enforcement  activities 

Seizures.— For  the  third  successive  year  more  seizures  for  viola- 
tions of  the  customs  laws  were  made  than  during  the  preceding  year. 
Every  t5'pe  of  seizure  except  seizures  of  prohibited  articles  was  more 
numerous  than  in  1943.  The  total  value  of  goods  seized  in  1944  by 
customs  officers,  moreover,  was  more  than  three  times  as  great  as  in 
the  previous  year.  This  increase  was  accounted  for  by  the  seizures 
of  distilled  liquor.  As  the  result  of  the  depletion  in  stocks  of  domestic 
distilled  liquors,  owing  to  the  diversion  of  all  domestic  alcohol  for  the 
production  of  synthetic  rubber  and  for  other  war  piu-poses,  there  was 
a  heavy  demand  for  imported  distilled  liquors,  much  of  which  was 
sent  to  the  United  States  by  shippers  who  never  previously  entered 
the  American  market  and  were  not  familiar  with  the  requirements  as 
to  the  marking  of  such  shipments  to  indicate  the  names  of  the  con- 
signee and  the  net  content  of  the  container.  As  a  result,  huge  seizures 
had  to  be  made  for  noncompliance  with  the  customs  laws  and  regula- 
tions of  the  United  States.  In  most  instances  the  violation  was 
unintentional  and  the  accrued  forfeiture  was  remitted.  It  was  impos- 
sible, however,  to  consider  these  cases  as  other  than  seizures.  The 
quantitv  of  liquor  seized  for  such  technical  violations  amounted  to 
2,398,982  gafions,  valued  at  $24,255,239. 

A  somewhat  similar  situation  existed  in  the  case  of  the  cargo  of 
vessels  seized  for  a  violation  of  the  law  which  provided  that  no  vessel 
of  under  30  net  tons  burden  may  bring  into  the  United  States  dutiable 
merchandise  without  a  special  license  issued  by  the  Secretary  of  the 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


211 


Treasury,  and  that  every  vessel  not  exceeding  500  net  tons  from  a 
foreign  port  with  spirits,  wines,  or  other  alcohoHc  hquors  on  board 
have  a  certificate  issued  by  a  United  States  consular  officer  or  other 
authorized  person  for  the  importation  of  such  merchandise.  The 
value  of  the  cargo  seized  for  such  violations  amounted  to  $3,984,380 
in  1944  and  $6,300,582  in  the  previous  year.  In  most  instances,  these 
violations  were  due  to  shipping  shortages  occasioned  by  the  war,  which 
caused  persons  to  engage  in  a  trade  with  which  they  were  unfamiliar, 
and  although  the  seizures  were  actually  made,  the  violation  was  not 
sufficiently  flagrant  to  justify  the  actual  forfeiture  of  the  goods  which 
was  remitted  either  unconditionally  or  upon  payment  of  a  compara- 
tively small  sum.  Exclusive  of  this  type  of  seized  goods,  the  value 
of  merchandise  seizures  during  the  past  year  was  $1,178,644  compared 
with  $931,997  during  the  previous  year.  Increases  in  value  were  also 
recorded  for  colors,  dyes,  etc.,  textiles  and  textile  materials,  rubber 
manufactures,  guns  and  ammunition,  cigars,  hardware,  machinery 
parts,  and  livestock. 

Excluding  the  technical  seizures  of  distilled  liquor,  mentioned  above, 
there  were  6,505  seizures  of  distilled  liquors  in  1944,  an  increase  of 
67.1  percent  over  the  previous  year.  These  liquors  aggregated  5,324 
gallons  and  were  valued  at  $96,044;  they  represented  increases  of 
120.6  and  211.6  percent,  respectively,  over  1943. 

Narcotics  seizures  were  more  numerous  than  in  1943  but  declined 
sharply  in  quantity  and  value.  No  seizures  of  major  importance 
were  made  during  the  entire  year.  The  largest  seizure  of  smoking 
opium  (140  ounces)  was  made  at  Douglas,  Ariz.;  the  largest  seizure 
of  crude  opium  (128  ounces)  was  made  at  New  Orleans,  La.;  and  the 
largest  seizure  of  marihuana  (553  ounces)  was  made  at  Hidalgo,  Tex. 
The  quantity  of  seized  narcotics  during  1944  was  2,627  ounces  of 
marihuana  and  5,990  ounces  of  all  other  drugs  as  compared  with 
4,131  ounces  of  marihuana  and  7,507  ounces  of  other  drugs  in  the 
previous  year.  The  number  and  principal  types  of  seizures  made 
for  the  violation  of  customs  laws  by  the  Customs  Service  and  other 
governmental  agencies  during  the  past  two  years  are  shown  in  the 
following  table.

In  addition  to  the  goods  that  were  seized,  claims  aggregating 
$11,247,736  were  initiated  by  the  Customs  Service  against  importers 
in  connection  with  various  irregularities  and  frauds  which  did  not 
necessitate  a  seizure  or  which  were  discovered  after  the  goods  had 
gone  into  consumption. 

The  following  table  presents  the  record  of  customs  seizures  classified 
according  to  the  various  agencies  which  were  instrumental  in  appre- 
hending violators  of  customs  laws. 

For  the  second  successive  year  the  number  of  automobiles  seized 
was  greater  than  during  the  previous  year.     This  increase  was  due  to

1944  compared  with  only  34  such  seizures  during  the  previous  year. 
Fewer  automobiles  were  seized  for  other  than  liquor  and  narcotic 
violations  than  during  the  previous  year.  The  1944  total  includes 
only  one  automobile  valued  at  $50  seized  by  Secret  Service  officers

During  the  year  234  seized  automobiles  and  trucks  were  returned  to 
petitioners  because  the  violations  were  not  sufficiently  flagrant  to  war- 
rant forfeitm-e.  Of  the  103  automobiles  and  trucks  forfeited,  36  were 
assigned  for  official  use  either  to  the  Customs  Service  or  to  some  other 
governmental  agency  and  67  were  sold  at  public  auction. 

In  the  course  of  their  regular  duties  officers  often  apprehend  vio- 
lators of  other  than  customs  laws.    During  the  year,  3,084  seizures 


214 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


were  made  for  other  departments  and  agencies,  of  which  2,500  were 
made  for  the  Department  of  Agriculture.  There  were  438  persons 
apprehended,  of  whom  408  were  for  the  Immigration  Service. 

Legal  proceedings. — As  the  result  of  narcotic  seizures,  389  persons 
were  presented  for  prosecution.  Including  cases  pending  from  the  pre- 
vious year,  those  which  were  concluded  resulted  in  182  convictions  and 
73  acquittals.  Prison  sentences  aggregating  over  168  years  and  fines 
amounting  to  $8,477  were  imposed  by  the  court  on  convicted  offenders. 
In  addition  penalties  aggregating  $36,480  were  assessed  against  the 
masters  of  133  vessels  on  which  narcotic  drugs  were  found  concealed; 
many  of  these  cases  have  not  been  concluded,  but,  including  cases  in- 
itiated prior  to  July  1,  1943,  $28,327  was  collected  from  the  masters  of 
vessels. 

Fines,  'penalties,  etc. — Collections  from  fines,  penalties,  forfeitures, 
liquidated  damages,  and  sale  of  seizures  aggregated  $802,937  in  1944, 
an  increase  of  $182,436  over  the  previous  year.  The  collections  in  1944 
were  larger  than  during  any  of  the  3  preceding  years.  False  invoicing 
including  undervaluation  was  the  largest  source  of  this  type  of  collec- 
tion for  the  past  4  years.  Considerably  greater  collections  were  made 
in  1944  in  connection  with  the  attempted  smuggling  of  distilled  liquors 
than  in  either  of  the  two  previous  years ;  the  shortage  in  the  supply  of 
alcoholic  beverages  in  this  country  was  responsible  for  the  larger 
number  of  cases  of  attempted  liquor  smuggling. 

There  have  been  substantial  collections  during  each  of  the  past  three 
years  for  violations  of  the  navigation  laws.  Such  collections  were  form- 
erly deposited  to  the  credit  of  the  Department  of  Commerce  but  with 
the  transfer  of  the  enforcement  of  many  of  the  navigation  functions  to 
the  Bureau  of  Customs  on  March  1,  1942,  these  became  customs  col- 
lections. During  1944,  for  the  first  time,  customs  collections  were  made 
for  attempted  violations  of  the  Export  Control  Act.  A  number  of 
these  collections  represent  either  fines  imposed  as  a  result  of  court 
action  or  the  net  proceeds  of  sale  of  seized  property  by  the  order  of  the 
court. 

The  following  table  presents  the  record  of  collections  for  violations  of 
the  customs  laws  for  the  fiscal  years  1941  thi'ough  1944.

Investigative  and  patrol  activities. — Despite  the  shortage  of  experi- 
enced personnel  all  types  of  investigations  of  alleged  violations  of 
customs  laws  were  more  numerous  during  1944  than  during  the  pre- 
vious year  with  the  single  exception  of  touring  permit  investigations. 
Investigations  of  narcotic  smuggling  produced  evidence  of  well 
organized  conspiracy  along  the  Mexican  border  to  smuggle  substantial 
quantities  of  opium  and  heroin  into  border  ports  for  transportation  to 
New  York  via  San  Francisco  and  Los  Angeles.  Joint  investigations 
by  customs  and  narcotic  officers  resulted  in  a  number  of  important 
arrests  and  seizures  and  many  of  these  investigations  are  still  being 
conducted.  Investigations  of  fraudulent  undervaluation  and  false  or 
erroneous  invoicing  and  entry  also  increased  substantially  despite  the 
paucity  of  European  and  Oriental  information  regarding  market  values, 
owing  to  the  removal  of  foreign  investigative  officers  from  those  areas 
as  the  result  of  the  war.  Most  of  the  seizures  or  apprehensions  re- 
sulting from  attempts  to  undervalue  imported  merchandise  were 
originated  and  developed  by  investigative  officers. 

Most  of  the  types  of  investigations  in  matters  not  involving  the 
violation  of  customs  laws  were  also  more  numerous  in  1944  than  in 
1943.  An  exception  to  this  general  trend  appeared  in  the  case  of 
personnel  investigations,  either  those  involving  derelictions  or  those 
of  the  mere  routine  character  type.  Many  of  the  personnel  investiga- 
tions during  1943  would  ordinarily  have  been  performed  by  Civil 
Service  investigators  but  were  delegated  to  customs  investigative 
officers  in  order  to  expedite  the  completion  of  the  reports. 

During  recent  years  in  addition  to  tlieir  regular  customs  duties 
investigative  officers  have  participated  in  investigations  for  other 
agencies  engaged  in  the  war  effort.  Included  in  such  investigations 
during  1944  were  3,105  investigations  for  Export  Control  and  43  for 
Foreign  Funds  Control. 

A  partial  summary  of  the  activity  of  the  investigative  officers  of  the 
Customs  Service  during  the  past  two  years  is  presented  in  the 
following  table.

Miscellaneous 

War  activities. — The  special  activities  of  customs  officers,  growing 
out  of  the  prosecution  of  the  war,  continued  throughout  the  past 
year.  These  activities  include  the  handling  of  communications  or 
correspondence  commg  into  or  going  out  of  this  country  by  courier 
or  otherwise  than  in  the  regular  course  of  the  mails;  the  regulation  of 
imports  and  exports  of  merchandise  by  various  goverimiental  agencies 
for  use  in  national  defense  or  belligerent  operations;  the  disposition 
of  property  salvaged  from  torpedoed  or  wrecked  vessels;  the  admission 
into  the  United  States  free  of  duty  during  the  war  of  such  special 
categories  of  merchandise  as  effects  of  persons  in  the  Government 
service  or  persons  evacuated  to  this  country  bj''  Government  order, 
articles  for  members  of  the  armed  forces  of  the  United  Nations  or  for 
enemy  prisoners  of  war,  and  articles  sent  home  as  gifts  by  our  soldiers 
and  sailors  abroad;  the  enforcement  of  export  licensing  requirements 
for  strategic  materials;  the  control  of  shipments  to  blocked  nationals; 
and  collaboration  in  the  enforcement  of  export  control,  alien  property 
control,  trading  with  the  enemy,  foreign  funds  control,  and  other  war 
measures. 

Customs  officers  contmued  to  give  assistance  to  various  military 
and  civilian  governmental  agencies  in  cases  involving  war  problems 
touching  upon  the  field  of  customs  jurisdiction  and  maintained  close 
cooperation  with  the  Office  of  Price  Administration  in  connection 
with  the  importation  of  rationed  articles,  and  the  lading  of  rationed 
ships'  stores  on  outgoing  vessels.  Special  procedures  were  continued 
for  granting  vessel  clearances  in  the  offices  of  collectors  of  customs  to 
guard  against  the  leakage  of  ship-movement  information  to  unau- 
thorized persons. 

Among  the  new  war  problems  which  confronted  the  Customs 
Service  in  1944  were  the  extension  by  Presidential  proclamation  of 
certain  statutory  time  limits  regarding  importations;  the  customs 
status  of  enemy  aliens  and  their  property;  and  the  application  of  the 
Soldiers'  and  Sailors'  Civil  Relief  Act  to  imported  merchandise  in 
customs  custody  owned  by  members  of  the  armed  forces. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       217 

The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  pursuant  to  the  authority  con- 
tained in  the  Second  War  Powers  Act,  1942,  issued  a  number  of  orders 
waiving  comphance  with  certain  provisions  of  the  navigation  laws. 
The  majority  of  these  orders  were  given  a  confidential  status  because 
of  their  close  relation  to  the  war  effort  and  the  special  nature  of  their 
contents,  but  some,  of  more  general  applicability,  have  been  published. 
Among  the  more  important  orders  in  the  latter  class  were  those  (1) 
permitting  Canadian  halibut  fishing  vessels  to  land  their  catches  of 
lialibut  in  Alaska  for  a  limited  time  in  1944,  as  was  permitted  during 
the  previous  year  and  (2)  permitting  the  omission  of  the  tonnage  of 
enclosed  shelter-deckspace  from  the  gross  tonnage  of  certain  vessels. 

The  simplified  -procedure  for  the  admeasurement  of  vessels  of  the 
so-called  Liberty  Ship  class  by  the  use  of  standardized  figures  for 
vessels  of  this  class,  all  of  which  are  nearly  identical  in  design  and 
arrangement,  was  contmued  during  1944  and  was  extended  to  certain 
other  classes  of  vessels.  A  tolerance  of  three-tenths  of  one  percent 
in  the  gross  and  net  tonnages  continued  to  be  allowed  in  order  that 
small  and  unimportant  variations  in  the  use  of  spaces  on  mdividual 
vessels  might  be  disregarded  in  the  interest  of  speed  and  economy  in 
measurement. 

Publications. — The  increase  in  the  number  of  vessels  of  the  United 
States,  by  building  or  otherwise,  is  reported  in  the  annual  publication 
of  the  Bureau  of  Customs  entitled  Merchant  Marine  Statistics.  A 
list  of  such  vessels,  describing  each  one  in  detail,  was  prepared  and 
published  in  the  annual  Merchant  Vessels  of  the  United  States. 
However,  because  of  the  nature  of  the  information  contained  therein, 
the  distribution  of  these  publications  has  been  carefully  restricted. 

Overtime. — A  change  in  the  law  regarding  reimbursable  overtime 
services,  which  wUl  increase  considerably  the  cost  of  operation  of  the 
customs  service,  became  effective  through  the  enactment  of  Public 
Law  328  on  June  3,  1944.  This  law  was  the  result  of  the  decision  of 
the  Supreme  Court  on  January  3,  1944,  in  the  case  of  United  States  vs. 
Howard  C.  Myers,  in  which  it  was  ruled  that  extra  compensation  under 
the  Customs  Otertime  Act  as  amended  (19  U.  S.  C.  267)  is  payable  to 
customs  employees  for  work  on  Sundays  and  holidays  even  though 
such  services  are  performed  within  the  employees'  regular  tour  of 
duty,  and  that  toll  bridges  and  toll  tunnels  are  subject  to  the  pro- 
visions of  the  Customs  Overtime  Act. 

The  Myers  case  originated  in  suits  filed  in  the  United  States  Court 
of  Claims  in  September  and  October  1937  by  Howard  C.  Myers  and 
several  other  customs  inspectors  at  Detroit  for  overtime  compensation 
for  work  performed  on  Sundays,  holidays,  and  at  night  during  the  pre- 
ceding six  years  even  though  compensatory  time  off  had  been  allowed 
for  Sunday  and  holiday  work.  At  Detroit,  as  at  many  other  places 
along  the  land  border,  regular  tours  of  duty  were  long  ago  established 
as  a  convenience  to  the  traveling  public  and  protection  to  the  revenue, 
so  that  customs  officers  would  be  present  to  perform  their  duties  at 
any  hours  when  there  was  traffic  over  highways,  across  bridges,  through 
tunnels,  by  ferries,  or  on  passenger  trains.  The  establishment  of  such 
tours  of  duty  provided  that  customs  officers  be  on  duty  only  the  speci- 
fied number  of  hours  per  day  and  per  week  but  required  that  many  of 
them  be  on  duty  at  other  times  than  between  8  a.  m.  and  5  p.  m,  on 
week  days. 


218       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  decision  of  the  Supreme  Court  denied  to  the  employees  any 
extra  compensation  for  service  performed  on  regular  tours  of  duty 
between  5  p.  m.  and  8  a.  m.  on  week  days  but  held  that  extra  compen- 
sation was  payable  for  services  performed  during  any  part  of  the  24 
hours  on  Sundays  and  holidays  even  though  such  services  were  per- 
formed within  the  employees'  regular  tours  of  duty.  The  Supreme 
Court  also  held  that  operators  of  toll  bridges  and  toll  tunnels  came 
under  the  Customs  Overtime  Act,  a  broadening  of  the  previous  inter- 
pretation of  this  act,  the  reimbursable  provisions  of  which  had  been 
considered  applicable  only  to  the  owners  of  vehicles,  vessels,  or  other 
conveyances  and  only  when  a  special  permit  was  issued  by  the  col- 
lector calling  for  work  to  be  performed  by  a  customs  officer  in  excess 
of  his  regular  days'  work. 

Rather  than  repay  to  the  Government  the  overtime  compensation, 
some  of  the  operators  of  bridges  along  the  border  closed  their  facilities 
on  Sundays  and  holidays  caushig  considerable  hardship  to  the  traveling 
public,  until  the  passage  of  Public  Law  328  relieved  them  of  the  lia- 
bility for  this  extra  expense.  Under  the  provisions  of  this  act,  cus- 
toms officers  and  employees  performing  inspectional  services  on 
Sundays  and  holidays  in  connection  with  traffic  over,  on,  or  through 
an  international  highway,  tunnel,  bridge,  or  ferry  (as  defined  in  the 
act)  shall  be  paid  by  the  United  States  in  accordance  with  existing 
law  as  interpreted  by  the  Supreme  Court  in  the  Myers  case  without 
claiming  reimbursement  from  any  source. 

Foreign  Trade  Zone. — Most  of  the  operations  of  the  Foreign  Trade 
Zone  m  New  York  City  were  removed  on  July  23,  1943,  from  the 
warehouses  at  Stapleton  to  fom*  North  River  piers,  because  of  the 
need  of  the  War  Department  for  the  Staten  Island  facilities.  Al- 
though many  of  the  commodities  handled  in  the  zone  never  enter  the 
commerce  of  the  United  States,  the  zone  facilities  bemg  used  to  a  large 
extent  for  the  storage  and  manipulation  of  merchandise  during  the 
process  of  its  transportation  from  one  foreign  country  to  another, 
considerable  revenue  has  been  collected  from  goods  removed  from  the 
zone  and  brought  into  customs  territory  during  each  fiscal  year  since 
1937  when  the  zone  was  opened.  With  the  single  exception  of  1942, 
each  successive  year  has  seen  increased  customs  collections  as  the 
result  of  the  zone  operations.  Duties  and  internal  revenue  collections 
in  1944  aggregated  almost  $18,500,000,  owing  to  the  large  quantities 
of  bulk  liquors  entered  from  the  zone  into  customs  territory,  an  in- 
crease of  246.8  percent  over  the  collections  in  the  previous  year. 

Training  oj  employees. — Training  through  correspondence  courses 
was  maintained  although  the  number  of  ports  of  entry  holding  local 
classes  and  discussion  groups  continued  to  decrease,  because  of  re- 
duction of  personnel,  difficulty  in  transportation,  overtime  work,  etc., 
resulting  from  war-time  conditions.  Instruction  classes  were  con- 
ducted at  twenty-four  ports  of  entry  with  an  average  of  fifteen  customs 
officers  and  employees  in  attendance  at  each  class.  Discussion  groups 
were  conducted  at  twenty-five  additional  ports  of  entry  and  customs 
stations  where  the  number  of  regularly  assigned  personnel  was  too 
small  to  warrant  formal  classes.  A  total  of  430  instruction  classes  and 
341  discussion  groups  were  conducted  during  the  year. 

Changes  in  ports  and  stations. — The  port  of  entry  at  Westby, 
Mont.,  and  the  customs  station  at  Kelley  Island,  Ohio,  were  discon- 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


219 


tinned  during  the  year.  No  new  port  of  entry  was  established,  but 
one  new  station  was  designated  at  Marblehead-Lakeside,  Ohio. 

Cost  oj  administration. — The  total  revenues  collected  by  the  Cus- 
toms Service,  including  collections  for  other  departments  and  Puerto 
Rican  collections  other  than  duties,  amounted  to  $727,251,316  as  com- 
pared with  $414,191,247  in  1943,  an  increase  of  75.6  percent.  Collec- 
tions in  1944  were  the  largest  in  customs  history,  because  of  the  greatly 
augmented  internal  revenue  taxes  collected  by  customs  officers  on 
imported  liquor.  Such  collections  amounted  to  $292,019,928  in  1944 
and  $85,019,387  in  1943,  an  increase  of  243.5  percent. 

The  expenses  during  the  year  were  $25,044,572,  an  increase  of 
$1,662,932  over  1943,  due  to  the  payment  of  war  overtime  for  the 
entire  12  months  of  the  past  fiscal  year,  whereas  these  payments  were 
made  during  only  6  months  of  the  previous  yenr.  The  cost  to  collect 
$100  was  $3.44  in  1944  and  $5.74  in  1943. 

BUREAU  OF  ENGRAVING  AND  PRINTING 


The  Bureau  of  Engraving  and  Printing  designs,  engraves,  and  prints 
currency,  securities,  stamps,  and  various  other  official  documents  and 
forms.  During  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  deliveries  of  finished  work 
amounted  to  919,918,823  sheets,  an  increase  of  65,378,303  sheets  over 
1943  or  7.65  percent. 

A  comparative  statement  of  deliveries  of  finished  work  in  the

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       221 

New  dies  and  plates  were  prepared  for  various  classes  of  bonds, 
notes,  revenue  stamps,  and  other  printed  work.  In  August  1943, 
changes  were  made  in  the  size  and  design  of  Series  E  war  savings  bonds. 
These  bonds  were  reduced  to  one-half  their  former  size  which  per- 
mitted the  engraved  plates  to  carry  eight  subjects  instead  of  four, 
and  were  identified  as  1943  design.  Subsequently,  similar  modifica- 
tions were  made  with  respect  to  Series  F  and  Series  G  savings  bonds. 
Printing  was  begun  the  latter  part  of  the  year  on  Series  E  $10  bonds, 
a  new  denomination  wliich  was  made  available  to  the  armed  forces. 
The  production  of  war  savings  bonds  was  increased  from  1,035,000 
bonds  per  day  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  to  1,600,000  per  day  in 
October  1943,  the  highest  peak  since  the  introduction  of  this  type  of 
security.  Total  deliveries  for  the  year  for  Series  E,  F,  and  G  combined 
amounted  to  382,492,000  bonds,  with  a  face  value  of  $28,123,275,000. 

The  production  for  the  War  Department  of  allied  military  lira  cur- 
rency and  Italian  postage  stamps,  the  printing  of  which  was  begun  in 
the  previous  fiscal  year,  was  continued.  Additional  orders  were  re- 
ceived for  the  lira  notes  and  to  meet  the  delivery  requirements  it  was 
necessary  to  solicit  the  services  of  a  commercial  firm  to  assist  in  the 
printing  of  this  work.  A  contract  was  negotiated  with  the  Forbes 
Lithograph  Manufacturing  Company,  Boston,  Mass.,  to  do  the  pre- 
limmary  printing.  The  offset-printed  stock  was  shipped  to  the  Bureau 
for  overprinting  the  denomination,  series,  name  of  country,  and  serial 
numbers.  Representatives  of  the  Bureau  were  stationed  at  the  Forbes 
plant  to  observe  the  progress  of  the  work  and  to  maintain  appropriate 
accounting  controls  with  respect  to  the  stock  in  process.  A  complete 
survey  of  the  plant  was  made  by  the  United  States  Secret  Service, 
and  agents  of  the  Service  were  detailed  for  the  duration  of  the  contract 
to  insure  adequate  protection  facilities. 

Other  special  types  of  currencies  produced  by  the  offset  process 
under  similar  arrangements  with  the  Forbes  Lithograph  Manufactur- 
ing Company  mcluded  supplemental  French  franc  currency  and 
allied  military  mark  currency  ordered  by  the  War  Department,  and 
Committee  French  franc  currency  ordered  by  the  French  Committee 
of  National  Liberation.  The  designs  and  original  engravings  for 
these  special  issues  were  prepared  by  the  Bureau.  All  of  the  printing 
operations  on  the  two  classes  of  franc  notes  were  accomplished  by  the 
Forbes  Company,  and  likewise  for  the  mark  notes  except  that  the  latter 
currency  was  shipped  to  the  Bureau  for  numbering,  separating  into 
single  notes,  and  packing.  Supplpmental  French  postage  stamps  were 
also  produced  by  the  Bureau  for  the  War  Department. 

The  number  of  employees  on  the  pay  roll  at  the  beginning  of  the 
fiscal  year  was  7,818.  During  the  year,  1,933  employees  were  sepa- 
rated from  the  service  and  1,436  were  appointed,  making  a  total  of 
7,321  on  June  30,  1944. 

Expenditures  amounted  to  $27,882,504.23  an  increase  of  $6,274,- 
052.07  over  the  previous  year,  or  29.04  percent.  The  following  state- 
ment shows  the  appropriations,  reimbursements,  and  expenditures  for

Note.— The  figures  in  this  table  will  not  agree  with  those  given  in  later  sections  of  this  report  for  the  reason 
that  the  amounts  shown  in  the  later  sections  relate  to  claims  disposed  of  by  the  units,  whereas  this  table 
shows  actual  payments  made. 

•  Excluding  refunds  from  trust  funds  set  up  for  Philippine  coconut  oil,  Philippine  trust  fund,  and  Puerto 
Rico  trust  fund.  The  amounts  refunded  from  these  accounts  were  for  1943,  .$135,581.12  (coconut  oil),  $394.67 
(Philippine),  and  .$1,004.24  (Puerto  Rico);  and  for  1944,  $36,731.79  (coconut  oil),  $37.76  (Philippine),  and 
$35,282.24  (Puerto  Rico). 

If  the  tax  refunds  made  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  on  account  of 
erroneous  or  illegal  collections  of  internal  revenue  and  agricultm-al 
adjustment  taxes  and  payments  for  export  drawbacks,  redemption  of 
stamps,  and  refunds  from  trust  funds,  amounting  to  $151,322,964, 
were  deducted  from  the  gross  collections  of  $40,121,760,233,  the  net 
collections  for  the  fiscal  year  1944  would  be  $39,970,437,269.  The 
gross  collections,  however,  are  used  for  comparative  purposes  in  these 
reports. 

Additional  assessments.- — The  additional  assessments  resulting  from 
office  audits  and  field  investigations  made  during  the  fiscal  years  1943 
and  1944  were  as  follows:

penditures  do  not  include  amounts  expended  for  refunding  taxes  ille- 
gally or  erroneously  collected  and  for  redeeming  stamps.  The  cost 
of  collecting  $39,991,717,001  (excluding  $130,043,232  collected  by 
post  offices)  during  the  year  was  $0.32  per  $100,  compared  with  $0.44 
per  $100  for  1943. 

Income  Tax    Unit 

General  functions. — The  Income  Tax  Unit  is  charged  with  the  ad- 
ministration of  the  internal  revenue  laws  with  reference  to  taxes  on 
income,  excess  profits  of  corporations,  and  refunds  of  certain  processing 
taxes,  and  the  laws  limiting  profits  on  certain  Army  and  Navy  con- 
tracts. The  administration  includes  the  preparation  of  regulations 
and  interpretative  and  procedural  rulings  ancl  instructions  regarding 
such  laws  and  the  examination  and  adjustment  of  returns  filed  there- 
under, through  office  audits  and  field  investigations,  for  the  purpose 
of  determining  the  correct  tax  liability  as  required  by  law. 

Returns  filed. — The  number  of  all  types  of  income  and  excess  profits 
tax  returns  filed  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  on  which  tax  was  reported 
and  assessed  was  48,200,952  as  compared  with  30,439,764  returns 
filed  in  the  fiscal  year  1943,^  an  increase  of  17,761,188.  In  addition, 
4,412,470  ^  returns  were  filed  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  showing  no 
income  subject  to  tax,  compared  with  10,067,550  such  returns  for  the 
preceding  fiscal  year.  The  total  number  of  income  tax  returns  filed 
by  individuals  was  43,069,031,  which  represents  an  increase  of  16.2 
percent  over  the  number  received  in  the  preceding  year. 

Examination  of  income  and  excess  profits  tax  returns  upon  receij^t  by 
the  Washington  office. — Of  the  52,613,422  ^  income  and  excess  profits 
tax  returns  filed  during  the  fiscal  year  1944,  2,451,638  returns  having 
the  largest  tax  liabilities  were  forwarded  to  the  Washington  office  of 
the  Income  Tax  Unit.  Upon  initial  review  of  the  returns  forwarded 
to  Washington  (includhig  those  on  hand  in  Washington  on  July  1, 
1943,  relating  to  previous  taxable  years),  1,415,446  were  closed  and 
473,166  were  found  to  require  further  consideration  and  investi- 
gation by  the  field  offices  of  the  Income  Tax  Unit.  By  reason  of 
the  forgiveness  features  contained  in  the  Current  Tax  Payment 
Act  of  1943,  it  was  deemed  advisable  to  make  a  joint  audit  of  indi- 
vidual income  tax  returns  for  the  1942  and  1943  tax  years  in  cases 
where  an  investigation  of  one  of  these  years  is  found  necessary. 
However,  the  1942  returns  on  which  the  liability  was  discharged  under 
such  act  are  excluded  from  the  field  production  figures  shown  herein. 

Investigation  of  tax  returns  by  the  field  offices. — The  number  of  income 
and  excess  profits  tax  returns  investigated  during  the  year  was 
466,900  as  compared  with  585,243  for  the  previous  year.  These 
figures  include  all  returns  for  which  the  examiners'  reports  have  been 
submitted,  whether  or  not  the  cases  have  been  finally  released  by 
reviewing  officers. 


'  Includcii  in  thp  1944  figures  are  returns  forwarded  to  the  Processing  Division  which  are  estimated  to 
consist  of  10,125,952  taxable  (nonassessable^  returns  and  3,160,998  nontaxable  returns.  Included  for  each 
fiscal  year  are  also  the  delinquent  returns  filed  during  the  respective  year  relating  to  prior  years.

226       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Estate  and  gift  tax  returns  investigated  by  field  offices  during  the 
3^ear  numbered  17,338  as  compared  with  18,101  for  the  previous  year. 

In  the  course  of  the  excess  profits  tax  iuvestigations  conducted 
during  the  year,  consideration  was  given  to  a  substantial  number  of 
applications  for  excess  profits  tax  relief,  Form  991,  filed  by  corporations 
claiming  the  benefits  of  section  722  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code. 
As  of  June  30,  1944,  a  total  of  29,507  applications  involving  tax 
reduction  claims  of  $2,575,499,587  had  been  received  in  the  field 
offices  for  investigation.  Action  was  completed  during  the  year  on 
3,203  applications  wherein  the  tax  reduction  sought  amounted  to 
$83,828,685. 

The  total  number  of  income  and  excess  profits  tax  returns  on  which 
action  was  completed  by  the  field  offices  during  the  year  was  1,137,257, 
including  returns  which  required  investigation  as  well  as  returns  for 
which  investigations  were  deemed  unnecessary.  The  total  consisted 
of  602,769  corporation,  individual,  and  taxable  fiduciary  income  tax 
returns,  455,919  partnership  and  nontaxable  fiduciary  returns,  and 
78,569  excess  profits  tax  returns. 

Of  the  602,769  income  tax  returns  on  which  action  was  completed, 
deficiency  adjustments  were  recommended  in  214,410  returns.  This 
compares  with  a  total  of  1,182,595  income  tax  returns  for  the  preceding 
fiscal  year  with  deficiency  adjustments  numbering  278,106.  De- 
ficiencies were  recommended  in  18,878  of  the  excess  profits  tax 
returns  acted  upon  in  1944  as  against  14,019  in  1943. 

In  addition,  the  field  offices  completed  their  work  on  20,350  estate 
and  gift  tax  returns  during  1944,  recommending  deficiency  adjustments 
for  11,518  of  this  number,  which  compares  with  22,255  such  returns 
involving  11,622  deficiency  adjustments  acted  upon  in  the  preceding 
year. 

Petitions  to  The  Tax  Court  of  the  United  States  filed  during  1944 
involved  5,127  income  and  excess  profits  tax  returns  with  proposed  tax 
deficiencies  of  $72,599,451,  as  compared  with  5,283  returns  and  tax 
deficiencies  of  $92,887,169  for  1943. 

Revenue  results  of  investigations  of  income  and  excess  profits  tax 
returns. — The  total  amount  of  additional  tax,  interest,  and  penalty 
assessed  during  1944  was  $449,230,715,  the  largest  amount  of  any 
fiscal  year  on  record,  of  which  $298,806,579  applied  to  income  tax 
returns  and  $150,424,136  to  excess  profits  tax  returns.  Excluding 
jeopardy  and  duplicate  items,^  the  amounts  for  these  two  classes  of 
taxes  were  $282,442,243  and  $145,261,457,  respectively. 

Stage  at  which  additional  tax  ivas  assessed. — The  effectiveness  of  the 
settlement  authority  vested  in  field  officers  is  evidenced  by  the  high 
proportion  of  cases  closed  by  agrcemients  with  taxpayers,  without  the 
issuance  of  formal  deficiency  notices  which  are  otherwise  required  by 
law  and  from  which  taxpayers  may  appeal  to  The  Tax  Court  of  the 
United  States.  Of  the  total  number  of  251,695  income  and  excess 
profits  tax  returns  on  which  regular  additional  assessments  (including 
duplicate-regular)  were  m^ade,  237,413  additional  assessments,  or 
94.3  percent,  were  made  by  agreement  with  the  taxpayers  without 
the  necessity  of  a  statutory  notice,  as  compared  with  95.6  percent  in 
the  fiscal  year  1943.     Of  the  total  regular  additional  tax  assessed 

2  Jeopardy  assessmeTits  iDclude  all  immediate  assessments  made  under  provisions  of  sections  146,  273, 
and  274  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.  Duplicate  assessments  occur  in  cases  involving  transferred  as- 
sets, vfrhere  the  liability  of  the  transferor  is  assessed  against  both  transferor  and  transferee  in  accordance 
with  section  311  of  the  Code. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       227 

(including  duplicate-regular),  aggregating  $374,815,600,  the  amount 
assessed  by  agreement  was  $327,592,718,  or  87.4  percent  as  compared 
with  86.3  percent  for  last  year. 

Befunds,  abatements,  and  credits. — The  number  of  income  and  excess 
profits  tax  cases  which  involved  refunds  or  credits  of  tax  or  interest 
to  taxpayers  or  abatement  of  tax  audited  and  closed  by  the  Income 
Tax  Unit  during  1944  was  94,332  as  compared  with  93,093  such  cases 
closed  during  1943.  Of  the  total  of  94,332  overassessments  for  1944, 
50,076  were  made  to  taxpayers  without  the  necessity  of  filing  claims. 
This  compares  with  49,195  in  the  previous  year.  Of  the  overassess- 
ments settled  in  1944  by  the  Income  Tax  Unit,  79,714  represented 
refunds  or  credits  of  tax  or  interest  involving  $73,188,705  as  compared 
with  64,297  involving  $49,511,101  in  1943. 

There  were  also  allowed  26,662  collectors'  claims,  of  which  7,101 
recommended  abatements  or  credits  and  19,561  recommended  refunds. 
These  claims  were  largely  multiple-item  claims,  i.  e.,  claims  in  behalf 
of  a  number  of  taxpayers,  and  uwolved  19,442  items  for  abatement 
or  credit  and  56,578  items  for  refund. 

The  amount  involved  in  overassessments  of  all  types  for  1944  repre- 
sented by  refunds,  credits,  interest,  and  abatements  for  income  and 
excess  profits  tax  cases  audited  in  the  collectors'  offices  as  well  as  bv 
the  Income  Tax  Unit  was  $171,264,083  as  compared  with  $113,777,043 
the  previous  year. 

Inventory  of  returns  on  hand  in  the  field  offices. — The  number  of 
open  income  and  excess  profits  tax  returns  on  hand  in  the  field  offices 
as  of  June  30,  1944,  was  507,104  compared  with  538,982  on  the  same 
date  last  year  (excluding  in  each  year  returns  tentatively  accepted 
without  investigation).  The  net  decrease  between  the  two  dates 
was  31,878,  or  5.9  percent.  Keturns  for  1941  and  prior  tax  years  on 
hand  as  of  June  30,  1944,  numbered  182,543,  as  compared  with  102,010 
returns  for  1940  and  prior  tax  years  on  hand  a  year  ago;  thus  the 
prior-year  returns  constituted  36  percent  of  the  total  number  on 
hand  at  the  close  of  the  fiscal  year  1944,  as  compared  with  19  percent 
for  1943.

narcotics,  and  marihuana,  and  with  the  administration  of  the  National 
Firearms  Act  and  the  Federal  Firearms  Act.  This  Division  is  also 
concerned  with  the  adjustment  of  claims  for  refund  of  taxes  paid 
under  the  Agricultural  Adjustment  Act  and  related  legislation. 

The  collections  of  the  taxes  administered  in  the  Miscellaneous 
Division  amounted  to  $1,127,720,738  in  1944,  an  increase  of 
$347,736,728  over  the  previous  year.  Details  of  these  collections  for 
1943  and  1944  are  shown  in  table  7,  page  563. 


REPORT  or  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       229 

Alcohol  Tax  Unit 

Collections  of  liquor  taxes,  representing  receipts  from  excise  taxes, 
rectification  tax,  floor  stocks  taxes,  bottle  or  container  stamps,  and 
special  or  occupational  taxes,  amounted  to  $1,618,775,156  during  the 
fiscal  year  1944,  compared  with  $1,423,646,456  in  the  preceding  year, 
an  increase  of  $195,128,700,  or  13.7  percent.  This  increase  was  due 
largely  to  changes  in  tax  rates,  to  increased  withdrawals  of  fermented 
malt  liquors,  and  to  the  fact  that  the  collections  on  imported  distilled 
spirits  more  than  oft'set  the  decrease  in  collections  on  domestic  dis- 
tilled spirits.  Details  of  these  collections  will  be  found  in  table 
7,  page  563. 

Because  of  war  requirements,  the  demand  for  industrial  alcohol 
continued  to  increase  during  the  year.  Under  statutory  amendments 
eftected  by  the  acts  of  January  24,  1942,  and  March  27,  1942,  beverage 
distillers  engaged  in  the  production  of  high-proof  spirits  for  industrial 
purposes  and,  where  necessary,  transferred  spirits  of  low  proof  to 
other  plants  equipped  to  raise  the  spirits  to  the  necessary  degree  of 
proof.  The  Alcohol  Tax  Unit  operated  in  close  coordination  with 
the  various  war  agencies  in  bringing  about  the  production  of  increased 
supplies  of  alcohol. 

On  June  30,  1944,  the  following  premises  and  proprietors  were 
qualified  to  engage  in  the  production,  distribution,  or  use  of  alcohol 
and  alcoholic  liquors:

cerning industrial  alcohol  and  other  liquors.  Special  reports  covering 
such  items  were  also  prepared  for  the  information  of  such  agencies. 

Field  Inspection  Division. — This  Division  was  organized  to  inspect 
and  make  recommendations  for  the  coordination  and  improvement  of 
the  various  permissive  and  administrative  activities  in  the  15  super- 
visory districts.  The  Division  devises  and  recommends  plans  and 
methods  for  increased  efficiency  and  economy ;  supervises  the  installa-

public  funds;  and  assists  district  supervisors  in  problems  of  organiza- 
tion, management,  and  proper  utilization  of  the  services  of  personnel. 
A  group  of  specially  trained  field  examiners,  operating  directly  from 
the  Washington  office,  make  frequent  inspections  of  the  field  offices 
for  the  purpose  of  improving  efficiency  in  the  determination  and 
collection  of  the  liquor  taxes. 

During  the  year,  schools  of  instruction  for  storekeeper-gangers  and 
junior  inspectors  were  organized  and  the  systematic  and  regular 
training  of  these  officers  was  begun. 

In  the  fiscal  year  1944  a  total  of  335,771  inspections  were  made  by 
field  offices,  an  increase  of  66,754  inspections,  or  24.8  percent  over 
the  previous  year. 

The  Division  is  responsible  for  approval  or  disapproval  of  applica- 
tions, notices,  bonds,  and  other  qualifying  documents  filed  in  connec-

and  regulations  filed  in  connection  with  new  establishments,  changes 
in  premises  and  equipment,  and  discontinuances  totaled  22,191.  Dur- 
ing the  year  160  new  establishments  were  approved  and  287  were 
discontinued. 

Laboratory  Division. — This  Division  is  comprised  of  a  central  labora- 
tory in  Washington,  D.  C,  with  13  branch  laboratories  located 
throughout  the  country,  and  1  branch  in  San  Juan,  P.  R. 

The  Division  performs  all  of  the  chemical  Avork  for  the  Bureau  of 
Internal  Revenue  and  analyzes  samples  of  narcotics  submitted  by 
officers  of  the  Bureau  of  Narcotics.  The  Washington  laboratory  also 
assists  State  alcoholic  beverage  control  boards  and  police  depart- 
ments. It  collaborates  with  the  Department  of  Agriculture  relative 
to  the  official  adoption  of  methods  of  analysis  for  alcoholic  beverages. 
The  War  Production  Board,  Office  of  Price  Administration,  Defense 
Supplies  Corporation,  and  Rubber  Reserve  Corporation  frequently 
confer  with  members  of  the  Division  relative  to  production,  use,  stor- 
age, and  transportation  of  alcohol  and  products  derived  therefrom. 

The  activities  of  the  Washington  laboratory  include  the  examination 
of  formulae,  samples,  and  processes  in  which  denatured  alcohol  is 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       231 

used.  Processes  used  in  distilleries,  industrial  alcohol  plants,  wineries, 
breweries,  and  rectifying  plants  are  reviewed  in  the  laboratory  and 
samples  of  oleomargarine,  cheese,  butter,  spreads,  lubricants,  soap,  and 
cosmetics  are  examined  for  the  Miscellaneous  Tax  Unit. 

The  branch  laboratories  receive  most  of  the  samples  taken  by  Bureau 
and  narcotic  officers  for  enforcement  purposes.  They  also  analyze 
high  wines  shipped  for  redistillation  and  alcohol  stored  for  the  Defense 
Supplies  Corporation. 

Audit  Division. — The  Audit  Division  has  general  supervision  over 
the  work  relating  to  the  operation  of  registered  distilleries,  internal 
revenue  bonded  warehouses,  rectifying  plants,  industrial  alcohol 
plants,  industrial  alcohol  bonded  warehouses,  denatm*ing  plants, 
breweries,  wineries,  bonded  wine  storerooms,  dealers  in  specially 
denatured  alcohol,  and  users  of  tax-free  alcohol.  It  also  conducts  the 
tax  accounting,  assessment,  claim,  and  compromise  functions  of  the 
Unit. 

This  Division  also  determines  and  lists  assessments  against  persons 
engaging  in  illicit  liquor  traffic.  It  examines  for  allowance  or  rejection 
all  claims  for  abatement  or  refund  of  taxes,  and  for  the  redemption  of 
tax  stamps  and  strip  stamps,  and  recommends  acceptance  or  rejection 
of  offers  in  compromise  of  tax,  forfeiture  of  seized  property,  or  criminal 
liability. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  fiscal  year  there  were  on  hand  685  offers  in 
compromise  in  the  amount  of  $73,205.  There  were  received  7,268 
offers  aggregating  $413,195;  6,944  oft'ers  totaling  $386,127  were  ac- 
cepted, 488  offers  totaling  $46,472  were  rejected,  251  offers  totaling 
$42,570  were  returned  to  the  district  supervisors  for  further  investi- 
gation, leaving  270  offers  aggregating  $11,231  on  hand  at  the  end  of 
the  year. 

There  were  14  offers  in  compromise  in  the  amount  of  $16,550  on 
hand  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  submitted  in  settlement  of  liabilities 
incurred  in  connection  with  the  Federal  Alcohol  Administration  Act.

Basic  Perrnii  md  Trade  Practice  Division.— This  Division  is  charged 
with  administering  the  provisions  of  the  Federal  Alcohol  Administra- 
tion Act  and  regulations  which  have  been  issued  thereunder.  The 
act  requires  that  all  producers  (other  than  brewers),  importers,  and 
wholesale  distributors  of  alcoholic  beverages  secure  basic  permits, 
which  are  conditioned  upon  compliance  with  the  provisions  of  the 
act,  the  Twenty-first  Amendment  and  its  enabling  statutes,  and  all 
other  Federal  alcoholic  beverage  laws.  The  broad  purpose  of  the 
statute  is  the  regulation  of  the  conduct  of  the  legitimate  liquor 
industry. 

The  number  of  outstanding  basic  permits  of  all  classes  has  again 
shown  a  decrease,  dropping  from  13,547,  the  number  in  effect  on 
July  1,  1943,  to  12,913  on  June  30,  1944. 

The  following  table  reflects  permit  activities  under  the  Federal 
Alcohol  Administration  Act  during  the  year  and  the  number  of  per- 
mits of  each  class  in  effect  on  June  30,  1944.

Because  of  war  conditions  and  increasing  merchandise  shortages, 
the  vohime  of  label  applications  received  during  the  year  declined 
somewhat  from  the  volume  received  during  the  pi-eceding  year.  How- 
ever, an  increased  amount  of  work  was  necessitated  owing  to  the  fact 
that,  in  an  effort  to  relieve  the  shortages,  members  of  the  industry 
have  undertaken  to  bring  in  all  kinds  of  products  from  foreign  coun- 
tries. Specific  labeling  problems  were  presented  in  connection  with 
a  great  many  of  these  products  and  extensive  correspondence,  as  well 
as  a  large  volume  of  analytical  work  on  the  part  of  the  Laboratory, 
was  necessary  before  the  proper  labeling  of  such  merchandise  could 
be  achieved. 

In  the  enforcement  of  the  advertising  regulations  promulgatea  unaer 
the  Federal  Alcohol  Administration  Act  the  Division  reviewed  84,320 
advertisements  appearing  in  22,148  publications  and  took  appropri- 
ate regulatory  action  in  1,085  cases  involving  various  types  of  irregu- 
larities. Six  cases  involving  violations  of  the  advertising  provisions 
of  the  statute  w^ere  closed  upon  the  acceptance  of  appropriate  offers 
in  compromise.  There  were  also  20,650  radio  continuities  and  3,034 
pieces  of  point-of-sale  advertising  material  reviewed. 

Enforcement  Division. — The  activities  of  the  Enforcement  Division 
include  the  investigation,  detection,  and  prevention  of  willful  and 
fraudulent  violations  of  the  internal  revenue  laws  relating  to  distilled 
spirits,  wines,  and  fermented  malt  liquors. 

During  the  fiscal  year  6,801  illicit  stills,  2,427,649  gallons  of  mash, 
1,553  automobiles  and  trucks,  78,840  gallons  of  illicit  liquors,  and 
135,791  gallons  of  tax-paid  liquors  were  seized.  The  appraised  value 
of  the  property  seized  w^as  $2,819,851.  The  number  of  persons 
arrested  for  liquor  law  violations  totaled  11,525. 

During  the  year  11,585  persons  were  recommended  for  prosecution 
in  Federal  courts  in  Alcohol  Tax  Unit  cases,  an  increase  of  1,437  as 
compared  with  the  fiscal  year  1943;  7,462  persons  were  indicted, 
6,023  defendants  were  convicted,  and  on  June  30,  1944,  6,709  persons 
were  awaiting  grand  jury  or  trial  action  for  internal  revenue  liquor 
law  violations,  an  increase  of  307  from  June  30,  1943. 

During  the  year  82  applications  for  pardon  and  993  applications  for 
parole  were  examined  and  reports  submitted. 

Transportation  of  liquor  into  dry  territory. — As  a  result  of  the  enforce- 
ment of  the  Liquor  Enforcement  Act  of  1936  relating  to  the  intro- 
duction of  tax-paid  liquors  into  dry  States,  69  vehicles  and  1,688 
gallons  of  tax-paid  liquors  valued  at  $69,289  were  seized,  97  persons 
were  arrested,  and  76  were  indicted  and  convicted. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       233 

Floor  stocks  tax  violations. — There  were  2,681  floor  stocks  tax  cases 
perfected  during  the  fiscal  year  which  involved  the  seizure  of  61,705 
gallons  of  tax-paid  liquor  valued  at  $717,457.  Taxes  and  penalties 
amounting  to  $1,049,456  were  recommended  for  assessment  in  these 
cases.  Offers  in  compromise  in  the  amount  of  $1,255,378  in  lieu  of 
criminal  and/or  civil  liabilities  were  accepted  by  the  Department  of 
Justice. 

Federal  Alcohol  Administration  Act  violations.— Offers  in  compromise 
totaling  $1,700,850  in  lieu  of  criminal  and  civil  liabilities  were  accepted 
by  the  Department  of  Justice  from  45  breweries  for  subsidizing  retail 
outlets  in  violation  of  the  Federal  Alcohol  Administration  Act. 

Violations  of  internal  revenue  laws  and  Federal  Alcohol  Administration 
Act  resulting  from  shortage  of  distilled  spirits. — The  War  Production 
Board  order  which  prohibited  the  production  of  distilled  spirits  for 
beverage  purposes  on  and  after  October  8,  1942,  the  self-imposed 
industry  rationing  system,  and  hoarding  by  dealers  gradually  brought 
about  a  shortage  of  beverage  spirits  available  for  public  consumption. 
The  shortage  began  to  be  acute  about  September  1943,  and  by  Jan- 
uary 1944  it  was  practically  impossible  for  consumers  to  find  whiskey 
on  the  shelves  of  retailers.  This  shortage  of  distilled  spirits  resulted 
in  large  scale  violations  of  the  internal  revenue  laws  and  the  Federal 
Alcohol  Administration  Act.  In  this  connection  investigations  of 
3,804  taxpayers  and  permittees  were  undertaken  during  the  fiscal 
year.  These  investigations  related  largely  to  the  falsification  of 
Record  52  by  wholesalers  and  to  violations  of  the  terms  and  conditions 
of  permits  under  the  Federal  Alcohol  Administration  Act. 

There  were  548  cases  submitted  to  United  States  attorneys  with 
recommendations  for  the  prosecution  of  1,174  persons.  Federal  grand 
juries  returned  216  indictments  involving  485  persons,  175  defendants 
were  convicted,  and  55,712  gallons  of  tax-paid  spirits  valued  at 
$691,038  were  seized. 

Accounts  and  Collections  Unit 

The  Accounts  and 'Collections  Unit  is  the  central  administrative 
organization  for  the  64  internal  revenue  collection  districts  and  makes 
the  administrative  audit  of  all  expenditures  for  the  Internal  Revenue 
Service.  The  Unit  also  administers  the  employment  taxes  imposed 
under  Chapter  9  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  the  taxes  under  Sub- 
chapter A  (Federal  Insurance  Contributions  Act)  being  with  respect 
to  employment  by  others  than  carriers,  Subchapter  B  with  respect  to 
employment  by  carriers,  and  Subchapter  C  (Federal  Unemployment 
Tax  Act)  with  respect  to  the  tax  on  employers  of  eight  or  more. 

There  were  79,359,029  tax  returns  filed  in  collectors'  offices  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944,  an  increase  of  22,060,035  over  the  previous  year. 
Of  the  total  returns  filed,  62,795,006  were  income  and  excess  profits 
tax  returns  and  declarations,  an  increase  of  22,287,692  during  the  year. 

During  the  fiscal  year,  268,884  income  tax,  112,238  miscellaneous 
tax,  and  564,068  employment  tax  returns  were  investigated  by  field 
deputy  collectors,  and  5,073,679  information  returns  were  verified. 
At  the  close  of  business  June  30,  1944,  there  were  outstanding  in  the 
64  collection  districts  45,500  income  tax  returns,  and  7,330,793  infor- 
mation returns  were  on  hand. 


234  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF    THE   TREASURY 

Deputy  collectors  of  internal  revenue  served  491,078  warrants  for 
distraint,  which  resulted  in  the  collection  of  $83,338,767.  An  average 
of  9,057  deputy  collectors  made  3,792,416  revfinue-producing  investi- 
gations, including  the  serving  of  warrants  for  distraint,  compared  with 
3,301,745  revenue-producing  investigations  made  by  an  average  of 
6,395  deputy  collectors  in  the  preceding  year.  The  total  amount 
collected  and  reported  for  assessment  by  deputy  collectors  was 
$245,317,947,  compared  with  $150,643,949  in  the  previous  year.  The 
average  number  of  investigations  made  per  deputy  and  the  average 
amount  of  tax  collected  and  reported  for  assessment  were  420  and 
$27,086,  respectively,  compared  with  516  and  $23,557,  respectively, 
in  1943.  There  were  245,089  warrants  for  distraint  in  custody  in  the 
collectors'  field  forces  on  June  30,  1944,  as  com.pared  with  250,477  on 
hand  June  30,  1943. 

A  total  of  16,257,204,444  revenue  stamps,  valued  at  $3,303,693,383, 
was  issued  to  collectors  of  internal  revenue  and  the  Postmaster  General 
during  the  year,  compared  with  16,529,206,905  stamps  valued  at 
$3,122,024,388  issued  in  1943.  Revenue  stamps  returned  by  collectors 
of  internal  revenue  and  by  the  Postmaster  General,  and  credited  to 
their  account,  amounted  to  $592,355,269.  There  w^ere  109  applica- 
tions allowed  for  restamping  packages  from  which  the  original  stamps 
had  been  lost,  mutilated,  or  destroyed,  compared  with  191  applica- 
tions in  the  preceding  year. 

The  Disbursement  Accounting  Division  administratively  examined 
and  recorded  1,552  monthly  accounts,  comprising  182,454  vouchers,  of 
collectors,  of  internal  revenue,  internal  revenue  agents  in  charge, 
technical  staff  divisions,  and  district  supervisors,  including  the  San 
Juan,  P.  R.,  branch  of  the  District  of  Maryland,  and  the  Honolulu, 
T.  H.,  branch  of  the  San  Francisco  Alcohol  Tax  District  No.  14.  In 
addition,  4,568  expense  vouchers  of  employees  and  29,296  vouchers

Technical  Staff 

The  Technical  Staff  is  the  appellate  agency  in  the  Bureau  of  Internal 
Revenue  for  the  determination  of  income,  profits,  estate,  and  gift  tax 
liability  in  disputed  cases.  The  Staff  consists  of  an  administrative 
office  in  Washington  and  10  field  divisions  with  35  local  offices.  The 
heads  of  these  divisions  exclusively  represent  the  Commissioner  of 


238       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Internal  Revenue  within  their  territorial  jurisdiction  (a)  in  the 
determination  of  tax  liability  in  contested  cases  not  docketed  before 
The  Tax  Court  of  the  United  States,  and  (b)  in  the  stipulated  settle- 
ment, with  concurrence  of  division  counsel,  of  cases  docketed  by  The

and  597  on  June  30,  1944. 

The  nondocketed  cases  disposed  of  by  agreement,  by  default,  and 
by  unagreed  action  on  claims,  involved  proposed  deficiencies  in  tax 
and  penalties  totaling  $56,668,556,  and  overassessments  tentatively 
determined  of  $7,010,312.  The  deficiencies  and  penalties  agreed  to 
amounted  to  $23,853,835,  and  overassessments  of  $5,429,570  were 
allowed.  Defaults  totaled  $4,160,978  in  tax  and  penalties,  with 
$163,055  in  overassessments.  In  addition,  overassessments  aggregat- 
ing $850,394  were  allowed  in  unagreed  claims  cases. 

The  docketed  cases  closed  by  stipulation  involved  asserted  deficien- 
cies in  tax  and  penalties  aggregating  $62,313,494  and  overassessments 
of  $1,483,744  for  other  years  and  in  associated  cases.  The  amount 
agreed  to  consisted  of  $23,796,634  in  tax  and  penalties  and  $1,287,529 
in  overassessments. 

The  filing  of  applications  for  general  relief  under  section  722  of  the 
Internal  Revenue  Code,  made  applicable  retroactively  to  taxable  years 
beginning  after  December  31,  1939,  has  materially  slowed  down  the 
closing  of  corporate  cases  for  such  years.  It  is  probable  that  this 
phase  of  the  work,  together  with  the  volume  of  difficult  excess  profits 
tax  cases,  will  cause  some  increases  in  Staff'  inventories  for  several 
years  to  come.  wStriking  results  of  the  decentralized  procedure  are 
that  for  over  five  years  of  full  operation  approximately  one-third  of 
all  statutory  notices  directed  or  sustained  by  the  Staff"  field  divisions 
are  defaulted  in  that  no  petition  is  filed  with  The  Tax  Court;  in  cases 
handled  by  the  Staff"  in  nondocketed  status,  only  1  in  8  is  tried  before 
The  Tax  Court;  and  litigating  results  show  that  over  half  of  the  tax 
in  controversy  in  the  dockets  which  are  tried  is  upheld  by  The  Tax 
Court.

240       REPOKT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

111  claims  filed  by  collectors  against  the  estates  of  deceased  taxpayers 
and  insolvent  banks  and  in  liquidation  proceedings,  including  assign- 
ments for  the  benefit  of  creditors,  2,259  cases  involving  claims  amount- 
ing to  $S,lS7,S10_were  settled  and  $2,849,356  was  collected. 

The  Office  reviewed  715  cases  involving  proposed  allowances  for 
overpayment  or  overassessment  of  income,  excess  profits,  estate,  gift, 
and  miscellaneous  taxes,  as  well  as  deficiencies  when  coupled  witli  tax

ticular case  exceeded  $20,000.  Pa3'ment  of  $31,203,282  ^vas  recom- 
mended upon  claims  amounting  to  $57,183,582.  Included  in  these 
figures  are  income,  excess  profits,  estate,  and  gift  tax  cases  involving 
overpayments  exceeding  $75,000,  on  which  reports  were  prepared  for 
the  Joint  Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation.  Cases  were  re- 
viewed involving  claims  for  refund  of  amounts  paid  as  processing  and 
floor  stocks  taxes  and  unjust  enrichment  tax  deficiencies  aggregating 
$24,312,939.  Final  review  of  3,275  cases  involving  compromise  and 
closing  agreements  was  made. 

Claims  for  reward  for  information  relative  to  violations  of  the  in- 
ternal revenue  laws  were  considered  and  payments  of  $77,209  were 
recommended  in  62  of  the  212  cases  disposed  of. 

In  connection  with  the  administration  and  enforcement  of  the  in- 
ternal revenue  liquor  laws  and  the  laws  relating  to  firearms,  5,669 
memoranda,  181  briefs,  6,570  opinions,  252  libels,  and  32  indictments 
were  prepared.  With  respect  to  alcohol  and  Federal  Alcohol  Adminis- 
tration permits,  45  denials  of  applications  for  permits,  71  notices  of 
contemplated  denials  of  applications,  154  citations  for  rev^ocation  and

of  over  $5,000  each,  7,447  compromise  cases,  and  135  petitions  for  re- 
mission or  mitigation  of  forfeitures.  In  addition,  187  hearings  were 
participated  in. 

During  the  year  528  internal  revenue  tax  cases  involving  criminal 
liability  were  closed.  Much  of  this  penal  work  was  performed  in  close 
cooperation  with  the  Department  of  Justice  and  included  consideration 
of  oft'ers  in  compromise  and  the  preparation  of  opinions  construing  the 
criminal  and  percentage  penalty  statutes  and  whether  certain  cases 
should  be  reopened  because  of  fraud  or  malfeasance,  or  misrepresenta- 
tion of  a  material  fact. 

Work  involving  interpretation  of  internal  revenue  laws  was  per- 
formed in  2,592  cases,  including  the  preparation  or  review  of  memo- 
randa, correspondence,  briefs  to  be  filed  with  The  Tax  Court  in  key 
cases,  actions  on  decisions  in  special  cases,  and  closing  agreements 
covering  proposed  transactions.  Material  submitted  for  publication 
in  the  Internal  Revenue  Bulletin  was  edited. 

The  Office  prepared  or  reviewed  regulations  issued  under  the  inter- 
nal revenue  laws  and  tax  conventions  with  foreign  countries  and  reports 
on  legislation  introduced  in  Congress  aft'ecting  the  internal  revenue. 
Consideration  was  given  to  suggestions  for  amendments  of,  and  addi- 
tions to,  the  various  internal  revenue  laws,  and  reports  thereon  were 
prepared.  The  Office  participated  in  the  preparation  of  income  tax 
and  other  forms  and  in  the  drafting  of  internal  revenue  laws  and  tax 
conventions. 

In  159  cases,  technical  engineering  and  auditing  advice  and  assist- 
ance were  furnished  revenue  officials  and  the  Department  of  Justice, 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       241 

principally  in  the  fields  of  valuation  and  depreciation.  Legal  advice 
and  assistance  were  rendered  officials  concerned  with  the  salary 
stabilization  regulations  in  2,359  cases. 

Intelligence  Unit 

The  Intelligence  Unit  is  principally  concerned  with  the  investigation 
of  tax  fraud  cases  in  cooperation  with  internal  revenue  agents  and  dep- 
uty collectors.  During  the  year,  1,082  investigations  were  made  of 
alleged  evasion  of  income  and  miscellaneous  taxes,  and  of  this  number 
280  cases,  involving  512  individuals,  were  recommended  for  prosecu- 
tion. On  this  charge  there  were  convictions  of  85  individuals  and  2 
acquittals.  Investigations  of  these  cases  resulted  in  recommendation 
for  assessment  of  additional  taxes  and  penalties  amounting  to 
$45,718,776. 

In  addition  to  collections  by  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  of 
taxes,  penalties,  and  interest,  amounts  are  covered  into  the  Treasury  as 
a  result  of  fines  imposed  in  criminal  cases.  In  some  jurisdictions  the 
courts  have  imposed  an  additional  penalty  by  requiring  the  defendants 
to  pay  the  costs  of  the  investigations,  that  is,  the  salaries  and  expenses 
of  the  agents  during  investigations. 

There  were  2,684  investigations  of  applications  of  attorneys  and 
agents  to  practice  before  the  Treasury  Department  and  42  investi- 
gations of  charges  against  enrolled  agents  and  attorneys,  resulting  in 
the  disbarment  of  6,  the  suspension  of  2,  the  reprimand  of  3,  and  the 
rejection  of  applications  of  10. 

The  investigations  in  84  cases  of  charges  against  employees  of  the 
Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  resulted  in  the  separation  from  the  Service 
of  53  employees.  Criminal  proceedings  were  instituted  against  14,  and 
of  the  11  brought  to  trial  during  the  year  all  were  convicted.  There 
were  also  133  cases  of  a  miscellaneous  character  investigated,  resulting 
in  the  prosecution  of  9.     Six  were  tried  and  all  were  convicted. 

Salary  Stabilization  Unit 

The  Salary  Stabilization  Unit,  under  the  supervision  of  a  deputy 
commissioner,  was  created  by  Treasury  Decision  5176,  dated  October 
29,  1942,  to  administer  the  provisions  of  the  regulations  prescribed 
by  the  Director  of  Economic  Stabilization  under  the  act  of  October 
2,  1942  (Public  Law  729),  and  Executive  Order  No.  9250,  dated 
October  3,  1942,  for  stabilizing  all  salaries  in  excess  of  $5,000  per 
annum,  and  of  executive,  administrative,  and  professional  salaries 
where  the  rates  were  in  excess  of  $30  a  week  and  $200  a  month, 
respectively,  and  the  positions  were  not  represented  by  a  certified 
labor  organization.  The  regulations  directed  that,  in  general,  levels 
of  compensation  were  to  be  stabilized  as  of  the  level  existing  on 
September  15,  1942.  Regulations,  Treasury  Decision  5186,  outlining 
the  policies  and  procedure  to  be  followed  with  respect  to  salaries  of 
employees  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Commissioner,  were  promul- 
gated on  December  2,  1942. 

On  April  8,  1943,  the  President  issued  Executive  Order  No.  9328, 
which  provided  for  certain  changes  in  policies  and  procedure.  As  a 
result  of  this  order,  the  statement  of  the  Director  of  Economic  Sta- 
bilization, dated  May  12,  1943,  and  the  revised  regulations  issued  by

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


the  Director  on  August  28,  1943,  the  Commissioner  promulgated 
amended  regulations.  Treasury  Decision  5295,  which  were  approved 
on  September  4,  1943. 

In  addition  to  the  regulations,  the  Commissioner  of  Internal  Rev- 
enue has  from  time  to  time  issued  special  rulings  covering  specific 
types  of  adjustments  common  to  industry  generally.  These  special 
rulings  cover  such  subjects  as  overtim.e  compensation,  vacation  pay, 
pension  benefits-  and  profit-sharing  trusts,  insurance,  salary  rate 
schedules,  bonuses,  commissions,  and  others. 

Thirteen  regional  offices  process  employers'  applications  for  ap- 
proval of  increases  in  compensation,  which  generally  are  salary  ad- 
justments or  bonus  or  commission  payments.  The  head  of  each 
regional  ofiBce  is  authorized  to  make  rulings  subject  only  to  review 
by  the  deputy  commissioner. 

"^  An  act  of  Congress  approved  June  30,  1944  (Public  383),, extending 
the  act  of  October  2,  1942,  stipulated  that  its  provisions  should 
terminate  on  June  30,  1945. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  rulings  on  compensation  adjustments 
issued  by  the  Salary  Stabilization  Unit  trebled  those  issued  in  1943, 
the  fiscal  year  in  wliich  the  Unit  was  establishe_d.

BUREAU  OF  THE  MINT 

The  principal  functions  of  the  Mint  Service  include  the  acquisition 
of  gold  and  silver  bullion,  payments  for  which  are  made  on  the  basis 
of  Mint  assays;  the  manufacture  of  domestic  silver  and  minor  coins; 
and  the  safeguarding  of  the  Government's  holdings  of  the  monetary 
metals,  including  coins,  until  required  for  distribution  through  the 
banks.  Incidental  activities  include  the  refining  of  gold  and  silver, 
coinage  for  foreign  governments,  manufacture  of  gold,  sUver,  and 


244       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

bronze  medals,  coinage  dies,  platinum  assay  utensils,  and  other 
materials.  In  addition,  the  Mint  Service  performs  special  assays  of 
bullion  and  ores  submitted  by  the  public  for  analysis  and  return. 

The  Mint  Service  as  now  constituted  was  created  over  a  period  of 
years  beginning  with  the  Philadelphia  Mint  in  1792.  Its  newest 
institution  is  the  West  Point  Depository  which  was  completed  in 
1938.  The  Bureau  of  the  Mint  was  established  in  1873  as  a  central 
supervisory  agency. 

Institutions  of  the  Mint  Service 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  six  mint  institutions  were  in  operation: 
Coinage  mints  at  Philadelphia,  San  Francisco,  and  Denver;  assay 
office  at  New  York,  which  handles  the  major  portion  of  the  gold 
imported  and  exported,  and  its  auxiliary  silver  bullion  depository  at 
West  Point;  gold  bullion  depository  at  Fort  Knox,  Ky. ;  and  assay 
office  at  Seattle.  Electrolytic  refineries  are  maintained  at  the  New 
York,  Denver,  and  San  Francisco  institutions. 

Coinage 

Domestic  coin  manufactured  during  the  fiscal  year  1944  amounted 
to  the  record  production  of  2,578,640,270  pieces,  compared  with 
1,472,098,762  pieces  during  the  preceding  year.  As  in  previous  years, 
the  denomination  most  largely  produced  was  the  1-cent  piece.  Pro- 
duction in  1944,  in  amount  $109,464,836.70,  consisted  of  406,356,600 
subsidiary  silver  coins  with  a  value  of  $77,596,800.00,  253,630,000 
5-cent  coins  with  a  value  of  $12,681,500.00,  and  1,918,653,670  1-cent 
coins  with  a  value  of  $19,186,536.70.  Of  the  1-cent  coins,  898,686,670 
were  of  zinc-coated  steel  and  1,019,967,000  were  of  copper-zinc. 

Coinage  for  foreign  governments  totaled  487,847,000  pieces,  com- 
pared with  173,023,000  during  the  preceding  year. 

The  grand  total  of  domestic  and  foreign  coinage  in  1944  amounted 
to  3,066,487,270  pieces,  which  was  an  increase  in  domestic  coinage 
over  the  prior  fiscal  year  of  1,106,541,508  pieces,  or  75  percent,  and 
an  increase  in  foreign  coinage  of  314,824,000  pieces,  or  182  percent. 
The  weight  of  the  finished  coins  was  12,354.31  tons,  or  an  average 
production  of  35  tons  per  day. 

Minor  coinage  alloys 

Five-cent  coin. — The  5-cent  piece  issued  under  authority  of  the 
Second  War  Powers  Act,  approved  March  27,  1942,  was  coined  during 
the  fiscal  year  1944.  The  composition  is  an  alloy  of  56  percent  copper, 
35  percent  silver,  and  9  percent  manganese,  and  its  standard  weight 
is  77.16  grains.  No  5-cent  pieces  containing  75  percent  copper  and 
25  percent  nickel  have  been  coined  since  May  1942. 

One-cent  coin. — Production  of  the  zinc-coated  steel  cent  was  discon- 
tinued December  31,  1943.  The  total  number  of  zinc-coated  steel 
coins  struck  from  the  beginning  of  production  in  February  1943  to 
their  discontinuance  December  31,  1943,  was  1,093,838,670  pieces. 
On  January  1,  1944,  production  was  commenced  of  a  copper-zinc 
coin  containing  95  percent  copper  and  5  percent  zinc.  This  was  done 
under  authority  of  the  order  of  the  Acting  Secretary  of  the  Treasury, 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       245 

December  10,  1943,  issued  pursuant  to  Public  Law  815,  approved 
December  18,  1942.  The  change  was  made  as  a  result  of  the  avail- 
abiHty  of  fired  brass  cartridge  cases,  to  which  copper  is  added  to 
produce  the  alloy.  The  standard  weight  of  the  coin  is  48  grains,  the 
same  as  the  former  bronze  1-cent  coin,  production  of  which  was 
discontinued  in  December  1942. 

Metal  savings. — The  production  of  the  copper-silver-manganese  5- 
cent  piece  and  the  zinc-coated  steel  1-cent  piece  during  the  fiscal  year 
1944  freed  3,194  tons  of  copper,  350  tons  of  nickel,  and  120  tons  of 
zinc  for  use  in  furtherance  of  the  war  eft'ort. 

Bullion  deposit  transactions 

Bullion  deposit  transactions  during  the  year  numbered  7,492,  in- 
cluding 53  inter-mint  service  transactions,  compared  with  15,406  and 
99,  respectively,  during  the  prior  year.  The  deposit  transactions 
required  14,02-2  assay  determinations,  compared  with  23,019  assay 
determinations  last  year. 

Long-term  storage  oj  bullion 

There  were  no  transfers  of  bullion  for  long-term  storage  during  the 
fiscal  year  1944.  Because  of  increased  sales  of  gold  bars  for  industrial 
consumption  and  the  large  amounts  of  gold  used  for  ear-marking 
purposes,  it  became  necessary  to  transfer  29,625,700  fine  ounces  of 
gold  with  a  value  of  $1,036,899,495  from  the  Bullion  Depository  at 
Fort  Knox  to  the  New  York  Assay  Office. 

The  balance  of  silver  in  the  Bullion  Depository  at  West  Point  was 
also  decreased  by  removal  of  silver  for  sales  under  the  terms  of  the 
Green  Act  (Public  Law  137,  approved  July  12,  1943)  and  for  lend- 
lease  transactions.  During  the  year  40,791,567  ounces  of  silver  were 
sold  under  the  Green  Act  and  211,359,650  ounces  were  lend-leased. 
The  New  York  Assay  Office  manufactured  coinage  ingots  containing 
11,063,000  fine  ounces  of  silver  which  were  transferred  to  the  Phila- 
delphia Mint  for  use  in  domestic  subsidiary  silver  coinage. 

Additional  amounts  of  silver  were  removed  from  West  Point  for  use 
in  defense  plants.  The  total  amount  of  silver  loaned  for  that  purpose 
to  the  Defense  Plant  Corporation,  etc.,  amounted  to  891,792,971  fine 
ounces  on  June  30,  1944,  as  compared  with  699,819,332  fine  ounces  on 
June  30,  1943.  This  silver  is  to  be  returned  to  Treasury  custody 
after  it  has  performed  its  function. 

The  balance  of  silver  in  the  Bullion  Depository  at  West  Point 
amounted  to  513,706,973  fine  ounces  at  the  end  of  the  year. 

Gold  operations 

Gold  acquisitions  by  the  mints  and  assay  offices  during  the  year, 
on  the  basis  of  classified  melted  receipts,  amounted  to  $58,524,200.77 
and  transfers  between  mint-service  institutions  amounted  to 
$1,040,831,947.20.  These  transactions  totaled  $1,099,356,147.97, 
compared  with  $208,006,481.87  for  the  prior  year  which  included 
$19,871,516.21  in  inter-mint  transfers. 

Acquisitions  m  1944  included  $10,764.13  of  gold  received  at  $20.67  + 
per  fine  ounce.     Increment  on  this  gold  amounted  to  $7,459.44. 


246      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Silver  operations 

Treasury  silver  acquisitions  during  the  year  totaled  12,042,027.25 
fine  ounces.  The  total  value,  at  an  average  of  $0,478  per  fine  ounce, 
equalled  $5,757,512.53.     Acquisitions  were  as   follows:

United  States  coin  received  for  recoinage  during  the  year  amounted 
to  1,127,651.70  fine  ounces,  with  a  recoinage  value  of  $1,558,875.67. 
Unfit  silver  dollars  with  a  face  value  of  $44,658,194.00  were  melted, 
yielding  33,152,082.31  fine  ounces  of  silver. 

Transfers  of  silver  between  mint  institutions  amounted  to 
9,109,409.72  fine  ounces,  and  foreign  governments  deposited  58,581,- 
355.97  ounces  of  silver  for  foreign  coinage,  making  a  grand  total  of 
114,012,526.95  fine  ounces  of  silver  handled. 

During  the  fiscal  year  $387,878  of  silver  certificates  were  issued 
against  300,000  fine  ounces  of  silver  bullion  valued  at  $1.29+  per 
fine  ounce,  the  statutory  monetary  value  of  silver.  This  silver  had 
been  acquired  at  an  average  price  of  $0.7111+  per  fine  ounce.  The 
difference  between  the  cost  of  the  silver  held  to  secure  these  certifi- 
cates and  the  monetary  value  of  such  silver  is  $174,545.00,  and  this 
amount  constitutes  seigniorage. 

The  open-market  price  of  silver  in  New  York  (mean  of  bid  and 
asked)  remained  at  $0.45062  throughout  the  fiscal  year. 

For  newly  mined  domestic  silver  a  return  to  the  depositor  of 
$0.7111+  per  fine  ounce,  established  by  the  act  of  July  6,  1939, 
prevailed  during  the  year. 

Rejineries 

The  three  electrolytic  refineries  produced  4,031,631  fine  ounces 
(138  tons)  of  electrolytically  refined  gold  bullion  and  4,385,482  fine

BUREAU  OF  NARCOTICS  i 

The  activities  of  the  Bureau  of  Narcotics  are  directed  toward  the 
suppression  and  elimination  of  the  illicit  traffic  in  narcotic  drugs  and 
toward  an  eft'ective  control  of  the  legitimate  manufacture  and  dis- 
tribution of  such  drugs  for  necessary  medical  uses. 

During  the  fiscal  year  the  activities  of  the  Bureau  resulted  in  an 
increased  number  of  marihuana  law  violations  reported  and  of  arrests 
for  violations  of  the  mariliuana  laws.  There  were  reductions  in  the 
number  of  narcotic  law  violations  reported  and  in  the  number  of 
arrests  for  violations  of  the  narcotic  laws,  in  the  number  of  vehicles 
seized  for  violations  of  these  laws,  and  in  the  quantities  of  narcotic 
drugs  and  marihuana  seized  and  eradicated.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       251 

Opium  supplies  continued  to  be  available  for  import  and  additional 
quantities  were  imported  during  the  year.  Coca  leaf  supplies  similarly 
continued  to  be  ample,  both  for  medicinal  purposes  and  for  the  manu- 
facture of  nonnarcotic  flavoring  extracts. 

The  importation,  manufacture,  and  distribution  of  both  opium  and 
coca  leaves  and  their  derivatives  are  subject  to  a  system  of  quotas  and 
allocations  designed  to  secure  their  proper  distribution  for  medical 
needs. 

Exports  of  narcotic  drugs  decreased  during  the  year  as  compared 
with  1943  but  remained  considerably  above  the  pre-war  level.  Man- 
ufacture of  oi)ium  derivatives  continued  high  due  to  export  require- 
ments, the  needs  for  military  and  naval  operations,  and  the  increased 
medical  use  of  codeine  bv  the  civilian  population. 

The  shortage  of  addiction  drugs  in  the  illicit  markets  was  reflected  in 
a  marked  increase  in  the  number  of  thefts  of  narcotics  from  the  stocks 
of  wholesalers,  retailers,  and  practitioners  entitled  to  have  them  for 
medicinal  needs.  There  was  also  a  sharp  increase  in  the  quantity  of 
drugs  reported  stolen. 

DIVISION  OF'PERSONNEL 

The  Division  of  Personnel  is  charged  with  the  supervision  of  the 
personnel  activities  of  the  entire  Department,  and  its  general  functions 
include  initiating,  planning,  and  formulating  personnel  policies,  pro- 
cedures, practices,  and  programs,  and  coordinating  and  exercising 
control  over  the  Department's  personnel  operations  so  that  they  will 
conform  to  approved  policies  and  procedures.  The  functions  of  the 
Division  are  principally  in  the  nature  of  advisory  and  control  activities, 
with  the  personnel  operations  of  the  Department  being  actually  car- 
ried out  in  the  personnel  units  of  the  several  branches,  bureaus,  and 
offices.  This  decentralization  of  personnel  work,  with  control  being 
retained  in  the  central  personnel  office,  is  in  line  with  the  Depart- 
ment's policy  of  facilitating  and  strengthening  the  functioning  of  the 
operating  organizations. 

The  activities  of  the  Division  include  those  relating  to  position- 
classification,  salary  administration,  recruitment,  placement,  appoint- 
ment, promotion,  separation,  retirement,  discipline,  investigation, 
efficiency  rating,  employee  relations,  leave,  forms  and  records,  train- 
ing, and  civil  service  rides  and  regulations. 

Throughout  the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  Division  was  engaged  in  fos- 
tering, developing,  and  maintaining  a  comprehensive  program  of 
personnel  management,  in  the  interests  of  bettering  employee- 
employer  relations,  attaining  higher  standards  of  performance,  and 
increasing  the  over-all  efficiency  and  effectiveness  of  administration 
for  the  entire  Department. 

During  the  year  the  Division  considered  and  acted  upon  161,635 
personnel  recommendations  relating  to  the  appointment,  promotion, 
reassignment,  retirement,  suspension,  and  separation  of  employees. 

COMMITTEE  ON  PRACTICE 

The  Committee  on  Practice  is  an  administrative  and  judicial  body. 
It  has  charge  of  the  enrollment  of  attorneys  and  agents  for  practice 
before  the  Treasury  Department  and  conducts  hearings  in  disbarment 
proceedings.     An  attorney,  not  a  member  of  the  committee,  repre-

findings  of  fact  and  recommendations  to  the  Secretary  in  proceedings 
for  the  revocation  or  suspension  of  such  licenses.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


253 


Purchases  of  supplies  for  other  agencies  dechned  during  the  year 
by  $14,513,198  to  $24,746,536.  On  the  other  hand,  purchases  by  other 
agencies  from  the  General  Schedule  of  Supplies  of  articles  and  equip- 
ment under  contract  increased  by  $62,303,857,  reaching  an  all  time 
high  of  $296,977,,584.  Included  in  the  latter  amount  was  $1 18,082,123 
of  purchases  of  aeroplane  tires. 

A  discussion  of  purchases  of  lend-lease  material  and  of  strategic 
and  critical  materials  appears  on  pages  123  and  125. 

Purchases  for  foreign  war  relief  increased  by  $1,778,725  during  the 
year  to  $4,347,557.  These  purchases  included  clothing  and  medical 
supplies  obtained  for  distribution  through  the  American  Red  Cross  to 
nationals  of  countries  suffering  from  the  hardships  of  war. 

The  emergency  relief  and  defense  housing  programs  were  drastically 
reduced  because  they  were  under  liquidation. 

General  supjjhj  fund. — This  special  fund  was  established  pursuant 
to  the  act  of  February  27,  1929  (45  Stat.  1341),  and  is  available  to 
finance  the  stock,  consolidated  purchases,  and  services  authorized 
under  Executive  Order  No.  6166,  dated  June  10,  1933.  It  is  a  revolv- 
ing fund  from  which  payments  are  made  for  commodities  purchased 
and  services  performed  for  other  agencies  and  to  which  collections 
made  direct  from  the  applicable  appropriations  are  credited  by  transfer 
and  counter-warrant. 

A  statement  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  general  supply  fund

Storage  and  warehousing. — Procurement  Division  Regional  Ware- 
house and  Supply  Centers  have  been  established  in  New  York,  N.  Y,, 
Fort  Worth,  Tex.,  and  San  Francisco,  Calif.,  and  as  a  result  of  a  survey 
of  Federal  civil  establishment  warehouses  which  maintain  stores  for 
use,  consumption,  or  issue,  the  Procurement  Division  has  undertaken 
a  Federal  warehousing  program  in  which  it  is  consolidating  these 
agency  warehouses  into  its  Regional  Warehouse  and  Supply  Centers  or 
coordinating  them  with  its  Centers,  In  addition  to  providing  ware- 
house service  to  the  agencies  whose  warehouses  are  consolidated  or 
coordinated,  each  Regional  Warehouse  and  Supply  Center  is  organized 
to  render  complete  purchasing,  contract,  and  stores  service  to  the 
field  offices  of  all  Government  agencies.  Stores  are  issued  direct  to 
the  using  office,  eliminating  rehandling  by  intermediary  facilities. 

The  District  of  Columbia  warehouse  operates  to  meet  the  common 
supply  needs  of  Goverimient  agencies  in  the  greater  Washington  area 
and  within  the  territory  delineated  by  economical  shipping  distances 


254       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

from  Washington  in  relation  to  the  estabUshed  Regional  Warehouse 
and  Supply  Centers  in  other  locations.  In  addition  it  serves  as  a 
national  warehouse  to  distribute  articles  which,  by  their  nature, 
source  of  supply,  or  quantities  required  can  be  more  economically 
supplied  to  the  regional  supply  centers  in  that  manner. 

The  Inspection  Division  is  equipped  to  inspect  materials,  supplies, 
and  equipment  received  for  stock  by  the  Procurement  Division  ware- 
house. Inspections  are  also  conducted  upon  the  request  of  any  Gov- 
ernment agency  for  materials  that  are  purchased  by  the  Procurement 
Division  and  delivered  direct  to  the  ordering  agency.  In  many  cases 
bidders  are  required  to  submit  samples  of  their  merchandise.  These 
samples  are  received,  checked,  and  tagged  with  proper  identification 
and  are  placed  on  exliibit  so  that  they  may  be  examined  by  repre- 
sentatives of  all  Goverimient  agencies. 

The  Fuel  Yard  is  the  distributing  agency  for  coal,  fuel  oils,  wood, 
charcoal,  and  coke  used  by  the  Federal  and  District  Govenunents 
at  office  buildings,  housing  units,  institutions,  hospitals,  schools, 
police  stations,  fire  houses,  and  Army  and  Navy  posts  in  the  District 
of  Columbia  and  vicinity. 

Surplus  proj^ertij  disposal. — During  the  year  the  Procurement  Di- 
vision disposed  of  $88,260,017  of  surplus  property  as  compared  with 
$9,076,000  ■■  in  1943.  A  discussion  of  the  activities  in  this  connection 
will  be  found  on  page  123  of  this  report. 

Public  utilities. — The  Procurement  Division  performs  the  technical 
work  required  to  achieve  the  most  efficient  and  economical  use  and 
procurement  of  utility  services  for  the  various  agencies  of  the  Federal 
Government.  Such  services  include  wire  communication  by  tele- 
phone and  telegraph,  as  weU  as  electric  power  and  gas. 

Research  and  analysis  were  carried  on  during  the  year  to  develop 
bases  for  negotiating  consolidated  contracts,  and  other  arrangements 
whereby  the  cost  of  the  above  services  could  be  minimized.  The 
program  of  negotiating  such  contracts,  covering  the  Government's  use 
of  particular  utility  services  in-  the  larger  metropolitan  areas,  was 
vigorously  prosecuted.  This  program  should  result  not  only  in 
decreased  cash  outlays  for  utility  services,  but  also  in  considerable 
savings  in  administrative  time  and  effort  in  contracting  for  those 
services.  Supervision  was  maintained  over  the  existing  consolidated 
contracts  covering  electric,  telephone,  and  gas  service  taken  by 
Federal  agencies  in  Baltimore,  New  York,  Philadelphia,  and  the 
District  of  Columbia. 

The  Division's  efforts  have  resulted  in  considerable  total  savings. 
Certain  of  those,  mentioned  in  the  last  report,  are  recurring  savings. 
Thus,  again  this  year  telephone  service  in  the  District  cost  $200,000 
per  year  less  than  it  would  have  prior  to  the  negotiation  in  June  1943 
of  a  more  equitable  schedule  of  charges  for  certain  items  of  telephone 
service. 

As  a  result  of  further  study  of  electric  costs  in  the  District,  and 
after  an  extensive  hearing  before  the  Public  Utilities  Commission,  in 
which  hearing  the  Division  actively  participated,  electric  rates  were 
reduced  by  over  $1,000,000  per  year.  The  Federal  Government's 
share  of  the  reduction  will  be  in  the  neighborhood  of  $350,000  per  year. 

The  above  benefits  were  obtained  through  the  general  efforts  of  the 

f  Revised. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       255 

Division,  with  no  special  staff  whose  direct  and  sole  responsibility  was 
the  economical  procurement  of  utility  services.  As  a  result  of  such  a 
limitation  little  was  or  could  have  been  done  in  other  centers  of  great 
governmental  activity.  The  potentialities  of  this  work  were  so  large 
that  the  necessary  approval  and  appropriation  were  obtained  for  the 
formal  organization,  as  of  July  1,  1944,  of  a  Public  Utilities  Division 
within  the  Procurement  Division.  Certain  key  personnel  were 
recruited,  and  it  is  expected  that  even  greater  savings  and  administra- 
tive simplicity  than  heretofore  will  be  achieved. 

Renegotiation  of  contracts. — ^Under  existing  law  directing  the  renego- 
tiation of  contracts  the  Procurement  Division  has  completed  work 
with  234  contractors.  Of  this  number,  it  was  determined  that  forty- 
six  contractors  had  realized  excessive  profits  totaling  $9,224,000.  In 
addition  to  these,  a  review  of  other  contracts  resulted  in  reductions  in 
contract  value  amounting  to  $298,569,  the  total  of  excessive  profits 
and  reductions  determined  being  $9,522,569. 

Contract  termination. — Frequently  Procurement  Division  contracts 
have  to  be  canceled  before  completion,  because,  for  a  variety  of  reasons, 
there  is  no  further  need  for  the  particular  materials  involved.  The 
Procurement  Division  has  effected  86  such  terminations,  50  of  which 
involved  no  additional  costs  to  the  Government.  Of  tlie  remaining 
36  on  which  termination  claims  have  been  received,  17  were  settled  as 
of  June  30,  1944.  Under  directive  orders  of  the  Director  of  War 
Mobilization  and  prior  authorizations  there  has  been  established  in  the 
Procurement  Division  a  Contract  Termination  Settlement  Review 
Board  consisting  of  five  members  all  of  whom  with  the  exception  of  the 
chairman  serve  in  an  ex  officio  capacity. 

Specifications.- — A  continuing  survey  of  the  changes  in  the  avail- 
ability of  materials,  made  in  collaboration  with  the  War  Production 
Board,  resulted  in  the  issuance  of  223  amendments  to  existing  Federal 
Specifications  and  the  cancelation  of  192  Emergency  Alternate  Federal 
Specifications,  which  were  originally  issued  during  the  most  critical 
period  of  shortages  of  materials.  A  total  of  74  new  and  97  revised 
Federal  Specifications  were  promulgated,  bringing  the  number  of 
Federal  Specifications  in  effect  as  of  June  30,  1944,  to  1,577. 

During  the  year,  52  new  and  revised  Procurement  Division  Specifi- 
cations were  issued  for  materials  and  supplies  being  currently  procured 
under  the  General  Schedule  of  Supplies.  A  Procurement  Division 
Specification  prepared  for  duplicating  process  liquid  has  resulted  in 
savings  of  many  thousands  of  dollars  by  the  development  and  in- 
clusion of  a  broadened  range  of  satisfactory  commercial  materials. 
There  were  327  Procurement  Division  Specifications  in  effect  as  of 
June  30,  1944. 

Standards  Division. — ^The  duties  of  the  Standards  Division  concern 
the  preparation  and  revision  of  publications  listing  and  classifying 
supplies  procured,  stored,  and  issued  by  the  various  departments  and 
establishments  of  the  Federal  Government.  Considerable  work  has 
been  done  for  the  Army  Service  Forces  in  the  development  and  prep- 
aration of  catalogs,  indexes,  and  cross  reference  tables  to  meet  Army 
needs.  Material  has  been  prepared  to  enable  accurate  classification 
of  property  to  be  iaventoried  for  disposal  in  connection  with  the  surplus 
property  program.  This  is  vital  to  the  identification  and  classifica- 
tion of  the  multitude  of  articles  which  will  be  available  for  disposition. 


256  REPORT   OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY 

Printing  and  binding. — Procurement  of  printing  and  binding  for  the 
various  bureaus  and  divisions  of  the  Treasury  Department  and  other 
agencies  totaled  $6,922,840.  Of  this  amount  $5,684,731  represents 
printing  obtained  from  the  Government  Printing  Office  and  $1,238,109 
that  was  authorized  to  be  obtained  from  other  sources. 

Conservation  of  supplies  and  material. — A  plan  to  stimulate  interest 
in  the  conservation  of  supplies  and  equipment  was  inaugurated  and 
presented  to  all  departments  and  agencies  of  the  Government,  includ- 
ing the  Government  of  the  District  of  Columbia.  The  plan  was 
adopted  and  has  been  instrumental  in  reducing  the  quantities  of  sup- 
plies used,  the  salvage  of  usable  material,  and  in  encouraging  better 
care  of  equipment,  especially  typewriting  machines.  Coordination 
and  encouragement  of  the  work  is  maintained  by  the  Procurement 
Division  through  its  general  conservation  liaison  officer. 

Blind-made  products. — During  the  fiscal  year  purchases  of  products 
made  by  blind  persons  under  the  Wagner-O'Day  Act  amounted  to 
$7,314,303.  Participating  in  the  program  are  fifty-two  institutions 
in  which  employment  was  given  to  2,452  blind  persons. 

DIVISION  OF  RESEARCH  AND  STATISTICS 

The  Division  of  Research  and  Statistics,  in  the  Office  of  the  Secre- 
tary, serves  as  a  technical  staff  for  the  Secretary,  the  Under  Secretary,' 
and  other  Treasury  officials  on  matters  relating  to  the  econom'c  aspects 
of  fiscal  operations  and  policies,  particularly  as  they  concern  bor- 
rowing, and  on  the  estimated  volume  and  source  of  future  revenues, 
actuarial  analyses  involved  in  certain  Treasury  functions,  and  various 
general  economic  problems  arising  in  connection  with  Treasuiy 
activities. 

The  sources  of  funds  available  for  Federal  borrowing  are  analyzed 
so  as  to  show  where  and  in  what  volume  income  is  being  generated  and 
savings  are  being  accumulated.  These  findings  are  interpieted  for 
use  in  setting  goals  for  borrowing  and  in  planning  the  programs  to 
reach  these  goals,  and  for  the  use  of  the  bond  sales  organization  in 
connection  with  war  loan  drives  and  other  sales  activities. 

The  suitability  of  various  types  of  securities  for  difl'erent  classes  of 
investors  and  for  specific  operations  and  programs  are  analyzed  and 
recommendations  are  made  with  respect  thereto,  taking  into  account 
both  the  adaptability  of  the  securities  for  attaining  the  goals  set  for 
each  particular  operation  and  the  long-run  eft'ects  of  the  issuance  of 
each  type  of  security  on  the  economy  and  on  the  cost  of  financing  the 
war.  Studies  are  made  of  the  level  and  structure  of  interest  rates 
and  of  the  factors  affecting  them.  Analyses  and  recommendations 
are  prepared  with  respect  to  legislation  having  a  present  or  prospective 
effect  upon  the  market  for  Government  securities. 
-  Detailed  information  on  sales  of  Government  securities,  received 
through  a  statistical  reporting  system  set  up  in  the  Federal  Reserve 
Banks  and  in  the  Bureau  of  the  Public  Debt  in  the  Treasury  Depart- 
ment, are  analyzed  in  the  Division  so  that  the  Secretary  and  other 
Treasury  officials  can  have  at  all  times  a  complete  picture  of  the  volume 
and  distribution  of  sales;  can  measure  progress  towards  the  long-range 
goals  set  for  Government  borrowing;  can  gauge  the  suitabihty  of 
various  kinds  of  securities  for  the  classes  of  investors  for  which  they 
were  designed;  and  can  determine  the  effectiveness  of  various  methods 
of  offering. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       257 

Estimates  of  tax  revenues  under  existing  tax  laws  are  prepared  in 
the  Division  for  use  in  planning  financing  operations  in  the  Treasury 
and  for  incorporation  in  the  President's  Budget  messages  to  Congress. 
In  connection  with  proposals  for  new  tax  legislation,  estimates  are 
prepared  by  the  Division  at  the  request  of  Treasury  officials  and  com- 
mittees of  Congress,  to  show  what  increases  or  decreases  in  revenue 
may  be  expected  to  result  from  various  suggestions  for  changes  in  or 
additions  to  the  existing  tax  structure. 

The  Government  Actuary,  who  is  on  the  staff  of  the  Division,  is 
a  member  of- the  Board  of  Actuaries  established  under  the  Civil  Service 
Retirement  Act,  and  is  the  Treasury  Department's  representative  on 
the  Actuarial  Advisory  Committee  of  the  Railroad  Retirement  Board. 
He  is  responsible  for  the  estimates  which  have  to  be  prepared  each 
year,  in  accordance  with,  statutory  provisions,  to  show  the  amount  of 
the  annual  appropriations  required  to  be  made  to  the  foreign  service 
retirement  and  disability  fund  and  to  the  District  of  Columbia 
teachers'  retirement  fund,  and  makes  various  other  actuarial  analyses. 

SECRET  SERVICE  DIVISION 

The  Secret  Service  Division  is  charged  principally  with  the  sup- 
pression of  counterfeiting,  forging,  or  alteration  of  obligations  and 
securities  of  the  United  States  and  foreign  countries,  and  of  counter- 
feiting of  coins;  investigations  of  the  forgery  of  endorsements  on,  or 
the  fraudulent  negotiation  of.  United  States  Treasury  checks,  of 
violations  of  certain  other  Federal  statutes,  of  thefts  of  Government 
property  under  the  control  of  the  Treasury  Department,  of  loss  of 
valuables  in  shipments  by  Government  agencies,  and  of  applicants 
for  positions  in  the  Treasury  Department;  and  the  protection  of  the 
President  of  the  United  States  and  his  immediate  family,  of  the  Treas- 
ury Building  and  other  buildings  housing  Treasury  Department 
activities,  of  the  production,  traasportation,  and  storage  of  obligations 
and  securities  of  the  United  States,  and  of  valuable  papers  stored  in 
Treasury  Department  vaults  and  buildings. 

Crime  preverdion  i^rogram. — The  Secret  Service  crime  prevention 
program  continues  to  be  an  effective  method  for  combatting  the 
activities  of  forgers  and  counterfeiters.  With  mustering-out  pay- 
ments to  soldiers  and  sailors  added  to  the  approximately  300  million 
Goverimient  checks  issued  to  dependents  of  soldiers  and  sailors,  to 
Social  Security  beneficiaries,  to  farmers  and  others,  the  need  for  this 
program  is  greater  than  ever  and  the  Secret  Service  is  stressing  the 
value  of  preventive  methods  in  its  "Know  Your  Endorser"  campaign 
against  check  thieves  and  forgers. 

Newspapers,  magazines,  radio  stations,  book  publishers,  and  organ- 
izations including  the  American  Bankers  Association  have  rendered 
valuable  help  in  the  Nation-wide  effort  to  show  the  public  the  tricks 
of  check  thieves  and  forgers. 

"Know  Your  Money"  study  has  become  a  part  of  the  curricula  of 
some  12,000  high  schools  in  all  parts  of  the  United  States  including 
those  of  New  York  City.  In  New  England  thousands  of  high  school 
students  participated  in  34  essay  contests  on  the  same  subject  for 
which  local  bankers  offered  cash  or  war  bonds  as  prizes. 

Enforcement  activities.- — Forgers  arrested  during  the  fiscal  year  1944 
totaled  1,691  as  compared  with  1,004  in  1943.     Convictions  for  check 

613185—45 18 


258       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

forgery  were  1,480  in  1944  and  881  in  the  previous  year.  In  Memphis, 
Tenn.,  an  employee  of  the  Memphis  District  U.  S.  Engineers  was 
arrested  for  forging  checks  totahng  $7,500.  His  operations  were 
discovered  b}^  the  Secret  Service  when  fellow  employees  received 
notifications  of  their  1.943  incomes  for  tax  purposes  and  complained 
that  the  amounts  reported  were  far  in  excess  of  their  actual  earnings. 
In  Atlanta,  Ga.,  Secret  Service  agents  arrested  a  check  thief  for 
stealing  and  forging  nine  $100  checks  issued  to  soldiers  as  mustering- 
out  pay.  Many  of  the  forgers  arrested  during  the  year  were  juveniles. 
In  Louisville,  Ky.,  sLx  boys  ranging  in  age  from  12  to  14  years  were 
arrested  for  stealing  and  forging  a  number  of  Government  and  com- 
mercial checks.  In  Altoona,  Pa.,  two  19-year-old  girls  were  arrested 
for  the  theft  and  fraudulent  negotiation  of  quantities  of  Treasury 
checks,  post  office  money  orders,  and  commercial  checks. 

Counterfeiters  arrested  during  the  year  totaled  55  as  compared 
with  159  in  1943.  Convictions  for  counterfeiting  were  54  in  1944 
and  123  in  the  previous  year.  There  were  four  new  counterfeit  note 
issues  during  1944.  In  two  of  these  cases  only  one  counterfeit  note 
each  appeared.  Makers  of  the  third  issue  were  captured  in  Seattle. 
The  fourth  issue  originated  in  Barcelona,  Spain,  and  did  not  circulate 
in  the  United  States.  In  Bremerton,  Wash.,  a  counterfeiting  plant 
for  the  manufacture  of  very  deceptive  $10  and  $20  notes  was  captured 
and  its  three  operators  were  arrested  and  sentenced  to  five,  six,  and 
ten  years.  Agents  also  seized  5  plates  for  counterfeit  notes,  2  zinc 
plates  for  "rubber  money,"  simulating  currency,  5  zinc  plates  for 
aeroplane  ration  stamp  No.  2,  14  genuine  electrotypes  for  war  ration

war  ration  book  paper  stolen  from  the  Government  Printing  Office, 
1  power  press,  4  cameras,  and  29  reproductions  of  faces  of  United 
States  paper  money,  the  reverse  sides  bearing  Axis  propaganda  in 
various  languages.  In  cooperation  with  the  Office  of  Price  Adminis- 
tration, the  Secret  Service  also  seized  thousands  of  counterfeit  ration 
stamps  for  gasoline  and  other  commodities.  Such  stamps  were  held 
by  the  Office  of  Price  Administration  for  proper  disposition.    . 

Secret  Service  agents  arrested  five  employees  of  the  Government 
Printing  Office  for  making  counterfeit  war  ration  shoe  stamps  No.  18 
from  genuine  electrotypes  on  genuine  paper,  both  stolen  from  the 
Government  Printing  Office  by  the  offenders.  The  five  are  under 
indictment  awaiting  trial. 

In  cooperation  with  investigators  of  the  Office  of  Price  Administra- 
tion, Secret  Service  agents  arrested  192  persons  for  the  manufacture, 
use,  or  distribution  of  counterfeit  war  ration  stamps  and  convicted 
149  offenders. 

The  public  losses  through  acceptance  of  counterfeit  bills  were 
reduced  from  $22,079  in  1943  to  $18,456  in  1944,  a  decrease  of  16.4

percent.  Losses  from  counterfeit  coins  dropped  more  than  45.4 
percent  from  $16,310  in  1943  to  $8,906  in  1944.  The  total  representa- 
tive value  of  false  bills  and  coins  seized  and  circulated  in  1943  was 
$65,693  and  for  the  current  year  this  total  aggregated  only  $47,061, 
a  drop  of  28.4  percent.  This  was  the  seventh  successive  year  showing 
a  reduction  in  counterfeit  violations. 

During  the  year  29,713  investigations  were  completed  and  2,415 
offenders  were  arrested.  Convictions  were  obtained  in  97.9  percent 
of  the  2,121  crim-inal  cases  brought  to  trial  as  compared  with  98.0 
percent  of  the  1,515  cases  in  the  previous  year.  The  1944  record  of 
convictions  was  achieved  despite  the  fact  that  41  percent  of  the  male 
employees  of  the  Secret  Service  were  in  the  armed  services. 

Fines  in  criminal  cases  in  1944  lotaled  $47,968  and  imprisonments 
totaled  about  1,829  years.  Additional  sentences  totaling  about  1,984 
years  were  suspended  or  probated.

Protective  activities. — In  the  protection  of  the  President  of  the  United 
States,  Secret  Service  agents  encountered  and  solved  many  new 
security  problems  incident  to  his  historic  trips  to  Canada,  Cairo, 
and  Teheran. 

The  Uniformed  Force  of  the  Secret  Service  protected  a  total  of 
$492,500  millions  in  money,  stamps,  bonds,  and  other  Government 
securities  in  production  and  storage  and  over  $204,367  millions  in 
transit.  Other  security  duties  of  the  Uniformed  Force  involved  pro- 
tection of  the  Bureau  of  Engraving  and  Printing,  the  Treasury  Build- 
ing, and  other  buildings  housing  Treasury  Department  activities, 
including  the  Merchandise  Mart  in  Chicago,  111.,  where  a  branch  of 
the  Bureau  of  the  Public  Debt  is  in  operation. 

OFFICE  OF  THE  TAX  LEGISLATIVE  COUNSEL 

The  Office  of  the  Tax  Legislative  Counsel  provides  the  legal  and 
technical  assistance  necessary  in  connection  with  planning  and  co- 
ordinating the  recommendations  of  the  Treasury  Department  for 
internal  revenue  legislation.  It  represents  the  Department  before 
congressional  committees  considering  tax  legislation  and  assists  in 
drafting  such  legislation. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  efforts  of  the  Office  were  directed 
primarily  to  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  and  the  Individual  Income  Tax 
Act  of  1944.     In  addition  to  advice  as  to  the  content  of  the  Individual 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       261 

Income  Tax  Act  of  1944  and  assistance  in  drafting  its  provisions,  the 
Office  also  took  part  in  the  work  begun  on  forms  and  regulations 
necessary  to  the  administration  of  the  simplified  individual  income 
tax  system. 

The  Office  reviews  all  internal  revenue  regulations  and  advises  the 
Secretary  with  respect  thereto;  in  the  fiscal  year  it  reviewed  over  one 
hundred  Treasury  decisions  revising  such  regulations.  It  also  super- 
vised the  preparation  of  Department  reports  upon  79  bills  concerning 
internal  revenue  laws;  participated  in  numerous  conferences  with 
individuals,  private  organizations,  and  other  governmental  agencies 
on  taxation;  began  extensive  studies,  in  collaboration  with  committees 
of  tax  experts  outside  the  Government;  assisted  in  the  preparation  of 
Regulations  111,  112,  and  115  relating  to  the  income  tax,  excess  profits 
tax,  and  collection  of  income  tax  at  source  on  wages;  and  handled  a 
large  volume  of  correspondence  containing  recommendations  for 
revenue  legislation  and  inquiries  about  existing  legislation. 

DIVISION  OF  TAX  RESEARCH 

The  Division  of  Tax  Research  deals  with  the  economic  and  tech- 
nical aspects  of  taxation.  Its  function  is  to  assemble  the  facts  and 
prepare  the  analyses  (other  than  legal)  necessary  (a)  to  formulate 
Treasury  tax  policy  and  (b)  to  meet  requests  fi-om  such  sources  as  the 
congressional  committees  dealing  with  taxation.  In  this  connection 
the  Division  conducts  surveys  and  prepares  reports  and  studies  for 
the  use  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  the  Under  Secretary,  and 
other  designated  officials  of  the  Treasury  Department.  Upon  request, 
the  Division  also  provides  information  on  various  tax  matters  for  the 
use  of  the  President,  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  of  the  House  of 
Representatives,  the  Finance  Committee  of  the  Senate,  the  Joint 
Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation,  and  several  Federal 
agencies. 

To  carry  out  its  functions,  the  Division  is  required  to  make  basic 
surveys  of  the  tax  problems  of  the  Federal  Government,  to  devise 
alternative  methods  of  meeting  revenue  requirements,  and  to  develop 
methods  of  adjusting  the  tax  system  to  changing  economic  conditions. 
The  tax  system  as  a  whole  is  analyzed  with  a  view  to  obtaining 
revenue  yields  large  enough  to  meet  prospective  revenue  requirements 
and  to  making  adjustments  in  a  manner  which  will  be  fair  to  tax- 
payers and  will  avoid  undesirable  economic  effects.  Individual  taxes 
are  studied  (1)  to  determine  their  effects  on  the  particular  groups  of 
taxpayers  involved,  (2)  to  avoid  inequity  among  taxpayers  within  a 
given  group,  (3)  to  ascertain  and  develop  methods  of  meeting  the 
administrative  and  compliance  problems  of  the  tax,  and  (4)  to  devise 
ways  of  integrating  the  particular  tax  with  the  tax  system  as  a  whole. 
These  studies  require  economic  analyses  of  the  eft'ects  of  each  tax; 
technical  analyses  of  the  more  complicated  problems  inherent  in  vari- 
ous tax  measures;  and  statistical  analyses  of  the  distribution  of  the 
burden  of  specific  taxes,  of  the  total  Federal  tax  load,  and  of  the  com- 
bined Federal,  State,  and  local  burden. 

The  interrelationships  of  Federal,  State,  and  local  taxes  are  studied 
with  a  view  to  possible  improvements  in  intergovernmental  fiscal 
relations.  Specific  State  and  local  taxes  are  also  examined  not  only 
to  determine  the  combined  eft'ect  of  such  taxes  and  Federal  taxes  but 


262       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

also  to  assure  the  Federal  Government  of  the  benefit  of  State  and 
local  tax  experience.  Likewise,  to  gain  the  benefit  of  foreign  experi- 
ence and  to  compare  tax  policies,  studies  are  made  of  foreign  tax 
systems  and  selected  taxes  in  foreign  countries. 

The  Director  and  members  of  the  Division  assist  in  the  presenta- 
tion of  the  Treasury's  tax  program  to  the  congressional  committees, 
and  are  frequently  called  upon  for  technical  assistance  to  those  com- 
mittees. Conferences  are  held  with  members  of  the  committees  and 
with  the  staff  of  the  Joint  Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation 
for  the  purpose  of  explaining  various  aspects  of  Treasury  tax  pro- 
posals and  assisting  in  the  analysis  of  tax  measures  under  congres- 
sional consideration.  Members  of  the  Division  also  participate  in 
conferences  with  taxpayers  who  desire  to  call  special  problems  to  the 
attention  of  the  Treasury  Department. 

The  Division  is  also  responsible  for  the  assembling  and  publication 
of  all  statistical  information  pertaining  to  Federal  taxation  and,  in 
this  connection,  exercises  general  supervision  over  the  statistical  work 
of  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue.  The  Division  handles  Treasury 
correspondence  relating  to  matters  of  taxation  not  involving  legal 
questions. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944  the  major  efforts  of  the  Division  were 
applied  to  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  and  the  Individual  Income  Tax 
Act  of  1944.  Work  on  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  dealt  primarily  with 
additional  means  of  raising  revenue  to  finance  the  war  and  help  com- 
bat inflation,  but  considerable  attention  was  also  directed  to  the 
problem  of  simplifying  the  individual  income  tax.  The  Revenue  Act 
of  1943  became  law  on  February  25,  1944,  over  the  President's  veto. 

Extensive  work  on  individual  income  tax  simplification  culminated 
in  legislative  action  during  the  first  half  of  1944.  The  Division  of 
Tax  Research,  cooperating  with  the  staffs  of  the  Bureau  of  Internal 
Revenue,  the  Office  of  the  Tax  Legislative  Counsel,  and  the  Joint 
Committee  on  Internal  Revenue  Taxation,  aided  the  congressional 
committees  in  developing  simplification  plans.  The  bill  embodying 
these  plans  became  law  on  May  29,  1944. 

WAR  FINANCE  DIVISION 

The  War  Finance  Division  of  the  Office  of  the  Secretary  is  charged 
with  the  responsibility  of  promoting  the  sale  of  all  securities  offered 
to  the  public  by  the  Treasury  Department  during  war  loan  drives 
and  of  United  States  savings  bonds  between  drives. 

This  Division  during  the  fiscal  year  devoted  the  major  part  of  its 
efforts  to  an  educational  and  informational  program  aimed  at  three 
main  objectives:  (1)  To  augment  public  participation  in  the  war 
financing  program,  (2)  to  draw  oft'  into  savings  the  increased  earnings 
of  the  public,  and  thereby  (3)  to  provide  the  people  with  a  reserve  of 
personal  savings  for  the  post-war  period. 

The  country-wide  bond  selling  organization  of  the  War  Finance 
Division  consists  almost  entirely  of  volunteers.  A  War  Finance 
Committee  is  in  operation  in  each  State  and  also  in  the  District 
of  Columbia,  Alaska,  Hawaii,  and  Puerto  Rico,  under  the  direction 
of  a  State  Chairm-an.  Working  with  the  State  Chairman  are  county 
and  local  volunteer  committees.  The  national  office  in  Washington 
provides  the  basic  promotion  material — pamphlets,  posters,  and 
other  publicity  media. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       263 

The  War  Finance  Division  is  divided  into  three  major  parts,  work- 
ing under  the  National  Director,  who  is  an  Assistant  to  the  Secretary, 
and  who  is  responsible  for  promoting  the  war  financing  program. 

The  Field  Division  operates  under  the  supervision  of  the  Assistant 
National  Director  (Field  Director)  who  is  responsible  for  the  organi- 
zation and  supervision  of  the  operation  of  the  various  field  offices  in 
the  States,  as  well  as  for  the  formulation  of  policies  and  the  prepai-a- 
tion  of  instructions  for  the  guidance  of  the  State  offices  in  promoting 
the  sale  of  Government  securities.  In  this  Division  are  a  number  of 
sections  with  more  or  less  specialized  spheres  of  activity.  The 
National  Organizations  Section  is  responsible  for  contacting  national 
labor  organizations,  patriotic  and  civic  groups,  and  business  and 
fraternal  organizations.  The  Payroll  Savings  Section  is  concerned 
with  the  important  task  of  promoting  at  the  national  level,  and 
assisting  State  organizations  to  promote,  the  i^ayroll  savings  plan  for 
the  installment  purchase  of  war  savings  bonds.  The  Women's  Section 
is  concerned  with  the  integration  of  women's  organizations  in  all 
phases  of  sales  promotion.  Other  sections  of  the  Field  Division  deal 
with  schools,  motion  pictures  and  special  events,  retail  stores,  agri- 
cultural organizations,  and  other  activities. 

The  Publicity  and  Promotion  Division  formulates  publicity  and 
promotion  campaigns  for  recommendation  to  the  State  committees 
and  for  use  at  the  national  level.  This  Division  is  responsible  for 
securing  the  cooperation  of  all  publicity  sources;  for  stimulating 
national  advertising  by  radio,  newspapers,  magazines,  bill  boards, 
and  other  media;  and  for  the  designing  of  posters,  albums,  pamphlets, 
etc.,  used  in  promoting  the  sale  of  Government  securities. 

The  Administrative  Division,  under  an  Assistant  to  the  National 
Director,  is  charged  with  all  administrative  functions  of  the  War 
Finance  program. 

During  the  fiscal  year  there  were  three  war  loans,  during  which  the 
sales  of  securities  were  confined  to  nonbank  investors.  The  Third 
War  Loan  drive  in  September  1943  had  a  goal  of  $15  billions,  and 
actual  sales  were  $18.9  billions;  the  Fourth  War  Loan  in  January  1944 
had  a  goal  of  $14  billions,  while  actual  sales  were  $16.7  billions;  and 
the  Fifth  War  Loan  in  June  1944  had  a  goal  of  $16  billions,  with  sales 
of  $20.6  billions. 

Sales  of  savings  bonds  of  Series  E,  F,  and  G  during  the  fiscal  year 
amounted  to  $15,498  milhons,  an  increase  of  $3,709  millions  over  the 
previous  year.  Sales  of  war  savings  stamps  during  the  year  aggregated 
$409  millions,  a  decrease  of  $181  millions  as  compared  with  the  previous

REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 


INTERDEPARTMENTAL  WAR  SAVINGS  BOND  COMMITTEE 

The  Interdepartmental  Committee  for  the  Voluntary  Payroll 
Savings  Plan,  estabhshed  by  Executive  Order  No.  9135,  dated  April 
16,  1942,  continued  its  work  during  the  year  in  promoting  the  plan  for 
the  purchase  of  savings  bonds  by  the  civilian  employees  of  the  Govern- 
ment, and  cooperated  further  with  the  War  and  Navy  Departments  in 
extending  the  plan  to  the  armed  forces.  The  Committer  also  took  an 
active  part  in  the  war  loan  drives  by  soliciting  the  employees  for 
extra  purchases  of  bonds  for  cash. 

Federal  civilian  employees  increased  their  monthly  payroll  allot- 
ments from  $40,463,000  in  June  1943  to  $52,912,000  in  June  1944. 
At  the  close  of  the  fiscal  year  2,220,000  civilian  employees  were  invest- 
ing 11.6  percent  of  their  current  gross  pay  each  pay  day.  The  popu- 
larity of  this  systematic  method  of  saving  is  growing  among  the  Federal 
employees,  the  number  of  Federal  civilian  participants  having  in- 
creased by  266,000  over  the  previous  year. 

During  the  year,  with  the  approval  of  the  Postmaster  General,  the 
plan  was  inaugurated  in  the  Baltimore,  Aid.,  and  Washington,  D.  C, 
post  offices  with  notable  success,  and  it  is  hoped  that  the  benefits  of 
the  plan  will  be  made  available  to  the  employees  in  other  post  offices 
at  an  early  date. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  Federal  civihan  employees 
participating  in  the  payroll  savings  plan,  the  amounts  of  their 
monthly  allotments  for  war  savings  bonds,  and  the  average  monthly 
investment  per  employee.

now  or  hereafter  imposed.  The  bonds  shall  be  subject  to  estate,  inheritance, 
gift  or  other  excise  taxes,  whether  Federal  or  State,  but  shall  be  exempt  from  all 
taxation  now  or  hereafter  imposed  on  the  principal  or  interest  thereof  by  any 
State,  or  any  of  the  possessions  of  the  United  States,  or  by  any  local  taxing

closing  of  the  books  for  payment  during  such  closed  period  will  be  paid  only  at

of  the  books  to  the  date  of  payment.  In  either  case  checks  for  the  full  six  months' 
interest  due  on  the  last  day  of  the  closed  period  will  be  forwarded  to  the  owner  in 
due  course.  All  bonds  submitted  must  be  accompanied  by  Form  PD  1782,^ 
properly  completed,  signed  and  sworn  to,  and  by  a  certificate  of  the  appointment 
of  the  personal  representatives,  under  seal  of  the  court,  dated  not  more  than  six 
months  prior  to  the  submission  of  the  bonds,  which  shall  show  that  at  the  date 
thereof  the  appointment  was  still  in  force  and  effect.  Upon  payment  of  the  bonds 
appropriate  memorandum  receipt  will  be  forwarded  to  the  representatives,  which 
will  be  followed  in  due  course  by  formal  receipt  from  the  Collector  of  Internal 
Revenue.

to  the  general  regulations  of  the  Treasury  Department,  now  or  hereafter  prescribed, 
governing  United  States  bonds.

of  days  in  the  half  year.  For  a  fractional  part  of  any  half  year,  computation  is  on  the  basis  of  the  actual 
number  of  days  in  such  half  year. 

2  The  transfer  books  are  closed  from  Feb.  16  to  Mar.  15,  and  from  Aug.  16  to  Sept.  15  (both  dates  inclusive)

1  Revised  Dec.  27,  1944,  and  Jan.  16,  1945. 


312       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Tenders  will  be  received  without  deposit  from  incorporated  banks  and  trust 
companies  and  from  responsible  and  recognized  dealers  in  investment  securities. 
Tenders  from  others  must  be  accompanied  by  payment  of  2  percent  of  the  face 
amount  of  Treasury  bills  applied  for,  unless  the  tenders  are  accompanied  by  an 
express  guaranty  of  payment  by  an  incorporated  bank  or  trust  company. 

Immediately  after  the  closing  hour,  tenders  will  be  opened  at  the  Federal  Re- 
serve Banks  and  branches,  following  which  public  announcement  will  be  made  by 
the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  of  the  amount  and  price  range  of  accepted  bids. 

Those  submitting  tenders  will  be  advised  of  the  acceptance  or  rejection  thereof. 
The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  expressly  reserves  the  right  to  accept  or  reject  any 
or  all  tenders,  in  whole  or  in  part,  and  his  action  in  any  such  respect  shall  be  final. 
Subject  to  these  reservations,  tenders  for  $100,000  or  less  from  any  one  bidder  at 
99.905  entered  on  a  fixed-price  basis  will  be  accepted  in  full.  Payment  of  accepted 
tenders  at  the  prices  offered  must  be  made  or  completed  at  the  Federal  Reserve 
Bank  in  cash  or  other  immediately  available  funds  on  July  7,  1943. 

The  income  derived  from  Treasury  bills,  whether  interest  or  gain  from  the  sale 
or  other  disposition  of  the  bills,  shall  not  have  any  exemption,  as  such,  and  loss 
from  the  sale  or  other  disposition  of  Treasury  bills  shall  not  have  any  special 
treatment,  as  such,  under  Federal  tax  acts  now  or  hereafter  enacted.  The  bills 
shall  be  subject  to  estate,  inheritance,  gift,  or  other  excise  taxes,  whether  Federal 
or  State,  but  shall  be  exempt  from  all  taxation  now  or  hereafter  imposed  on  the 
principal  or  interest  thereof  by  any  State,  or  any  of  the  possessions  of  the  United 
States,  or  by  any  local  taxing  authority.  For  purposes  of  taxation  the  amount  of 
discount  at  "which  Treasury  bills  are  originally  sold  by  the  United  States  shall  be 
considered  to  be  interest.  Under  sections  42  and  il7  (a)  (1)  of  the  Internal 
Revenue  Code,  as  amended  by  section  115  of  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941,  the  amount 
of  discount  at  which  bills  issued  hereunder  are  sold  shall  not  be  considered  to 
accrue  until  such  bills  shall  be  sold,  redeemed  or  otherwise  disposed  of,  and 
such  bills  are  excluded  from  consideration  as  capital  assets.  Accordingly,  the 
owner  of  Treasury  bills  (other  than  life  insurance  companies)  issued  hereunder 
need  include  in  his  income  tax  return  only  the  difference  between  the  price  paid 
for  such  bills,  whether  on  original  issue  or  on  subsequent  purchase,  and  the  amount 
actually  received  either  upon  sale  or  redemption  at  maturitj'  during  the  taxable 
year  for  which  the  return  is  made,  as  ordinary  gain  or  loss. 

Treasury  Department  Circular  No.  418,  as  ame?ided,  and  this  notice,  prescribe 
the  terms  of  the  Treasury  bills  and  govern  the  conditions  of  their  issue.  Copies  of 
the  circular  may  be  obtained  from  any  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  branch.

Treasury  Department, 
Washington,  August  31,  1943. 

I.    OFFERING    OF    UNITED    STATES    SAVINGS    BONDS    OF    SERIES    E 

1.  The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  pursuant  to  the  authority  of  the  Second 
Liberty  Bond  Act,  as  amended,  offers  for  sale,  to  the  people  of  the  United  States, 
United  States  savings  bonds  of  Series  E,  currently  desitj;nated  war  savings  bonds, 
which  may  hereinafter  be  referred  to  as  bonds  of  Series  E,  and  their  sale  will  con- 
tinue until  terminated  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury.  Bonds  of  a  new  design, 
without  change  in  terms,  will  be  provided  for  issue  hereunder  in  regular  course 
without  further  notice  as  stocks  of  the  prior  bonds  of  Series  E  become  exhausted. 

2.  United  States  savings  bonds  of  Series  E  include  all  bonds  issued  as  defense 
savings  bonds  under  this  circular  as  originally  published,  and  all  those  issued  as 
war  savings  bonds  under  this  circular  as  previously  or  as  now  revised.  As  their 
terms  are  identical,  no  distinction  is  to  be  made  between  any  bonds  of  Series  E 
so  issued. 

II.    DESCRIPTION    AND    TERMS    OF    BONDS 

1.  Bonds  of  Series  E  will  be  issued  only  in  registered  form,  in  denominations  i 
of  $25,  $50,  $100,  $500,  and  $1,000  (maturity  values),  at  prices  hereinafter  set 
forth.  Each  bond  will  bear  the  facsimile  signature  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treas- 
ury, and  will  bear  an  imprint  (in  red)  of  the  Seal  of  the  Treasury.  At  the  time  of 
issue,  on  the  face  of  each  bond  the  issuing  agent  will  inscribe  the  name  and  address 
of  the  owner,  and  the  name  of  the  coowner  or  beneficiary,  if  any,  will  enter  the 
issue  date  (which  is  the  tirst  day  of  the  month  in  which  payment  of  the  issue 
price  is  received  by  the  Treasury  or  an  authorized  issuing  agent),  and  will  imprint 
his  dating  stamp  (to  show  date  the  bond  is  actually  inscribed).  Bonds  of  Series 
E  shall  be  valid  only  if  duly  inscribed  and  dated,  as  above  provided,  and  delivered 
by  the  Treasury  or  an  authorized  issuing  agent  following  receipt  of  payment 
therefor. 

2.  The  bonds  will,  in  each  instance,  be  dated  as  of  the  first  day  of  the  month 
in  which  payment  of  the  issue  price  is  received  by  an  agent  authorized  to  issue  the 
bonds,  which  date  is  hereinafter  referred  to  as  the  issue  date;  the  bonds  will 
mature  and  be  payable  at  face  value  10  years  from  such  issue  date.  The  issue 
date  is  the  basis  for  determining  the  redemption  or  maturity  period  of  the  bond, 
and  the  date  appearing  in  the  issuing  agent's  stamp  should  not  be  confused  there- 
with. The  bonds  may  not  be  called  for  redemption  bj'  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  prior  to  maturity,  but  they  may  be  redeemed  prior  to  maturity,  after 
60  days  from  the  issue  date,  at  the  owner's  option,  at  fixed  redemption  values. 
No  interest  as  such  will  be  paid  on  the  bonds,  but  they  will  increase  in  redemp- 
tion value  at  the  end  of  the  first  year  from  issue  date,  and  at  the  end  of  each 
successive  half-year  period  thereafter  until  their  maturity,  when  the  face  amount 
becomes  payable.  The  increment  in  value  will  be  payable  only  upon  redemp- 
tion of  the  bonds.  A  table  of  redemption  values  appears  on  each  bond.  The 
purchase  price  of  bonds  of  Series  E  has  been  fixed  so  as  to  afford  an  investment 
yield  of  about  2.9  percent  per  annum  compounded  semiannually  if  the  bonds 
are  held  to  maturity;  if  the  owner  exercises  his  option  to  redeem  a  bond  prior  to 
maturity  the  investment  yield  will  be  less.  The  table  at  the  end  of  this  circular 
shows:  (1)  How  bonds  of  Series  E,  b,y  denominations,  increase  in  redemption 
value  during  the  successive  half-year  periods  following  issue;  (2)  the  approximate 
investment  yield  on  the  issue  price  from  issue  date  to  the  beginning  of  each  half- 
year  period;  and  (3)  the  approximate  investment  yield  on  the  current  redemption 
value  from  the  beginning  of  each  half-year  period  to  maturity  at  the  end  of  the 
10-year  period. 

3.  Bonds  of  Series  E  will  not  be  transferable,  and  will  be  payable  only  to  the 
owner  named  thereon,  except  in  case  of  death  or  disability  of  the  owner  or  as  other-

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       317 

wise  specifically  provided  in  the  regulations  governing  savings  bonds,  and  in 
any  event  only  in  accordance  with  said  regulations.  Accordingly,  after  they 
are  duly  issued  they  may  not  be  sold,  discounted,  hypothecated  as  collateral  for 
a  loan  or  the  performance  of  a  service,  or  disposed  of  in  any  manner  other  than 
as  provided  in  the  regulations  governing  savings  bonds,  and,  except  as  provided 
in  said  regulations,  the  Treasury  Department  will  recognize  only  the  inscribed 
owner,  during  his  lifetime,  and  thereafter  his  estate  or  heirs. 

4.  Taxation. — For  the  purpose  of  determining  taxes  and  tax  exemptions, 
the  increment  in  value  represented  by  the  difference  between  the  price  paid  for 
bonds  of  Series  E  (which  are  issued  on  a  discount  basis),  and  the  redemption 
value  received  therefor  (whether  at  or  before  maturity)  shall  be  considered  as 
interest,  and  such  interest  is  not  exempt  from  income  or  profits  taxes  now  or 
hereafter  imposed  by  the  United  States. 2  The  bonds  shall  be  subject  to  estate, 
inheritance,  gift,  or  other  excise  taxes,  whether  Federal  or  State,  but  shall  be 
exempt  from  all  taxation  now  or  hereafter  imposed  on  the  principal  or  in;erest 
thereof  by  any  State,  or  any  of  the  possessions  of  the  United  States,  or  by  any

E  may  be  purchased  are  authorized  to  deliver  such  bonds,  duly  inscribed  and 
dated,  upon  receipt  of  the  issue  price.  Bonds  not  delivered  in  person  and  bonds 
issued  against  mail  order  applications  will  be  delivered  by  mail  at  the  risk  and 
expense  of  the  United  States,  at  the  address  given  by  the  purchaser,  but  only 
within  the  United  States,  its  territories  and  insular  possessions  and  the  Canal 
Zone.^  No  mail  deliveries  elsewhere  will  be  made.  If  purchased  by  citizens  of 
the  United  States  temporarily  residing  abroad,  bonds  will  be  delivered  at  an 
address  in  the  United  States,  or  held  in  safekeeping,  as  the  purchaser  may  direct.

and  those  of  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States,  will  be  utilized.  Arrangements

States  savings  bonds  of  Series  F  and  Series  G 

Second  Revision,  January  1,  1944,  to  Department  Circular  No.  654 

Treasury  Department, 
Washington,  January  1,  1944- 


I.  offering  of  united  states  savings  bonds  of  series  f  and  series  g 

1.  The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  pursuant  to  the  authority  of  the  Second 
Liberty  Bond  Act,  as  amended,  offers  for  sale,  to  the  people  of  the  United  States, 
through  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks,  United  States  savings  bonds  of  Series  F 
and  Series  G,  which  may  hereinafter  be  referred  to  as  bonds  of  Series  F  and 
Series  G.  Bonds  of  a  new  design,  without  change  in  terms,  will  be  provided 
for  issue  hereunder  in  regular  course  without  further  notice  as  stocks  of  the  prior 
bonds  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  become  exhausted.  The  sale  of  bonds  of  Series  F 
and  Series  G  will  continue  until  terminated  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 

2.  United  States  savings  bonds  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  include  bonds  of  any 
designation  issued  under  this  circular  as  originally  published  and  amended,  and 
those  issued  under  this  circular  as  previously  or  as  now  revised.  As  their  terms 
are  identical,  no  distinction  is  to  be  made  between  any  bonds  of  Series  F  or  Series 
G  so  issued. 

II.  description  and  terms  of  bonds 

1.  Bonds  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  will  be  issued  only  in  registered  form,  in 
denominations  of  $25  (for  Series  F  only),  $100,  $500,  $1,000,  $5,000,  and  $10,000 
(maturity  values),  at  prices  hereinafter  set  forth.  Each  bond  will  bear  the  fac- 
simile signature  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  and  will  bear  an  imprint  in 
color  (brown  for  Series  F  and  blue  for  Series  G)  of  the  Seal  of  the  Treasury. 
At  the  time  of  issue,  on  the  face  of  each  bond,  the  issuing  agent  will  inscribe  the 
name  and  address  of  the  owner  and  the  name  of  the  coowner  or  beneficiary,  if 
any,  will  enter  the  issue  date  (which  is  the  first  day  of  the  month  in  which  pay- 
ment of  the  issue  price  is  received  by  the  Treasury  or  an  authorized  issuing  agent), 
and  will  imprint  his  dating  stamp  (to  show  the  date  the  bond  is  actually  inscribed). 
Bonds  of  Series  F  and  G  shall  be  valid  only  if  duly  inscribed  and  dated,  as  above 
provided,  and  delivered  by  an  authorized  agent  following  receipt  of  payment 
therefor. 

2.  The  bonds  of  each  series  will,  in  each  instance,  be  dated  as  of  the  first  day 
of  the  month  in  which  payment  of  the  issue  price  is  received  by  an  agent  author- 
ized to  issue  the  bonds,  which  date  is  herein  referred  to  as  the  issue  date;  the 
bonds  will  mature  and  be  payable  at  face  value  12  years  from  such  issue  date. 
The  issue  date  is  the  basis  for  determining  the  redemption  or  maturity  period 
of  the  bond,  and  the  date  appearing  in  the  issuing  agent's  stamp  should  not  be 
confused  therewith.     The  bonds  of  either  series  may  not  be  called  for  redemption 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       323 

by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  prior  to  maturity,  but  they  may  be  redeemed 
prior  to  maturity,  after  6  months  from  the  issue  date,  at  the  owner's  option,  at 
fixed  redemption  vahies. 

3.  Bonds  of  Series  F  will  be  issued  on  a  discount  basis  at  74  percent  of  their 
maturity  value.  No  interest  as  such  will  be  paid  on  the  bonds,  but  they  will 
increase  in  redemption  value  at  the  end  of  the  first  year  from  issue  date,  and  at 
the  end  of  each  successive  half-year  period  thereafter  until  their  maturity,  when 
the  face  amount  becomes  payable.  The  increment  in  value  will  be  payable  only 
upon  redemption  of  the  bonds.  A  table  of  redemption  values  appear  on  each 
bond.  The  purchase  price  of  bonds  of  Series  F  has  been  fixed  so  as  to  afford 
an  investment  yield  of  about  2.53  percent  per  annum  conjipounded  semiannually 
if  the  bonds  are  held  to  maturity;  if  the  owner  exercises  his  option  to  redeem  a 
bond  prior  to  maturity  the  investment  yield  will  be  less. 

4.  Bonds  of  Series  G  will  be  issued  at  par,  and  will  bear  interest  at  the  rate  of 
214  percent  per  annum,  payable  semiannually  from  issue  date.  Interest  will  be 
paid  by  check  drawn  to  the  order  of  the  registered  owner.  Interest  will  cease  at 
maturity,  or,  in  case  of  redemption  before  maturity,  at  the  end  of  the  interest 
period  next  preceding  the  date  of  redemption.  A  table  of  redemption  values 
appears  on  each  bond,  and  the  diff"erence  between  the  face  amount  of  the  bond  and 
the  redemption  value  fixed  for  any  period  represents  an  adjustment  (or  refund)  of 
interest.  Accordingly,  if  the  owner  exercises  his  option  to  redeem  a  bond  prior 
to  maturity,  the  investment  j'ield  will  be  less  than  the  interest  rate  on  the  bond. 
Bonds  of  Series  G  may  be  redeemed  at  par,  in  whole  or  in  part,  (1)  upon  the  death 
of  the  owner,  or  a  coowner,  if  a  natural  person,  or  (2)  as  to  bonds  held  by  a  trustee 
or  other  fiduciary,  upon  the  death  of  any  person  which  results  in  termination  of  the 
trust.  If  the  trust  is  terminated  only  in  part,  redemption  at  par  will  be  made  only 
to  the  extent  of  the  pro  rata  portion  of  the  trust  so  terminated,  to  the  next  lower 
multiple  of  $100.  In  any  case  request  for  redemption  at  par  must  be  received  by 
the  Treasury  Department,  Division  of  Loans  and  Currency,  Merchandise  Mart, 
Chicago  54,  111.,  or  by  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  branch  within  4  months  after 
the  date  of  death  and  in  accordance  with  the  regulations  governing  savings  bonds. 

5.  Tables  at  the  end  of  this  circular  show  separately  for  bonds  of  Series  F  and 
those  of  Series  G:  (1)  The  redemption  values,  by  denominations,  during  the  suc- 
cessive half-year  periods  following  issue,  (2)  the  approximate  investment  yield 
on  the  issue  price  from  issue  date  to  the  beginning  of  each  half-year  period,  and 
(3)  the  approximate  investment  yield  on  the  current  redemption  value  from  the 
beginning  of  each  half-year  period  to  maturity  at  the  end  of  the  12-year  period. 

6.  Bonds  of  Series  F  and  Series  G  will  not  be  transferable,  and  will  be  payable 
only  to  the  owner  named  thereon,  except  in  case  of  death  or  disability  of  the 
owner  or  as  otherwise  specifically  provided  in  the  regulations  governing  savings 
bonds,  and  in  any  event  only  in  accordance  with  said  regulations.  Accordingly 
they  may  not  be  sold,  discounted,  hypothecated  as  collateral  for  a  loan  or  the  per- 
formance of  a  service,  or  disposed  of  in  any  manner  other  than  as  provided  in  the 
regulations  governing  savings  bonds,  and,  except  as  provided  in  said  regulations, 
the  Treasury  Department  will  recognize  only  the  inscribed  owner,  during  his  life- 
time and  competency,  and  thereafter  his  estate  or  heirs. 

7.  Taxation. — For  the  purpose  of  determining  taxes  and  tax  exemptions,  the 
increment  in  value  represented  by  the  difference  between  the  price  paid  for  bonds 
of  Series  F  (which  are  issued  on  a  discount  basis),  and  the  redemption  value  re- 
ceived therefor  (whether  at  or  before  maturity)  shall  be  considered  as  interest,  and 
that  interest  and  interest  on  bonds  of  Series  G,  are  not  exempt  from  income  or 
profits  taxes  now  or  hereafter  imposed  by  the  United  States. ^  The  bonds  shall  be 
subject  to  estate,  inheritance,  gift,  or  other  excise  taxes,  whether  Federal  or  State, 
but  shall  be  exempt  from  all  taxation  now  or  hereafter  imposed  on  the  principal 
or  interest  thereof  by  any.  State,  or  any  of  the  possessions  of  the  United  States, 
or  by  any  local  taxing  authority.

agent  is  duly  imprinted  with  current  date — all  on  the  face  of  the  bond.  If  re- 
ceived by  mail,  the  same  verification  should  be  made,  and  if  any  error  in  inscription

tion the  facilities  of  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks,^  as  fiscal  agents  of  the  United 
States,  and  those  of  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States,  will  be  utilized.  Arrange-

registered  form.  The  name  and  comolete  post  office  address  of  the  owner,  as 
v/ell  as  the  name  of  the  coowner  or  designated  beneficiary,  if  any,  and  the  date 
as  of  which  the  bond  is  issued  will  be  inscribed  thereon  at  the  time  of  issue  by  an 
authorized  issuing  agent.'  The  form  of  registration  used  must  express  the  actual 
ownership  of  and  interest  in  the  bond  and,  except  as  otherwise  specifically  j^ro- 
vided  in  these  regulations,  will  be  considered  as  conclusive  of  such  ownership 
and  interest.  The  Treasury  Department  can  recognize  no  notices  of  adverse 
claims  to  savings  bonds  and  will  enter  no  stoppages  or  caveats  against  payment 
in  accordance  with  the  registration  of  the  bonds.  No  designation  of  an  attorne}^ 
agent  or  other  representative  to  request  or  receive  payment  on  behalf  of  the 
owner,  nor  any  restriction  on  the  right  of  such  owner  to  receive  payment  of  the 
bond,  other  than  as  provided  in  these  regulations,  may  be  made  in  the  registra- 
tion or  otherwise." 

"Sec.  315.3.  Reslrictiona. — Only  residents  (whether  individuals  or  others)  of 
the  United  States  (which  for  the  purposes  of  this  section  shall  include  the  terri- 
tories, insular  possessions  and  Canal  Zone),  citizens  of  the  United  States  tempo- 
rarily residing  abroad,  and  nonresident  aliens  employed  in  the  United  States  by 
the  Federal  Government  or  an  agenc}'  thereof,  may  be  named  as  owners,  co- 
owners  or  designated  beneficiaries  on  bonds  originally  issued  on  or  after  April  1, 
1940,  or  on  authorized  reissues  thereof:  Provided,  however,  That  on  original 
issues  of  bonds,  but  not  on  reissues,  a  nonresident  alien  (not  a  citizen  of  an  enemy 
nation)  may  be  named  as  coowner  or  designated  beneficiary,  and  Provided  further, 
That  a  nonresident  alien,  whether  owner,  coowner  or  beneficiary  succeeding  to 
title  on  the  death  of  the  owner,  or  succeeding  to  title  upon  the  death  of  a  surviving 
coowner  or  beneficiary,  will  be  entitled  only  to  request  and  receive  payment 
either  at  or  before  maturity."  ^ 

"Sec.  315.10.  Calculation  of  amount. — In  computing  the  amount  of  savings 
bonds  of  any  one  series  issued  during  any  one  calendar  year  held  by  any  one 
person  at  any  one  time  for  the  purpose  of  determining  whether  the  amount  is  in 
excess  of  the  authorized  limit  as  set  forth  in  the  next  preceding  section,  the  fol- 
lowing rules  shall  govern: 

"(a)  The  holdings  of  each  person,  as  defined  in  the  next  preceding  section, 
individually  and  in  a  fiduciary  capacity,  shall  be  computed  separately. 

"(b)  In  the  case  of  bonds  of  Series  A,  B,  C,  D,  and  E,  the  computation  shall 
be  based  upon  maturity  values.  In  the  case  of  bonds  of  Series  F  and  G,  the 
computation  shall  be  based  upon  issue  prices. 

"(c)  There  must  be  taken  into  account:  (1)  all  bonds  originally  issued  to  and 
registered  in  the  name  of  that  person  alone;  (2)  all  bonds  originally  issued  to  and 
registered  in  the  name  of  that  person  as  a  coowner  or  reissued  to  add  his  name 
as  coowner  under  the  provisions  of  section  315.29  (a),  or  to  designate  him  as 
coowner  instead  of  as  a  beneficiary  under  the  provisions  of  section  315.35  hereof: 
Provided,  however.  That  with  respect  to  bonds  of  Series  E  held  in  coownership 
form,  the  amount  thereof  may  be  applied  to  the  holdings  of  either  of  the  coowners, 
but  will  not  be  applied  to  both,  or  the  amount  may  be  apportioned  between 
them;  and  (3)  all  bonds  acquired  by  him  before  March  1,  1941,  upon  the  death 
of  another  or  the  happening  of  any  other  event. 

"(d)  There  need  not  be  taken  into  account:  (1)  bonds  of  which  that  person 
is  merely  the  designated  beneficiary;  (2)  those  in  which  his  interest  is  only  that 
of  a  beneficiary  under  a  trust;  or  (3)  those  to  which  he  is  entitled  as  an  heir  or 
legatee  of  the  deceased  registered  owner,  or  by  virtue  of  the  termination  of  a 
trust  or  the  happening  of  any  other  event  unless  he  became  entitled  to  any  such 
bonds  in  his  own  right  before  March  1,  1941. 

"(e)  Nothing  herein  contained  shall  be  construed  to  invalidate  any  holdings 
within  or,  except  as  provided  in  subsection  (c)  above,  to  validate  any  holdings 
in  excess  of,  the  authorized  limits,  as  computed  under  the  regulations  in  force 
at  the  time  such  holdings  were  acquired." 

"Sec.  315.20  (b).  Banks,  trust  companies  and  branches. — Any  officer  of  any 
incorporated  bank  or  trust  company  or  branch  thereof,   domestic  or  foreign, 


•  The  date  of  maturity  is  also  inscribed  on  savings  bonds  of  Series  A,  Series  B,  and  Series  D. 

2  Under  the  terms  of  Executive  Order  No.  8389,  as  amended,  and  the  regulations  issued  thereunder, 
bonds  may  not  be  issued  or  paid  to  nationals  (as  defined  in  said  order)  of  blocked  countries  or  to  nationals 
of  enemy  countries,  whether  or  not  residing  in  the  United  States,  unless  such  nationals  are  generally  or 
specially  licensed  under  the  terms  of  the  order. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       331 

including  banks  or  trust  companies  incorporated  in  the  United  States  or  its  organ- 
ized territories,  those  doing  business  in  the  organized  territories  or  insular  posses- 
sions of  the  United  States  and  the  Commonwealth  of  the  Philippines  under 
Federal  charter  or  organized  under  Federal  law,  Federal  Reserve  Banks,  Federal 
land  banks,  and  Federal  home  loan  banks;  any  employee  of  any  such  bank  or 
trust  company  expressly  authorized  by  the  corporation  to  sign  on  behalf  of,  or 
for,  any  officer  thereof,  and  who  should  sign  over  the  title  'Designated  Employee'; 
and  Federal  Reserve  agents  and  assistant  Federal  Reserve  agents,  located  at  the 
several  Federal  Reserve  Banks.  Certifications  by  any  of  these  officers  or  desig- 
nated employees  should  be  authenticated  by  either  a  legible  impression  of  the 
corporate  seal  of  the  bank  or  trust  company  or,  in  the  case  of  banks  or  trust 
companies  and  their  branches  which  are  authorized  and  duly  qualified  issuing 
agents  for  bonds  of  Series  E,  by  a  legible  imprint  of  the  issuing  agent's  dating 
stamp." 

"Sec.  315.25.  Payment  to  legal  guardians. — -If  the  form  of  registration  of  a 
savings  bond  indicates  that  the  owner  is  a  minor  or  has  been  judicially  declared 
to  be  incompetent  to  manage  his  estate  and  that  a  guardian  or  similar  representa- 
tive has  been  appointed  for  the  estate  of  such  minor  or  incompetent  by  a  court 
having  jurisdiction  or  is  otherwise  legally  qualified,  payment  will  be  made  only 
to  such  guardian  or  similar  legal  representative.  In  such  case  the  request  for 
payment  appearing  on  the  back  of  the  bond  should  be  signed  by  the  guardian  or 
other  legal  representative  as  such,  for  example,  'John  A.  Jones,  guardian  (com- 
mittee) of  the  estate  of  Henry  W.  Smith,  a  minor  (an  incompetent).'  Unless 
the  form  of  registration  gives  the  name  of  the  representative,  there  must  be  sub- 
mitted in  support  of  the  request  a  certificate  or  a  certified  copy  of  the  letters  of 
appointment  from  the  court  making  the  appointment  under  the  seal  of  the  court, 
establishing  that  the  appointment  is  in  full  force.  Such  certificate  or  certification 
(except  in  the  case  of  corporate  fiduciaries)  should  be  dated  not  more  than  6 
months  prior  to  the  date  of  presentation  of  the  bond  for  payment.  See  subpart 
M  hereof  for  payment  provisions  applicable  to  bonds  registered  in  the  names  of 
guardians  and  similar  fiduciaries.  Where  the  form  of  registration  does  not  indi- 
cate that  the  owner  is  a  minor  for  whose  estate  a  guardian  has  been  appointed,  a 
notice  that  such  guardian  has  been  appointed  will  not  be  accepted  by  the  Treasury 
for  the  purpose  of  preventing  payment  to  the  minor  or  his  parent  as  provided  in 
the  two  following  sections." 

"Sec.  315.26.  Payment  to  minors. — Unless  the  form  of  registration  of  a  sav- 
ings bond  indicates  that  the  owner  is  a  minor  for  whose  estate  a  guardian  or 
similar  legal  representative  has  been  appointed  or  is  otherwise  duly  qualified, 
payment  will  be  made  direct  to  such  minor,  provided  he  is,  at  the  time  payment 
is  requested,  of  sufficient  competency  and  understanding  to  sign  his  name  to 
the  request  and  to  comprehend  the  nature  of  such  act.  In  general  the  fact  that 
the  request  for  payment  has  been  signed  by  a  minor  and  duly  certified  in  accord- 
ance with  subpart  H  hereof  will  be  accepted  as  sufficient  proof  of  such  competency 
and  understanding." 

"Sec.  315.27.  Payment  to  parents  of  minors. — If  the  owner  of  a  savings  bond 
is  a  minor  and  the  form  of  registration  does  not  indicate  that  a  guardian  or  siniilar 
legal  representative  of  tlie  estate  of  such  minor  owner  has  been  appointed  or  is 
otherwise  legally  qualified,  and  if  such  minor  owner  is  not  of  sufficient  competency 
and  understanding  to  execute  the  request  for  payment,  payment  will  be  made  to 
either  parent  of  the  minor  with  whom  he  resides,  or  if  the  minor  does  not  reside 
with  either  parent,  then  to  the  person  who  furnishes  his  chief  support.  The  parent 
or  such  other  person  should  sign  the  request  for  payment  in  his  own  name,  on 
behalf  of  the  minor,  in  the  form  'Mrs.  Mary  Jones,  on  behalf  of  John  C.  Jones,' 
and  should  sign  a  certificate,  in  substantially  the  following  form,  which  may  be 
typed  on  the  back  of  the  bond: 

'I  certify  that  I  am  the (relationship)   of  John  C. 

Jones  and  the  person  with  whom  he  resides.     He  is years  of 

age  and  is  not  of  sufficient  competency  and  understanding  to  sign 
this  request.' 

"If  a  person  other  than  a  parent  signs  the  request  on  behalf  of  the  minor  he  should 
also  certify  that  the  minor  does  not  reside  with  either  parent  and  that  he  furnishes 
his  chief  support.  The  Treasury  Department  may  in  any  particular  case  require 
further  proof  that  the  minor  is  not  of  sufficient  competency  and  understanding  to 
execute  the  request  for  payment  and  of  the  right  of  the  person  executing  the 
request  to  act  on  behalf  of  the  minor." 

"Sec.  315.29.  Reissue  for  certain  purposes.~--A  savings  bond  of  any  series  regis- 
tered in  the  name  of  one  person  in  his  own  right,  or  to  which  one  person  is  shown 


332       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

to  be  entitled  in  his  own  right  under  these  regulations,  may  be  reissued  upon 
appropriate  request  for  the  following  purposes: 

"(a)  Addition  of  coowner .—Reissue  in  the  name  of  the  owner  with  that  of 
another  natural  person  as  coowner,  provided  that  bonds  reissued  in  accordance 
with  this  subsection  will  be  considered  for  the  purposes  of  computation  of  holdings 
under  subpart  D  of  these  regulations  as  originally  issued  in  both  names  and  no 
reissue  will  be  effective  which  results  in  any  one  person  holding  bonds  in  excess 
of  the  established  limitation  for  the  series  to  which  the  bonds  belong.  Requests 
for  reissue  under  this  subsection  should  be  made  on  Form  PD  1762. 

"(b)  Addition  of  a  beneficiary. — Reissue  in  the  name  of  the  owner  with  the  name 
of  another  natural  person  as  designated  beneficiary.  Applications  for  reissue 
under  the  provisions  of  this  subsection  should  be  made  on  Form  PD  1077. 

"(c)  Reissue  in  living  trust. — Reissue  in  the  name  of  a  trustee  of  a  living  trust 
created  by  the  registered  owner  for  his  benefit  in  whole  or  in  part,  during  his  life- 
time whether  or  not  containing  an  absolute  power  of  revocation  in  the  grantor; 
but  such  reissue  will  be  allowed  only  in  the  case  of  bonds  of  those  series  which  may 
be  originally  issued  in  the  name  of  a  trustee." 

"Sec.  315.32.  Payment  or  reissue.^ — A  savings  bond  registered  in  the  names  of 
two  i:)ersons  as  coowners  in  the  form  'John  A.  Jones  OR  Mrs.  Mary  C.  Jones,' 
will  be  paid  or  reissued  as  follows: 

•'(a)  During  the  lives  of  both  coowners. — During  the  lives  of  both  coowners  the 
bond  will  be  paid  to  either  coowner  upon  his  separate  request  without  requiring  the 
signature  of  the  other  coowner;  and  upon  payment  to  either  coowner  the  other  per- 
son shall  cease  to  have  any  interest  in  the  bond.  The  bond  will  also  be  paid  to  both 
coowners  upon  their  joint  request,  in  which  case  payment  will  be  made  by  check 
drawn  to  the  order  of  both  coowners  in  the  form,  for  example,  'John  A.  Jones  and 
Mrs.  Mary  C .  Jones,'  and  the  check  must  be  endorsed  by  both  payees.  The  bond  will 
not  be  reissued  in  any  form  during  the  lives  of  both  coowners  except  as  specifically 
provided  in  these  regulations. 

"(b)  After  the  death  of  one  coowner. — If  either  coowner  dies  without  having  pre- 
sented and  surrendered  the  bond  for  payment  to  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  the 
Treasury  Department,  the  surviving  coowner  will  be  recognized  as  the  sole  and 
absolute  owner  of  the  bond,  and  payment  will  be  made  only  to  him:  Provided,  how- 
ever, That  if  a  coowner  dies  after  he  has  properly  executed  the  request  for  payment 
and  after  the  bond  has  actually  been  received  by  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  the 
Treasury  Department,  payment  of  the  bond,  or  check  if  one  has  been  issued,  will  be 
made  to  his  estate  (see  subpart  P  hereof).  Upon  proof  of  the  death  of  one  coowner 
and  appropriate  request  by  the  surviving  coowner  (unless  a  nonresident  alien,  in 
which  case  see  sec.  315.3)  the  bond  will  be  reissued  in  the  name  of  such  survivor 
alone,  or  in  his  name  with  another  individual  as  coowner,  or  in  his  name  payable  on 
death  to  a  designated  beneficiary. 

"(c)  On  death  of  both  coowners  in  conimon  disaster. — If  both  coowners  die  in  a 
common  disaster  under  such  conditions  that  it  cannot  be  established,  either  by 
presumption  of  law  or  otherwise,  which  coowner  died  first,  the  bond  will  be  con- 
sidered as  belonging  to  the  estates  of  both  coowners. 

"(d)  After  the  death  of  a  surviving  coowner. — If  a  surviving  coowner  who  became 
solely  entitled  to  the  bond  under  the  provisions  of  subsection  {b)  of  this  section  dies 
without  having  submitted  the  bond  for  payment  or  reissue,  the  bond  will  be  paid 
or  reissued  as  though  it  were  registered  in  the  name  of  such  last  deceased  coowner 
alone.  In  this  case  proof  of  the  death  of  both  coowners  and  of  the  order  in  which 
they  died  will  be  required." 

"Sec.  315.35.  Reissue  during  the  lifetime  of  a  registered  owner. — A  bond  regis- 
tered in  the  name  of  one  person  payable  on  death  to  another  may  be  reissued,  on 
the  duly  certified  request  of  the  registered  owner,  to  name  a  beneficiary  designated 
on  the  bond  as  coowner  subject  to  the  same  restrictions  and  conditions  contained 
in  section  315.29  (a).  A  bond  may  also  be  reissued  upon  the  duly  certified  request 
of  the  registered  owner,  together  with  the  duly  certified  consent  of  the  designated 
beneficiary,  to  eliminate  such  beneficiary  or  to  substitute  another  person  as  bene- 
ficiary, or  to  name  another  person  as  coowner.  If  the  beneficiary  should  prede- 
cease the  registered  owner,  upon  proof  of  such  death  and  upon  request  of  the  regis- 
tered owner  the  bond  may  be  reissued  in  his  name  alone  or  in  his  name  with  another 
individual  as  coowner,  or  in  his  name  payable  on  death  to  a  designated  beneficiary. 
Requests  should  preferably  be  made  upon  the  forms  provided  for  such  purpose." 

"Sec.  315.36.  Payment  or  reissue  to  beneficiary. — If  the  registered  owner  dies 
without  having  presented  and  surrendered  the  bond  for  paj'ment  or  authorized 
reissue  to  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  the  Treasury  Department,  and  is  survived  by 
the  beneficiary,  upon  proof  of  such  death  and  survivorship,  the  beneficiary  will  be 

«  Amended  May  1, 1944,  see  p.  334. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       333 

recognized  as  the  sole  and  absolute  owner  of  the  bond,  and  it  will  be  paid  only  to 
him  at  or  before  maturity,  or  (unless  such  beneiiciary  be  a  nonresident  alien,  in 
which  case  see  section  315.3)  may  be  reissued  in  his  name  alone,  or  otherwise  re- 
issued in  accordance  with  subpart  J  as  though  it  were  registered  in  his  name  alone: 
Provided,  however,  That  if  the  bond  with  a  properly  executed  request  by  the  regis- 
tered owner  for  payment  or  authorized  reissue  has  actually  been  received  by  a 
Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  the  Treasury  Department,  payment  of  the  bond,  or 
check  if  one  has  been  issued,  will  be  made  to  the  estate  of  the  deceased  owner  in 
accordance  with  section  315.49." 

"Sec.  315.37.  Payment  or  reissue  after  death  of  the  surviving  beneficiary. — After 
the  death  of  a  surviving  beneficiary  who  became  entitled  under  the  provisions  of 
this  subpart,  the  bond  will  be  paid  or  (except  in  the  case  of  a  nonresident  alien)  re- 
issued in  accordance  with  subpart  J  as  though  it  were  registered  in  the  name  of  the 
surviving  beneficiary  alone.  In  this  case  proof  of  the  death  of  both  the  registered 
owner  and  the  beneficiary  and  of  the  order  in  which  they  died  will  be  required." 

"Sec.  315.52.  Determination  of  interest  as  between  owner  and  coowner  or  bene- 
ficiary.— Conflicting  claims  as  to  ownership  of  or  interest  in  a  savings  bond,  as  be- 
tween the  registered  owner  and  the  coowner  or  the  registered  owner  and  a  desig- 
nated beneficiary  may  be  determined  by  valid  judicial  proceedings,  in  which  case 
the  bond  upon  surrender  by  the  party  requesting  reissue  may  be  reissued  in  the 
names  of  the  respective  parties  to  the  extent  of  their  respective  interests  as  deter- 
mined by  such  proceedings,  but  only  in  authorized  denominations.  The  Treasury 
can  accept  no  notices  of  pending  judicial  proceedings  and  cannot  undertake  to  pro- 
tect the  interests  of  litigants  who  do  not  have  possession  of  the  bonds." 

"Sec.  315.65.  Correspondence,  certificates,  notices,  and  forms.— Correspon- 
dence in  regard  to  any  transactions  in  United  States  savings  bonds  under  the 
provisions  of  these  regulations,  certificates  of  court  and  other  certificates,  as  well  as 
notices  of  intention  to  redeem,  and  the  like  (which  must  be  in  writing),  should  be 
addressed  to  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  to  the  Treasury  Department,  Bureau  of 
the  Public  Debt,  Merchandise  Mart,  Chicago,  111.  Notices  or  documents  on  file 
with  other  bureaus  of  the  Department  will  not  be  recognized.  Appropriate  forms 
for  use  in  connection  with  transactions  may  be  procured  from  any  Federal  Reserve 
Bank  or  from  the  Division  of  Loans  and  Currency."

reissue  will  be  permitted  in  any  form  during  the  lives  of  both  coowners  except  as 
specifically  provided  in  these  regulations. 

"(c)  Payment  or  reissue  after  the  death  of  one  coowner. — If  either  coowner  dies 
without  having  presented  and  surrendered  the  bond  for  payment  to  a  Federal 
Reserve  Bank  or  the  Treasury  Department,  the  surviving  coowner  will  be  recog- 
nized as  the  sole  and  absolute  owner  of  the  bond,  and  payment  will  be  made  only 
to  him:  Provided,  however,  That  if  a  coowner  dies  after  he  has  properly  executed

Federal  Reserve  Bank  or  the  Treasury  Department,  payment  of  the  bond,  or 
check  if  one  has  been  issued,  will  be  made  to  his  estate  (see  subpart  P  hereof).

vidual as  coowner,  or  in  his  name  payable  on  death  to  a  designated  beneficiary. 

"(d)  Payment  or  reissue  on  death  of  both  coowners  in  common  disaster. — If  both 
coowners  die  in  a  common  disaster  under  such  conditions  that  it  cannot  be  estab- 
lished, either  by  presumption  of  law  or  otherwise,  which  coowner  died  first,  the 
bond  will  be  considered  as  belonging  to  the  estates  of  both  coowners,  and  pay- 
ment or  reissue  will  be  made  accordingly. 

"(e)  Payment  or  reissue  after  the  death  of  the  surviving  coowner. — If  a  surviving 
coowner  who  became  solely  entitled  to  the  bond  under  the  provisions  of  sub- 
section (c)  of  this  section  dies  without  having  submitted  the  bond  for  payment 
or  reissue,  the  bond  will  be  paid  or  reissued  as  though  it  were  registered  in  the

336  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY 

Exhibit  29 

Announcement  July  27,  1943,  of  a  reduction  in  the  size  of  Series  E  war  savings  bonds 

Treasury  Department, 
Washington,  July  27,  1943. 

Secretary  Morgenthau  announced  today  that  in  an  effort  to  conserve  labor, 
paper  and  other  materials,  conclusion  had  been  reached  to  reduce  the  size  of  the 
United  States  war  savings  bonds — Series  E,  without  change  in  the  terms  of  the 
bonds,  or  their  designation. 

The  new  size  will  be  approximately  7%  by  4}^  inches,  or  about  that  of  the  pres- 
ent bond  folded  once  from  top  to  bottom. 

Work  Will  proceed  immediately,  and  it  is  confidently  believed  the  new  bonds 
will  be  available  in  about  two  months,  after  which  they  will  be  issued  in  regular 
course  as  stocks  of  the  present  bonds  become  exhausted. 

A  saving  of  about  $1,750,000  a  year  in  paper  and  production  costs  alone  will  be 
realized  on  the  basis  of  last  year's  sales  of  these  bonds.

reissued  in  the  name  of  her  husband,  upon  request  of  the  person  in  whose  name  the 
notes  are  inscribed  and  the  surrender  of  the  notes  to  the  agent  that  issued  them; 
(2)  if  inscribed  in  the  name  of  a  corporation  owning  more  than  50  percent  of  the 
stock,  with  voting  power,  of  another  corporation,  the  notes  may  be  reissued  in  the 
name  of  the  subsidiary  upon  request  of  the  corporation  and  surrender  of  the  notes 
to  the  agent  that  issued  them;  (3)  upon  the  death  or  disability  of  an  individual 
inscribed  owner  or  the  dissolution,  consolidation  or  merger  of  a  corporation  or 
unincorporated  association  named  as  owner,  reissue  or  payment  may  be  made  in 
accordance  with  section  VI  hereof;  and  (4)  payment  but  not  reissue,  may  be  made 
as  a  result  of  legal  proceedings  as  set  forth  in  said  section  VI.  The  notes  may  not 
be  hypothecated  and  no  attempted  hypothecation  or  pledge  as  security  will  be 
recognized  by  the  Treasury  Department:  Provided,  however, That  the  notes  may  be 
pledged  as  collateral  for  loans  from  banking  institutions  and  if  title  thereto  is 
acquired  by  a  bank  because  of  the  failure  of  a  loan  to  be  paid,  the  notes  will  be 
redeemed  at  par  and  accrued  interest  to  the  month  in  which  acquired  on  sur- 
render to  the  agent  who  issued  them,  accompanied  by  proof  of  the  date  of  ac- 
quisition and  by  request  of  the  pledgee  under  power  of  attorney  given  by  the 
pledgor  in  whose  name  the  notes  are  inscribed.  The  notes  will  not  be  transferred 
to  a  pledgee.     The  notes  will  not  be  acceptable  to  secure  deposits  of  public  moneys.

taxes,  now  or  hereafter  imposed.  The  notes  shall  be  subject  to  estate,  inheritance, 
gift  or  other  excise  taxes,  whether  Federal  or  State,  but  shall  be  exempt  from  all 
taxation  now  or  hereafter  imposed  on  the  principal  or  interest  thereof  by  any

their  branches  and  the  Treasury  Department  are  authorized  to  act  as  offi- 
cial agencies.  The  use  of  an  official  application  form  is  desirable  but  not  neces- 
sary. Appropriate  forms  may  be  obtained  on  application  to  any  Federal 
Reserve  Bank  or  branch,  or  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States,  Washington, 
D.  C.  Every  application  must  be  accompanied  by  payment  in  full,  at  par.  Any

of  the  United  States,  as  payee,  as  the  case  may  be.  The  date  funds  are  made 
available  on  collection  of  exchange  will  govern  the  issue  date  of  the  notes.  Any 
depositary,  qualified  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  Treasury  Department  Circular 
No.  92,  Revised,  as  amended,  will  be  permitted  to  make  payment  by  credit  for

under any  notes  in  any  case  or  in  any  class  or  classes  of  cases  if  he  deems  such 
action  to  be  in  the  public  interest,  and  his  action  in  any  such  respect  shall  be  final. 
If  an  application  is  rejected,  in  whole  or  in  part,  any  payment  received  therefor 
will  be  refunded. 

4.  Delivery  of  notes. — Upon  acceptance  of  full-paid  applications,  notes  will  be

MONETARY  DEVELOPMENTS 

Exhibit  39 

Revised  draft,  dated  July  10,  19J,S,  of  the  Treasury's  tentative  proposal  for  an  inter- 
national stabilization  fund  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations 

Press  Release,  August  20,  1943,  Relative  to  the  Revised  Draft  of  the 
Treasury's  Tentative  Proposal  for  an  International  Stabilization 
Fund 

Secretary  Morgenthau  made  public  today  a  revised  draft  of  the  Treasury's 
tentative  proposal  for  an  international  stabilization  fund  of  the  United  and 
Associated  Nations. 

The  revised  draft  was  prepared  by  technical  experts  of  the  Treasury  in  coop- 
eration with  experts  of  other  departments.  The  revision  followed  exploratory 
discussions  that  have  been  going  on  for  more  than  two  months  between  the  mone- 
tary experts  of  this  Government  and  the  monetary  experts  of  nearly  thirty  coun- 
tries. While  suggestions  of  representatives  of  other  countries  have  been  included 
in  the  revised  draft,  Secretary  Morgenthau  pointed  out  that  it  does  not  necessarily 
reflect  the  views  of  the  experts  of  any  other  countries. 

The  exploratory  technical  discussions  in  Washington  have  been  held  in  re- 
sponse to  an  invitation  Secretary  Morgenthau  sent  late  last  March  to  the  finance 
ministers  of  the  United  Nations,  enclosing  for  their  examination  a  preliminary 
draft  of  the  Treasury's  tentative  proposal.  The  finance  ministers  were  requested 
to  submit  the  draft  for  study  by  their  technical  experts  and  to  send  their  experts 
to  Washington  to  discuss  the  feasibility  of  international  monetary  cooperation 
along  the  suggested  lines. 

Secretary  Morgenthau  said  the  exploratory  discussions  have  been  extremely 
helpful  in  clarifying  the  views  widely  held  by  the  experts  of  the  United  Nations. 

"I  believe  the  technical  experts  are  unanimous  in  their  view  that  international 
monetary  cooperation  is  essential  if  we  are  to  avoid  the  collapse  of  some  monetary

systeirs,  to  prevent  the  disruption  of  foreign  exchanges  and  to  facihtate  the 
restoration  and  balanced  growth  of  international  trade,"  he  said. 

There  will  be  further  discussions  with  the  representatives  of  other  countries 
who  are  expected  to  arrive  during  the  month,  Secretary  Morgenthau  said.  He 
said  that  no  conference  would  be  called  until  he  had  had  an  opportunity  to  con- 
sult with  the  congressional  committees. 

"This  revised  draft,"  he  said,  "is  in  every  sense  still  a  preliminary  document. 
It  has  not  received  the  official  approval  either  of  the  Treasury  or  of  this  Govern- 
ment." 

Secretary  Morgenthau  pointed  out  that  he  is  keeping  the  appropriate  commit- 
tees of  the  Senate  and  the  House  fully  informed  of  the  discussions.  On  April  5 
and  6,  1943,  Mr.  Morgenthau  appeared  before  three  committees  of  the  Senate  and 
three  committees  of  the  House  to  explain  the  proposal  for  an  international  sta- 
bilization fund.  Mr.  Morgenthau  said  he  intended  to  appear  before  the  appro- 
priate committees  of  the  Senate  and  the  House  soon  after  Congress  convenes  to 
consult  with  them  further  on  the  proposal. 

"Treasury  officials,"  Mr.  Morgenthau  said,  "are  arranging  discussions  with 
representative  public  groups  to  explain  what  we  are  doing,  and  to  get  their  sug- 
gestions. There  will  be  a  conference  of  officers  and  directors  of  several  Federal 
Reserve  Banks  in  Chicago  next  week  at  which  proposals  for  post-war  stabilization 
of  currency  will  be  fully  discussed." 

The  Secretary  indicated  that  similar  conferences  will  be  held  with  other  Federal 
Reserve  Banks. 

Within  the  next  few  weeks  Treasury  officials  will  hold  conferences  with  the 
Advisory  Council  of  the  American  Bankers  Association,  the  New  York  City  banks, 
and  other  representative  banking  groups.  Arrangements  are  also  being  made  for 
meetings  with  members  of  the  Foreign  Trade  Council  and  other  organizations 
representing  businessmen  engaged  in  foreign  trade. 

Secretary  Morgenthau  said  the  Treasury  had  received  a  large  number  of  letters 
regarding  the  proposal,  many  of  them  embodying  interesting  suggestions."  All  of 
these  letters  are  being  carefully  considered. 


Preliminary  Draft  Outline  of  a  Proposal  for  an  International 
Stabilization  Fund,  Revised  July  10,   1943 

foreword  by  secretary  of  the  treasury  morgenthau 

When  the  United  Nations  have  brought  this  war  to  a  successful  conclusion,  they 
will  be  faced  with  many  urgent  international  economic  and  financial  problems. 
Some  of  these  are  new  problems  arising  directly  from  this  war;  others  are  contin- 
uing consequences  of  failure  to  solve  the  problems  that  have  been  with  us  since  the 
last  war.  The  solution  of  these  problems  is  essential  to  the  development  of  a  sound 
economic  foundation  for  world  peace  and  prosperity. 

All  of  the  important  international  economic  and  financial  problems  are  closely 
interrelated.  Monetary  stabilization,  commercial  policy,  the  provision  of  long- 
term  international  credit,  promotion  of  stability  in  the  prices  of  primary  products, 
and  arrangements  for  relief  and  rehabilitation  are  problems  that  join  at  innumer- 
able points.  Nevertheless,  because  of  their  complexity,  they  must  be  taken  up 
separately,  although  each  in  turn  must  be  integrated  with  the  rest. 

It  is  generally  recognized  that  monetary  stability  and  protection  against  dis- 
criminatory currency  practices  are  essential  bases  for  the  revival  of  international 
commerce  and  finance.  For  this  reason,  an  appropriate  starting  point  might  well 
be  the  consideration  of  post-war  international  monetary  problems.  Success  in 
dealing  with  international  monetary  problems  in  the  post-war  period  will  contrib- 
ute toward  final  solution  of  the  other  international  financial  and  economic 
problems.  Despite  the  technical  difficulties  involved,  the  common  interest  which 
all  countries  have  in  the  solution  of  post-war  tnonetary  problems  provides  a  basis 
for  agreement. 

It  is  still  too  soon  to  know  the  precise  form  and  magnitude  of  post-war  mone- 
tary problems.  But  it  is  certain  that  we  shall  be  confronted  with  three  inseparable 
monetary  tasks:  to  prevent  the  disruption  of  foreign  exchanges,  to  avoid  the  col- 
lapse of  monetary  systems,  and  to  facilitate  the  restoration  and  balanced  growth 
of  international  trade.  Clearly,  such  formidable  problems  can  be  successfully 
handled  only  through  international  action. 

The  creation  of  instrumentalities  adequate  to  deal  with  the  inevitable  post-war 
monetary  problems  should  not  be  postponed  until  the  end  of  hostilities.  It 
would  be  ill-advised,  if  not  dangerous,  to  leave  ourselves  unprepared  at  the  end 


356       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

of  the  war  for  the  difficult  task  of  international  monetary  cooperation.  Specific 
and  practical  proposals  must  be  formulated  by  the  experts  and  must  be  carefully 
considered  by  the  policy-shaping  officials  of  the  various  countries.  In  each 
country  acceptance  of  a  definitive  plan  can  follow  only  upon  legislative  or  execu- 
tive action.  And  even  when  a  plan  is  finally  adopted,  much  time  will  be  consumed 
in  preparation  before  an  international  institution  for  monetary  cooperation  can 
begin  effective  work. 

There  is  another  important  reason  for  initiating  now  concrete  discussions  of 
specific  proposals.  A  plan  for  international  monetary  cooperation  can  be  a 
factor  in  winning  the  war.  It  has  been  suggested,  and  with  much  cogency,  that 
the  task  of  assuring  the  defeat  of  the  Axis  powers  would  be  made  easier  if  the 
victims  of  aggression  could  have  greater  assurance  that  a  victory  of  the  United 
Nations  will  not  mean  in  the  economic  sphere  a  repetition  of  the  exchange  insta- 
bility and  monetary  collapse  that  followed  the  last  m  ar.  The  people  in  all  of  the 
United  Nations  must  be  given  some  assurance  that  there  will  not  again  be  two 
decades  of  post-war  economic  disruption.  The  people  must  know  that  we  at 
last  recognize  the  fundamental  truth  that  the  prosperity  of  each  country  is  closely 
linked  to  the  prosperity  of  other  countries. 

One  of  the  appropriate  agencies  to  deal  with  international  economic  and 
monetary  problems  would  be  an  international  stabilization  fund  with  resources 
and  powers  adequate  to  the  task  of  helping  to  achieve  monetary  stability  and  of 
facilitating  the  restoration  and  balanced  growth  of  international  trade.  A 
proposal  along  these  lines  was  drafted  by  American  technical  experts  and  made 
public  on  April  7,  1943.  There  have  been  informal  discussions  on  this  draft  in 
which  nearly  thirty  countries  have  participated.  These  discussions  have  shown 
that  all  countries  think  joint  action  in  this  field  is  necessary  for  the  reconstruction 
of  the  world  economy. 

It  is  recognized  that  an  international  stabilization  fund  is  only  one  of  the 
instrumentalities  which  may  be  needed  in  the  field  of  international  economic 
cooperation.  Other  agencies  may  be  needed  to  provide  long-term  international 
credit  for  post-war  reconstruction  and  development,  to  provide  funds  for  rehabili- 
tation and  relief,  and  to  promote  stability  in  the  prices  of  primary  international 
commodities.  There  is  a  strong  inclination  on  the  part  of  some  to  entrust  to  a 
single  agency  the  responsibility  for  dealing  with  these  and  other  international 
economic  problems.  We  believe,  however,  that  an  international  economic 
institution  can  operate  most  effectively  if  it  is  not  burdened  with  diverse  duties 
of  a  specialized  character. 

Although  an  international  stabilization  fund  can  provide  the  facilities  for 
cooperation  on  monetary  questions,  the  establishment  of  such  an  institution  would 
not  of  itself  assure  the  solution  of  these  difficult  problems.  The  operations  of 
such  a  fund  can  be  successful  only  if  the  powers  and  resources  of  the  fund  are 
used  wisely,  and  if  member  countries  cooperate  with  the  fund's  endeavors  to 
maintain  international  equilibrium  at  a  high  level  of  international  trade.  Such 
cooperation  must  include  commercial  policies  designed  to  reduce  trade  barriers 
and  to  terminate  discriminatory  practices  that  have  in  the  past  hampered  the 
balanced  growth  of  international  trade.  The  nations  of  this  world  can  be  pros- 
perous only  if  they  are  good  neighbors  in  their  economic  as  well  as  their  political 
relations. 

The  draft  proposals  that  have  been  put  forward  on  a  tentative  basis  have 
received  wide  publicity  in  the  United  States,  the  United  Kingdom,  Canada,  and 
in  other  countries.  It  is  in  the  best  democratic  tradition  that  the  people  should 
have  the  fullest  opportunity  to  express  their  views  and  to  shape  the  policies  of 
their  governments  on  the  import,ant  problems  affecting  national  well-being. 
And  it  is  an  extension  of  this  tradition  that  all  the  United  Nations  should  have  an 
opportunity  to  participate  in  the  formulation  of  a  program  for  international 
monetary  cooperation. 

This  revised  draft  is  published  with  the  hope  that  it  will  call  forth  further 
comments  and  constructive  suggestions.  It  aims  to  present  only  the  essential 
elements  of  a  workable  international  stabilization  fund,  and  its  provisions  are  in 
every  sense  tentative.  Obviously,  there  are  many  details  that  have  been  omitted 
and  that  can  be  better  formulated  after  there  is  agreement  on  the  more  important 
points.  We  believe  that  a  workable  and  acceptable  plan  can  emerge  only  from 
the  joint  efforts  of  the  United  Nations  supported  by  enlightened  public  opinion. 


REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY  357 

PREAMBLE 

1.  There  is  a  growing  recognition  that  progress  toward  establishment  of  a  func- 
tioning democratic  world  in  the  post-war  period  will  depend  on  the  ability  of  free 
peoples  to  work  together  in  solving  their  economic  problems.  Not  the  least  of 
these  is  the  problem  of  how  to  prevent  a  widespread  breakdown  of  currencies  with 
resultant  international  economic  disorder.  We  must  assure  a  troubled  world  that 
the  free  countries  will  solve  these  perplexing  problems,  and  that  they  will  not 
resort  to  competitive  exchange  depreciation,  multiple  currency  practices,  dis- 
criminatory bilateral  clearing,  or  other  destructive  foreign  exchange  devices. 

2.  These  are  not  transitory  problems  of  the  immediate  post-war  period  affecting 
only  a  few  countries.  The  history  of  the  past  two  decades  shows  that  they  are 
continuing  problems  of  vital  interest  to  all  countries.  There  must  be  a  general 
realization  that  world  prosperity,  like  world  peace,  is  indivisible.  Nations  must 
act  together  to  restore  multilateral  international  trade,  and  to  provide  orderly 
procedure  for  the  maintenance  of  balanced  economic  growth.  Only  through 
international  cooperation  will  it  be  possible  for  countries  successfully  to  apply 
measures  directed  toward  attaining  and  maintaining  a  high  level  of  employment 
and  income  which  must  be  the  primary  objective  of  economic  policy. 

3.  The  international  stabilization  fund  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations 
is  proposed  as  a  permanent  institution  for  international  monetary  cooperation. 
The  resources  of  this  fund  would  be  available  under  adequate  safeguards  to 
maintain  currency  stability,  while  giving  member  countries  time  to  correct 
maladjustments  in  their  balance  of  payments  without  resorting  to  extreme 
measures'  destructive  of  international  prosperity.  The  resources  of  the  fund 
would  not  be  used  to  prolong  a  basically  unbalanced  international  position.  On 
the  contrary,  the  fund  would  be  influential  in  inducing  countries  to  pursue  policies 
making  for  an  orderly  return  to  equilibrium. 

4.  The  fund  would  deal  only  with  member  governments  and  their  fiscal  agents, 
and  would  not  intrude  in  the  customary  channels  for  conducting  international 
commerce  and  finance.  The  fund  is  intended  to  provide  supplemental  facilities 
for  the  successful  functioning  of  the  established  foreign  exchange  institutions 
and  to  free  international  commerce  from  harmful  restrictions. 

5  The  success  of  the  fund  must  ultimately  depend  upon  the  willingness  of 
nations  to  act  together  on  their  common  problems.  International  monetary 
cooperation  should  not  be  regarded  as  a  matter  of  generosity.  All  countries 
have  a  vital  interest  in  the  maintenance  of  international  monetary  stability, 
and  in  the  balanced  growth  of  multilateral  international  trade. 

I.    PURPOSES    OF    THE    FUND 

The  United  Nations  and  the  countries  associated  with  them  recognize,  as 
declared  in  the  Atlantic  Charter,  the  need  for  the  fullest  cooperation  among 
nations  with  the  object  of  securing  economic  advancement  and  rising  standards 
of  living  for  all.  They  believe  that  attainment  of  these  objectives  will  be  facil- 
itated by  international  monetary  cooperation.  Therefore,  it  is  proposed  that 
there  be  established  an  international  stabilization  fund  with  the  following 
purposes: 

1.  To  help  stabilize  the  foreign  exchange  rates  of  the  currencies  of  the  United 
Nations  and  the  countries  associated  with  them. 

2.  To  shorten  the  periods  and  lessen  the  degree  of  disequilibrium  in  the  inter- 
national balance  of  payments  of  member  countries. 

3.  To  help  create  conditions  under  which  the  smooth  flow  of  foreign  trade  and 
of  productive  capital  among  the  member  countries  will  be  fostered. 

4.  To  facilitate  the  effective  utilization  of  the  blocked  foreign  balances  accumu- 
lating in  some  countries  as  a  consequence  of  the  war  situation. 

5.  To  reduce  the  use  of  such  foreign  exchange  restrictions,  bilateral  clearing 
arrangements,  multiple  currency  devices,  and  discriminatory  foreign  exchange 
practices  as  hamper  world  trade  and  the  international  flow  of  productive  capital. 

II.    COMPOSITION    OF   THE    FUND 

1.  The  fund  shall  consist  of  gold  and  the  currencies  and  securities  of  member 
governments. 

2.  Each  of  the  member  countries  shall  subscribe  a  specified  amount,  to  be  called 
its  quota.  The  aggregate  of  quotas  of  the  member  countries  shall  be  the  equiv- 
alent of  at  least  $5  billion. 


358       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

3.  Each  member  country  shall  meet  its  quota  contribution  in  full  on  or  before 
the  date  set  by  the  board  of  directors  for  the  fund's  operations  to  begin. 

(a)  A  country  shall  pay  in  gold  not  less  than  an  amount  determined  as  follows. 
If  its  gold  and  free  foreign  exchange  holdings  are — 

(i)  In  excess  of  three  times  its  quota,  it  shall  pay  in  gold  50  percent  of  its 
quota. 

(ii)  More  than  two  but  less  than  three  times  its  quota,  it  shall  pay  in  gold 
40  percent  of  its  quota  plus  10  percent  of  its  holdings  in  excess  of  tv\  ice  its 
quota. 

(iii)  More  than  its  quota  but  less  than  twice  its  quota,  it  shall  pay  in  gold 
30  percent  of  its  quota  plus  10  percent  of  its  holdings  in  excess  of  its  quota. 

(iv)   Less  than  its  quota,  it  shall  pay  in  gold  30  percent  of  its  holdings. 

The  gold  payment  required  of  a  member  country  substantial  parts  of 
whose  home  areas  have  been  wholly  or  partly  occupied  by  the  enemy,  shall 
be  only  three-fourths  of  the  above.  (For  other  gold  provisions,  Cf.  V-2-a 
and  V-6,  7.) 

A  member  country  may  include  in  the  legal  reserve  account  and  in  the 
published  statement  of  the  reserves  of  gold  and  foreign  exchange  in  its 
treasury  or  central  bank,  an  amount  not  to  exceed  its  gold  contribution  to 
the  fund,  minus  its  net  purchases  of  foreign  exchange  from  the  fund  paid  for 
with  local  currency. 

(b)  It  shall  pay  the  remainder  of  its  quota  in  local  currency,  except  that  a 
member  country  may  substitute  government  securities  (redeemable  at  par)  for 
local  currency  up  to  50  percent  of  its  quota. 

4.  A  quota  for  each  member  country  shall  be  computed  by  an  agreed  upon 
formula  which  gives  due  weight  to  the  important  relevant  factors,  e.  g.,  a  country's 
holdings  of  gold  and  free  foreign  exchange,  the  magnitude  and  the  fluctuations 
of  its  balance  of  international  payments,  its  national  income,  etc. 

Before  computing  individual  quotas  on  the  basis  of  the  agreed  upon  formula, 
there  shall  be  reserved  an  amount  equal  to  10  percent  of  aggregate  quotas  to  be 
used  as  a  special  allotment  for  the  equitable  adjustment  of  quotas.  Where  the 
initial  quota  of  a  member  country  as  computed  by  the  formula  is  clearly  inequi- 
table, the  quota  may  be  increased  from  this  special  allotment. 

5.  Quotas  shall  be  adjusted  on  the  basis  of  the  most  recent  data  3  years  after 
the  establishment  of  the  hind,  and  at  intervals  of  5  years  thereafter,  in  accord- 
ance with  the  agreed  upon  formula.  In  the  period  between  adjustment  of  quotas, 
the  fund  may  increase  the  quota  of  a  country,  where  it  is  clearly  inequitable,  out 
of  the  special  allotment  reserved  for  the  equitable  adjustment  of  quotas. 

6.  Any  changes  in  the  formula  by  which  the  quotas  of  member  countries  are 
determined  shall  be  made  only  with  the  approval  of  a  four-fifths  vote  of  the  board. 

7.  No  increase  shall  be  made  in  the  quota  of  a  member  country  under  II-4, 
5,  or  6  without  the  consent  of  the  representative  of  the  country  concerned. 

8.  The  resources  of  the  fund  shall  be  used  exclusively  for  the  benefit  of  the 
member  countries. 

III.    MONETARY    UNIT    OF    THE    FUND 

1.  The  monetary  unit  of  the  fund  shall  be  the  unitas  {^SW)  equal  in  value  to 
137J4  grains  of  fine  gold  (equivalent  to  $10).  No  change  in  the  gold  value  of  the 
unitas  shall  be  made  except  with  the  approval  of  85  percent  of  the  member  votes. 
When  such  change  is  made,  the  gain  or  loss  sustained  by  the  fund  on  its  holdings 
of  gold  shall  be  distributed  equitably  among  the  members  of  the  fund. 

The  accounts  of  the  fund  shall  be  kept  and  published  in  terms  of  unitas. 

2.  The  value  of  the  currency  of  each  member  country  shall  be  established  in 
terms  of  unitas  and  may  not  be  altered  except  as  provided  in  IV-5,  below.  (Cf. 
IV-1,  2,  below.) 

No  member  country  shall  purchase  or  acquire  gold,  directly  or  indirectly,  at  a 
price  in  terms  of  its  national  currency  in  excess  of  the  parity  which  corresponds  to 
the  value  of  its  currency  in  terms  of  unitas  and  to  the  value  of  unitas  in  terms  of 
gold;  nor  shall  any  member  country  sell  or  dispose  of  gold,  directly  or  indirectly, 
at  a  price  in  terms  of  its  national  currency  below  the  parity  which  corresponds 
to  the  value  of  its  currency  in  terms  of  unitas  and  to  the  value  of  unitas  in  terms 
of  gold.     (Cf.  VII-1.) 

3.  No  change  in  the  value  of  the  currencies  of  member  countries  shall  be 
permitted  to  alter  the  value  in  unitas  of  the  assets  of  the  fund.  Whenever  the 
currency  of  a  member  country  has  depreciated  to  a  significant  extent,  that  country 
must  deliver  to  the  fund  when  requested  an  amount  of  its  local  currency  or  securi- 
ties equal  to  the  decrease  in  the  unitas  value  of  the  fund's  holdings  of  the  local 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       359 

currency  and  securities  of  the  country.  Likewise,  if  the  currency  of  a  member 
country  should  appreciate  to  a  significant  extent,  the  fund  must  return  to  that 
country  an  amount  (in  the  currency  or  securities  of  that  country)  equal  to  the 
resulting  increase  in  the  unitas  value  of  the  fund's  holdings. 

IV.    EXCHANGE    RATES 

1.  The  rates  at  which  the  fund  will  buy  and  sell  one  member  currency  for  another 
and  at  which  the  fund  will  buy  and  sell  gold  for  local  currency  shall  be  established 
in  accordance  with  the  provisions  below.     (Cf.  also  III-2  and  V-2.) 

2.  The  initial  rates  of  exchange  for  member  countries'  currencies  shall  be 
determined  as  follows: 

(a)  For  any  country  which  becomes  a  member  prior  to  the  date  on  which  the 
funo's  operations  begin,  the  rates  initially  used  by  the  fund  shall  be  based  upon 
the  value  of  the  currency  in  terms  of  United  States  dollars  which  prevailed  on 
July  1,  1943. 

If,  in  the  judgm.ent  of  either  the  member  country  or  the  fund,  the  above  rate  is 
clearly  inappropriate,  the  initial  rate  shall  be  determined  by  consultation  be- 
tween the  member  country  and  the  fund.  No  operations  in  such  currency  shall 
be  undertaken  by  the  fund  until  a  rate  has  been  established  which  has  the  approval 
of  the  fund  and  of  the  member  country  in  question. 

(6)  For  anv  member  coujntry  which  has  been  occupied  by  the  enemy,  the  fund 
shall  use  the  exchange  rate  fixed  by  the  government  of  the  liberated  country  in 
consultation  with  the  fund  and  acceptable  to  the  fund.  Prior  to  the  fixing  of  a 
definitive  rate,  operations  in  such  currency  may  be  undertaken  iDy  the  fund  with 
the  approval  of  the  board  at  a  tentative  rate  of  exchange  fixed  by  the  member 
country  in  consultation  with  the  board.  No  operations  shall  be  continued  under 
this  provision  for  more  than  3  months  after  the  liberation  of  the  country  or  when 
the  local  currency  holdings  of  the  fund  exceed  the  quota  of  the  country,  except 
that  under  special  circumstances  the  period  and  the  amount  of  such  operations 
may  be  extended  by  the  fund. 

3.  The  fund  shall  not  come  into  operation  until  agreement  has  been  reached  on 
the  exchange  rates  for  currencies  of  countries  representing  a  majority  of  the  aggre- 
gate quotas. 

4.  The  fund  shall  determine  the  range  within  which  the  rates  of  exchange  of 
member  currencies  shall  be  permitted  to  fluctuate.      (Cf.  VII-1.) 

5.  Changes  in  the  exchange  value  of  the  currency  of  a  member  country  shall  be 
considered  only  when  essential  to  the  correction  of  fundamental  disequilibrium  in 
its  balance  of  payments,  and  shall  be  made  only  with  the  approval  of  three-fourths 
of  the  member  votes  including  the  representative  of  the  country  concerned. 

Because  of  the  extreme  uncertainties  of  the  immediate  post-war  period,  the 
following  exceptional  provisions  may  be  used  during  the  first  3  years  of  the  fund's 
operations: 

(a)  When  the  existing  rate  of  exchange  of  a  member  country  is  clearly  incon- 
sistent with  the  maintenance  of  a  balanced  international  payments  position  for  that 
country,  changes  from  the  established  rate  may  be  made  at  the  special  request  of 
that  country  and  with  the  approval  of  a  majority  of  the  member  votes. 

(6)  A  member  country  may  change  the  established  rate  for  its  currency  by  not 
more  than  10  percent  provided  that  the  member  country  shall  notify  the  fund  of  its 
intention  and  shall  consult  with  the  fund  on  the  advisability  of  its  action. 

v.    POWERS    AND    OPERATIONS 

1.  The  fund  shall  have  the  power  to  buy,  sell  and  hold  gold,  currencies,  and 
government  securities  of  member  countries;  to  earmark  and  transfer  gold;  to  issue 
its  own  obligations,  and  to  offer  them  for  discount  or  sale  in  member  countries. 

The  fund  shall  purchase  for  local  currency  or  needed  foreign  exchange  any 
member  currency  in  good  standing  acquired  by  another  member  country  in  settle- 
ment of  a  balance  of  payments  on  current  account,  where  such  currency  cannot  be 
disposed  of  in  the  foreign  exchange  markets  within  the  range  established  by  the 
fund. 

2.  The  fund  may  sell  to  the  treasury  of  any  member  country  (or  stabilization 
fund  or  central  bank  acting  as  its  agent)  at  the  accepted  rate  of  exchange,  currency 
of  any  member  country  which  the  fund  holds,  provided  that: 

(a)  The  foreign  exchange  demanded  from  the  fund  is  required  to  meet  an  adverse 
balance  of  payments  predominantly  on  current  account  with  any  member  country. 
(Cf.  V-3,  for  capital  transfers.) 


360      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

When  the  gold  and  free  foreign  exchange  holdings  of  a  member  country  exceed 
50  percent  of  its  quota,  the  fund  in  selling  foreign  exchange  to  such  member 
country  shall  require  that  one-half  of  such  exchange  shall  be  paid  for  with  gold  or 
foreign  exchange  acceptable  to  the  fund.  (Cf.  V-6,  7;  on  gold  collateral,  see 
V-2-C.) 

(6)  The  fund's  total  holdings  of  the  currency  and  securities  of  any  member 
country  shall  not  exceed  the  quota  of  such  country  by  more  than  50  percent  during 
the  first  year  of  operation  of  the  fund,  and  thereafter  shall  not  exceed  such  quota 
by  more  than  100  percent  (except  as  otherwise  provided  below).  The  total  hold- 
ings thus  permitted  are  termed  the  permissible  quota  of  a  country.  When  the 
fund's  holdings  of  local  currency  and  securities  are  equal  to  the  permissible  quota 
of  a  country,  the  fund  may  sell  foreign  exchange  for  such  additional  local  currency 
only  with  the  specific  approval  of  the  board  of  directors  (cf.  VI-3-a,  below),  and 
provided  that  at  least  one  of  the  following  two  conditions  is  met: 

(i)  In  the  judgment  of  the  fund  satisfactory  measures  are  being  or  will  be 
taken  by  the  country  whose  currency  is  acquired  by  the  fund,  to  correct  the 
disequilibrium  in  the  country's  balance  of  payments;  or 

(ii)   It  is  believed  that  tlae  balance  of  payments  of  the  country  whose 

currency  is  acquired  by  the  fund  will  be  such  as  to  warrant  the  expectation 

that  the  excess  currency  holdings  of  the  fund  can  be  disposed   of  within  a 

reasonable  time: 

Provided  further,  That  when  the  fund's  holdings  of  the  currency  of  any  member 

country  or  countries  fall  below  20  percent  of  their  respective  quotas,  the  sale  of 

such  currencies  shall  also  require  the  approval  of  the  representatives  of  these 

countries. 

(c)  When  the  fund's  holdings  of  local  currency  and  securities  exceed  the  per- 
missible quota  of  a  country,  the  board  may  require  the  member  country  to  deposit 
collateral  in  accordance  with  regulations  prescribed  by  the  board.  Such  collateral 
shall  take  the  form  of  gold,  foreign  or  domestic  currency  or  government  bonds,  or 
other  suitable  collateral  within  the  capacity  of  the  member  country. 

(d)  When,  in  the  judgment  of  the  fund,  a  member  country,  whose  currency  and 
securities  held  by  the  fund  exceed  its  quota,  is  exhausting  its  permissible  quota 
more  rapidly  than  is  warranted,  or  is  using  its  permissible  quota  in  a  manner  that 
clearly  has  the  effect  of  preventing  or  unduly  delaying  the  establishment  of  a 
sound  balance  in  its  international  accounts,  the  fund  may  place  such  conditions 
upon  additional  sales  of  foreign  exchange  to  that  country  as  it  deems  to  be  in  the 
general  interest  of  the  fund. 

3.  The  fund  may  sell  foreign  exchange  to  a  member  country,  under  conditions 
prescribed  by  the  fund,  to  facilitate  a  transfer  of  capital,  or  repayment  or  adjust- 
ment of  foreign  debts,  when  in  the  judgment  of  the  board  such  a  transfer  is  de- 
sirable from  the  point  of  view  of  the  general  international  economic  situation, 
provided  the  fund's  holdings  of  the  currency  and  securities  of  the  member  country 
do  not  exceed  150  percent  of  the  quota  of  that  country.  When  the  fund's  holdings 
of  the  local  currency  and  securities  of  a  member  country  exceed  150  percent  of 
the  quota  of  that  country,  the  fund  may,  in  exceptional  circumstances,  sell  foreign 
exchange  to  the  member  country  for  the  above  purposes  with  the  approval  of 
three-fourths  of  the  member  votes.  (Cf.  V-2-a,  above;  on  voting,  VI-3-a, 
below.) 

4.  When  the  fund's  holdings  of  the  currency  and  securities  of  a  member  country 
become  excessively  small  in  relation  to  prospective  acquisitions  and  needs  for  that 
currency,  the  fund  shall  render  a  report  to  that  country.  The  report  shall  embody 
an  analysis  of  the  causes  of  the  depletion  of  the  fund's  holdings  of  that  currency, 
a  forecast  of  the  prospective  balance  of  payments  in  the  absence  of  special  measures 
and,  finally,  recommendations  designed  to  increase  the  fund's  holdings  of  that 
currency.  The  representative  of  the  country  in  question  shall  be  a  member  of 
the  fund  committee  appointed  to  draft  the  report.  This  report  shall  be  sent  to 
all  member  countries  and,  if  deemed  desirable,  be  made  public.  Member  coun- 
tries agree  that  they  will  give  immediate  and  careful  attention  to  recommendations 
made  by  the  fund. 

5.  Whenever  it  becomes  evident  to  the  board  of  directors  that  the  anticipated 
demand  for  any  particular  currency  may  soon  exhaust  the  fund's  holdings  of  that 
currency,  the  fund  shall  inform  the  member  countries  of  the  probable  supply  of 
the  currency  and  of  a  proposed  method  for  its  equitable  distribution,  together  with 
suggestions  for  helping  to  equate  the  anticipated  demand  for  and  supply  of  that 
currency. 

The  fund  shall  make  every  effort  to  increase  the  supply  of  the  scarce  currency 
by  acquiring  that  currency  from  the  foreign  balances  of  member  countries.     The 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       361 

fund  may  make  special  arrangements  with  any  member  country  for  the  purpose 
of  providing  an  emergency  supply  under  appropriate  condifeions  which  are  accept- 
able to  both  the  fund  and  the  member  country. 

To  facilitate  appropriate  adjustment  in  the  balance  of  payments  position  of 
member  countries,  and  to  help  correct  the  distortions  in  the  pattern  of  trade 
balances,  the  fund  shall  apportion  its  sales  of  such  scarce  currency.  In  such  ap- 
portionment, it  shall  be  guided  by  the  principle  of  satisfying  the  most  urgent 
needs  from  the  point  of  view  of  the  general  international  economic  situation.  It 
shall  also  consider  the  special  needs  and  resources  of  the  particular  countries 
making  the  request  for  the  scarce  currency. 

The  right  of  any  member  country  to  acquire  an  amount  of  other  currencies 
equal  to  its  permissible  quota  shall  be  limited  by  the  necessity  of  assuring  an 
appropriate  distribution  among  the  various  members  of  any  currency  the  supply 
of  which  is  scarce. 

6.  In  order  to  promote  the  most  effective  use  of  the  available  and  accumulating 
supply  of  foreign  exchange  resources  of  member  countries,  each  member  country 
agrees  that  it  will  offer  to  sell  to  the  fund,  for  its  local  currency  or  for  foreign  cur- 
rencies which  the  member  country  needs,  one-half  of  the  foreign  exchange  resources 
and  gold  it  acquires  in  excess  of  its  official  holdings  at  the  time  it  became  a  member 
of  the  fund,  but  no  country  need  sell  gold  or  foreign  exchange  under  this  provision 
unless  its  official  holdings  (i.  e.,  treasury,  central  bank,  stabilization  fund,  etc.) 
are  in  excess  of  25  percent  of  its  quota.  For  the  purpose  of  this  provision,  only 
free  and  liquid  foreign  exchange  resources  and  gold  shall  be  considered.  The  fund 
may  accept  or  reject  the  offer.     (Cf.  II-3-a,  V-2-a,  and  V-7.) 

To  help  achieve  this  objective  each  member  country  agrees  to  discourage  the 
excessive  accumulation  of  foreign  exchange  resources  and  gold  by  its  nationals. 
The  fund  shall  inform  any  member  country  when,  in  its  opinion,  any  further  growth 
of  privately  held  foreign  exchange  resources  and  gold  appears  unwarranted. 

7.  When  the  fund's  holdings  of  the  local  currency  and  securities  of  a  member 
country  exceed  the  quota  of  that  country,  the  fund  shall,  upon  request  of  the 
member  country,  resell  to  the  member  country  the  fund's  excess  holdings  of  the 
currency  of  that  country  for  gold  or  acceptable  foreign  exchange.  (Cf.  V-14,  for 
charges  on  holdings  in  excess  of  quota.) 

8.  To  buy  from  the  governments  of  member  countries,  blocked  foreign  bal- 
ances held  in  other  member  countries,  provided  all  the  following  conditions  are  met: 

(a)  The  blocked  balances  are  held  in  member  countries  and  are  reported  as 
such  (for  the  purpose  of  this  provision)  by  the  member  governments  and  are 
verified  by  the  fund. 

(b)  The  member  country  selling  the  blocked  balances  to  the  fund  agrees  to 
transfer  these  balances  to  the  fund  and  to  repurchase  from  the  fund  40  percent 
of  them  (at  the  same  price)  with  gold  or  such  free  currencies  as  the  fund  may  wish 
to  accept,  at  the  rate  of  2  percent  of  the  transferred  balances  each  year  for  20 
years  beginning  not  later  than  3  years  after  the  date  of  transfer. 

(c)  The  country  in  which  the  blocked  balances  are  held  agrees  to  transfer  to 
the  fund  the  balances  described  in  (b)  above,  and  to  repurchase  from  the  fund  40 
percent  of  them  (at  the  same  price)  with  gold  or  such  free  currencies  as  the  fund 
may  wish  to  accept,  at  the  rate  of  2  percent  of  the  transferred  balances  each  year 
for  20  years  beginning  not  later  than  3  years  after  the  date  of  transfer. 

(d)  A  charge  of  1  percent  on  the  amount  of  blocked  balances  sold  to  the  fund, 
payable  in  gold,  shall  be  levied  against  the  country  selling  its  blocked  balances 
and  against  the  country  in  which  the  balances  are  held.  In  addition  a  charge  of 
not  less  than  one  percent,  payable  in  gold,  shall  be  levied  annually  against  each 
country  on  the  amount  of  such  balances  remaining  to  be  purchased  by  it. 

(e)  if  the  countrj'  selling  blocked  balances  to  the  fund  asks  for  foreign  exchange 
rather  than  local  currency,  the  request  will  not  be  granted  unless  the  country 
needs  the  foreign  exchange  for  the  purpose  of  meeting  an  adverse  balance  of  pay- 
ments not  arising  from  the  acquisition  of  gold,  the  accumulation  of  foreign  bal- 
ances, or  other  capital  transactions. 

(/)  Either  country  may,  at  its  option,  increase  the  amount  it  repurchases 
annually.  But,  in  the  case  of  the  country  selling  blocked  balances  to  the  fund, 
not  more  than  2  percent  per  annum  of  the  original  sum  taken  over  by  the  fund 
shall  become  free,  and  only  after  3  years  shall  have  elapsed  since  the  sale  of  the 
balances  to  the  fund. 

(g)  The  fund  has  the  privilege  of  disposing  of  any  of  its  holdings  of  blocked 
balances  as  free  funds  after  the  23-year  period  is  passed,  or  sooner  under  the 
following  conditions: 

(i)   Its  holdings  of  the  free  funds  of  the  country  in  which  the  balances  are 
held  fall  below  20  percent  of  its  quota;  or 


362       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

(ii)  The  approval  is  obtained  of  the  country  in  which  the  balances  are 
held. 

(h)  The  country  in  which  the  blocked  balances  are  held  agrees  not  to  impose 
any  restrictions  on  the  use  of  the  installments  of  the  40  percent  portion  gradually 
repurchased  by  the  country  which  sold  the  balances  to  the  fund. 

(z)  The  fund  agrees  not  to  sell  the  blocked  balances  acquired  under  the  above 
authority,  except  with  the  permission  or  at  the  request  of  the  country  in  which 
the  balances  are  being  held.  The  fund  may  invest  these  balances  in  the  ordinary 
or  special  government  securities  of  that  country.  The  fund  shall  be  free  to  sell 
such  securities  in  any  country  under  the  provisions  of  V-11,  below. 

(j)  The  fund  shall  determine  from  time  to  time  the  maximum  proportion  of  the 
blocked  balances  it  will  purchase  under  this  provision: 

Provided,  however,  That  during  the  first  2  years  of  its  operation,  blocked  bal- 
ances purchased  by  the  fund  shall  not  exceed  in  the  aggregate  10  percent  of  the 
quotas  of  all  member  countries.  At  the  end  of  2  years  of  operation,  the  fund 
shall  propose  a  plan  for  the  gradual  further  liquidation  of  blocked  balances  still 
outstanding  indicating  the  proportion  of  the  blocked  balances  which  the  board 
considers  the  fund  can  appropriately  purchase. 

Blocked  balances  acquired  under  this  provision  shall  not  be  included  either  in 
computing  the  amount  of  foreign  exchange  available  to  member  countries  under 
their  quotas  (cf.  V-2,  3),  or  in  computing  charges  on  balances  of  local  currency 
in  excess  of  the  quotas  (cf.  V-14). 

9.  To  buy  and  sell  currencies  of  non-member  countries  but  shall  not  acquire 
more  than  $10  million  of  the  currency  of  any  one  non-member  country  nor  hold 
such  currencies  beyond  60  days  after  date  of  purchase  except  with  the  approval 
of  the  board. 

10.  To  borrow  the  currency  of  any  member  country  provided  the  additional 
amount  is  needed  by  the  fund  and  provided  the  representative  of  that  country 
approves. 

11.  To  sell  member-country  obligations  owned  by  the  fund  provided  that  the 
representatives  of  the  country  issuing  the  securities  and  of  the  country  in  which 
the  securities  are  to  be  sold  approve,  except  that  the  approval  of  the  representative 
of  the  issuing  country  shall  not  be  necessary  if  the  obligations  are  to  be  sold  in  its 
own  market. 

To  use  its  holdings  to  obtain  rediscounts  or  advances  from  the  central  bank 
of  any  country  whose  currency  the  fund  needs. 

12.  To  invest  any  of  its  currency  holdings  in  government  securities  of  the 
countrv  of  that  currency  provided  that  the  representative  of  the  country  approves. 

13.  'To  lend  to  any  member  country  its  local  currency  from  the  fund  for  1  year 
or  less  up  to  75  percent  of  the  currency  of  that  country  held  by  the  fund,  provided 
the  local  currency  holdings  of  the  fund  are  not  reduced  below  20  percent  of  the 
quota. 

14.  To  make  a  service  charge  on  all  gold  and  exchange  transactions. 

To  levy  a  charge  uniform  to  all  countries,  at  a  rate  not  less  than  1  percent  per 
annum,  payable  in  gold,  against  any  country  on  the  amount  of  its  currency  held 
by  the  fund  in  excess  of  the  quota  of  that  country.  An  additional  charge,  payable 
in  gold,  shall  be  levied  by  the  fund  against  any  member  country  on  the  fund's 
holdings  of  its  currency  in  excess  of  the  permissible  quota  of  that  country. 

In  case  the  fund  finds  it  necessary  to  borrow  currency  to  meet  the  demands 
of  its  members,  an  additional  charge,  payable  in  gold,  shall  be  made  by  the  fund 
sufficient  to  cover  the  cost  of  the  borrowing. 

15.  To  levy  upon  member  countries  a  pro  rata  share  of  the  expenses  of  operating 
the  fund,  payable  in  local  currency,  not  to  exceed  one-tenth  percent  per  annum 
of  the  quota  of  each  country.  The  levy  may  be  made  only  to  the  extent  that  the 
earnings  of  the  fund  are  inadequate  to  meet  its  current  expenses. 

16.  The  fund  shall  deal  only  with  or  through — 

(a)  The  treasuries,  stabilization  funds,  or  central  banks  acting  as  fiscal  agents 
of  member  governments. 

(b)  Any  international  banks  owned  predominantly  by  member  governments. 
The  fund  may,  nevertheless,  with  the  approval  of  the  representatives  of  the 

governments  of  the  countries  concerned,  sell  its  own  securities,  or  securities  it 
holds,  directly  to  the  public  or  to  institutions  of  member  countries. 

VI.    MANAGEMENT 

1.  The  administration  of  the  fund  shall  be  vested  in  a  board  of  directors. 
Each  government  shall  appoint  a  director  and  an  alternate,  in  a  manner  deter- 
mined by  it,  who  shall  serve  for  a  period  of  5  years,  subject  to  the  pleasure  of 
their  government.     Directors  and  alternates  may  be  reappointed. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       363 

2.  In  all  voting  by  the  board,  the  director  or  alternate  of  each  member  country 
shall  be  entitled  to  cast  an  agreed  upon  number  of  votes. 

The  distribution  of  basic  voles  shall  be  closely  related  to  the  quotas  of  member 
countries,  although  not  in  precise  proportion  to  the  quotas.  An  appropriate  dis- 
tribution of  basic  voting  power  would  seem  to  be  the  following:  Each  country 
shall  have  100  votes,  plus  1  vote  for  the  equivalent  of  each  100,000  unitas  ($1 
million)  of  its  quota. 

No  country  shall  be  entitled  to  cast  more  than  one-fifth  of  the  aggregate  basic 
votes,  regardless  of  its  quota. 

3.  All  voting  shall  be  according  to  basic  votes  except  as  follows: 

(a)  In  voting  on  proposals  to  authorize  the  sale  of  foreign  exchange,  each 
country  shall  cast  a  number  of  votes  modified  from  its  basic  vote: 

(i)  By  the  addition  of  one  vote  for  each  $2  million  of  net  sales  of  its  cur- 
rency by  the  fund  (adjusted  for  its  net  transactions  in  gold),  and 

(ii)  By  the  subtraction  of  one  vote  for  each  $2  million  of  its  net  purchases 
of  foreign  exchange  from  the  fund  (adjusted  for  its  net  transactions  in  gold) 

(6)  In  voting  on  proposals  to  suspend  or  restore  membership,  each  member 
country  shall  cast  one  vote,  as  provided  in  VI- 11,  below. 

4.  All  decisions,  except  where  specifically  provided  otherwise,  shall  be  made  by  a 
majority  of  the  member  votes. 

5.  The  board  of  directors  shall  select  a  managing  director  of  the  fund  and  one 
or  more  assistants.  The  managing  director  shall  become  an  ex  officio  member  of 
the  board  and  shall  be  chief  of  the  operating  staff  of  the  fund.  The  operating 
staff  shall  be  selected  in  accordance  with  regulations  established  by  the  board  of 
directors. 

6.  The  board  of  directors  shall  appoint  from  among  its  members  an  executive 
committee  of  not  less  than  11  members.  The  chairman  of  the  board  shall  be 
chairman  of  the  executive  committee,  and  the  managing  director  of  the  fund  shall 
be  an  ex  officio  member  of  the  executive  committee. 

The  executive  committee  shall  be  continuously  available  at  the  head  office  of 
the  fund  and  shall  exercise  the  authority  delegated  to  it  by  the  board.  In  the 
absence  of  any  member  of  the  executive  committee,  his  alternate  shall  act 
in  his  place.  Members  of  the  executive  committee  shall  receive  appropriate 
remuneration. 

7.  The  board  of  directors  may  appoint  such  other  committees  as  it  finds  neces- 
sary for  the  work  of  the  fund.  It  may  also  appoint  advisory  committees  chosen 
wholly  or  partially  from  persons  not  employed  by  the  fund. 

8.  The  board  of  directors  may  at  any  meeting  authorize  any  ofl^cers  or  com- 
mittees of  the  fund  to  exercise  any  specified  powers  of  the  board  not  requiring 
more  than  a  majority  vote. 

The  board  may  delegate  any  authority  to  the  executive  committee,  provided 
that  the  delegation  of  powers  requiring  more  than  a  majoritj'  of  the  member  votes 
can  be  authorized  only  by  a  majority  (of  the  board)  of  the  same  size  as  specified, 
and  can  be  exercised  by  the  executive  committee  only  by  like  majority. 

Delegated  powers  shall  be  exercised  only  until  the  next  meeting  of  the  board 
and  in  a  manner  consistent  with  the  general  policies  and  practices  of  the  board. 

9.  The  board  of  directors  may  establish  procedural  regulations  governing  the 
operations  of  the  fund.  The  officers  and  committees  of  the  fund  shall  be  bound  by 
such  regulations. 

10.  The  board  of  directors  shall  hold  an  annual  meeting  and  such  other  meetings 
as  it  may  be  desirable  to  convene.  The  annual  meeting  shall  be  held  in  places 
designated  by  the  executive  committee,  but  not  more  than  one  annual  meeting  in 
any  5-year  period  shall  be  held  within  the  same  member  country. 

On  request  of  member  countries  casting  one-fourth  of  the  votes,  the  chairman 
shall  call  a  meeting  of  the  board  for  the  purpose  of  considering  any  matters  placed 
before  it. 

11.  A  country  failing  to  meet  its  obligations  to  the  fund  may  be  suspended 
provided  a  majority  of  the  member  countries  so  decides.  While  under  suspension, 
the  country  shall  be  denied  the  privileges  of  membership  but  shall  be  subject  to 
the  same  obligations  as  any  other  member  of  the  fund.  At  the  end  of  1  year  the 
country  shall  be  automatically  dropped  from  membership  unless  it  has  been 
restored  to  good  standing  by  a  majority  of  the  member  countries. 

Any  country  may  withdraw  from  the  fund  by  giving  notice,  and  its  withdrawal 
will  take  effect  1  year  from  the  date  of  such  notice.  During  the  interval  between 
notice  of  withdrawal  and  the  taking  effect  of  the  notice,  such  country  shall  be 
subject  to  the  same  obligations  as  any  other  member  of  the  fund. 


364       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

A  country  which  is  dropped  or  which  withdraws  from  the  fund  shall  have 
returned  to  it  an  amount  in  its  own  currency  equal  to  its  contributed  quota,  plus 
other  obligations  of  the  fund  to  the  country,  and  minus  any  sum  owed  by  that 
country  to  the  fund.  Any  losses  of  the  fund  may  be  deducted  -pro  rata  from  the 
contributed  quota  to  be  returned  to  the  country  that  has  been  dropped  or  has 
withdrawn  from  membership.  Local  currency  holdings  of  the  fund  in  excess  of 
the  above  shall  be  repurchased  by  that  country  with  gold  or  foreign  exchange 
acceptable  to  the  fund. 

When  any  country  is  dropped  or  withdraws  from  membership,  the  rights  of 
the  fund  shall  be  fully  safeguarded.  The  obligations  of  a  country  to  the  fund 
shall  become  due  at  the  time  it  is  dropped  or  withdraws  from  membership;  but 
the  fund  shall  have  5  years  within  which  to  liquidate  its  obligations  to  such 
country. 

12.   Net  profits  earned  by  the  fund  shall  be  distributed  in  the  following  manner: 

(a)  Fifty  percent  to  reserves  until  the  reserves  are  equal  to  10  percent  of  the 
aggregate  quotas  of  the  fund. 

{h)  Fifty  percent  to  be  divided  each  year  among  the  members  in  proportion  to 
their  quotas.  Dividends  distributed  to  each  country  shall  be  paid  in  its  own 
currency  or  in  gold  at  the  discretion  of  the  fund. 

VII.    POLICIES    OF    MEMBER    COUNTRIES 

Each  member  country  of  the  fund  undertakes  the  following: 

1.  To  maintain  by  appropriate  action  exchange  rates  estalDlished  by  the  fund 
on  the  currencies  of  other  countries,  and  not  to  alter  exchange  rates  except  as 
provided  in  IV-5,  above. 

Exchange  rates  of  member  countries  may  be  permitted  to  fluctuate  within  the 
specified  range  fixed  by  the  fund. 

2.  Not  to  engage  in  exchange  dealings  with  member  or  non-member  countries 
that  will  undermine  stability  of  exchange  rates  established  by  the  fund. 

3.  To  abandon,  as  soon  as  the  member  countr,y  decides  that  conditions  permit, 
all  restrictions  (other  than  those  involving  capital  transfers)  over  foreign  exchange 
transactions  with  other  member  countries,  and  not  to  impose  any  additional 
restrictions  (except  upon  caijital  transfers)  without  the  approval  of  the  fund. 

The  fund  may  make  representations  to  member  countries  that  conditions  are 
favorable  for  the  abandonment  of  restrictions  over  foreign  exchange  transactions, 
and  each  member  country  shall  give  consideration  to  svich  representations. 

All  member  countries  agree  that  all  of  the  local  currency  holdings  of  the  fund 
shall  be  free  from  any  restrictions  as  to  their  use.  This  provision  does  not  apply 
to  blocked  foreign  balances  acquired  by  the  fund  in  accordance  with  the  provisions 
of  V-8,  above. 

4.  To  cooperate  effectively  with  other  member  countries  when  such  countries, 
with  the  approval  of  the  fund,  adopt  or  continue  controls  for  the  purpose  of  regu- 
lating international  movements  of  capital.  Cooperation  shall  include,  upon 
recommendation  by  the  fund,  measures  that  can  appropriately  be  taken,  such  as: 

(a)  Not  to  accept  or  permit  acquisition  of  deposits,  securities,  or  investments 
bj  nationals  of  any  member  country  imposing  restrictions  on  the  export  of  capital 
except  with  the  permission  of  the  government  of  that  country  and  the  fund; 

{h)  To  make  available  to  the  fund  or  to  the  government  of  any  member  country 
such  information  as  the  fvmd  considers  necessary  on  property  in  the  form  of  de- 
posits, securities,  and  investments  of  the  nationals  of  the  member  country  imoos- 
ing  the  restrictions. 

5.  Not  to  enter  upon  any  new  bilateral  clearing  arrangements,  nor  engage  in 
multiple  currency  practices,  which  in  the  judgment  of  tne  fund  would  retard  the 
growth  of  world  trade  or  the  international  flow  of  productive  capital. 

6.  To  give  consideration  to  the  views  of  tiie  fund  on  any  existing  or  proposed 
monetary  or  economic  policy,  the  effect  of  which  would  be  to  bring  about  sooner 
or  later  a  serious  disequilibrium  in  the  balance  of  paj  ments  of  other  countries. 

7.  To  furnish  the  fund  with  all  information  it  needs  for  its  operations  and  to 
furnish  such  reports  as  the  fund  maj'  require  in  the  form  and  at  the  times  requested 
by  the  fund. 

8.  To  adopt  appropriate  legislation  or  decrees  to  carry  out  its  undertakings  to 
the  fund. 


REPORT   OP   THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY  365 

Exhibit  40 

Tentative  proposal  for  a  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development  of  the  United  and 

Associated  Nations 

Statement  of  the  Secketart  of  the  Treasury,  November  23,  1943,  Relative 
TO  THE  Tentative  Proposal  for  a  Bank  for  Reconstruction  and  Devel- 
opment 

When  the  Treasury  made  public  the  tentative  proposal  for  an  international 
stabilization  fund,  I  said  that  we  were  studying  means  of  encouraging  and  facil- 
itating international  investment  for  reconstruction  and  development.  A  few 
weeks  ago  I  appeared  before  the  congressional  committees  and  summarized  for 
them  the  principles  which  we  believe  should  guide  us  in  the  establishment  of  a 
United  Nations  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development. 

The  technical  staffs  of  the  Treasury  and  other  interested  departments  and 
agencies  have  now  prepared  a  tentative  proposal  for  such  a  bank.  This  tentative 
proposal  is  being  sent  to  the  finance  ministers  of  the  United  Nations  and  the 
countries  associated  with  them,  for  consideration  and  for  study  by  their  technical 
staffs.  The  finance  ministers  have  been  informed  that  this  tentative  proposal 
does  not  represent  the  official  views  of  this  Government  but  it  is  an  indication  of 
the  views  held  by  our  technical  staffs. 

We  are  releasing  for  publication  the  tentative  proposal  for  a  United  Nations 
bank  for  reconstruction  and  development  and  a  covering  memorandum  on  the 
problem  of  international  investment.  These  two  documents,  sent  to  the  finance 
ministers,  are  being  released  to  make  them  available  for  public  discussion.  It  is 
our  intention  to  discuss  the  tentative  proposal  with  business,  banking,  and  other 
interested  groups  in  this  country. 

The  technical  staffs  of  the  Treasury  and  other  departments  of  this  Government 
are  of  the  opinion  that  an  international  stabilization  fund  and  a  bank  for  recon- 
struction and  development  could  help  provide  a  sound  financial  foundation  on 
which  private  enterprise  can  build  a  prosperous  world  economy. 


Preliminary  Draft  Outline  Dated  November  24,  1943,  of  a  Proposal  for  a 
Bank  for  Reconstruction  and  Development 

foreword  by  secretary  of  the  treasury  morgenthau 

One  of  the  important  international  economic  and  financial  problems  which  will 
confront  the  United  Nations  at  the  end  of  the  war  will  be  the  unprecedented  need 
for  foreign  capital.  In  the  areas  devastated  by  war  or  plundered  and  ravaged  by 
the  enemy,  factories  and  mines,  public  utilities  and  railroads,  public  buildings  and 
public  works  will  have  to  be  repaired  or  restored.  In  most  of  the  United  Nations, 
industries  now  producing  war  goods  will  require  capital  for  reconversion  to  peace- 
time production  and  in  many  areas  of  the  world,  large  investment  will  be  needed 
for  industrial,  agricultural,  and  commercial  development. 

Countries  whose  productive  capacities  have  been  seriously  impaired  by  war  will 
find  that  their  industries  cannot  provide  the  capital  goods  and  their  people  cannot 
provide  the  savings  required  for  investment  in  reconstruction.  Most  nonindu.strial 
countries  will  of  necessity  be  dependent  upon  foreign  capital  to  acquire  the  funds 
for  the  purchase  of  machinery,  equipment,  and  other  capital  goods  necessary  for 
development.  And  even  in  those  countries  where  a  considerable  part  of  the  need 
for  capital  can  be  met  locally,  there  will  be  some  need  for  foreign  capital  to  supple- 
ment the  funds  that  can  be  raised  at  home. 

With  the  return  of  an  assured  peace,  private  financial  agencies  may  be  expected 
to  supply  most  of  the  needed  short-term  foreign  capital.  When  the  shipping 
situation  is  improved  and  peacetime  industry  here  and  abroad  has  recovered, 
many  business  firms  will  be  eager  to  sell  their  products  abroad  on  reasonable  and 
even  generous  credit  terms.  And  banks  likewise  will  hasten  to  expand  their  foreign 
business,  reopening  and  establishing  branches  abroad,  and  assisting  in  the  financing 
of  international  trade. 

It  is  not  unreasonable  to  expect  that  with  the  return  of  peace  there  will  also  be  a 
gradual  resumption  of  long-term  international  investment,  particularly  through 
the  establishment  of  foreign  branch  plants  and  the  acquisition  of  shares  in  estab- 
lished foreign  enterprises.     With  the  growth  of  confidence  in  monetary  stability, 


366       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

foreign  investments  will  gradually  assume  the  form  of  publicly  floated  loans  to 
governments  and  municipalities,  and  to  public  utilities  and  other  industries. 

This  flow  of  private  capital  to  war  stricken  countries  will  be  encouraged  by  an 
adequate  program  of  international  relief  and  rehabilitation  which  helps  to  restore 
quickly  to  a  working  basis  the  economic  life  of  those  countries.  Another,  and 
possibly  even  more  important,  stimulus  to  foreign  investment  would  be  the  exist- 
ence of  an  international  agency,  such  as  the  international  stabilization  fund,  de- 
signed to  promote  stability  of  foreign  exchange  rates  and  freedom  from  restrictions 
on  the  withdrawal  of  earnings.  Such  an  agency  could  do  much  to  enhance  the 
attractiveness  of  foreign  investments. 

While  there  will  undoubtedly  be  substantial  amounts  of  long-term  foreign  invest- 
ment even  in  the  early  post-war  period,  the  flow  of  capital  to  countries  greatly  in 
need  of  foreign  capital  is  likely  to  be  inadequate  for  many  years  to  come.  Private 
capital  will  understandably  hesitate  to  venture  abroad  in  anything  like  the  re- 
quired volume.  It  has  suffered  too  many  losses  from  war,  from  depreciating  cur- 
rencies, from  exchange  restrictions,  and  from  failures  and  defaults.  There  is 
little  evidence  to  justify  the  hope  that  in  the  years  immediately  after  the  war  in- 
vestors will  lend  the  large  sums  that  can  be  economically  used  in  foreign  countries 
unless  steps  are  taken  to  restore  confidence  in  foreign  investment. 

It  would  be  desirable  to  encourage  in  every  way,  the  provision  of  capital  for 
sound  and  productive  purposes  through  private  investment  channels,  and  to  the 
extent  that  private  investment  is  inadequate,  to  provide  supplemental  facilities. 
The  problem  is  fundamentally  an  international  problem  and  only  an  international 
agency  equipped  with  broad  powers  and  large  resources  can  effectively  encourage 
private  capital  to  flow  abroad  in  adequate  amounts  and  provide  a  part  of  the  capital 
not  otherwise  available. 

The  primary  aim  of  such  an  agency  should  be  to  encourage  private  capital  to 
go  abroad  for  productive  investment  by  sharing  the  risks  of  private  investors  and 
by  participating  with  private  investors  in  large  ventures.  The  provision  of  some 
of  the  capital  needed  for  reconstruction  and  development,  where  private  capital  is 
unable  to  take  the  risk,  is  intended  to  remain  secondary  in  the  operations  of  such 
an  agency.  It  should,  of  course,  scrupulously  avoid  undertaking  loans  that 
private  investors  are  willing  to  make  on  reasonable  terms.  It  should  perform 
onlv  that  part  of  the  task  which  private  capital  cannot  do  alone. 

The  need  for  foreign  capital  will  be  so  great  and  the  provision  of  adequate 
capital  so  important  that  it  would  be  extremely  short-sighted  to  neglect  this 
lu-gent  international  problem.  If  private  capital  should  suffice  there  would  then 
be  little  for  an  international  agency  to  do,  beyond  encouraging  private  investment. 
If,  however,  private  capital  were  to  prove  unable  fully  to  meet  the  needs,  then  such 
an  international  agencv  would  be  able  to  fill  the  breach  until  private  capital  again 
flowed  freely  and  the  demand  for  foreign  capital  throughout  the  world  became  less 
urgent. 

It  is  imperative  that  we  recognize  that  the  investment  of  productive  capital  in 
undeveloped  and  in  capital-needy  countries  means  not  only  that  those  countries 
will  be  able  to  supply  at  lower  costs  more  of  the  goods  the  world  needs,  but  that 
they  will  at  the  same  time  become  better  markets  for  the  world's  goods.  By 
investing  in  countries  in  need  of  capital,  the  lending  countries,  therefore,  help 
themselves  as  well  as  the  borrowing  countries.  If  the  capital  made  available  to 
foreign  countries  would  not  otherwise  have  been  currently  employed,  and  if  it  is 
used  for  productive  purposes,  then  the  whole  world  is  truly  the  gainer.  Foreign 
trade  everywhere  will  be  increased;  the  real  cost  of  producing  the  goods  the  world 
consumes  will  be  lowered;  and  the  economic  well-being  of  the  borrowing  and 
lending  countries  will  be  raised. 

One  great  contribution  that  the  United  Nations  can  make  to  sustained  peace 
and  world-wide  prosperity  is  to  make  certain  that  adequate  capital  is  available 
on  reasonable  terms  for  productive  uses  in  capital-poor  countries.  With  abundant 
capital,  the  devastated  countries  can  move  steadily  toward  rehabilitation  and  a 
constantly  improving  standard  of  living.  Nothing  could  be  more  conducive  to 
political  stability  and  to  international  collaboration.  Without  adequate  supplies 
of  capital,  however,  recovery  in  Europe  and  Asia  will  be  slow  and  sporadic,  and 
economic  discontent  and  international  bitterness  will  in  time  assume  disturbing 
proportions. 

Accompanying  this  memorandum  is  a  draft  proposal  for  a  bank  for  reconstruc- 
tion and  development  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations.  The  draft  was 
prepared  by  the  technical  staff  of  the  United  States  Treasury  in  consultation  with 
the  technical  staffs  of  other  departments  of  this  Government.  The  proposal  has 
neither  official  status  nor  the  approval  of  any  department  of  this  Government. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       367 

It  is  in  outline  form,  touching  on  the  more  important  points,  and  is  intended 
only  to  stimulate  thoughtful  discussion  of  the  problem  in  the  hope  that  such  dis- 
cussion will  call  forth  constructive  criticism,  suggestions,  and  alternative  proposals 
for  possible  later  submission  to  the  appropriate  authorities  and  to  the  public. 

A  United  Nations  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development  is  proposed  as 
another  international  agency  needed  to  help  attain  and  maintain  world-wide  pros- 
perity after  the  war.  It  is  designed  as  a  companion  agency  to  an  international 
stabilization  fund.  Each  agency  could  stand  and  function  effectively  without  the 
other;  but  the  establishment  of  such  a  bank  would  make  easier  the  task  of  an 
international  stabilization  fund,  and  the  successful  operation  of  such  a  fund  would 
enhance  the  effectiveness  of  the  bank. 

PREAMBLE 

1.  The  provision  of  foreign  capital  will  be  one  of  the  important  international 
economic  and  financial  problems  of  the  post-war  period.  Many  countries  will 
require  capital  for  reconstruction,  for  the  conversion  of  their  industries  to  peace- 
time needs,  and  for  the  development  of  their  productive  resources.  Others  will 
find  that  foreign  investment  provides  a  growing  market  for  their  goods.  Sound 
international  investment  will  be  of  immense  benefit  to  the  lending  as  well  as  to 
the  borrowing  countries. 

2.  Even  in  the  early  post-war  years  it  may  be  hoped  that  a  considerable  part 
of  the  capital  for  international  investment  will  be  provided  through  private  in- 
vestment channels.  It  will  undoubtedly  be  necessary,  however,  to  encourage 
private  investment  by  assuming  some  of  the  risks  that  will  be  especially  large 
immediately  after  the  war  and  to  supplement  private  investment  with  capital 
provided  through  international  cooperation.  The  United  Nations  bank  for 
reconstruction  and  development  is  proposed  as  a  permanent  institution  to 
encourage  and  facilitate  international  investment  for  sound  and  productive 
purposes. 

3.  The  bank  is  intended  to  cooperate  with  private  financial  agencies  in  making 
available  long-term  capital  for  reconstruction  and  development  and  to  supple- 
ment such  investment  where  private  agencies  are  unable  to  meet  fully  the  legiti- 
mate needs  for  capital  for  productive  purposes.  The  bank  would  make  no  loans 
or  investments  that  could  be  secured  from  private  investors  on  reasonable  terms. 
The  principal  function  of  the  bank  would  be  to  guarantee  and  to  participate  in 
loans  made  by  private  investment  agencies  and  to  lend  directly  from  its  own  re- 
sources whatever  additional  capital  may  be  needed.  The  facilities  of  the  bank 
would  be  available  onlj^  for  approved  governmental  and  business  projects  which 
have  been  guaranteed  by  national  governments.  Operating  under  these  princi- 
ples, the  bank  should  be  a  powerful  factor  in  encouraging  the  provision  of  private 
capital  for  international  investment. 

4.  By  making  certain  that  capital  is  available  for  productive  uses  on  reasonable 
terms,  the  bank  can  make  an  important  contribution  to  enduring  peace  and  pros- 
perity. With  adequate  capital,  countries  affected  by  the  war  can  move  steadily 
toward  reconstruction,  and  the  newer  countries  can  undertake  the  economic 
development  of  which  they  are  capable.  International  investment  for  these 
purposes  can  be  a  significant  factor  in  expanding  trade  and  in  helping  to  maintain 
a  high  level  of  business  activity  throughout  the  world. 

I.    THE    PURPOSES    OF    THE    BANK 

1.  To  assist  in  the  reconstruction  and  development  of  member  countries  by 
cooperating  with  private  financial  agencies  in  the  provision  of  capital  for  sound 
and  constructive  international  investment. 

2.  To  provide  capital  for  reconstruction  and  development,  under  conditions 
which  will  amply  safeguard  the  bank's  funds,  when  private  financial  agencies  are 
unable  to  supply  the  capital  needed  for  such  purposes  on  reasonable  terms  con- 
sistent with  the  borrowing  policies  of  member  countries. 

3.  To  facilitate  a  rapid  and  smooth  transition  from  a  wartime  economy  to  a 
peacetime  economy  by  increasing  the  flow  of  international  investment,  and  thus 
to  help  avoid  serious  disruption  of  the  economic  life  of  member  countries. 

4.  To  assist  in  raising  the  productivity  of  member  countries  by  helping  to 
make  available  through  international  collaboration  long-term  capital  for  the 
sound  developmejQt  of  productive  resources. 

5.  To  promote  the  long-range  balanced  growth  of  international  trade  among 
member  countries. 


368  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE   TREASURY 

II.    CAPITAL    STRUCTURE    OF    THE    BANK 

1.  The  authorized  capital  shall  be  equivalent  to  about  $10  billion  consisting  of 
shares  having  a  par  value  equal  to  $100,000. 

2.  The  shares  of  the  bank  shall  be  nontransferable,  nonassessable,  and  non- 
taxable. The  liability  on  shares  shall  be  limited  to  the  unpaid  portion  of  the 
subscription  price. 

3.  Each  government  which  is  a  member  of  the  international  stabihzation  fund 
shall  subscribe  to  a  minimum  number  of  shares  to  be  determined  by  a  formula  to 
be  agreed  upon.  The  formula  shall  take  into  account  such  relevant  data  as  the 
national  income  and  the  international  trade  of  the  member  country. 

Such  a  formula  would  make  the  subscription  of  the  United  States  approximately 
one-third  of  the  total. 

4.  Payments  on  subscriptions  to  the  shares  of  the  bank  shall  be  made  as 
follows; 

(a)  The  initial  payment  of  each  member  country  shall  be  20  percent  of  its 
subscription,  some  portion  of  which  (not  to  exceed  20  percent)  shall  be  in  gold 
and  the  remainder  in  local  currency.  The  proportions  to  be  paid  in  gold  and 
local  currency  shall  be  graduated  according  to  a  schedule  to  be  agreed  upon 
which  shall  take  into  account  the  adequacy  of  the  gold  and  free  foreign  exchange 
holdings  of  each  member  country. 

(6)  The  member  countries  shall  make  the  initial  payment  within  60  days  after 
the  date  set  for  the  operations  of  the  bank  to  begin.  The  remainder  of  their  re- 
spective subscriptions  shall  be  paid  in  such  amounts  and  at  such  times  as  the  board 
of  directors  may  determine,  but  not  more  than  20  percent  of  the  subscription  may 
be  called  in  any  one  year. 

(c)  Calls  for  further  payment  on  subscriptions  shall  be  uniform  on  all  shares,  and 
no  calls  shall  be  made  unless  funds  are  needed  for  the  operations  of  the  bank.  The 
proportion  of  subsequent  payments  to  be  made  in  gold  shall  be  determined  by  the 
schedule  in  II-4-a  as  it  applies  to  each  member  country  at  the  time  of  each  call. 

5.  A  substantial  part  of  the  subscribed  capital  of  the  bank  shall  be  reserved  in 
the  form  of  unpaid  subscriptions  as  a  surety  fund  for  the  securities  guaranteed  by 
the  bank  or  i.ssued  by  the  bank. 

6.  When  the  cash  resources  of  the  bank  are  substantially  in  excess  of  prospective 
needs,  the  board  may  return,  subject  to  future  call,  uniform  proportions  of  the  sub- 
scriptions. When  the  local  currency  holdings  of  the  bank  exceed  20  percent  of  the 
subscription  of  any  member  country,  the  board  may  arrange  to  repurchase  with 
local  currency  some  of  the  shares  held  by  such  a  country. 

7.  Each  member  country  agrees  to  repurchase  each  year  part  of  its  currency  held 
by  the  bank  amounting  to  not  more  than  2  percent  of  its  paid  subscription,  paying 
for  it  with  gold:  Provided,  however,  That: 

(a)  This  requirement  may  be  generally  suspended  for  any  year  by  a  three-fourths 
vote  of  the  board. 

{h)  No  country  shall  be  required  to  repurchase  local  currency  in  any  given  year 
in  excess  of  one-half  of  the  addition  to  its  official  holdings  of  gold  during  the  pre- 
ceding year. 

(c)  The  obligation  of  a  member  country  to  repurchase  its  local  currency  shall  be 
limited  to  the  amount  of  the  local  currency  paid  on  its  subscription. 

8.  All  member  countries  agree  that  all  of  the  local  currency  holdings  and  other 
assets  of  the  bank  located  in  their  countries  shall  be  free  from  any  special  restric- 
tions as  to  their  use,  except  such  restrictions  as  are  consented  to  by  the  bank,  and 
subject  to  IV-13,  below. 

9.  The  resources  and  the  facilities  of  the  bank  shall  be  used  exclusively  for  the 
benefit  of  member  countries. 

III.    THE    INTERNATIONAL    MONETARY    UNIT 

1.  The  monetary  unit  of  the  bank  shall  be  the  unit  of  the  international  stabiliza- 
tion fund  (137)^  grains  of  fine  gold,  that  is,  equivalent  to  $10  U.  S.). 

2.  The  bank  shall  keep  its  accounts  in  terms  of  this  unit.  The  local  currency 
assets  of  the  bank  are  to  be  guaranteed  against  any  depreciation  in  their  value  in 
terms  of  gold. 

IV.    POWERS    AND    OPERATIONS 

1.  To  achieve  the  purposes  stated  in  Section  I,  the  bank  may  guarantee,  par- 
ticipate in,  or  make  loans  to  any  member  country  and  through  the  government  of 
such  country  to  any  of  its  political  subdivisions  or  to  business  or  industrial  enter- 
prises therein  under  conditions  provided  below. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       369 

(a)  The  payment  of  interest  and  principal  is  fully  guaranteed  by  the  national 
government. 

(6)  The  borrower  is  otherwise  unable  to  secure  tiie  funds  from  other  sources, 
even  with  the  national  government's  guarantee  of  repaj^ment,  inider  conditions 
which  in  the  opinion  of  the  bank  are  reasonable. 

(c)  A  competent  committee  has  made  a  careful  study  of  the  merits  of  the  project 
or  the  program  and,  in  a  written  report,  concludes  that  the  loan  would  serve 
directly  or  indirectly  to  raise  the  productivity  of  the  borrowing  country  and 
that  the  prospects  are  favorable  to  the  servicing  of  the  loan.  The  majority  of  the 
committee  making  the  report  shall  consist  of  members  of  the  technical  staff  of  the 
bank.  The  committee  shall  include  an  expert  selected  by  the  country  requesting 
the  loan,  who  may  or  ma.v  not  be  a  meml)er  of  the  technical  staff  of  the  bank. 

(d)  The  bank  shall  make  arrangements  to  assure  the  use  of  the  proceeds  of 
any  loan  which  it  guarantees,  participates  in,  or  makes  for  the  purposes  for  which 
the  loan  was  approved. 

(e)  The  bank  shall  guarantee,  participate  in,  or  make  loans  only  at  reasonable 
rates  of  interest  with  a  schedule  of  repayment  appropriate  to  the  character  of 
the  project  and  the  balance  of  paj-ments  prospects  of  the  country  of  the  borrower. 

2.  In  accordance  with  the  provisions  in  IV-1,  above,  the  bank  may  guarantee, 
in  whole  or  in  part,  loans  made  by  private  investors:  Provided,  further: 

(a)  The  rate  of  interest  and  other  conditions  of  the  loan  are  reasonable. 

(b)  The  bank  is  compensated  for  its  risk  in  guaranteeing  the  loan. 

3.  The  bank  may  participate  in  loans  placed  through  the  usual  investment 
channels,  provided  that  all  the  conditions  listed  under  IV-1  above  are  met 
except  that  the  rate  of  interest  ma}'  be  higher  than  if  the  loans  were  guaranteed 
by  the  bank. 

4.  The  bank  may  encourage  and  facilitate  international  investment  in  equity 
securities  by  securing  the  guarantee  by  governments  of  conversion  into  foreign 
exchange  of  the  current  earnings  of  such  foreign  held  investments.  In  promoting 
this  objective  the  bank  may  also  participate  in  such  investments,  but  its  aggregate 
participation  in  such  equity  securities  shall  not  exceed  10  percent  of  its  paid-in 
capital. 

5.  The  bank  may  publicly  offer  any  securities  it  has  previously  acquired.  To 
facilitate  the  sale  of  such  securities,  the  bank  may,  in  its  discretion,  guarantee 
them. 

6.  The  bank  shall  make  no  loans  or  investments  that  can  be  placed  through 
the  usual  private  investment  channels  on  reasonable  terms.  The  bank  shall  by 
regulation  prescribe  procedure  for  its  operations  that  will  assure  the  application 
of  this  principle. 

7.  The  bank  shall  impose  no  condition  upon  a  loan  as  to  the  particular  member 
country  in  which  the  proceeds  of  the  loan  must  be  spent:  Provided,  however,  That 
the  proceeds  of  a  loan  may  not  be  spent  in  any  coimtrj'  which  is  not  a  member 
country  without  the  approval  of  the  bank. 

8.  The  bank  in  making  loans  shall  provide  that: 

(a)  The  foreign  exchange  in  connection  with  the  j^roject  or  program  shall  be 
provided  by  the  bank  in  the  currencies  of  the  countries  in  which  the  proceeds  of 
the  loan  will  be  spent,  and  only  with  the  approval  of  such  countries. 

(b)  The  local  currency  needs  in  connection  with  the  project  shall  be  largely 
financed  locally  without  the  assistance  of  the  bank. 

(c)  In  special  circumstances,  where  the  bank  considers  that  the  local  part  of 
any  project  cannot  be  financed  at  home  except  on  very  unreasonable  terms,  it 
can  lend  that  portion  to  the  borrower  in  local  currency. 

(d)  Where  the  developmental  program  will  give  rise  to  an  increased  need  for 
foreign  exchange  for  purposes  not  directly  needed  for  that  program,  yet  resulting 
from  the  program,  the  bank  will  provide  an  appropriate  part  of  the  loan  in  gold 
or  desired  foreign  exchange. 

9.  When  a  loan  is  made  by  the  bank,  it  shall  credit  the  account  of  the  borrower 
with  the  amount  of  the  loan.  Payment  shall  be  made  from  this  account  to  meet 
drafts  covering  audited  expenses. 

10.  Loans  participated  in  or  made  by  the  bank  shall  contain  the  following 
payment  provisions: 

(a)  Payment  of  interest  on  loans  shall  be  made  in  currencies  acceptable  to  the 
bank  or  in  gold.     Interest  will  be  payable  only  on  amounts  withdrawn. 

(6)  Payment  on  account  of  principal  of  a  loan  shall  be  in  currencies  acceptable 
to  the  bank  or  in  gold.  If  the  bank  and  the  borrower  should  so  agree  at  the  time 
a  loan  is  made,  payment  on  principal  may  be  in  gold,  or  at  the  option  of  the  bor- 
rower, in  the  currency  actually  borrowed. 

613185 — 45 25 


370       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

(c)  In  the  event  of  an  acute  exchange  stringency  the  bank  may  accept  local 
currency  in  payment  of  interest  and  principal  for  periods  not  exceeding  three  years. 
The  bank  shall  arrange  with  the  borrowing  country  for  the  repurchase  of  such 
local  currency  over  a  period  of  years  under  appropriate  terms  that  safeguard  the 
value  of  the  bank's  holdings  of  such  currency. 

(d)  Payments  of  interest  and  principal,  whether  made  in  member  currencies 
or  in  gold,  must  be  equivalent  to  the  gold  value  of  the  loan  and  of  the  contractual 
interest  thereon. 

11.  The  bank  may  levy  a  charge  against  the  borrower  for  its  expenses  in  investi- 
gating any  loan  placed,  guaranteed,  participated  in,  or  made  in  whole  or  in  part 
by  the  bank. 

12.  The  bank  may  guarantee,  participate  in,  or  make  loans  to  international 
governmental  agencies  for  objectives  consonant  with  the  purposes  of  the  bank, 
provided  that  at  least  one-half  of  the  participants  in  the  international  agencies 
are  members  of  the  bank. 

13.  In  considering  any  application  to  guarantee,  participate  in,  or  make  a  loan 
to  a  member  country,  the  bank  shall  give  due  regard  to  the  effect  of  such  a  loan 
on  business  and  financial  conditions  in  the  country  in  which  the  loan  is  to  be  spent 
and  shall,  accordingly,  obtain  the  consent  of  the  country  affected. 

14.  At  the  request  of  the  countries  in  which  portions  of  the  loan  are  spent,  the 
bank  will  repurchase  for  gold  or  needed  foreign  exchange  a  part  of  the  local  cur- 
rency proceeds  of  the  loan  expended  by  the  borrower  in  those  countries. 

15.  With  the  approval  of  the  representatives  of  the  governments  of  the  member 
countries  involved,  the  bank  may  engage  in  the  following  operations: 

(a)  It  may  issue,  buy  or  seU,  pledge,  or  discount  any  of  its  own  securities  and 
obligations,  or  securities  and  obligations  taken  from  its  portfolio,  or  securities 
which  it  has  guaranteed. 

(6)  It  may  borrow  from  member  governments,  fiscal  agencies,  central  banks, 
stabilization  funds,  private  financial  institutions  in  member  countries,  or  from 
international  financial  agencies. 

(c)  It  may  buy  or  sell  foreign  exchange,  after  consultation  with  the  international 
stabilization  fund,  where  such  transactions  are  necessary  in  connection  with  its 
operations. 

16.  The  bank  may  act  as  agent  or  correspondent  for  the  governments  of  mem- 
ber countries,  their  central  banks,  stabilization  funds  and  fiscal  agencies,  and  for 
international  financial  institutions. 

The  bank  may  act  as  trustee,  registrar,  or  agent  in  connection  with  loans  guar- 
anteed, participated  in,  made,  or  placed  through  the  bank. 

17.  Except  as  otherwise  indicated,  the  bank  shall  deal  only  with  or  through. 

(a)  The  governments  of  member  countries,  their  central  banks,  stabilization 
funds,  and  fiscal  agencies. 

(b)  The  international  stabilization  fund  and  any  other  international  financial 
agencies  owned  predominantly  by  member  governments. 

The  bank  may,  nevertheless,  with  the  approval  of  the  member  of  the  board 
representing  the  government  of  the  country  concerned,  deal  with  the  public  or 
institutions  of  member  countries  in  the  bank's  own  securities  or  securities  which 
it  has  guaranteed. 

18.  If  the  bank  shall  declare  any  country  as  suspended  from  menibership,  the 
member  governments  and  their  agencies  agree  not  to  extend  financial  assistance 
to  that  country  without  approval  of  the  bank  until  the  country  has  been  restored 
to  membership. 

19.  The  bank  and  its  officers  shall  scrupulously  avoid  interference  in  the 
political  affairs  of  any  member  country.  This  provision  shall  not  limit  the  right 
of  an  officer  of  the  bank  to  participate  in  the  political  life  of  his  own  country. 

The  bank  shall  not  be  influenced  in  its  decisions  with  respect  to  applications  for 
loans  by  the  political  character  of  the  government  of  the  country  requesting  a 
loan. 

V.  MANAGEMENT 

1.  The  administration  of  the  bank  shall  be  vested  in  a  board  of  directors  com- 
posed of  one  director  and  one  alternate  appointed  by  each  member  government 
in  a  manner  to  be  determined  by  it. 

The  director  and  alternate  shall  serve  for  a  period  of  3  years,  subject  to  the 
pleasure  of  their  government.     Directors  and  alternates  may  be  reappointed. 

2.  Voting  by  the  board  shall  be  as  follows : 

(a)  The  director  or  alternate  of  each  member  country  shall  be  entitled  to  cast 
1,000  votes  plus  one  vote  for  each  share  of  stock  held.     Thus,  a  government 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       371 

owning  one  share  will  cast  1,001  votes,  while  a  government  owning  1,000  shares 
will  cast  2,000  votes. 

(6)   No  country  shall  cast  more  than  25  percent  of  the  aggregate  votes. 

(c)  Except  where  otherwise  provided,  decisions  of  the  board  of  directors  shall 
be  by  simple  majority  of  the  votes  cast,  each  member  of  the  board  casting  the  votes 
allotted  to  his  government.  When  deemed  to  be  in  the  best  interests  of  the  bank, 
decisions  of  the  board  may  be  made,  without  a  meeting,  by  polling  the  directors 
on  specific  questions  submitted  to  them  in  such  manner  as  the  board  shall  by 
regulation  provide. 

3.  The  board  of  directors  shall  select  a  president  of  the  bank,  who  shall  be  the 
chief  of  the  operating  staff  of  the  bank  and  ex-officio  a  member  of  the  board,  and 
one  or  more  vice  presidents.  The  president  and  vice  presidents  of  the  bank  shall 
hold  oflSce  for  4  years,  shall  be  eligible  for  reelection  and  may  be  removed  for  cause 
at  any  time  by  the  board.  The  staff  of  the  bank  shall  be  selected  in  accordance 
with  regulations  established  by  the  board  of  directors. 

4.  The  board  of  directors  shall  appoint  from  among  its  members  an  executive 
committee  of  not  more  than  nine  members.  The  president  of  the  bank  shall  be  an 
ex-officio  member  of  the  executive  committee. 

The  executive  committee  shall  be  continuously  available  at  the  head  office  of 
the  bank  and  shall  exercise  the  authority  delegated  to  it  by  the  board.  In  the 
absence  of  any  member  of  the  executive  committee  his  alternate  on  the  board  shall 
act  in  his  place.  Members  of  the  executive  committee  shall  receive  appropriate 
remuneration. 

5.  The  board  of  directors  shall  select  an  advisory  council  of  seven  members. 
The  council  shall  advise  with  the  board  and  the  officers  of  the  bank  on  matters  of 
general  policy.  The  council  shall  meet  annually  and  on  such  other  occasions  as 
the  board  may  request. 

The  members  of  the  advisory  council  shall  be  selected  from  men  of  outstanding 
ability,  but  not  more  than  one  member  shall  be  selected  from  the  same  country. 
They  shall  serve  for  2  years,  and  the  term  of  any  member  may  be  renewed. 
Members  of  the  council  shall  be  paid  their  expenses  and  a  remuneration  to  be 
fixed  by  the  board. 

6.  The  board  of  directors  may  appoint  such  other  committees  as  it  finds  neces- 
sary for  the  work  of  the  bank.  It  may  also  appoint  advisory  cominittees  chosen 
wholly  or  partially  from  persons  not  regularly  employed  by  the  bank. 

7.  The  board  of  directors  may  authorize  any  officers  or  committees  of  the  bank 
to  exercise  any  specified  powers  of  the  board  except  the  powers  to  guarantee,  par- 
ticipate in,  or  make  loans.  Delegated  powers  shall  be  exercised  in  a  manner  con- 
sistent with  the  general  policies  and  practices  of  the  board. 

The  board  may  by  a  three-fourths  vote  delegate  to  the  executive  committee  the 
power  to  guarantee^  participate  in,  or  make  loans  in  such  amounts  as  may  be  fixed 
by  the  board.  In  passing  upon  applications  for  loans,  the  executive  committee 
shall  act  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  specified  for  each  type  of  loan. 

8.  A  member  country  failing  to  meet  its  financial  obligations  to  the  bank  may  be 
declared  in  default  and  may  be  suspended  from  membership  during  the  period  of 
its  default,  provided  that  a  majority  of  the  member  countries  so  decides. 

While  under  suspension,  the  country  shall  be  denied  the  privileges  of  member- 
ship but  shall  be  subject  to  the  obligations  of  membership.  At  the  end  of  1  year 
the  country  shall  be  dropped  automatically  from  membership  in  the  bank  unless 
it  has  been  restored  to  good  standing  by  a  majority  of  the  member  countries. 

If  a  member  country  elects  to  withdraw  or  is  dropped  from  the  bank,  its  shares 
of  stock  shall,  if  the  bank  has  a  surplus,  be  repurchased  at  the  price  paid.  If  the 
bank's  books  show  a  loss,  such  country  shall  bear  a  proportionate  share  of  the  loss. 
The  bank  shall  have  5  years  in  which  to  liquidate  its  obligations  to  a  member 
country  withdrawing  or  dropped  from  the  bank. 

Any  member  country  that  withdraws  or  is  dropped  from  the  international  stabi- 
lization fund  shall  lose  its  membership  in  the  bank  unless  three-fourths  of  the 
member  votes  favor  its  remaining  as  a  member. 

9.  The  yearly  net  profits  shall  be  applied  as  follows: 

(a)  All  profits  shall  be  distributed  in  proportion  to  shares  held,  except  that  one- 
fourth  of  the  profits  shall  be  applied  to  surplus  until  the  surplus  equals  20  percent 
of  the  subscribed  capital. 

(&)  Profits  shall  be  payable  in  a  country's  local  currency  or  in  gold  at  the  option 
of  the  bank. 

10.  The  bank  shall  collect  and  make  available  to  member  countries  and  to  the 
international  stabilization  fund  financial  and  economic  information  and  reports 
relating  to  the  operations  of  the  bank. 


372       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Member  countries  shall  furnish  the  bank  with  all  information  and  data  that 
would  facilitate  the  operations  of  the  bank. 


Exhibit  41 


Statements  on,  and  swtnmary  of  recommendations  for,  an  international  monetary 
fund  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations 

Statement  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  April  21,  1944,  Before  the 
Senate  Committees  on  Foreign  Relations  and  Banking  and  Currency, 
AND  THE  Special  Senate  Committee  on  Post- War  Economic  Policy  and 
Planning  and  Before  the  House  of  Representatives  Committee  on 
Foreign  Affairs,  Ways  and  Means,  Banking  and  Currency,  and  Coinage, 
Weights  and  Measures,  and  the  Special  House  Committee  on  Post- 
war Economic  Policy  and  Planning 

I  am  happy  to  tell  you  today  that  technical  experts  of  the  United  Nations 
have  agreed  upon  a  set  of  basic  principles  for  an  international  monetary  fund. 
This  is  a  great  step  forward.  It  is  of  greatest  importance  to  all  of  us  who  believe 
that  the  nations  of  the  world  can  cooperate  in  dealing  with  international  economic 
problems. 

Technicians  representing  some  of  these  thirty  nations  have  prepared  a  joint 
statement  of  the  principles  which  are  agreed  upon.  This  statement  does  not, 
of  course,  bind  any  government  to  participate  in  the  international  monetary 
fund,  though  it  does  mean  that  the  fund  will  be  recommended  to  each  of  the 
governments  as  a  practical  means  of  meeting  post-war  monetary  problems. 

I  want  to  call  particular  attention  to  some  of  the  facts  contained  in  this  joint 
statement,  but  before  I  do  thai;  I  should  like  to  review  with  you  some  of  the  things 
that  have  happened  since  I  appeared  before  these  committees  on  October  5  of 
last  year.  At  that  time,  I  told  you  I  would  like  to  keep  you  informed  of  progress, 
and  accordingly  I  appreciate  this  opportunity  to  bring  you  up  to  date. 

Since  I  last  talked  to  you,  we  have  discussed  the  principles  of  the  international 
stabilization  and  investment  program  with  bankers,  labor  representatives,  and 
other  interested  groups  in  Washington,  Chicago,  Boston,  Philadelphia,  New 
York,  and  other  cities.  Out  of  these  meetings  came  helpful  suggestions,  many 
of  which  were  incorporated  in  our  plans. 

The  vast  majority  of  those  with  whom  we  have  talked  are  inclined  to  look 
favorably  upon  the  principle  of  cooperation  to  maintain  stable  and  orderly 
exchange  rates.  Informed  opinion  seems  to  point  to  private  investment  on  a 
world-wide  basis  as  vital  to  post-war  recovery  and  reconstruction ;  and  the  stabili- 
zation of  currencies  among  the  United  Nations  through  the  medium  of  an  inter- 
national fund,  is  generall}^  believed  to  be  a  necessary  prerequisite  to  this  invest- 
ment. I  believe  we  cannot  expect  American  businessmen,  nor  businessmen  of 
any  nation,  to  take  major  financial  risks,  immediately  upon  the  heels  of  a  catas- 
trophic global  war,  without  some  assurance  that  steps  have  been  taken  to  prevent 
their  investments  from  being  jeopardized  by  unduly  fluctuating  money  values  and 
severe  exchange  restrictions. 

Having  studied  the  world  picture  after  the  last  war,  we  are  all  agreed  that  an 
effort  must  be  made  to  prevent,  insofar  as  possible,  harmful  fluctuations  of  cur- 
rency ;  and  to  prohibit  deliberate  manipulation  of  currencies  in  an  effort  to  secure 
unfair  competitive  advantage  in  world  trade. 

When  I  was  here  on  October  5,  I  spoke  of  a  projected  international  bank  for 
reconstruction  and  development. 

Because  discussions  on  the  bank  were  initiated  somewhat  later  they  are  not  yet 
completely  finished.  I  can  tell  you,  however,  that  there  is  considerable  support 
for  the  general  jirinciples  embodied  in  the  world  bank,  and  that  good  progress 
has  been  made. 

Those  with  whom  we  have  discussed  the  problem  of  reviving  post-war  inter- 
national investment  regard  the  bank  as  essential  to  the  expansion  of  international 
trade  and  the  maintenance  of  a  high  level  of  business  activity.  They  believe  it 
necessary  to  take  steps  to  encourage  and  aid  private  investors  in  providing  an 
adequate  vohune  of  long-term  investment  capital  for  productive  purposes. 

The  discussions  we  have  had  contemplate  the  establishment  of  a  bank  for  recon- 
struction and  development  to  facilitate  long-term  investment  capital  through 
private  financial  agencies  by  guaranteeing  and  participating  in  loans  made  by 
private    investors.     The    bank    would    also   supplement    investment    of   private 


REPORT  OP  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       373 

financial  agencies  if  this  becomes  necessary,  by  lending  for  productive  purposes 
from  its  own  resources  when  private  capital  is  otherwise  not  available  on  reason- 
able terms. 

A  full  statement  of  recommendations  on  the  establishment  of  such  a  bank  and  of 
the  principles  on  which  such  a  bank  should  be  based  is  still  in  preparation  by 
technicians.  It  is  my  hope  that  this  statement  will  soon  be  coinpleted  and  that  it 
will  be  issued  later.     Before  it  is  published,  I  shall  fully  inform  your  committees. 

Now  I  should  like  to  explain  briefly  some  of  the  principles  upon  which  the 
technicians  are  agreed  in  connection  with  the  international  monetary  fund. 

Here  are  the  purposes  and  policies  as  set  forth  in  the  joint  statement: 

(1)  To  promote  international  monetary  cooperation  through  a  permanent 
institution  which  provides  the  machinery  for  consultation  on  international 
monetary  problems. 

(2)  To  facilitate  the  expansion  and  balanced  growth  of  international  trade  and 
to  contribute  in  this  way  to  the  maintenance  of  a  high  level  of  employment  and 
real  income,  which  must  be  a  primary  objective  of  economic  policy. 

(3)  To  give  confidence  to  member  countries  by  making  the  fund's  resources 
available  to  them  under  adequate  safeguards,  thus  giving  members  time  to  correct 
maladjustments  in  their  balance  of  payments  without  resorting  to  measures 
destructive  of  national  or  international  prosperity. 

(4)  To  promote  exchange  stability,  to  maintain  orderly  exchange  arrange- 
ments among  member  countries,  and  to  avoid  competitive  exchange  depreciation. 

(5)  To  assist  in  the  establishment  among  member  coimtries  of  multilateral 
payments  facilities  on  current  transactions  and  to  aid  in  the  elimination  of  foreign 
exchange  restrictions  which  hamper  the  growth  of  world  trade. 

(6)  To -shorten  the  periods  and  lessen  the  degree  of  disequilibrium  in  the  inter- 
national balance  of  payments  of  member  countries. 

The  joint  statement  recommends  that  all  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations 
subscribe  approximately  $8  billion  to  the  fund  in  the  form  of  gold  and  local  cur- 
rency. The  resources  of  the  fund  would  be  available  under  adequate  safeguards 
to  help  member  countries  to  maintain  exchange  stability  and  to  correct  malad- 
justments in  their  balance  of  payments.  Member  countries  would  be  able  to 
buy  foreign  exchange  from  the  fund  with  their  own  currencies,  to  the  extent  of 
their  quotas,  in  order. to  meet  international  payments  consistent  with  the  pur- 
poses of  the  fund. 

The  par  value  of  currencies  of  member  countries  would  be  expressed  in  gold  and 
could  be  changed  only  at  the  request  of  member  countries  after  consultation  and 
approval  of  the  fimd.  I'he  fund  would  approve  a  requested  change  in  parity  only 
if  it  were  essential  to  correct  a  fundamental  disequilibrmm.  Prompt  consider- 
ation would  be  given  to  requests  for  necessary  adjustment  of  exchange  rates. 
Member  countries  would  not  allow  their  exchange  rates  to  fluctuate  outside  a 
narrow  range  based  on  the  agreed  gold  parity. 

Voting  power  in  the  fund  would  be  closely  related  to  quotas.  A  member 
country  could  withdraw  from  the  fund  immediately  by  giving  notice  in  writing, 
and  obligations  would  be  liquidated  within  a  reasonable  time. 

During  the  period  of  transition  following  the  war,  member  countries  would  be 
permitted  to  retain  their  exchange  controls  with  the  exi)ectation  that  these  would 
gradually  be  relaxed. 

I  am  frank  to  say  that  in  my  ojiinion  the  agreement  of  the  technical  experts  to 
these  principles  constitutes  a  long  step  on  the  way  toward  preventing  a  break- 
down of  ciuTencies  and  the  imposition  and  retention  of  restrictive  and  discrim- 
inatory exchange  measures  after  the  war.  Through  international  cooperation 
now,  we  can  assure  a  stable  and  orderly  pattern  of  post-war  exchange  rates. 

The  purposes  set  forth  in  this  joint  statement  have  long  been  the  international 
monetary  policies  of  the  United  States.  For  years  it  has  been  our  objective  to 
have  these  policies  ado])ted  by  other  countries.  We  know  of  no  better  way  of 
assuring  general  adnerence  to  these  policies  than  through  international  cooDeration 
in  an  international  monetar3'  fund. 

We  believe  that  it  is  of  the  greatest  importance  that  all  of  the  United  Nations 
are  in  agreement  on  the  best  means  to  deal  with  these  international  financial 
problems  after  the  war.  This  is  concrete  evidence  that  the  United  Nations  can 
and  will  work  together  in  establishing  a  peaceful  and  prosperous  world  just  as  they 
are  now  fighting  together  to  destroy  tyranny  and  oppression. 

International  cooperation  on  monetary  and  financial  matters  is  the  ke^'stone  of 
successful  cooperation  on  all  international  economic  problems.  Unless  we  agree 
to  expand  world  trade  and  develop  the  world  economy,  few  other  economic  agree- 
ments which  we  might  make  will  or  can  be  eiTective. 


374       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  tentative  proposals  that  have  been  under  discussion  by  the  technical 
experts  are  part  of  a  program  for  cooperation  on  international  economic  problems 
among  the  United  Nations.  The  objectives  of  this  program  are  the  expansion 
and  development  of  international  trade,  the  restoration  of  international  invest- 
ment for  productive  purposes,  the  maintenance  of  stable  and  orderly  exchanges. 
Through  these  means  we  can  contribute  to  a  high  level  of  employment  and 
production.  The  establishment  of  an  international  monetary  fund  and  a  bank 
for  reconstruction  and  development  are  important  steps  in  the  attainment  of  the 
objectives  of  this  broad  program. 

I  want  to  emphasize  again  that  the  discussions  up  to  now  have  all  been  of  a 
technical  nature  and  exploratory  in  character.  Whatever  has  been  done  repre- 
sents the  views  of  the  technical  experts  of  this  country  and  of  other  countries 
that  have  been  studying  these  questions.  The  United  States  is  not  in  any  way 
committed  until  Congress  has  taken  action. 

It  is  my  hope  that  after  studying  the  recommendations  of  the  technical  experts 
the  governments  of  the  United  Nations  will  come  to  the  conclusion  that  there  is 
sufficient  basis  of  agreement  at  a  technical  level  to  warrant  the  convening  of  a 
formal  conference. 

I  am  happy  to  say  that  the  President  has  authorized  me  to  state  that  if  a  con- 
ference is  held  it  is  his  intention  to  invite  direct  congressional  participation  in 
the  work  of  the  United  States  delegation. 


Joint  Statement  by  Experts,  April  21,  1944,  on  the  Establishment  op  an 
International  Monetary  Fund 

foreword  by  secretary  op  the  treasury  morgenthau 

The  publication  of  the  joint  statement  of  the  recommendations  of  the  experts 
on  an  international  monetary  fund  is  concrete  evidence  that  the  United  Nations 
can  and  will  cooperate  in  establishing  a  peaceful  and  prosperous  world. 

It  is  a  matter  of  gratification  that  the  agreement  of  the  experts  on  principles 
for  international  monetary  cooperation  was  reached  in  harmony  with  the  best 
traditions  of  democracy.  Tentative  proposals  prepared  by  the  technical  experts 
of  the  United  States,  the  United  Kingdom  and  Canada  were  published  and  widely 
distributed.  In  this  country,  the  representatives  of  the  Treasury  and  of  other 
departments  discussed  the  tentative  proposals  with  interested  groups  in  Washing- 
ton, Chicago,  Boston,  St.  Louis,  Philadelphia,  New  York,  and  other  cities.  Out  of 
these  meetings  came  helpful  suggestions,  many  of  which  were  incorporated  in  the 
joint  statement.  In  the  meantime,  exploratory  discussions  were  going  on  between 
the  technical  representatives  of  the  United  States  and  the  technical  representa- 
tives of  more  than  30  other  countries.  As  a  result  of  these  discussions,  an  agree- 
ment was  reached  by  the  experts  recommending  the  establishment  of  an  inter- 
national monetary  fund  as  the  most  practical  method  of  assuring  international 
monetary  cooperation. 

The  tentative  proposals  that  have  been  under  discussion  by  the  exi>erts  are 
part  of  a  broad  program  for  cooperation  on  international  economic  problems 
among  the  United  Nations.  The  objectives  of  this  program  are  the  expansion 
and  development  of  international  trade,  the  revival  of  international  investment 
for  productive  purposes,  the  establishment  of  orderly  and  stable  exchange  rates, 
and  the  elimination  of  discriminatory  exchange  practices  that  hamper  world  trade. 
The  attainment  of  these  objectives  wiU  go  far  toward  preventing  serious  eco- 
nomic disruption  in  many  countries  during  the  critical  decade  after  the  war. 

The  discussions  up  to  now  have  all  been  of  a  technical  nature  and  exploratory 
in  character.  What  has  been  done  represents  the  views  of  the  technical  experts 
of  this  country  and  other  countries  that  have  been  studying  the  question.  The 
United  States  will  not  in  any  way  be  committed  until  Congress  takes  action. 

joint    STATEMENT    BY    EXPERTS 

Sufficient  discussion  of  the  problems  of  international  monetary  cooperation  has 
taken  place  at  the  technical  level  to  justify  a  statement  of  principles.  It  is  the 
consensus  of  opinion  of  the  experts  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations  who  have 
participated  in  these  discussions  that  the  most  practical  method  of  assuring  inter- 
national monetary  cooperation  is  through  the  establishment  of  an  international 
monetary  fund.  The  principles  set  forth  below  are  designed  to  constitute  the 
basis  for  this  fund.     Governments  are  not  asked  to  give  final  approval  to  these 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       375 

principles  until  they  have  been  embodied  in  the  form  of  definite  proposals  by  the 
delegates  of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations  meeting  in  a  formal  conference. 

I.    PURPOSES~AND    POLICIES^OF~THE    FUND 

The  fund  will  be  guided  in  all  its  decisions  by  the  purposes  and  policies  set  forth 
below: 

1.  To  promote  international  monetary  cooperation  through  a  permanent  insti- 
tution which  provides  the  machinery  for  consultation  on  international  monetary 
problems. 

2.  To  facilitate  the  expansion  and  balanced  growth  of  international  trade  and 
to  contribute  in  this  way  to  the  maintenance  of  a  high  level  of  employment  and 
real  income,  which  must  be  a  primary  objective  of  economic  policy. 

3.  To  give  confidence  to  member  countries  by  making  the  fund's  resources 
available  to  them  under  adecjuate  safeguards,  thus  giving  members  time  to  correct 
maladjustments  in  their  balance  of  payments  without  resorting  to  measures 
destructive  of  national  or  international  prosperity. 

4.  To  promote  exchange  stability,  to  maintain  orderly  exchange  arrangements 
among  member  countries,  and  to  avoid  competitive  exchange  depreciation. 

5.  To  assist  in  the  establishment  of  multilateral  payments  facilities  on  current 
transactions  among  member  countries  and  in  the  elimination  of  foreign  exchange 
restrictions  which  hamper  the  growth  of  world  trade. 

6.  To  shorten  the  periods  and  lessen  the  degree  of  disequilibrium  in  the  inter- 
national balance  of  payments  of  member  countries. 

II.    SUBSCRIPTION    TO    THE    FUND 

1.  Member  countries  shall  subscribe  in  gold  and  in  their  local  funds  amounts 
(quotas)  to  be  agreed,  which  will  amount  altogether  to  about  $8  billion  if  all  the 
United  and  Associated  Nations  subscribe  to  the  fund  (corresponding  to  about  $10 
billion  for  the  world  as  a  whole). 

2.  The  quotas  may  be  revised  from  time  to  time  but  changes  shall  require  a 
four-fifths  vote  and  no  member's  quota  may  be  changed  without  its  assent. 

3.  The  obligatory  gold  subscription  of  a  member  country  shall  be  fixed  at  25 
percent  of  its  subscription  (quota)  or  10  percent  of  its  holdings  of  gold  and  gold- 
convertible  exchange,  whichever  is  the  smaller. 

III.    TRANSACTIONS    WITH    THE    FUND 

1.  Member  countries  shall  deal  with  the  fund  only  through  their  treasury, 
central  bank,  stabilization  fund,  or  other  fiscal  agencies.  The  fund's  account  in 
a  member's  currency  shall  be  kept  at  the  central  bank  of  the  member  country. 

2.  A  member  shall  be  entitled  to  buy  another  member's  currency  from  the 
fund  in  exchange  for  its  own  currency  on  the  following  conditions: 

(a)  The  member  represents  that  the  currency  demanded  is  presently  needed 
for  making  payments  in  that  currency  which  are  consistent  with  the  purposes  of 
the  fund. 

(6)  The  fund  has  not  given  notice  that  its  holdings  of  the  currency  demanded 
have  become  scarce  in  which  case  the  provisions  of  VI,  below,  come  into  force. 

(c)  The  fund's  total  holdings  of  the  currency  oflFered  (after  having  been  restored, 
if  below  that  figure,  to  75  percent  of  the  member's  quota)  have  not  been  increased 
by  more  than  25  percent  of  the  member's  quota  during  the  previous  12  months 
and  do  not  exceed  200  percent  of  the  quota. 

(d)  The  fund  has  not  previously  given  appropriate  notice  that  the  member  is 
suspended  from  making  further  use  of  the  fund's  resources  on  the  ground  that  it 
is  using  them  in  a  manner  contrary  to  the  purposes  and  policies  of  the  fund;  but 
the  fund  shall  not  give  such  notice  until  it  has  presented  to  the  member  concerned 
a  report  setting  forth  its  views  and  has  allowed  a  suitable  time  for  reply. 

The  fund  may  in  its  discretion  and  on  terms  which  safeguard  its  interests 
waive  any  of  the  conditions  above. 

3.  The  operations  on  the  fund's  account  will  be  limited  to  transactions  for  the 
purpose  of  supplying  a  member  country  on  the  member's  initiative  with  another 
member's  currency  in  exchange  for  its  own  currency  or  for  gold.  Transactions 
provided  for  under  4  and  7,  below,  are  not  subject  to  this  limitation. 

4.  The  fund  will  be  entitled  at  its  option,  with  a  view  to  preventing  a  particular 
member's  currency  from  becoming  scarce: 

(a)   To  borrow  its  currency  from  a  member  country; 

(6)   To  offer  gold  to  a  member  coimtry  in  exchange  for  its  currency. 


376       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

5.  So  long  as  a  member  country  is  entitled  to  buy  another  member's  currency 
from  the  fund  in  exchange  for  its  own  currency,  it  shall  be  prepared  to  buy  its 
own  currency  from  that  member  with  that  member's  currency  or  with  gold.  This 
shall  not  apply  to  currency  subject  to  restrictions  in  conformity  with  IX,  3  below, 
or  to  holdings  of  currency  which  have  accumulated  as  a  result  of  transactions  of 
a  current  account  nature  effected  before  the  removal  by  the  member  country  of 
restrictions  on  multilateral  clearing  maintained  or  imposed  under  X,  2  below. 

6.  A  member  country  desiring  to  obtain,  directly  or  indirectly,  the  currency  of 
another  member  country  for  gold  is  expected,  provided  that  it  can  do  so  with 
equal  advantage,  to  acquire  the  currency  by  the  sale  of  gold  to  the  fund.  This 
shall  not  preclude  the  sale  of  newly  mined  gold  by  a  gold-producing  country  on 
any  market. 

7.  The  fund  may  also  acquire  gold  from  member  countries  in  accordance  with 
the  following  provisions: 

(a)  A  member  country  may  repurchase  from  the  fund  for  gold  any  part  of  the 
latter's  holdings  of  its  currency. 

(6)  So  long  as  a  member's  holdings  of  gold  and  gold-convertible  exchange  ex- 
ceed its  quota,  the  fund  in  selling  foreign  exchange  to  that  country  shall  require 
that  one-half  of  the  net  sales  of  such  exchange  during  the  fund's  financial  year  be 
paid  for  with  gold. 

(c)  If  at  the  end  of  the  fund's  financial  year  a  member's  holdings  of  gold  and 
gold-convertible  exchange  have  increased,  the  fund  may 'require  up  to  ono-half 
of  the  increase  to  be  used  to  repurchase  part  of  the  fund's  holdings  of  its  currency 
so  long  as  this  does  not  reduce  the  fund's  holdings  of  a  country's  currency  below 
75  percent  of  its  quota  or  the  member's  holdings  of  gold  and  gold-convertible  ex- 
change below  its  quota. 

IV.    PAR    VALUES    OF    MEMBKR    CURRENCIES 

1.  The  par  value  of  a  member's  currency  shall  be  agreed  with  the  fund  when 
it  is  admitted  to  membership,  and  shall  be  expressed  in  terms  of  gold.  All  trans- 
actions between  the  fund  and  members  shall  be  at  par,  subject  to  a  fixed  charge 
payable  by  the  member  making  application  to  the  fund,  and  all  transactions  in 
member  currencies  shall  be  at  rates  within  an  agreed  percentage  of  parity. 

2.  Subject  to  5,  below,  no  change  in  the  par  value  of  a  member's  currency  shall 
be  made  by  the  fund  without  the  country's  approval.  Member  countries  agree 
not  to  propose  a  change  in  the  parity  of  their  currency  unless  they  consider  it 
appropriate  to  the  correction  of  a  fundamental  disequilibrium.  Changes  shall 
be  made  only  with  the  approval  of  the  fund,  subject  to  the  provisions  below. 

3.  The  fund  shall  approve  a  requested  change  in  the  par  value  of  a  member's 
currency,  if  it  is  essential  to  the  correction  of  a  fundamental  disequilibrium.  In 
particular,  the  fund  shall  not  reject  a  requested  change,  necessary  to  restore 
equilibrium,  because  of  the  domestic  social  or  political  policies  of  the  country 
applying  for  a  change.  In  considering  a  requested  change,  the  fund  shall  take 
into  consideration  the  extreme  uncertainties  prevailing  at  the  time  the  parities 
of  the  currencies  of  the  member  countries  were  initially  agreed  upon. 

4.  After  consulting  the  fund,  a  member  country  may  change  the  established 
parity  of  its  currency,  provided  the  proposed  change,  inclusive  of  any  previous 
change  since  the  establishment  of  the  fund,  does  not  exceed  10  percent.  In  the 
case  of  application  for  a  further  change,  not  covered  by  the  above  and  not  exceed- 
ing 10  percent,  the  fund  shall  give  its  decision  within  2  days  of  receiving  the  appli- 
cation, if  the  applicant  so  requests. 

5.  An  agreed  uniform  change  may  be  made  in  the  gold  value  of  member  cur- 
rencies, provided  every  member  country  having  10  percent  or  more  of  the  aggregate 
quotas  approves. 

V.    CAPITAL    TRANSACTIONS 

1.  A  member  countr\-  may  not  use  the  fund's  resources  to  meet  a  large  or  sus- 
tained outflow  of  capital,  and  the  fund  may  require  a  member  countr.y  to  exercise 
controls  to  prevent  such  use  of  the  resources  of  the  fund.  This  provision  is  net 
intended  to  prevent  the  use  of  the  fund's  resources  for  capital  transactions  of 
reasonable  amount  required  for  the  expansion  of  exports  or  in  the  ordinary  course 
of  trade,  banking,  or  other  l)usiness.  Nor  is  it  intended  to  prevent  capital  mo^•e- 
ments  which  are  met  out  of  a  member  country's  own  resources  of  gold  and  foreign 
exchange,  provided  such  capital  movements  are  in  accordance  with  the  purposes 
of  the  fund. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       377 

2.  Subject  to  VI  below,  a  member  country  may  not  use  its  control  of  capital 
movements  to  restrict  payments  for  current  transactions  or  to  delay  unduly  the 
transfer  of  funds  in  settlement  of  commitments. 

VI.    APPORTIONMENT    OF    SCARCE    CURRENCIES 

1.  When  it  becomes  evident  to  the  fund  that  the  demand  for  a  member  coun- 
try's currency  may  soon  exhaust  the  fund's  holdings  of  that  currency,  the  fund 
shall  so  inform  member  countries  and  propose  an  equitable  method  of  apportioning 
the  scarce  currency.  When  a  currency  is  thus  declared  scarce,  the  fund  shall 
issue  a  report  embodying  the  causes  of  the  scai'city  and  containing  recommenda- 
tions designed  to  bring  it  to  an  end. 

2.  A  decision  by  the  fund  to  apportion  a  scarce  currency  shall  operate  as  an 
authorization  to  a  member  country,  after  consultation  with  the  fund,  temporarily 
to  restrict  the  freedom  of  exchange  operations  in  the  affected  currency,  and  in 
determining  the  manner  of  restricting  the  demand  and  rationing  the  limited 
supply  among  its  nationals,  the  member  country  shall  have  complete  jurisdiction. 

VII.    MANAGEMENT    OF    THE    FUND 

1.  The  fund  shall  be  governed  by  a  board  on  which  each  member  will  be  repre- 
sented and  by  an  executive  committee.  The  executive  committee  shall  consist 
of  at  least  nine  members  including  the  representatives  of  the  five  countries  with 
the  largest  quotas. 

2.  The  distiibution  of  voting  power  on  the  board  and  the  executive  committee 
shall  be  closely  related  to  the  quotas. 

3.  Subject  to  II,  2,  and  IV,  5,  all  matters  shall  be  settled  by  a  majority  of  the 
votes. 

4.  The  fund  sha.ll  publish  at  short  intervals  a  statement  of  its  position  showing 
the  extent  of  its  holdings  of  member  currencies  and  of  gold  and  its  transactions 
in  gold. 

VIII.    WITHDRAWAL    FROM    THE    FUND 

1.  A  member  country  may  withdraw  from  the  fund  by  giving  notice  in  writing. 

2.  The  reciprocal  obligations  of  the  fund  and  the  country  are  to  be  liquidated 
within  a  reasonable  time. 

3.  After  a  member  country  has  given  notice  in  writing  of  its  withdrawal  from 
the  fund,  the  fund  may  not  dispose  of  its  holdings  of  the  country's  currency 
except  in  accordance  with  the  arrangements  made  under  2,  above.  After  a 
country  has  given  notice  of  witharawal,  its  use  of  the  resources  of  the  fund  is 
subject  to  the  approval  of  the  fund. 

IX.    OBLIGATIONS    OF    MEMBER    COUNTRIES 

1.  Not  to  buy  gold  at  a  price  which  exceeds  the  agreed  parity  of  its  currency 
by  more  than  a  prescril^ed  margin  and  not  to  sell  gold  at  a  price  which  falls  below 
the  agreed  parity  by  more  than  a  prescribed  margin. 

2.  Not  to  allow  exchange  transactions  in  its  market  in  currencies  of  other 
members  at  rates  outside  a  prescribed  range  based  on  the  agreed  parities. 

3.  Not  to  impose  restrictions  on  payments  for  current  international  trans- 
actions with  other  member  countries  (other  than  those  involving  capital  transfers 
or  in  accordance  with  VI,  above)  or  to  engage  in  any  discriminatory  currency 
arrangements  or  multiple  currency  practices  without  the  approval  of  the  fund. 

X.    TRANSITIONAL    ARRANGEMENTS 

1.  Since  the  fund  is  not  intended  to  provide  facilities  for  relief  or  reconstruction 
or  to  deal  with  international  indebtedness  arising  out  of  the  war,  the  agreement 
of  a  member  country  to  provisions  III,  5  and  IX,  3  above,  shall  not  become 
operative  until  it  is  satisfied  as  to  the  arrangements  at  its  disposal  to  facilitate  the 
settlement  of  the  balance  of  payments  differences  during  the  early  post-war 
transition  period  by  means  which  will  not  unduly  encumber  its  facilities  with 
the  fund. 

2.  During  this  transition  jDeriod  member  countries  may  maintain  and  adapt  to 
changing  circumstances  exchange  regulations  of  the  character  which  have  been  in 
operation  during  the  war,  but  they  shall  undertake  to  withdraw  as  soon  as  possible 
by  progressive  stages  any  restrictions  which  impede  multilateral  clearing  on 
current  account.     In  their  exchange  policy  they  shall  pay  continuous  regard  to 


378       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

the  principles  and  objectives  of  the  fund;  and  they  shall  take  all  possible  measures 
to  develop  commercial  and  financial  relations  with  other  member  countries 
which  will  facilitate  international  payments  and  the  maintenance  of  exchange 
stability. 

3.  The  fund  may  make  representations  to  any  member  that  conditions  are 
favorable  to  withdrawal  of  particular  restrictions  or  for  the  general  abandonment 
of  the  restrictions  inconsistent  with  IX,  3  above.  Not  later  than  3  years  after 
coming  into  force  of  the  fund  any  member  still  retaining  any  restrictions  incon- 
sistent with  IX,  3  shall  consult  with  the  fund  as  to  their  further  retention. 

4.  In  its  relations  with  member  countries,  the  fund  shall  recognize  that  the 
transition  period  is  one  of  change  and  adjustment,  and  in  deciding  on  its  attitude 
to  any  proposals  presented  by  members  it  shall  give  the  member  country  the 
benefit  of  any  reasonable  doubt. 


Summary   of  the   Recommendations   of  the   Technical   Experts   for  the 
Establishment  of  an  International  Monetary  Fund,  April  21,  1944 

The  experts  propose  the  establishment  of  an  international  monetary  fund  as  a 
permanent  institution  for  international  monetary  cooperation.  The  purpose 
would  be  to  promote  exchange  stabilitj^  assure  multilateral  payment  facilities,  help 
lessen  international  disequilibrium  and  give  confidence  to  member  countries.  All 
of  the  United  and  Associated  Nations  would  subscribe  approximately  $8  billion  to 
the  fund  in  the  form  of  gold  and  local  currency  in  accordance  with  an  agreed 
formula.  The  resources  of  the  fund  would  be  available  under  adequate  safeguards 
to  help  member  countries  to  maintain  exchange  stability  while  they  correct  mal- 
adjustments in  their  balance  of  payments. 

Member  countries  would  be  able  to  buy  foreign  exchange  from  the  fund  with 
their  own  currency  to  meet  payments  consistent  with  the  purposes  of  the  fund 
until  the  fund's  total  holdings  of  their  currency  reach  200  percent  of  the  quota. 
Where  a  member  country  is  making  use  of  the  fund  in  a  manner  contrary  to  its  pur- 
poses and  policies,  the  fund  would  give  appropriate  notice  that  it  would  sell  ad- 
ditional exchange  to  the  member  coimtry  only  in  limited  amounts.  Member 
countries  holding  adequate  sold  and  exchange  resources  would  be  expected  to  pay 
for  half  of  their  exchange  purchases  with  gold  and  countries  whose  official  holdings 
of  gold  are  adequate  and  are  increasing  would  be  expected  to  use  half  of  the  in- 
crease to  repurchase  part  of  the  fund's  holdings  of  their  currency. 

When  the  fund's  holdings  of  a  currency  become  scarce,  the  fund  would  issue  a 
report  and  make  recommendations  designed  to  increase  the  supply  of  such  cur- 
rency. In  the  meantime,  after  consultation  with  the  fund,  member  countries 
would  be  authorized  temporarily  to  restrict  freedom  of  exchange  operations  in  the 
scarce  currency. 

The  fund's  resources  could  not  be  used  to  meet  a  large  outflow  of  capital,  al- 
though they  could  be  used  for  capital  transactions  of  reasonable  amount.  A 
member  country  could  also  use  its  own  resources  of  gold  or  foreign  exchange  for 
capital  transactions  that  are  in  accordance  with  the  purposes  of  the  fund. 

The  par  value  of  the  currencies  of  member  countries  would  be  expressed  in  gold 
and  could  be  changed  only  at  the  request  of  member  countries.  The  fund  would 
approve  a  requested  change  in  parity  if  it  were  essential  to  correct  fundamental 
disequilibrium.  After  consultation,  a  member  country  would  be  permitted  to 
change  the  parity  of  its  currency  by  not  more  than  10  percent.  Prompt  consid- 
eration would  be  given  to  other  requests  for  adjustment  of  exchange  rates. 

The  fund  would  be  governed  by  a  board  and  an  executive  committee  represent- 
ing the  members.  Voting  power  would"  be  closely  related  to  quotas.  A  member 
country  would  withdraw  from  the  fund  immediately  by  giving  notice  in  writing. 
Thereafter,  the  reciprocal  obligations  of  the  fund  and  the  country  would  be 
liquidated  within  a  reasonable  time. 

Member  countries  would  not  allow  exchange  transactions  at  rates  outside  a 
prescribed  range  based  on  the  agreed  parities.  They  would  not  be  permitted  to 
impose  restrictions  on  payments  for  current  international  transactions,  or  to  engage 
in  discriminatory  currency  arrangements  or  multiple  currency  practices  without 
the  approval  of  the  fund. 

During  the  period  of  transition  following  the  war,  member  countries  would  be 
permitted  to  retain  their  exchange  controls  with  the  expectation  that  these  would 
gradually  be  relaxed.  Three  years  after  the  establishment  of  the  fund  any  mem- 
ber still  retaining  restrictions  inconsistent  with  these  principles  would  consult  with 
the  fund  as  to  their  retention.     The  transition  period  is  recognized  as  one  of  change

and  adjustment  and  in  deciding  on  requests  presented  by  members  the  fund  would 
give  them  the  benefit  of  any  reasonable  doubt.

1944,  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  relative  to  the  United  Nations  Monetary  and 
Financial  Conference  at  Bretton  Woods 

All  agreements  reached  at  the  United  Nations  Monetary  and  Financial  Con- 
ference at  Bretton  Woods,  N.  H.,  will  be  referred  to  the  participating  govern- 
ments for  adoption  or  rejection,  it  was  made  plain  in  a  letter  of  instructions  from 
President  Roosevelt  to  Secretary  Morgenthau  in  which  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  was  named  to  head  the  American  delegation. 

Definite  proposals  accepted  by  the  delegates  at  the  conference,  which  begins 
next  July  1,  will  in  no  sense  be  binding  on  the  governments  represented,  Mr. 
Roosevelt  said. 

The  President's  letter  set  forth  that  Secretary  Morgenthau,  serving  as  the 
principal  spokesman  for  this  country,  and  working  in  close  consultation  with  the 
Secretary  of  State,  would  be  expected  to  coordinate  the  activities  and  views  of 
the  other  American  delegates. 

The  American  delegation  has  the  responsibilitj',  Mr.  Roosevelt  said,  of  demon- 
strating to  the  world  that  international  post-war  cooperation  is  possible. 

The  text  of  Mr.  Roosevelt's  letter,  dated  June  9,  follows: 

My  Dear  Mr.  Secretary:  I  am  pleased  that  you  will  head  the  American 
delegation  which  will  participate  in  the  United  Nations  Monetary  and 
Financial  Conference  to  be  held  at  Bretton  Woods,  beginning  July  1,  1944. 

It  is  my  hope  that  this  conference  will  formulate  for  presentation  to  the 
participating  governments  definite  proposals  for  an  international  monetary 
fund  and  possibly  a  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development.  In  the 
invitation  which  I  extended  to  these  governments  to  participate  in  the  con- 
ference, I  stated  that  the  agreement  by  the  conference  upon  definite  pro- 
posals will  not  be  binding  either  morally  or  legally  on  the  governments 
represented  but  will  be  referred  to  the  respective  governments  for  adoption 
or  rejection.  You  will,  of  course,  be  governed  accordingly  in  your  discus- 
sions and  negotiations. 

In  formulating  a  definite  proposal  for  an  international  monetary  fund,  both 
you  and  the  other  delegates  will  be  expected  to  adhere  to  the  joint  statement 
of  principles  of  an  international  monetary  fund  announced  April  21,  1944. 
You,  as  head  of  the  delegation,  are  authorized,  however,  after  consultation 
with  the  other  delegates  to  agree  to  modifications  which,  in  your  opinion,  are 
essential  to  the  effectuation  of  an  agreement  and  provided  that  such  modifica- 
tions do  not  fundamentally  alter  the  principles  set  forth  in  the  joint  statement. 

You  will  apply  the  same  principles  in  your  discussions  and  negotiations  with 
respect  to  the  proposed  bank  for  reconstruction  and  development  except  that 
you  will  be  governed  by  the  principles  agreed  upon  by  the  American  Technical 
Committee. 

As  the  head  of  the  American  delegation  of  the  conference,  you  wiU  be  the 
principal  spokesman  for  this  country  and  you  will  be  expected  to  coordinate 
the  activities  and  views  of  the  other  American  delegates.  You  will,  of  course, 
work  in  close  consultation  with  the  Secretary  of  State. 

The  responsibility  which  you  and  the  other  delegates  of  the  American 
delegation  wiU  undertake  is  the  responsibility  for  demonstrating  to  the  world 
that  international  post-war  cooperation  is  possible.     I  am  confident  that  you 
will  do  your  best  to  accomplish  the  purposes  of  the  conference. 
Very  sincerely  yours, 

Franklin    D.    Roosevelt. 


380  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF    THE   TREASURY 

Exhibit  43 

Joint  statement,  June  15,  1944,  ^V  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  and  the  Foreign 
Economic  Administrator  relative  to  the  lend-lease  of  silver  to  India 

The  following  joint  statement  was  issued  today  bj'  Secretary  Morgenthau,  and 
the  Foreign  Economic  Administrator,  Mr.  Crowley: 

The  United  States  Government  has  agreed  to  supply  the  Government  of  In- 
dia under  a  special  lend-lease  agreement  with  100  million  ounces  of  silver  to 
be  used  to  maintain  an  adequate  supply  of  coinage  for  the  large  numbers  of 
United  Nations  forces  there  and  for  India's  expanded  war  production,  and 
to  help  to  keep  prices  stable  in  this  important  United  Nations  supply  base 
and  war  theater. 

The  Government  of  India  has  agreed  to  return  the  silver  to  the  United 
States  after  the  end  of  the  war  on  an  ounce-for-ounce  basis. 

The  silver  bullion  will  he  supplied  lo  India  from  the  large  stocks  of  United 
States  Treasury  free  silver.  The  shipments  of  silver  will  not  impair  in  any 
way  the  supply  of  silver  required  for  domestic  purposes  in  the  United  States. 

Silver  has  been  supplied  under  lend-lease  from  time  to  time  to  a  number 
of  other  countries  for  industrial  and  coinage  purposes  essential  to  the  war. 
The  total  amount  of  silver  shipped  under  lend-lease  to  date  to  all  countries 
is  approximately  4,000  short  tons.

Joint  statements,  August  2  and  17,  1943,  by  the   Treasury  and  War   Departments 
relative  to  the  allied  military  currency  used  in  liberated  Sicily 

Statement,  August  2,  1943 

Joint  statement  by  the  Treasury  Department  and  the  War  Department: 

Allied  expeditionary  forces,  seeking  to  establish  orderly  relationships  with  the 
people  of  liberated  Sicily,  are  introducing  into  its  occupied  areas  an  "Allied  Mili- 
tary Currency,"  speaking  a  "Lira"  language  that  will  be  understood  by  every 
Sicilian  trader  and  consumer. 

It  may  now  be  revealed  that  a  distinctive  currency,  determined  upon  by 
British  and  American  officials  was  made  in  th^  Treasury's  Bureau  of  Engraving  and 
Printing.  It  was  rushed  to  the  scene  of  action  by  huge  transport  planes  and  is 
being  used  as  the  medium  of  exchange  in  that  part  of  Italy  that  we  now  hold. 

A  part  of  its  legend  reads  "Issued  in  Italy." 

At  the  same  time,  it  was  revealed,  a  comparable  series  of  postage  stamps  will  be 
introduced  into  the  areas  under  military  administration. 

This  is  the  first  truly  allied  venture  into  the  field  of  military  monetary  expe- 
dients and  an  undertaking  without  precedent  so  far  as  the  United  States  is  con- 
cerned. The  distinctive  lira  currency  will  be  used  in  the  payment  of  troops  of 
all  the  Allied  Nations  on  Italian  soil,  and  in  payment  by  the  procurement  services 
for  local  supplies. 

Government  officials  said  the  undertaking  is  designed  to  give  the  occupied 
areas  a  currency  in  denominations  and  terms  which  they  know. 

It  provides  an  adequate  circulating  medium  in  sections  where  there  may  be  a 
shortage  of  local  currency  because  of  confiscation  or  destruction  by  retreating 
enemy  forces,  or  from  other  causes. 

It  avoids  complication  of  the  monetary  system  which  use  of  foi-eign  currencies 
might  cause. 

Previously,  the  United  States  forces  in  North  Africa  had  used  a  regular  "back 
home"  currency  with  a  distinctive  seal,  while  the  British  had  used  a  "military 
pound."  Now,  authorities  of  the  Allied  Nations  have  worked  out  this  cooperative 
use  of  a  single  medium  of  exchange. 

The  preparation  of  this  military  ciu-rency  and  postage  in  advance  of  the  inva- 
sion of  Italy  is  itself  an  amazing  chai)ter  in  "the  story  of  the  gigantic  and  minutely 
detailed  planning  that  preceded  the  expedition,  a  story  that  must,  for  the  most 
part,  ren^ain  mitold  until  after  the  war.  From  the  standpoint  of  the  physical 
imdertaking  alone,  there  is  no  precedetit  for  such  a  job.  Presses  of  the  Bureau 
of  Engraving  and  Printing  worked  24  hours  a  day,  not  even  pausing  for  meal 
periods,  for  weeks,  to  have  the  stocks  of  notes  and  stamps  ready  for  the  final, 
revealing  overprinting  when  the  invasion  actually  began. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       381 

The  planning  of  the  job  goes  back  some  four  months,  when  high  officials  of  the 
Treasury,  the  War  and  Navy  Departments,  the  Department  of  State,  and  officials 
of  the  British  Government  laid  the  groundwork  in  a  series  of  extraordinary  con- 
ferences lield  in  utmost  secrecy. 

No  inkUng  of  the  ])roject  ever  was  })ut  in  writing,  no  word  of  it  spoken  over  a 
telephone,  and  no  discussions  of  it  carried  outside  the  conference  rooms. 

Designs  for  the  notes  and  stan)ps  had  to  be  completed  under  similar  conditions 
of  secrecy,  and  stocks  of  disthictive  paper  and  huge  amounts  of  inks  of  various 
colors  accumulated.  In  none  of  this  preliminary  work  was  the  country  for  which 
the  notes  were  intended  ever  identified. 

On  the  basic  designs  vmder  consideration,  where  now  the  words  "Issued  in 
Italy"  appear,  the  words  "United  States"  were  placed  fictitiously,  and  where  the 
"lira"  designation  is  prhited  were  such  unrevealing  terms  as  "dollars"  or  "shillings." 

Basic  printing  of  the  notes  began  early  in  June,  with  the  name  of  the  country 
and  the  currency  designation  still  omitted.  Huge  stocks  of  the  partially  finished 
notes  were  accumulated  against  the  day  when  the  "go"  signal  should  be  given. 

The  invasion  news  was  flashed  to  the  world  on  the  night  of  July  9.  Key 
employees  of  the  Bureau  of  Engraving  and  Printing  stood  by  their  telephones 
throughout  Sunday,  and  continued  at  their  posts  until  the  printing  order  was 
released  by  Army  authorities  actually  on  Tuesday,  July  13.  Huge  presses  immedi- 
ately began  to  roll,  overprinting  the  partially  completed  notes  with  the  identify- 
ing legends. 

By  Saturday,  July  17,  enough  had  been  completed  to  load  a  huge  transport 
plane,  but  transportation  was  not  available  until  Monday,  July  19,  when  two 
planes  carrying  seven  tons  of  the  distinctive  money  took  off.  Other  shipments 
have  followed,  both  of  currency  and  stamps. 

The  currency  introduced  into  Sicily  is  in  eight  denominations  from  one  to 
1,000  lire.  The  smaller  denominations  are  half  the  size  of  United  States  currency, 
and  the  larger  denominations  the  same  size.  It  is  made  by  a  lithograph  process, 
since  the  time  element  and  the  size  of  the  undertaking  did  not  permit  steel 
engraving. 

Except  for  the  "lire"  designation,  all  the  legend  on  the  bills  is  in  English.  The 
"Four  Freedoms,"  Freedom  of  Speech,  Freedom  of  Religion,  Freedom  from  Want, 
and  Freedom  from  Fear,  appear  prominently  on  the  reverse  sides  of  all  the  notes. 
Ornate  designs  in  pantograph,  of  a  neutral  nature,  are  used  in  the  series,  so  that 
it  might  be  adapted  to  the  needs  of  troops  in  further  assaults  upon  Hitler's 
European  fortress  merely  by  overprinting  the  proper  currency  designations  and 
name  of  country  on  the  basic  stock. 

Smaller  notes,  of  one,  two,  five,  and  ten  lire  bear  a  wheat  field  scene  in  brown 
on  the  face,  with  the  denomination  in  the  center.  Blue,  lavender,  green,  and 
black  borders  also  identify  the  respective  denominations.  The  words  "Allied 
Military  Currency"  appear  on  the  upper  margin  of  the  face  and  in  an  ornate  oval 
on  the  reverse  side.  The  face  also  carries  the  legends,  "Series  1943,"  "Issued  in 
Italy,"  and  a  serial  number.  The  Four  Freedoms  appear  in  the  four  corners  of 
the  note  on  the  reverse  side. 

For  notes  of  50,  100,  500,  and  1,000  lire,  borders  and  ornate  design  of  the  front 
are  in  blue,  lavender,  green,  and  black,  respectively,  with  the  background  on  all 
four  notes  a  pale  blue.  The  denomination  appears  in  each  of  the  four  corners  on 
the  face,  and  in  an  ornate  shield  in  the  center.  The  words  "Issued  in  Italy" 
appear  in  ovals  at  each  end,  and  the  words  "Allied  Military  Currency"  at  the 
bottom  of  the  note.  The  face  also  carries  the  designation  "Series  1943,"  and 
serial  numbers. 

The  reverse  side  of  these  larger  notes  is  a  subdued  brown,  with  "Allied  Military 
Currency"  appearing  in  a  center  shield,  and  the  Four  Freedoms  in  ovals  at  either 
side. 

The  allied  military  postage  stamps  are  in  denominations  of  15,  25,  30,  50,  and 
60  centesimi,  and  in  1,  2,  5,  and  10  lire.  They  are  all  of  the  same  design,  distin- 
guished by  colors  of  the  usual  United  States  postage  series.  They  bear  a  panto- 
graph background,  with  white  lettering,  and  the  denomination  in  the  center  of 
the  stamp,  are  perforated,  and  on  a  gummed  paper.  Both  the  stamp  design  and 
the  overprint  are  put  on  in  one  operation  on  a  two-color  press. 


382  REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 

Statement,  August  17,  1943 

The  Treasury  and  War  Departments  today  made  public  further  details  concern- 
ing the  special  currencies  employed  in  the  Sicilian  operations: 

Financial  and  military  plans  are  so  closely  interrelated  in  modern  warfare  that 
it  is  necessary,  for  reasons  of  military  security,  to  maintain  secrecy  regarding 
financial  arrangements  incident  to  military  operations  until  the  financial  as  well  as 
strictly  military  aspects  of  the  initial  stages  of  the  operation  have  unfolded. 
However,  military  secrecy  ceases  to  exist  regarding  the  financial  measures  effective 
for  an  operation  when  the  relative  decrees  of  the  military  commander  are  issued  in 
the  liberated  area.  Accordingly,  the  following  information  can  now  be  released 
supplementing  the  story  previously  made  public  regarding  the  printing  of  Allied 
military  currency  by  the  Bureau  of  Engraving  and  Printing. 

Measures  to  meet  the  currency  problems  incident  to  the  Sicilian  operation  were 
taken  jointly  by  the  United  States  and  British  military  authorities  and  insofar  as 
American  interests  are  concerned,  under  the  guidance  of  and  in  consultation  with 
the  United  States  Treasury. 

A  distinction  is  to  be  drawn  between  the  two  kinds  of  currencies,  namely, 
"spearhead"  and  "occupation,"  employed  by  the  United  States  forces  in  these 
military  operations.  The  "spearhead"  currency  was  the  "yellow  seal"  dollar 
which  is  a  regular  silver  certificate  of  the  United  States  Government,  the  yellow 
seal  being  used  to  distinguish  it  from  ordinary  United  States  currency.  This 
distinctive  mark  was  adopted  partly  for  security  reasons  to  permit  the  isolation  of 
the  currency  if  it  fell  into  enemy  hands,  partly  to  prevent  the  influx  into  the  area  of 
dollar  currency  already  in  the  hands  of  the  enemy,  and  partly  to  facilitate  its 
entry  into  the  United  States  by  freeing  it  from  present  restrictions  on  ordinary 
United  States  currency.  The  yellow  seal  was  first  used  bj'^  the  United  States 
military  forces  in  North  Africa  and  was  again  used  as  a  spearhead  currency  in 
Sicily. 

In  connection  with  the  use  of  the  yellow  seal  dollar  by  the  United  States  forces,  it 
is  of  interest  to  note  that  concurrently  the  British  forces  used  the  British  military 
authority  pound  note.  The  B.  M.  A.  note  is  a  special  currency  and  not  the  regu- 
lar British  pound  note.  The  same  exchange  rate  for  conversion  purposes  was 
established  in  Sicily  as  in  North  Africa  between  the  B.  M.  A.  note  and  the  yellow 
seal  dollar — one  B.  M.  A.  pound  equals  four  United  States  yellow  seal  dollars. 

The  occupation  currency  employed  is  the  Allied  military  lira  which  was  de- 
scribed in  a  previous  joint  press  release  by  the  Treasury  and  War  Departments. 
This  currency  is  being  used  jointly  in  the  Sicilian  operation  by  the  Allied  military 
forces  to  supplement  supplies  of  local  currency  when  and  if  necessary  in  order  to 
meet  the  requirements  of  military  operations.  For  obvious  reasons  it  was  desir- 
able that  the  Allied  forces  should  not  continue  to  use  pound  and  dollar  currencies 
longer  than  was  necessary  and  should  move  into  currency  denominated  in  terms 
of  local  units  as  quickly  as  the  military  situation  would  allow.  It  is  not  intended 
nor  desired  to  replace  the  local  currency  with  the  Allied  miUtary  lira  currency 
unless  absolutely  necessary  from  a  military  standpoint,  but  rather  to  use  the 
Allied  military  lira  to  supplement  the  supply  of  local  currency. 

When  the  United  States  Army  obtains  Allied  military  lire  for  expenditures  in 
Sicily  for  pay  of  troops,  supplies,  and  other  expenditures  that  would  normally  be 
charged  to  its  appropriation,  it  will  charge  the  relevant  War  Department  appro- 
priation for  the  dollar  equivalent  of  such  expenditure.  The  decreed  rate  of 
exchange  is  100  lire  to  the  dollar.  This  procedure,  it  was  pointed  out,  marks  no 
change  in  the  customary  control  by  the  Congress  over  the  size  and  nature  of 
Army  appropriations.  Congress  retains  its  jurisdiction  over  such  army  expendi- 
tures. The  British  military  forces  are  following  a  parallel  procedure  with  a 
decreed  rate  of  400  lire  to  the  British  pound.  In  all  cases  complete  records  are 
being  kept  and  a  detailed  accounting  procedure  has  been  set  up  in  connection  with 
the  issuance  and  use  of  this  currency.  These  complete  records  will  also  facilitate 
the  adjustment  of  financial  matters  growing  out  of  the  military  operations  of  the 
Allied  forces  in  the  occupied  area. 

The  Allied  military  lira  has  been  made  legal  tender  in  Sicily  and  is  interchange- 
able at  par  with  local  lira  currency.  It  will  be  in  every  respect  as  acceptable  as  a 
medium  of  exchange  as  the  local  lira  currency,  both  to  the  men  of  our  fighting 
forces  and  to  the  local  population.  Insofar  as  our  troops  are  concerned,  arrange- 
ments have  already  been  made  so  that  they  may  remit  all  or  any  portion  of  their 
pay  which  they  receive  in  lire  to  the  United  States  against  instant  payment  here 
in  dollars.  United  States  soldiers  leaving  the  area  may  exchange  lira  currency 
held  by  them  for  dollar  currency  at  the  decreed  rate  of  exchange. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       383 

On  the  other  hand,  for  obvious  reasons,  War  Department  appropriations  will 
not  be  charged  for  expenditures  in  Sicily  by  the  Allied  Military  Government  for 
local  governmental  operations  whether  financed  from  local  taxes  or  revenue  or 
through  the  use  of  Allied  military  currency.  Thus,  for  example,  the  Allied 
Military  Government  will  not  charge  Army  appropriations  in  connection  with 
the  maintenance  of  public  schools,  water  systems,  salaries  of  local  officials,  and  the 
like. 

Officials  emphasized  the  essential  distinction  between  the  regular  issuance  of 
currency  within  the  United  States  and  the  issuance  of  a  special  currency  by  the 
military  authorities  within  an  area  under  military  occupation  such  as  Sicily. 
W  hile  the  former  is  governed  by  the  Constitution  and  the  statutes  of  the  United 
States,  the  rules  governing  the  latter  are  those  of  the  law  of  nations  as  established 
by  international  agreement  and  the  usage  of  the  world.  Under  international  law, 
the  Hague  Conventions  and  the  decisions  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United 
States,  the  military  commander  in  areas  occupied  by  the  forces  under  his  command 
has  all  the  powers  necessary  for  the  carrying  out  of  governmental  functions. 

These  powers  include  the  right  to  provide  for  the  currency  needs  of  the  area 
occupied.  In  fact,  it  is  a  fundamental  principle  of  international  law  that  an 
occupying  authority  has,  in  addition  to  its  powers,  certain  obligations  to  the 
inhabitants  of  the  territory  under  its  control.  It  must  take  whatever  steps  are 
necessary  to  secure  public  order.  The  latter  cannot  be  maintained  unless  the 
continued  operation  of  local  trade  and  commerce  is  protected.  This  protection 
includes  the  establishment  and  maintenance  of  an.  adequate  and  effective  circu- 
lating medium. 

The  Allied  forces  must  be  in  a  position  to  meet  a  variety  of  conditions  which 
they  may  find  in  areas  occupied  by  them.  The  enemy  might,  for  example,  adopt 
a  "scorched  earth"  policy  which,  on  the  monetary  side,  may  evidence  itself  in  the 
withdrawal  or  destruction  of  currency  stocks  and  the  resulting  depletion  of  the 
circulating  medium  of  exchange  of  the  area.  On  the  other  hand,  the  enemy  might 
in  its  efforts  to  cause  maximum  difficulties  to  the  occupying  forces,  flood  the  area 
to  be  occupied  with  local  currency  to  such  a  point  that  it  becomes  practically 
worthless  as  a  satisfactory  medium  of  exchange;  and  may  even  resort  to  the  use  of 
counterfeit  local  currency. 

Financial  problems  will  vary  in  different  areas  freed  by  the  forces  of  the  United 
Nations.  Although  the  basic  principles  underlying  the  authority  of  the  miUtary 
commander  remain  unchanged,  the  details  of  procedure  must  be  adapted  to  the 
circumstances  found  to  exist  in  liberated  areas. 

It  should  be  noted  that  in  contrast  with  Axis  procedure,  which  is  governed  by  a 
policy  of  exploitation  or  of  outright  destruction  of  the  existing  economy  of  a  con- 
quered area.  Allied  military  policy  and  procedure  is  governed  by  a  spirit  of  libera- 
tion and  a  policy  of  rehabilitation  and  fair  dealing  with  the  liberated  peoples. 


Exhibit  45 


Joint  statement,  February  9,  1944,  ^V  the  Treasury,  War,  and  Navy  Departments 
relative  to  the  special  Hawaiian  series  of  United  States  currency 

The  Treasury,  War,  and  Navy  Departments  tonight  issued  the  following 
joint  statement: 

The  American  marines,  sailors,  and  soldiers  who  have  been  driving  out  the 
Japanese  from  their  Central  Pacific  strongholds  have  brought  with  them  for  their 
use  and  for  the  use  of  the  inhabitants  of  these  islands  the  "Hawaiian  dollar,"  1.  e., 
the  special  Hawaiian  series  of  United  States  currency. 

The  use  of  this  Hawaiian  currency  emphasizes  the  marked  change  which  has 
been  brought  about  in  the  Central  Pacific  theater  of  operations  during  the  last 
year.  The  introduction  of  the  special  "Hawaiian  dollar"  in  July  1942  was  taken 
as  a  step  toward  the  complete  economic  defense  of  Hawaii,  while  today  the 
"Hawaiian  dollar"  is  being  used  to  facilitate  the  offensive  against  the  Japanese- 
held  islands  thousands  of  miles  from  Hawaii  in  the  direction  of  Tokyo. 

When  the  "Hawaiian  dollar"  was  introduced,  the  Japanese  had  been  recently 
defeated  in  the  battle  of  Midway  but  had  just  landed  forces  on  the  Island  of 
Kiska  and  responsible  American  naval  and  military  leaders  were  pointing  out 
that  a  threat  to  Hawaii  still  existed.  It  was  against  this  background  that 
measures  were  taken  by  the  United  States  Treasury  for  the  withdrawaLpffall 
regular  United  States  currency  in  circulation  in  the  Territory  of  Hawaii  and  its 
replacement  by  a  new  series  of  United  States  currency.     This  new  currency 


384       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

consists  of  United  States  silver  certificates  and  Federal  Reserve  notes  bearing  the 
distinctive  overprint  "Hawaii"  in  bold  open-faced  type  on  each  end  of  the  face 
of  the  note  and  the  word  "Hawaii'  in  large  open-faced  type  across  the  reverse 
side  of  the  note.  After  August  15,  1942,  no  currency  other  than  United  States 
currency,  Hawaiian  series,  could  be  held  or  used  in  Hawaii  without  a  license  from 
the  Governor  of  the  Territory  of  Hawaii.  On  the  other  hand,  in  order  to  effectuate 
the  purposes  of  its  issuance,  the  United  States  currency,  Hawaiian  series,  was 
kept  from  circulating  on  the  mainland  of  the  United  States  by  virtue  of  a  pro- 
hibition on  its  export  from  Hawaii. 

The  distinctive  characteristics  of  the  "Hawaiian  dollar"  are  of  equal  value  for 
offensive  purposes  as  well  as  defensive.  It  is  in  the  interests  of  our  Government 
to  be  able  to  identify  easily  the  currency  which  is  being  used  in  areas  of  combat, 
in  order  to  facilitate  the  isolation  of  this  particular  currency  if  it  should  fall  into 
enemy  hands. 

It  would  have  been  possible,  of  course,  to  achieve  practically  all  of  the  ad- 
vantages of  the  use  of  the  "Hawaiian  dollar"  by  the  use  of  the  yellow  seal  cur- 
rency used  in  North  Africa,  Sicily,  and  Italy.  It  was  felt,  however,  that  since 
these  Central  Pacific  islands  have  closer  direct  military  and  financial  relations 
with  Hawaii  than  with  the  mainland  and  since  the  "Hawaiian  dollar"  has  all  the 
advantages  of  the  yellow  seal  currency,  it  was  preferable  to  use  the  "Hawaiian 
dollar"  in  the  Central  Pacific  operations. 

The  rate  of  exchange  that  has  been  established  for  these  liberated  islands  of  the 
Central  Pacific  is  20  Japanese  military  yen  to  one  "Hawaiian  dollar."  This  rate 
was  determined  in  the  light  of  present  prevailing  circumstances  in  these  small 
island  groups  and  will  in  no  way  be  considered  a  precedent  for  the  rates  that  may 
be  applied  to  other  areas  now  occupied  by  the  Japanese. 


TAXATION  DEVELOPMENTS 

Exhibit  46 

Siaiement  of  Secretanj  Morgenihau  before  the  Hovse  Ways  and  Means  Committee, 
October  4,  194S,  in  support  of  the  Treasury's  program  for  additional  revenue 

I  want  to  present  to  you  today  the  administration's  suggested  program  for 
raising  additional  taxes  to  help  pay  for  the  war.  But  more  than  that,  I  want  to 
explain  why  we  are  presenting  this  program.  You  are  entitled  to  know  not  only 
the  decisions  we  have  made,  but  our  reasons  for  making  those  decisions. 

Because  of  the  huge  cost  of  the  war,  it  is  necessary  for  us  to  ask  for  a  great  deal 
of  money.  We  need  it,  and  the  time  to  get  it  is  now,  when  the  national  income  is 
the  highest  it  has  ever  been. 

The  budget  for  the  fiscal  year  1944  calls  for  lOG  billions  in  expenditures.  And 
while  it  may  be  possible,  and  I  hope  it  is,  to  curtail  some  governmental  expendi- 
tures, even  that  will  not  lessen  our  need  for  getting  at  this  tim.e  all  that  the 
American  people  can  possibly  give  us  in  additional  taxes. 

The  additional  taxes  for  which  we  are  going  to  ask  will  make  it  necessary  for 
people  to  take  in  their  belts- — but  the  cold  hard  facts  of  fiscal  necessity  demand  it. 
We  know  by  now  that  our  willingness  to  s])eiid  the  necessary  funds,  no  matter  how 
large,  has  had  aiid  will  continue  to  have'a'definiie  effect"on''the''lives  of  our  men  in 
battle.  The  superior  fighting  equipment  which  we  have  produced  and  bought  has 
been  expensive,  but  it  will  shorten  the  war  and  will  save  the  lives  of  thousands  of 
American  fighting  men. 

The  money  that  is  expended  to  help  our  allies  keep  the  enemy  engaged  on  dozens 
of  fronts  all  over  the  world  also  saves  untold  lives  and  helps  shorten  the  war. 

These  things — equipment,  medical  supplies,  lend-lease,  and  all  the  rest — have 
helped  to  build  the  war  cost  to  its  present  huge  proi^ortions,  but  I  am  sure  you  will 
agree,  and  I  am  sure  the  American  people  agree,  that  it  is  worth  while. 

We  must  raise  a  great  deal  of  additional  money  for  financing  the  war  and  com- 
bating inflation,  and  yet  in  doing  it  we  cainiot  overlook  the  fact  that  there  is  a 
point  beyond  whic-h  some  people  of  moderate'means  cainiot  pay  higher  taxes  of  any 
sort  and  still  keep  a  family  going.  There  is  a  point  beyond  which  they  cannot 
meet  the  tax  bills  and  still  maintain  a  standard  of  living  which  will  permit  them  to 
continue  to  help  in  the  effective  prosecution  of  the  war. 

I  am  telling  you  this  to  emphasize  the  fact  that  the  Treasury  Dejiartment  has 
not  arbitrarily  set  down  a  figure  as  the  amount  to  be  raised,  without  regard  to  the 
problems  which  exist,  and  which  must  be  met.  We  have,  over  the  past  several 
months,  asked  the  help  of  every  executive  department  of  Government  having  any 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       385 

relationship  to  taxes,  including  the  Army  and  the  Navy.  And  I  think  we  have 
examined  every  conceivable  plan  to  raise  additional  taxes. 

We  have  measured  these  plans  against — 

First,  the  ability  of  the  plan  to  raise  money,  and  its  eflfect  on  the  inflation 
problem; 

Second,  the  degree  to  which  it  might  interfere  with  war  production; 

Third,  the  degree  of  hardship  the  plan  places  upon  people  with  fixed  incomes 
and  with  fixed  obligations,  and  upon  people  with  inadequate  incomes;  and 

Fourth,  its  practicability  and  cost  from  the  standpoint  of  its  administration. 
No  plan  is  good  if  it  is  impractical  for  the  Government  to  handle,  or  if  it  unduly 
tries  the  patience  of  the  taxpayer  who  is  already  burdened  with  too  much  and 
too  complicated  paper  work. 

One  of  our  chief  considerations  in  developing  a  tax  program  has  been  the 
drawing  off  of  what  is  called  "excess  spending  money."  It  has  been  estimated 
that  income  payments  to  individuals  will  amount  to  152  billion  dollars  in  the 
fiscal  year  of  1944.  The  amount  of  goods  and  services  available  can  absorb  only 
about  89  billion  of  this  152  billion,  leaving  63  billion.  Personal  taxes  will  reduce 
this  figure  by  21  billion  at  the  present  rate,  leaving  a  total  of  about  42  billion 
dollars.  Of  this  42  billion  dollars  we  expect  to  draw  off  a  substantial  amount 
in  the  sale  of  war  bonds  to  individuals.  During  the  past  12  months — that  is  to 
say,  through  the  three  drives  which  we  have  had,  and  the  regular  bond  sales 
which  go  on  month  after  month — we  have  absorbed  nearly  17  billion  dollars  of 
this  "excess  spending  money"  from  individuals. 

There  are  of  course  other  forms  of  noninflationary  savings,  such  as  life  insur- 
ance, which  also  must  be  subtracted  from  the  42  billion  potentially  dangerous 
dollars. 

But  even  taking  into  consideration  these  savings  along  with  war  bonds,  a 
substantial  amount  of  excess  income  will  still  be  left.  There  will  be  available 
spending  money  far  in  excess  of  the  limited  supply  of  goods  available,  and  with 
this  excess  the  danger  of  inflation  mounts. 

As  you  know,  the  seeds  of  inflation  have  been  with  us  since  the  start  of  the  war 
in  Europe,  and  the  Government  has  taken  numerous  measures  to  cope  with  the 
situation.  Partially  because  the  threat  of  inflation  seemed  to  many  to  be  far 
away,  and  partially  because  of  a  lack  of  general  understanding  of  the  economic 
factors  involved  in  inflation,  not  enough  has  been  done. 

In  the  Treasury  we  have  taken  several  steps  within  our  province  to  help  com- 
bat inflation.  We  have  consistently  recommended  higher  taxes,  and  have 
succeeded  in  getting  the  people  of  the  Nation  to  invest  many  billions  in  war 
bonds  and  tax  notes. 

On  March  19,  1941,  we  set  up  the  Defense  Savings  Staff  in  the  Treasury  for 
the  purpose  of  promoting  the  sale  of  defense  savings  bonds  to  the  general  public. 
On  May  1  we  introduced  the  Series  E,  F,  and  G  savings  bonds  in  an  effort  to 
absorb  individual  savings  and  to  forestall  the  potentially  inflationary  effects  of 
the  expenditure  of  these  funds  for  consumers'  goods.  Altogether,  the  American 
people  have  invested  21  billions  net  in  these  bonds. 

On  April  24,  1941,  I  appeared  before  the  Committee  on  Ways  and  Means  to 
discuss  the  need  of  raising  3.5  billions  additional  revenue,  one  of  the  objectives 
of  which  was  "to  prevent  a  general  rise  in  prices  by  keeping  the  total  volume  of 
monetary  purchasing  power  from  outrunning  production." 

On  August  1,  1941,  we  placed  on  sale  tax  anticipation  notes,  designed  to  enable 
the  taxpayer  to  save  systematically  for  his  tax  bill,  and  at  the  same  time  to 
absorb  purchasing  power  which  might  have  been  spent  for  consumers'  goods. 

On  December  27,  1941,  we  implemented  the  payroll  savings  plan  for  the  regular 
and  systematic  sale  of  United  States  savings  bonds  to  wage  earners.  At  the 
present  time  27  million  persons  are  deducting  a  total  of  420  million  dollars  a  month. 

On  March  3,  1942,  I  appeared  before  this  committee  and  asked  for  an  increase 
in  revenue  of  7.6  billion  dollars.  I  stated  that  the  chief  objective  of  the  new 
Revenue  Act  was  to  help  check  inflation,  and  iDointed  out  that  "nothing  in  the 
economic  field  can  interfere  with  the  war  effort  as  much  as  an  uncontrolled  rise 
in  prices,  and  an  inflationary  price  rise  is  a  source  of  grave  social  injustice." 

In  the  3  years — 1940,  1941,  1942 — I  recommended  to  Congress  tax  increases, 
totaling  approximately  20  billion  dollars,  and  I  am  glad  to  say  that  Congress 
enacted  most  of  these  increases. 

These  tax  increases  and  the  money  that  we  have  realized  through  the  sale  of 
bonds  have  been  substantially  helpful,  in  connection  with  other  governmental 
actions  and  restrictions,  in  controlling  inflation  to  the  extent  to  which  it  has  thus 
far  been  controlled. 

613185—45 26 


386       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

From  a  statistical  standpoint,  we  know  where  the  bulk  of  the  new  money  lies, 
and  where,  therefore,  lies  also  the  greatest  danger  of  inflationary  pressure. 

Today,  four-fifths  of  all  the  income  of  the  Nation  is  going  to  people  earning  less 
than  $5,000  a  year.  And  except  for  the  people  earning  no  more  than  a  bare 
subsistence  wage,  this  group  presents  the  greatest  potential  danger  from  the 
inflationarj'  standpoint.  The  weight  of  the  inflationary  money  in  the  hands  of 
this  group  can  cause  undue  price  rises,  and  can  completely  upset  our  entire 
economic  sj'stem,  unless  absorbed  in  sufficient  quantity. 

Having  this  in  mind,  as  well  as  the  need  for  additional  funds  to  finance  this 
most  expensive  war,  the  Treasury  set  a  goal  earlier  this  year  of  12  billion  dollars 
as  the  amount  of  additional  revenue  which  should  be  raised  by  new  taxation. 

Since  this  goal  was  set  we  have  gone  outside  the  Treasury  offices,  outside  of 
Washington.  We  knew  that  12  billion  dollars,  when  translated  into  individual 
cases,  was  a  great  deal  of  money;  and,  as  we  progressed  in  our  investigations,  we 
became  more  and  more  aware  of  the  problems  we  would  have  in  levying  so  large 
an  additional  tax  on  anything  like  an  equital^le  basis. 

While  it  is  perfectly  obvious  that  the  economic  condition  of  the  country  indicates 
a  great  deal  of  room  for  additional  taxation,  income  is  not  distributed  in  such  a 
way  that  it  can  equitably  be  drawn  off  in  huge  quantities  sti'aight  across  any 
given  income  level. 

We  found  this  out  very  definitely  when  we  made  actual  observations  in  the  field. 
When  we  talked  to  actual  people — people  who  pay  rent,  feed  their  families,  and 
meet  the  extra  bills  which  wartime  living  saddles  upon  them — we  found  that  some 
had  ability  to  pay  much  heavier  taxes,  but  that  others  earning  the  same  amount 
of  money  could  not  l^ear  as  heavy  a  burden. 

From  our  surveys,  and  from  checking  closely  the  response  of  working  people  and 
farmers  and  other  groups  in  the  bond  drives,  we  further  found  that  this  inequality 
in  ability  to  pay  taxes  is  being  compensated  for  in  a  large  measure  by  the  volun- 
tary purchase  of  bonds  among  people  who  have  more  than  their  usual  amount  of 
money  to  spend.  We  found,  for  example,  that  among  war  workers  in  industries 
where  income  has  been  substantially  increased,  the  purchase  of  bonds  is  high. 
In  most  factories  where  production  is  especially  high,  and  where  wages  and  over- 
time are  accordingly  high,  the  sale  of  bonds  is  similarly  high.  For  example,  in  the 
former  automobile  plants,  now  converted  to  war  production,  87.6  percent  of  all  the 
workers  are  regularly  buying  bonds  on  payroll  deduction  plans,  and  those  who  are 
enrolled  are  regularly  investing  10.3  percent  of  their  wages.  During  the  Third  War 
Loan  drive  the  workers  in  representative  automobile  plants  in  Detroit  invested  up- 
ward of  an  average  of  $100  per  man  in  extra  war  bonds.  They  did  this  of  their  own 
free  will,  without  compulsion  by  the  Government. 

This  pattern  holds  true  throughout  the  war  production  industries.  Seventy- 
five  percent  of  all  the  shipbuilders  are  on  the  payroll  deduction  plan,  and  are  in- 
vesting 11.3  percent  of  their  wages.'  Employees  in  the  construction  industry  who 
are  on  the  plan  are  deducting  10.4  percent  of  their  pay;  and — to  take  a  different 
kind  of  an  industr.v — 85  percent  of  the  employees  of  the  telephone  and  telegraph 
industry  are  subscribing  9.3  percent  of  their  pay. 

The  great  majority  of  the  American  people  are  ready  and  anxious  to  do  their 
part  to  cooperate  in  every  way  that  will  help  win  the  war  in  the  shortest  possible 
time.    I  have  seen  this  spirit  at  work  in  our  war  loan  drives. 

I  am  sure  that  we  can  count  on  them  as  individuals  to  see  us  successfully  through 
our  fight  against  inflation  if  we  will  only  tell  them  what  to  do — clearly  and  de- 
cisively. Tell  them  how  they  can  help.  We  cannot  legislate  cooperation,  and  be- 
yond a  certain  point  I  think  we  must  tread  lightly. 

The  amount  of  money  we  can  take  by  tax  legislation  cannot  possibly  absorb 
enough  of  our  dangerous  dollars,  but  we  must  ask  the  people,  so  that  they  may 
protect  themselves  from  the  injustice  of  inflationary  price  rises,  to  do  aU  they 
possibly  can.  And  while  I  think  we  should  not  burden  the  American  taxpayers  at 
this  time  with  additional  taxes  in  so  great  an  amount  as  12  billion  dollars,  I  do 
believe  that  they  can  pay,  and  will,  an  additional  total  of  10.5  billions. 

At  first  glance,  it  may  seem  that  a  billion  and  a  half  less  than  our  original  figure 
is  not  a  substantial  reduction;  but  all  of  the  reduction  is  in  the  individual  income 
tax  and  it  amounts  to  a  great  deal  in  terms  of  a  reduced  burden  on  any  given  in- 
dividual or  family. 

The  proposed  schedule  calls  for  6.5  billions  in  additional  individual  income  taxes. 

We  realize  that  these  additional  taxes,  even  in  the  reduced  amount  of  6.5  billions, 
will  impose  a  heavy  burden  on  some  taxpayers.  You  may  therefore  wish  to  con- 
sider some  device  for  lessening  the  ultimate  impact  of  the  increased  tax  on  the 
lower  income  groups. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       387 

One  such  device  which  we  have  considered,  and  wliich  I  pass  along  to  you  for 
your  consideration,  is  provision  for  a  post-war  refund  of  a  part  of  the  tax. 

Such  a  refund  should  benefit  principally  the  lower  income  groups  and  might  be 
in  the  range  of  between  2  and  3.5  billions  of  the  6.5  billion  tax.  If  such  a  device 
should  be  used,  it  is  suggested  that  the  taxpayer  be  permitted  to  purchase  with  his 
refund  credit  a  fuUy  paid-up  life  insurance  policy.  There  should  also  be  a  special 
provision  permitting  the  immediate  use  for  tax  payment  of  any  post-war  credit  in 
cases  where  the  taxpayer's  income  has  not  increased  substantially. 

As  a  result  of  our  investigations  among  average  Americans,  there  is  an  impor- 
tant general  recommendation  that  I  want  to  make.  It  is  vitally  important  that 
every  possible  step  be  taken  to  reduce  the  complications  in  our  tax  laws  which 
make  it  necessary  for  the  taxpayer  to  fill  out  complex  and  difficult  tax  forms. 

Many  of  the  complications  which  confuse  and  irritate  the  taxpayer  arise  out  of 
the  fact  that  under  the  present  law  there  are  two  income  taxes.  We  have  the 
regular  income  tax.  We  also  have  the  Victory  tax,  which  was  passed  last  year, 
and  became  aiDplicable'  to  this  year's  income. 

The  Victory  tax  introduces  a  new  and  different  income  computation  which  does 
not  take  account  of  deductions  for  interest  paid,  taxes  paid,  contributions  to 
charity,  or  other  nonbusiness  expenses.  It  has  a  different  scheme  of  exemptions, 
with  an  exemption  of  $624  for  each  individual  taxpayer.  This  exemption  is  re- 
duced in  the  case  of  a  married  couple  where  one  spouse  has  less  than  $624  of 
income.  No  exemption  is  allowed  for  dependents.  The  Victory  tax  has  a  com- 
plicated post-war  credit  amounting  to  25  percent  of  the  tax  for  single  persons, 
with  a  limit  of  $500,  40  percent  of  the  tax  for  married  couples  with  a  limit  of 
$1,000,  and  an  additional  2  percent  for  each  dependent  with  a  limit  of  $100. 

A  further  complication  is  the  provision  for  taking  this  credit  currently  to  the 
extent  of  debt  repayment,  life  insurance  premiums,  or  war  bond  purchases — and 
this  provision  not  only  increases  complexity,  but  for  all  practical  purposes  wipes 
out  the  post-war  character  of  the  credit. 

Because  of  these  variations  from  the  income  tax,  the  Viccory  tax  confuses  the 
taxpayers  and  makes  impossible  any  real  simplification  of  tax  forms.  It  has  wiped 
out  simplifications  previously  possible  in  income  tax  forms.  For  example,  the 
complete  tax  computation  table  which  we  were  able  to  provide  for  taxpayers  in 
the  1941  and  1942  returns  has  become  impossible  this  year  because  of  the  Victory 
tax. 

I,  therefore,  recommend  the  repeal  of  the  Victory  tax  as  the  first  and  most 
important  single  step  toward  tax  simplification. 

But  there  are  additional  gains  to  be  made  by  repealing  this  tax  now.  Such  a 
step  would  improve  the  equity  of  the  income  tax  system  in  important  respects. 
The  Victory  tax  failed  to  take  due  account  of  family  status.  It  loaded  an  addi- 
tional tax  on  all  those  earning  an  income  above  $624  regardless  of  the  size  of  their 
families. 

While  it  does  not  seem  desirable  simply  to  exempt  wholly  from  taxation  all 
those  now  liable  for  Victory  tax,  but  not  within  present  income  tax  brackets, 
equity  will  be  promoted  by  repealing  the  Victory  tax  and  lowering  present  income 
tax  e.xemptions.  By  lowering  them  to  $1,100  for  married  persons  and  $300  for 
dependents,  we  would  retain,  with  about  the  same  tax  burden,  those  taxpayers 
now  liable  only  for  Victory  tax,  who  are  best  able  to  bear  the  burden  of  some 
income  tax.  At  the  same  time  we  would  relieve  9,000,000  hard-pressed  families 
from  tax  on  their  incomes. 

Repeal  would  not,  of  course,  leave  these  citizens  untaxed.  They  would  con- 
tinue to  pay  heavy  indirect  taxes,  and  most  of  them  under  existing  law  will  have 
their  social  security  taxes  doubled  next  year. 

In  the  interest  of  simplification,  there  is  another  recommendation  I  want  to 
make  again,  as  I  did  last  year.     I  urge  the  repeal  of  the  earned-income  credit. 

The  elimination  of  the  earned-income  credit  would  make  possible  the  achieve- 
ment of  a  further  important  simplification  through  the  consolidation  of  the  normal 
tax  and  the  surtax  into  one  tax  schedule. 

Under  present  law  all  net  income  ud  to  $3,000  is  assumed  to  be  earned  income, 
whether  or  not  it  is  actually  earned.  This  failure  to  distinguish  between  different 
sources  of  income  below  $3,000  deprives  the  earned-income  credit  of  its  chief 
significance.  Yet  it  complicates  both  the  returns  and  the  computation  of  the 
income  tax.  By  eliminating  this  misnamed  earned-income  credit,  we  can  gain 
simplification  without  discriminating  against  the  salaried  people  and  wage  earners 
with  modest  incomes. 

A  desirable  change  which  would  further  simplify  filing  and  collection  procedure 
would  be  the  withholding  of  taxes  from  wages  and  salaries  af  graduated  rates. 


388       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Graduated  withholding  could  keep  millions  more  of  our  taxpayers  on  a  strictly 
current,  paid-up  basis,  by  covering  the  full  liability  in  all  brackets  instead  of  just 
the  first  bracket,  as  at  present.  This  would  materially  reduce  the  number  of 
persons  required  to  file  troublesom.e  declarations  of  estimated  tax.  Recent 
discussions  with  employers  indicate  that  they  believe  withholding  at  graduated 
rates  to  be  desirable  and  entirely  feasible. 

Let  me  tell  you  now  about  our  specific  suggestions  for  the  tax  program. 

I  am  suggesting  a  program  to  iilcrease  Federal  revenue  collections  by  approxi- 
mately 10.5  billion  dollars  for  a  full  year  of  operation. 

I  recommend  that  those  taxes  be  raised  through  an  increase  in  estate  and  gift 
taxes,  corporation  taxes,  selected  excise  taxes,  and  individual  income  taxes. 

Estate  and  Gift  Taxes 

Estate  taxes  have  been  a  part  of  our  Federal  tax  structure  since  1916,  but  the 
total  contribution  has  been  unduly  small.  In  this  period  ahead  when  great  addi- 
tional revenue  is  necessary,  estate  taxpayers  should  contribute  as  heavily  as 
possible  to  the  cost  of  the  war  along  with  other  groups  of  taxpayers.  I  am  sug- 
gesting that  the  exemption  for  estate  taxes  be  reduced  from  $60,000  to  $40,000; 
that  estate  and  gift  tax  rates  be  increased  throughout  the  scale.  By  so  doing,  we 
can  raise  an  additional  400  million  dollars  on  a  full  A'ear's  basis. 

CoRroRATioN  Taxes 

It  is  recommended  that  corporation  taxes  be  increased.  Despite  heavy  in- 
creases in  taxes,  net  corporation  income  after  taxes  has  risen  greatly  since  1939. 
After  paying  dividends,  corporations  (including  both  profitable  and  deficit 
corporations)  will  have  added  to  their  capital  out  of  earnings  an  estimated  11  or  12 
billion  dollars  during  the  3  years  of  1941,  1942,  and  1943.  We  therefore  recom- 
mend that  corporation  taxes  in  general  be  raised,  but  that  small  corporations  be 
given  special  favorable  treatment.  Our  schedule  for  increasing  corporation  taxes 
has  been  worked  out  along  this  line  and  will  raise  an  additional  1.1  billion  dollars. 

Excise  Taxes 

It  is  the  belief  of  the  Treasury  Department  that  an  increase  in  excise  tax 
rates  has  much  to  commend  it  as  a  means  of  raising  additional  money  during  a 
war  period.  Little  or  no  increase  in  administrative  machinery  is  required. 
Items  can  be  selected  which  need  to  be  conserved  for  war  purposes  and  additional 
taxes  can  be  placed  upon  such  items  of  expenditure  as  liquor  and  tobacco.  The 
tax  rates  that  we  are  suggesting  have  been  fitted  to  the  wartime  conditions  of 
supply  and  demand  for  each  item  separately.  Under  the  schedule  which  we 
will  present  to  you  in  detail,  we  can  raise  an  additional  2.5  billion  dollars  through 
increases  in  present  excise  tax  rates  and  through  two  new  excises. 

The  tax  increases  just  suggested — the  added  estate  and  gift  taxes  of  400  million 
dollars,  the  new  corporation  taxes  of  1.1  billion  dollars,  and  the  increased  excises 
of  2.5  billions,  add  up  to  a  total  of  4  billion  dollars. 

'  Individual  Income  Taxes 

I  am  suggesting  increases  in  individual  income  taxes  to  yield  6.5  biUion  dollars. 
In  planning  a  schedule  to  raise  this  6.5  billions  in  additional  income  taxes,  we 
have  merged  the  Victory  tax  into  the  income  tax.  As  I  have  indicated,  the 
exemptions  suggested  are  $500  for  single  persons,  $1,100  for  married  persons,  and 
$300  for  each  dependent. 

The  total  amount  of  Victory  tax  paid  by  the  9  million  people  who  will  thus  be 
relieved  of  paying  any  Federal  income  tax  is  300  million  dollars,  all  of  which  has 
been  redistributed  and  absorbed  in  our  proposed  schedule. 

I  should  like  to  take  a  moment  now  to  tell  you  exactly  how  this  proposed 
income  tax  schedule  will  work  in  actual  practice. 

Take,  for  example,  a  married  person  with  two  dependents;  under  the  present 
law,  the  income  tax  exemption  would  amount  to  $1,900,  and  the  Victory  tax 
exemption  would  usually  amount  to  $624;  under  the  proposal,  there  would  be  one 
exemption  amounting  to  $1,700. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       389 

Such  a  person  having  a  net  income  of  a  thousand  dollars  a  year  will  pay  a 
gross  tax  under  the  present  law  of  $25,  of  which  $11  is  his  refundable  Victory 
tax  credit.     Under  the  new  proposal,  he  will  not  be  required  to  pay  any  tax  at  all. 

If  such  a  person  is  earning  $3,000  a  year,  he  is  now  paying  a  gross  tax  of  $327, 
of  which  $60  is  his  Victory  tax  credit.  Under  the  new  proposal,  he  would  pay 
$384,  or  $57  more  than  his  present  gross  tax. 

A  married  person  with  two  dependents  earning  $8,000  a  year  is  now  paying  a 
total  of  $1,735,  of  which  $182  is  his  Victory  tax  credit.  Under  the  present  pro- 
posal he  would  pay  $2,523,  or  $788  more  than  his  present  gross  tax. 

At  $25,000  per  year,  a  married  person  with  two  dependents  is  now  paying 
$10,171,  of  which  $597  is  his  Victory  tax  credit.  Under  the  new  proposal  he 
would  pay  $13,750,  or  $3,579  more  than  his  present  gross  tax. 

It  is  my  belief  that  the  suggestions  I  have  just  made  constitute  a  program  as 
equitable  as  could  be  suggested  to  attain  the  results  we  desire.  Enactment  of  a 
program  of  this  general  character,  I  believe,  would  serve  the  Nation  in  many 
ways. 

It  would  enable  us  to  finance  a  considerably  larger  part  of  our  huge  war  costs 
through  taxation;  and  by  so  doing  would  relieve  us  and  our  children  of  a  burden 
which  could  materially  retard  post-war  progress. 

It  would  materially  simplify  our  tax  structure. 

It  would  strengthen  us  in  our  war  on  inflation,  as  well  as  in  our  war  on  the 
Axis. 

All  of  the  tax  increases  I  have  mentioned  are  suggested  as  parts  of  a  war  program 
to  be  eflFective  only  until  a  date  following  the  termination  of  the  war  to  be  fixed 
by  Congress. 

Mr.  Paul  and  the  Treasury  staff  are  here  to  present  to  you  complete  schedules 
and  plans  and  answer  cjuestions  concerning  them. 

Statement  on  Social  Security 

There  is  one  further  suggestion  I  should  like  to  make  to  this  committee.  It  is 
not  a  part  of  the  tax  proposal,  but  it  bears  a  distinct  kinship  to  it. 

I  should  like  to  suggest,  as  enthusiastically  as  I  know  how,  that  you  amplify 
and  extend  the  present  social  security  system. 

I  have  talked  to  many  people  who  would  be  concerned  with  extension  of  the 
social  security  program  which  would  involve  increases  in  jjayroll  taxes.  I  have 
been  met  with  interest  and  enthusiasm  for  broadening  the  provisions  of  the 
Social  Security  Act.  I  have  been  assured  that  the  people  who  would  have  to 
pay  additional  j^ayroU  taxes  see  the  wisdom  of  making  the  necessary  additional 
sacrifices. 

The  President  has  announced  plans  to  reestablish  our  fighting  men  economically 
when  they  return  to  build  new  lives  on  the  sound  foundations  of  the  victory  they 
will  have  won;  and  now  we  must  also  keep  in  mind,  on  that  same  sound  foundation 
of  victory,  workingmen  and  farmers,  and  all  other  people  on  the  home  front,  many 
of  whom  are  not  now  covered  by  social  security,  must  also  build  new  and  better 
lives. 

Therefore,  I  suggest  that  the  Congress  seriously  consider  widening  social 
security  to  cover  practically  all  persons  in  the  Nation,  to  increase  unemployment 
insurance  benefits,  and  to  provide  benefits  for  temporary  disability  and 
hospitalization. 

On  the  basis  of  bills  already  introduced  in  Congress,  to  do  this  would  increase 
the  social  security  taxes  paid  by  employees  by  approximately  3.7  billions.  The 
necessarv  additional  emploj^ers'  payroll  tax  of  1.6  billion  dollars  would  make  an 
annual  increase  of  5.3  billion  dollars  for  social  security  purposes. 

A  substantial  increase  in  the  social  security  payroll  taxes  would  be  of  immediate 
service  in  diminishing  the  threat  of  inflation. 

There  is  no  pretense  on  the  part  of  low-income  people  that  they  could  com- 
fortably pay  these  additional  payroll  taxes.  It  is  known  by  them,  and  admitted 
to  be  a  sacrifice;  but  it  is  felt  by  leaders  and  spokesmen  for  many  such  people, 
and  by  those  of  the  people  themselves  with  whom  I  have  talked,  that  because  we 
would  be  expanding  social  security  advantages  and  permitting  workers  to  invest 
in  their  futures,  this  sacrifice  would  be  made  willingl3^ 

If  payroll  taxes  are  increased,  the  income  taxes  should  at  that  time  be  made 
substantially  lower  than  I  have  suggested  to  avoid  an  excessive  tax  burden  on 
the  lower-income  groups.

calendar  year  1944  with  one  exception.  The  estimate  of  miscellaneous  receipts  is  the  one  for  receipts  in 
the  fiscal  year  1944  contained  in  the  Sunnnation  of  the  1944  Budget  released  Aug.  1,  1943. 

2  Collections  for  credit  to  trust  funds  are  not  included. 

3  These  estimates  are  after  allowances  for  drawbacks  of  $27.6  millions  under  the  proposal  and  of  $14.8 
millions  under  present  law. 

I  Less  than  $0.05  million. 

5  The  tax  on  luggage  has  been  changed  from  a  manufacturers'  excise  to  a  retailers'  excise  tax. 

6  Includes  collections  from  taxes  on  narcotics;  taxes  under  the  National  Firearms  Act;  and  the  tax  on 
hydraulic  mining,  all  of  which  are  effective  currently.  In  addition  includes  collections  from  repealed  taxes 
not  reinstated  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941  and  collections  from  the  following  excise  taxes  repealed  by  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1942:  Rubber  articles,  electric  signs,  optical  equipment,  and  washing  machines. 

'  Post-war  credit,  suggestion  I,  50  percent  of  the  first  $50  of  individual  income  tax,  25  percent  of  the  next 
$50  of  tax,  and  5  percent  of  the  tax  in  excess  of  $100,  the  maximum  post-war  credit  not  to  exceed  $250. 

8  Post-war  credit,  suggestion  II,  50  percent  of  the  first  $50  of  individual  income  tax,  25  percent  of  the  next 
$150  of  tax,  and  10  percent  of  the  tax  in  excess  of  $200,  the  maximum  post-war  credit  not  to  exceed  $400. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


393 


EXHIBIT    C. SUMMARY    OF    INDIVIDUAL    INCOME    TAX    PROPOSALS 

(Effective  January  1,  1944,  except  as  indicated) 

1.  Rei^eal  Victory  tax. 

2.  Repeal  earned-income  credit. 

3.  Reduce  exemptions  for  married  persons  and  heads  of  families  from  $1,200  to 
$1,100,  lower  the  dependent  credit  from  $350  to  $300,  the  single  person  exemptions 
remaining  unchanged. 

4.  Increase  surtax  rates  throughout  the  scale. 

5.  Extend  withholding  to  salaries  and  wages  in  excess  of  the  first  bracket  surtax 
net  income  to  collect  substantially  the  full  liability  with  respect  to  the  higher 
salary  and  wage  brackets. 

6.  For  1943,  change  the  Victory  tax  to  accord  with  the  assumption  that  all 
post-war  credits  are  taken  currently. 

A  post-war  credit  to  apply  primarily  at  the  lower  levels  of  income  is  suggested 
as  a  possibility  for  the  committee's  consideration.  One  suggestion  is  to  refund 
2.27  billion  dollars.  The  other  is  to  refund  3.51  billion  dollars.  The  post-war 
credit  resulting  in  a  refund  of  2.27  billion  dollars  is  as  follows:  50  percent  of  the 
first  $50  of  tax,  plus  25  percent  of  the  next  $50,  plus  5  percent  of  the  balance, 
with  a  maximum  credit  of  $250.  The  post-war  credit  resulting  in  a  refund  of 
3.51  billion  dollars  is  as  follows:  50  percent  of  the  first  $50  of  tax,  plus  25  percent 
of  the  next  $150  of  tax,  plus  10  percent  of  the  balance,  with  a  maximum  credit 
of  $400.

Exhibit  47 

Stateytient  of  Secretary  Morgenthau  before  the  Senate  Finance  Comrnittee,  Noveinher  29, 
1943,  in  further  support  of  the  Treasury's  program  for  additional  revenue 

Mr.  Chairman  and  gentlemen,  when  I  appeared  before  the  Ways  and  Means 
Committee  of  the  House  on  October  4  to  present  the  administration's  suggestions 
for  increased  war  taxes,  I  gave  to  that  committee  as  best  I  could  a  picture  of  the 
financial  position  of  the  Nation  and  its  wartime  revenue  needs.  I  stated  that  the 
fiscal  situation  required  much  heavier  wartime  taxation  and  that  it  was  our 
opinion  that  the  people  could  pay  additional  wartime  taxes  of  at  least  $10.5 
billion.  The  Ways  and  Means  Committee  and  the  House  reached  a  different 
result  and  approved  a  bill  increasing  revenues  by  only  $2,000,000,000.  In  view 
of  this  wide  difference  on  a  matter  so  important  to  the  present  and  future  welfare 
of  this  Nation,  we  have  carefully  reviewed  the  fiscal  situation.  I  am  appearing 
before  you  today  to  present  our  conclusions. 

The  outstanding  fact  in  our  financial  picture  is  the  stupendous  bill  which  this 
war  will  leave  behind.  On  that  point  there  can  be  no  quibbling.  We  are  accumu- 
lating debt  at  the  rate  of  over  $150,000,000  a  day.  Last  month  (October  1943) 
the  Federal  Government  spent  $5.6  billion  more  than  it  collected  in  revenue.  In 
the  fiscal  year  1942  the  deficit  was  $21,000,000,000,  in  1943  it  was  $57,000,000,000, 
and  in  1944  it  is  expected  to  be  $57,000,000,000  again.  On  the  basis  of  any 
estimates  we  can  now  make,  we  foresee  a  public  debt  at  the  end  of  the  present 
fiscal  year  of  about  $200,000,000,000.  On  such  a  debt  the  interest  charges  alone 
will  be  close  to  $4,000,000,000  a  year.  As  the  war  continues,  the  debt,  the 
interest,  and  the  problems  of  repayment  will  grow  larger  and  larger. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       417 

In  this  situation  if  we  pay  in  taxes  any  less  than  we  can  now  afford  to  pay,  we 
shall  be  unfair  to  those  who  must  face  the  accumulated  bill  after  the  war  has  been 
fought  and  won.  We  shall  be  doing  a  particularly  great  injustice  to  the  men  who 
are  fighting  our  battles  on  foreign  soil.  We  shall  not  onlj'  be  asking  the  10,000,000 
members  of  the  armed  forces  to  give  the  most  important  years  out  of  their  lives 
to  fight  the  war.  We  shall  also  be  requiring  them  as  a  large  body  of  future 
taxpayers  to  pay  in  taxes  after  the  war  what  we  could  and  should  have  paid  while 
they  were  fighting. 

It  is  clear  that  we  are  not  paying  all  the  wartime  taxes  that  we  can  and  should 
pay.  We  are  not  now  fighting  an  all-out  war  on  the  fiscal  front.  All  the  estimates 
of  national  income,  by  whomever  made,  bear  elociuent  testimony  to  the  fact  that 
the  ability  of  the  American  people  to  pay  increased  taxes  is  far  from  being  ex- 
hausted. In  the  fiscal  year  1939  individuals  had  incomes,  after  personal  taxes,  of 
$65,000,000,000.  In  tlie  fiscal  year  1944,  it  is  estimated  that  individuals  will  have 
incomes  of  8126,000,000,000,  after  allowance  for  all  present  taxes.  That  is,  after 
paying  taxes,  incomes  of  people  in  the  United  States  will  have  almost  doubled 
since  1939. 

The  incomes  of  the  American  people  are  not  only  ample  to  pay  much  higher 
taxes.  The  spending  power  of  these  incomes  is  so  great  as  to  threaten  rapid  and 
burdensome  increases  in  the  cost  of  living.  About  half  of  American  productive 
effort  is  going  into  war  equipment  and  supplies  for  our  armed  forces.  These 
products  are  not  available  for  civilian  consumption.  Yet  our  people  are  being 
paid  for  all  they  produce.  They  thus  have  far  more  money  to  spend  than  there  are 
goods  on  which  to  spend  it.  In  the  fiscal  year  1944  this  surplus  of  income  over 
goods  is  expected  to  amount  to  about  $36,000,000,000  after  payment  of  personal 
taxes.  If  those  who  hold  this  surplus  income  try  to  spend  it  on  consumer  goods 
the  inevitable  result  will  be  black  markets,  ruptured  price  ceilings,  and  substantial 
increases  in  the  cost  of  living,  followed  by  tremendous  pressures  for  higher  wages 
and  farm  prices,  which  will  set  in  motion  further  forces  in  the  spiral  of  inflation. 

Up  to  this  point  spending  has  been  held  down  and  we  have  avoided  disastrous 
price  increases.  We  have  done  this  through  a  variety  of  measures.  Price  ceilings 
and  rationing,  wage  and  salary  stabilization,  and  the  taxes  already  imposed  have 
all  had  a  restraining  effect.  The  campaigns  for  the  voluntary  purchase  of  war 
bonds  with  their  emphasis  on  saving  have  been  a  strong  influence  in  curbing 
spending. 

But  we  cannot  expect  these  controls  to  hold  indefinitely  in  the  face  of  a  con- 
tinued large  surplus  of  income  over  goods  and  a  great  accumulation  of  spendable 
liquid  wartime  savings.  Day  after  day,  the  continuous  pressure  of  spending 
power  has  been  cracking  our  price  controls  a  little  here  and  a  little  there  and  threatens 
to  produce  a  major  break-down.  We  are  courting  danger  if  we  do  not  do  all  that  is 
possible  through  the  tax  mechanism  to  strengthen  the  foundations  of  our  stabiliza- 
tion program. 

I  have  been  told  that  the  American  people  do  not  believe  in  the  dangers  of 
inflation.  I  cannot  believe  that  is  true,  but  there  may  be  a  confusion  of  meaning. 
If  by  inflation  is  meant  a  situation  where  money  becomes  worthless,  I  agree  that 
the  danger  now  is  not  of  that  character.  It  is  rather  the  danger  of  substantial  and 
continuous  and,  at  least  in  part,  permanent  rises  in  prices  that  would  undermine 
standards  of  living,  reduce  the  value  of  investments,  and  impair  the  security  we 
seek  to  achieve  through  savings  and  insurance.  Unfortunately,  lack  of  belief 
in  the  danger  of  inflation  does  not  remove  that  danger.  There  are  few  indeed  who 
have  followed  with  care  the  developments  of  the  recent  past  who  are  not  concerned 
over  the  possible  break-down  of  the  stabilization  program.  Higher  wartime 
taxes  obviously  cannot  meet  the  danger  alone  but  they  are  necessary  if  it  is  to  be 
met. 

I  have  also  been  told  that  some  people  have  a  defeatist  attitude  toward  our  fiscal 
problem.  They  argue  that,  since  the  deficit  is  so  large,  the  Government  debt  so 
huge,  and  the  inflationary  possibilities  of  surplus  income  and  accumulated  private 
savings  so  great,  a  few  billion  dollars  more  or  less  will  not  make  a  great  deal  of 
difference  and  that,  therefore,  we  might  as  well  avoid  the  unpopularity  of  imposing 
additional  taxes.  I  think  this  would  be  a  poor  excuse  to  give  to  the  returning  sol- 
dier who  will  be  interested  to  know  what  sacrifices  we  incurred  at  home  to  protect 
his  future. 

In  fact,  however,  $10.5  billion  of  additional  taxes  would  have  very  important 
effects  on  the  deficit,  the  debt,  and  the  inflationary  pressure.  In  its  direct  effects 
on  spending,  in  the  renewed  assurance  it  would  give  that  the  elected  and  appointed 
representatives  of  the  people  take  the  problems  of  the  public  debt  seriously,  and 
in  the  sobering  influence  it  would  have  on  public  understanding  of  the  true  cost  of 
the  war,  a  $10.5  billion  increase  in  taxes  would  be  immensely  beneficial.

418       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Perhaps  the  most  superficially  plausible  and  therefore  the  most  insidious  argu- 
ment I  have  recently  heard  is  that  economy  in  governmental  expenditures  is  a 
substitute  for  higher  taxes.  Economy  is  always  an  important  objective  and  a  tax 
bill  makes  it  neither  more  nor  less  desirable.  I  am  in  complete  and  hearty  sym- 
pathy with  any  measure  that  can  be  adopted  to  reduce  governmental  costs,  to 
reduce  even  war  costs  so  long  as  the  reductions  do  not  impair  our  war  effort.  But 
if  we  are  to  fight  the  war  to  a  speedy  conclusion  we  cannot  relax  our  fighting  or  our 
production  for  war.  That  means  we  cannot  significantly  relax  our  spending.  I 
am  not  in  sympathy  with  any  measures  or  any  proposal  to  cut  expenditures  in  any 
way  that  will  make  our  total  production  anything  less  than  an  aU-out  effort. 

At  the  time  I  appeared  before  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee,  I  said  that 
"while  it  may  be  possible,  and  I  hope  it  is,  to  curtail  some  governmental  expendi- 
tures, even  that  will  not  lessen  our  need  for  getting  at  this  time  all  that  the  Ameri- 
can people  can  possibly  give  us  in  additional  taxation."  That  is  still  my  position. 

The  Bureau  of  the  Budget  has  just  released  estimates  that  total  expenditures 
for  the  fiscal  year  1944  which  ends  next  June  30  will  amount  to  $98,000,000,000 
instead  of  the  $106,000,000,000  in  the  estimate  issued  last  August.  It  is  under- 
stood that  this  decrease  in  expenditures  represents  a  combination  of  changes  in 
the  war  program  and  a  delay  in  reaching  the  production  goals  of  some  items. 
Revenues  were  estimated  at  $41,000,000,000  instead  of  $38,000,000,000.  The 
over-all  result  of  the  revision  is  to  reduce  the  previously  expected  deficit  from 
$68,000,000,000  to  $57,000,000,000  for  the  fiscal  year  1944. 

There  is  nothing  in  the  new  Budget  figures  in  our  opinion  to  warrant  reducing 
our  goal  below  $10.5  billion  of  additional  wartime  taxes.  If  no  one  had  originally 
expected  more  than  a  $57,000,000,000  deficit  for  the  fiscal  year  1944,  the  amount 
would  appear  tremendous,  which  it  truly  is.  It  is  no  less  so  because  it  represents 
a  reduction  from  a  previously  estimated  higher  figure;  $57,000,000,000  is  equal  to 
last  year's  record  deficit,  and  is  almost  three  times  the  deficit  of  1942. 

The  Budget  revisions  do  not  alter  the  fact  that  we  can  pay  much  higher  taxes; 
they  do  not  in  any  degree  affect  our  moral  obligation  to  meet  now  all  of  the  costs 
of  the  war  that  can  be  met  by  current  taxation ;  and  they  do  not  affect  in  significant 
degree  the  serious  inflationary  dangers  that  face  us  for  the  balance  of  this  fiscal 
year,  the  succeeding  fiscal  years  as  long  as  the  war  shall  last,  and  in  the  post-war 
period.  Our  tax  goal,  as  I  pointed  out  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee,  was 
the  amount  that  we  believed  could  be  fairly  distributed  without  undue  sacrifice 
and  hardship.  From  every  point  of  view  it  is  a  minimum  fiscal  program  in  the 
light  of  the  deficit,  the  accumulated  debt,  and  the  inflationary  pressure. 

In  view  of  all  these  facts,  the  House  bill,  in  my  opinion  falls  far  short  even  of  an 
attempt  to  meet  our  fiscal  needs  in  a  realistic  or  courageous  way. 

Let  us  bear  in  mind  that  an  essential  part  of  fighting  a  war  is  paying  for  it  in 
the  right  way  at  the  right  time.  There  is  no  escape  from  the  cost  of  war.  It  is 
a  great  fallacy  to  suppose  that  we  can  fight  history's  greatest  war  to  save  what 
we  hold  most  dear  without  financial  sacrifice.  Inevitably  we  shall  experience 
much  greater  financial  sacrifice  than  we  have  thus  far.  Taxation  now,  during  the 
war,  is  the  easiest  way  to  make  that  sacrifice. 

In  presenting  our  national  fiscal  problem  to  you,  I  have  endeavored  to  perform 
the  duty  placed  on  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  by  law  and  tradition.  I  have 
endeavored  to  show  you  as  objectively  and  as  clearly  as  I  can  that  a  tax  program 
of  not  less  than  $10.5  billion  is  needed  to  safeguard  the  financial  and  economic 
future  of  this  country  during  the  war  and  after  the  war. 


Supplemental  Statement  I — The  Sales  Tax 

The  Treasury  proposals  do  not  include  a  general  sales  tax.  I  should  like 
briefly  to  state  the  reasons  for  our  decision. 

The  form  of  sales  tax  which  would  produce  the  most  revenue  and  cause  the 
least  rupturing  of  price  ceilings  is  the  retail  sales  tax.  The  highest  rate  I  have 
heard  mentioned  is  10  percent.  That  is  over  three  times  as  high  as  the  rate  now 
in  force  in  any  State. 

A  10  percent  sales  tax  with  no  exemptions  for  necessities  of  life  would  raise  at 
current  sales  levels  about  $6  billion,  or  about  one-tenth  of  this  year's  estimated 
deficit. 

Such  a  tax  would  be  very  harsh,  especially  on  low  income  families  with  children. 
It  is  completely  lacking  in  any  relation  to  ability  to  pay  because  it  hits  families 
much  harder  than  single  individuals  at  the  same  income  levels  and  it  hits  people 
with  small  incomes  much  harder  than  people  with  larger  ones.     Such  a  tax  would 


REPORT  OF  TPIE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       419 

be  opposed  to  every  principle  of  tax  equity  and  would  in  my  opinion  interfere 
with  the  war  effort. 

There  are  many  proponents  of  the  sales  tax  who  would  agree  with  these  criti- 
cisms and  who  propose  to  meet  them  by  allowing  exemptions  of  the  necessities 
of  life.  Such  exemptions  would  indeed  improve  the  character  of  the  tax,  although 
they  would  still  leave  the  discrimination  against  large  families.  However,  the 
exemptions  would  quickly  remove  so  much  of  the  tax  base  as  to  leave  little  more 
than  an  empty  shell. 

The  exemption  of  food  would  reduce  the  yield  by  $2.4  billion;  the  exemption 
of  medicine  would  reduce  the  yield  another  $200  million ;  the  exemption  of  cloth- 
ing would  reduce  the  yield  by  another  $1.1  billion.  Those  exemptions  do  not 
include  all  of  the  necessities  of  life,  but  let  us  stop  at  that  point.  A  sales  tax  with 
such  exemptions  would  yield  about  $2.6  billion.  However,  of  that  amount  about 
$1.2  billion  would  come  from  goods  and  services  already  subject  to  Federal 
excise  taxes.  The  tax  yields  from  the  sale  of  these  commodities  can  be  increased 
or  decreased  by  adjusting  the  excise  tax  rates.  No  sales  tax  is  needed  to  produce 
revenue  from  them.  All  that  is  left  after  excluding  such  commodities  is  $1.4 
billion.  Nearly  $600  million  of  the  $1.4  billion  would  come  from  equipment, 
chemicals,  and  materials  used  in  business  and  thus  entering  into  the  costs  of 
doing  business,  with  resultant  increases  in  the  costs  of  doing  business  and  in 
prices  to  the  Government  and  to  the  public. 

Most  of  the  remaining  $800  million  tax  would  be  on  items  that  might  properly 
be  subject  to  sales  taxation.  It  is  hardly  necessary  to  point  out  that  the  expenses 
to  2%  million  businessmen  and  increased  costs  to  Government,  as  well  as  the  use 
of  precious  manpower,  would  not  be  justified  by  yields  of  this  kind  when  there 
are  other  methods  of  raising  money  at  hand  which  do  not  call  for  heavy  increases 
in  costs  of  administration  and  compliance. 

It  is  very  doubtful  if  a  general  sales  tax  without  the  exemption  of  necessities 
of  life  would  really  be  helpful  in  financing  the  war  or  restraining  inflationary 
price  rises.  The  imposition  of  a  substantial  sales  tax  would  almost  surely  be  the 
signal  for  widespread  demands  for  higher  wages  and  farm  prices  which,  if  allowed, 
would  result  in  large  additional  costs  to  Government  and  increases  in  the  cost  of 
living  over  and  beyond  the  amount  of  the  tax.  These  dangers  are  much  greater 
in  the  sales  tax  than  in  excise  taxes  or  income  taxes.  Excise  taxes  touch  in  only 
minor  respects  commodities  that  are  necessities  of  life,  while  income  taxes  have 
personal  exemptions  which  protect  minimum  living  standards. 

Personal  exemptions  could  be  introduced  into  the  sales  tax,  but  the  incon- 
venience of  distributing  and  using  exemption  coupons  and  the  resultant  reduction 
in  revenue  would  be  serious  factors.  Even  the  most  simple  sales  tax  would 
require  the  use  of  much  precious  manpower  and  machines  by  Government  and 
business.  It  is  doubtful  if  manpower  and  those  machines  could  be  secured  without 
interfering  with  the  war  effort. 

Supplemental  Statement  II. — Tax  Burdens  on  the  Lower  Income  Groups 

It  is  contended  that  persons  with  incomes  of  less  than  $5,000  are  the  major 
source  of  inflationary  pressure  and  that  these  persons  would  escape  their  fair  share 
of  the  additional  tax  load  under  the  Treasury  proposals.  Although  at  1944  levels 
of  income  about  81  percent  of  the  total  cash  income  will  be  received  by  persons 
with  incomes  under  $5,000,  only  65  percent  of  the  net  income  above  income  tax 
exemptions  will  be  received  by  this  group.  Likewise,  although  61  percent  of  total 
income  will  be  received  by  persons  with  incomes  under  $3,000,  only  39  percent  of 
the  net  income  above  income  tax  exemptions  will  be  received  by  this  group. 

Looking  behind  these  aggregates  to  individual  cases  we  find  that  the  margin  of 
disposable  income  over  and  above  wartime  needs  is  very  narrow  for  the  millions 
of  persons  in  the  lower  income  brackets.  Out  of  67.3  million  income  recipients  in 
the  calendar  year  1944,  58.2  million  are  expected  to  receive  net  incomes  of  less 
than  $3,000.  The  average  cash  income  per  recipient  before  taxes  will  be  $1,650 
and  after  existing  taxes,  about  $1,500.  The  demands  of  wartime  living  on  incomes 
of  this  size  leave  little  margin  for  additional  taxes  and  afford  few  opportunities  for 
inflationary  spending. 

Nevertheless,  the  urgent  requirements  of  war  finance  demand  that  we  tap  even 
this  small  margin  of  disposable  income.  Under  the  Treasury  proposals  one-half 
of  the  income  tax  increases  would  fall  on  persons  with  net  incomes  of  less  than 
$5,000  and  about  one-fourth  on  persons  with  less  than  $3,000.  Much  the  same 
proportions  hold  for  the  complete  Treasury  program,  including  proposed  changes 
in  corporation  taxes  and  in  excise  taxes.

Exhibit  48 

Statement  of  Randolph  E.  Paul,  General  Counsel  for  the  Treasury  Department,  before 
the  Senate  Finance  Cojumittee,  November  29,  1943,  discussing  Treasury  tax  pro- 
posals in  detail  and  comparing  them  with  provisions  of  the  House  bill* 

A.  Introduction 

The  purpose  of  my  statement  today  is,  first,  to  explain  in  detail  the  specific 
recommendations  of  "the  Treasury  and  to  compare  them  with  the  provisions  of 
H.  R.  3687,  the  House  bill;  second,  to  indicate  some  of  the  technical  considerations 
underlying  the  Treasury  proposals;  and,  third,  to  examine  with  you  some  of  the 
principal  criticisms  which  have  been  made  of  the  administration's  proposals  for 
$10.5  billion  of  additional  taxes. 

B    Revenue  Comparison  of  the  Treasury  Proposals  and  the  House  Bill 

(H.  R.  3687) 

In  his  statement  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  on  October  4,  1943,  the 
Secretary  recommended  wartiine  tax  increases  totaling  $10.58  billion  for  a  full 
year  of  operation.     The  bill  now  before  you  would  raise  $2.05  billion.     These  totals 

are  made  up  as  follows:

2  This  estimate  is  in  contrast  with  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee's  estimate  of  a  yield  of  $2,139,000,000. 

Theie  is  attached  hereto  as  appendix  A  a  statement  comparing  the  proposals 
made  by  the  Treasuiy  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  with  the  provisions  of 
the  House  bill. 

C.  The  Individual  Income  Tax 

The  major  objectives  of  the  Treasury  individual  income  tax  proposal  are  (1)  to 
simplify  the  income  tax  by  absorbing  the  Victory  tax  into  the  regular  income  tax 
structure,  and  (2)  to  add  $6.5  billion  to  tax  revenues.  The  major  objective  of  the 
income  tax  provisions  in  the  House  bill  is  to  replace  the  Victory  tax  with  a  mini- 
mum tax  and  adjustments  in  the  regular  income  tax. 

I.  simplification  through  victory  tax  integration 

The  chairman  of  this  committee  and  many  others  have  expressed  concern  over 
the  complexities  of  our  tax  laws  and  an  urgent  desire  to  simplify  our  tax  structure. 
The  Treasury  shares  the  view  that  simplification  is  a  first  order  of  business,  and  on 
several  occasions  has  made  specific  suggestions  to  this  end.  Especially  in  the  case 
of  the  individual  income  tax,  which  directly  affects  more  than  50,000,000  tax- 
payers, simplification  has  become  crucially  important.  No  really  effective  simpli- 
fication is  possible  without  eliminating  the  Victory  tax.  Both  the  Treasury  pro- 
posal and  the  House  bill  recognize  this  fact  by  replacing  the  Victory  tax  with 
adjustments  in  the  regular  income  tax.' 


♦In  the  interest  of  brevity  17  of  the  18  exhibits  submitted  with  Mr.  Paul's  statement,  a  section  on  the  sales 
tax  duplicating  the  Secretary's  statement  on  this  subject,  and  the  charts  are  here  omitted,  and  the  text  has 
bfen  adjusted  accordingly.  "The  full  statement  may  be  found  in  the  Hearings  of  the  Senate  Finance  Com- 
mittee on  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943,  pp.  25-98. 

1  One  proposal  for  simphfication  recommended  by  the  Treasury  has  already  been  adopted  and  will  apply 
to  1943  tax  returns  filed  next  March.  In  Public  Law  178,  the  Congress  changed  the  Victory  tax  rate  from  a 
gross  to  a  net  basis  by  providing  for  automatic  current  allowance  of  the  post-war  credit.  This  change  elimi- 
nates a  complicated  step  in  computing  the  Victory  tax. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       421 

(a)  Comparison  of  Treasury  and  House  bill  methods  of  integral  ion. —The  method 
suggested  by  the  Treasury  to  absorb  the  Victory  tax  into  the  regular  income  tax 
structure  would  (a)  repeal  the  Victory  tax;  {h)  eliminate  the  earned-income  credit; 
(c)  reduce  the  personal  exemption  for  a  married  person  or  head  of  family  from 
$1,200  to  $1,100,  and  the  dependent  credit  from  $350  to  $300,  leaving  the  single 
person's  exemption  unchanged;  and  (d)  increase  surtax  rates  by  3  percentage  points 
on  surtax  net  income  up  to  $38,000,  and  by  4  to  7  points  above  that  level. 

The  House  bill  (o)  repeals  the  Victory  tax;  (6)  eliminates  the  earned-income 
credit;  (c)  imposes  a  minimum  tax  of  3  percent  on  the  excess  of  net  income  over 
special  personal  exemptions  ($500  for  a  single  individual  or  a  married  person  filing 
a  separate  return,  and  $700  for  a  married  couple  filing  a  joint  return,  plus  $100  for 
each  dependent) ;  -  (d)  sets  the  personal  exemption  under  the  regular  income  tax 
at  $500  for  each  married  person  filing  a  separate  return;  (e)  increases  the  normal 
tax  rate  from  6  percent  to  10  percent;  and  (/)  decreases  surtax  rates  by  1  percentage 
point  on  surtax  net  income  between  $6,000  and  $12,000  and  increases  them  by  1 
to  3  percentage  points  on  surtax  net  income  above  $38,000.  The  combined  normal 
tax  and  surtax  increase  would  be  4  percentage  points  on  net  taxable  income  up  to 
$6,000;  3  points  between  $6,000  and  $12,000;  4  points  between  $12,000  and 
$38,000;  and  5  to  7  points  above  that  level. 

Comparing  the  Treasury  proposal  with  the  House  bill,  we  find  that  they  differ 
sharply  in  the  technique  of  integration.  The  principal  difference  is  this:  The 
House'  bill  substitutes  for  the  Victory  tax  a  3  percent  minimum  tax  with  new 
exemptions;  the  Treasurv  proposal  employs  no  minimum  tax  but  would  reduce 
the  credit  for  dependents  bv  $50  and  the  exemption  for  a  married  couple  by  $100 

(b)  Analysis  of  the  integration  plan  in  H.  R.  3687.  In  the  process  of  absorbing 
the  Victory  tax  into  the  regular  income  tax  structure,  both  the  House  bill  and  the 
Treasury  proposal  eliminate  the  earned-income  credit  and  thereby  simplify  tax 
computation.  But  the  real  promise  of  simplification  this  year  lies  in  substituting 
a  single  income  base  for  a  double  base,  a  single  set  of  exemptions  for  a  double  set, 
and  a  single  tax  computation  for  a  double  one.  The  Treasury  integration  pro- 
posal would  realize  this  promise  in  full.  The  House  bill  realizes  the  same  promise 
only  in  a  minor  degree,  and  at  the  same  time  adds  some  complexities  found 
neither  in  the  present  law  nor  in  the  Treasury  proposal. 

The  House  bill  eliminates  the  gross  base  of  the  Victory  tax  and  substitutes  a 
single  for  a  double  tax  computation  on  the  simplified  form  (Form  1040A).  Both 
the  regular  income  tax  and  the  minimum  tax  are  computed  on  the  basis  of  income 
tax  net  income.  Moreover,  a  table  indicating  the  regular  tax  and  minimum  tax 
is  provided  for  users  of  the  simplified  form.  This  is  all  to  the  good,  but  it  is  only 
a  small  part  of  the  simplification  that  is  needed. 

The  House  bill  does  not  eliminate  the  dual  set  of  personal  exemptions  and  will 
still  require  users  of  the  long  form  (Form  1040)  to  determine  which  of  two  taxes 
applies  to  their  incomes.  In  addition,  it  will  confuse  taxpayers  with  its  com- 
plicated minimum  tax.  It  will  make  it  disadvantageous  for  many  taxpayers 
now  using  the  simplified  form  to  use  that  form  in  the  future.  It  will  require 
millions  of  married  couples  to  go  through  a  series  of  alternative  tax  computations 
to  ascertain  their  lowest  possible  liability. 

(1)  Confusion  caused  by  minimum  tax:  The  House  bill  provides  that  taxpayers 
shall  pay  either  the  minimum  tax  or  the  regular  tax,  whichever  is  larger.  Two 
alternative  taxes  with  different  rates  and  exemptions  will  confront  taxpayers 
using  the  long  form.  A  table  can  be  appended  to  that  form  showing  the  net  in- 
come "breaking  points"  above  which  the  regular  tax  applies  and  below  which  the 
minimum  tax  applies.  But  this  mechanical  guide  cannot  remove  the  confusion 
inherent  in  having  two  alternative  taxes  side  by  side. 

The  confusion  caused  by  the  House  bill  may  perhaps  best  be  visualized  by  a 
specific  example.  Take  the  case  of  a  married  couple  with  two  dependents,  the 
husband  having  $900  of  net  income  from  business  and  the  wife  $700.  Their 
minimum  combined  liability  under  the  House  bill  will  be  realized  by  filing  sep- 
arate returns,  each  claiming  one  dependent.  The  husband  will  be  subject  to  the 
regular  tax,  the  wife,  to  the  minimum  tax.  The  husband  will  get  a  $350  credit 
for  the  one  dependent  and  will  applv  a  23  percent  rate  to  his  income.  The  wife 
will  get  a  $100  credit  for  the  other  dependent  and  will  apply  a  3  percent  rate  to 
her  income.     The  confusion  in  this  family  is  apparent.

the  House  bill  the  "problem  of  choosing  between  joint  and  separate  returns  is  not

422       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

only  greatly  complicated,  but  is  forced  upon  millions  of  taxpayers  not  now  affected 
by  it  because  of  the  difference  in  aggregate  exemptions  depending  upon  whether 
separate  or  joint  returns  are  filed.  Under  present  law  the  problem  is  restricted 
to  the  comparatively  few  married  couples  having  combined  net  incomes  reaching 
beyond  the  first  surtax  bracket.  The  choice  is  fairly  clear.  It  involves  persoss 
who  are  for  the  most  part  familiar  with  tax  procedure.  To  married  couples  with 
combined  surtax  net  incomes  below  $2,000,  it  is  generally  a  matter  of  indifference 
whether  they  file  separate  or  joint  returns. 

However,  under  the  House  bill  it  is  no  longer  a  matter  of  indifference.  Married 
taxpayers  in  even  the  lowest  income  brackets,  many  of  them  newcomers  to  the 
income  tax,  will  be  driven  to  compare  the  tax  advantages  of  joint  and  separate 
returns.  They  will  find  that  the  advantage  shifts  with  the  size  of  income,  with 
the  particular  division  of  income  between  husband  and  wife,  and  with  the  number 
and  division  of  dependents.  Because  of  these  variables,  no  clear  dividing  lines 
or  income  zones  can  be  established  to  guide  taxpayers  into  one  type  of  return  or 
tlie  other.  In  order  to  determine  their  lowest  tax  liability,  they  will  have  to 
resort  to  a  method  of  trial  and  error  involving  numerous  alternative  computations. 

Merely  stating  the  provisions  of  the  House  bill  on  this  point  demonstrates 
how  bewildered  the  taxpayer  will  be.  Under  the  minimum'' tax  husband  and  wife 
receive  an  exemption  of  $500  each,  or  a  total  'of  $1,000,  if  they  file  separate  re- 
turns, but  only  one  $700  exemption  if  they  file  a  joint  return.  Under  the  regular 
income  tax,  their  exemption  is  still  $500  each,  or  a  total  of  $1,000,  on  separate 
returns,  but  is  $1,200  on  a  joint  return.^  In  other  words,  the  minimum  tax 
exemption  will  be  smaller  under  a  joint  return  tlian  under  separate  returns,  thus 
offering  an  inducement  to  file  separate  returns.  The  regular  tax  exemption,  on 
the  other  hand,  will  be  greater  under  a  joint  return  than  under  separate  returns, 
thus  offering  an  inducement  to  file  joint  returns.  By  setting  the  credit  for  de- 
pendents at  $100  for  the  minimum  tax  in  contrast  with  $350  for  the  regular  tax, 
the  House  bill  further  complicates  the  choice  between  joint  and  separate  returns. 

The  large  number  of  variables  injected  by  the  House  bill  will  force  husband 
and  wife  who  both  receive  income  to  compute  a  series  of  alternative  taxes  to 
ascertain  their  lowest  possible  liabihty.  I  should  like  to  cite  an  example  which 
brings  home  more  forcibly  than  any  lengthy  explanation  the  nature  of  the  com- 
pliance burden  imposed  on  these  taxpayers.  The  example  is  that  of  a  married 
couple  with  3  children  and  a  net  income  of  $2,125,  of  which  the  husband  receives 
$1,250  and  the  wife,  $875.  Using  Form  1040,  this  couple  could  reach  five  differ- 
ent tax  results.  This  would  involve  nine  separate  tax  computations.  These 
computations  are  necessary  to  determine  the  maximum  tax  advantage  under  (1) 
joint  or  separate  returns  and  (2)  different  divisions  of  the  dependents  between 
husband  and  wife.  (See  illustration  in  appendix  B.)  To  be  absolutely  certain 
that  they  have  arrived  at  their  lowest  possible  tax,  this  couple  would  also  have 
to  make  nine  tax  determinations  on  the  short  form  (1040A).  The  actual  case  in 
which  18  tax  computations  would  be  made  to  ascertain  the  lowest  tax  would  be 
rare.  But  the  mere  fact  that  such  cases  can  occur  and  that  a  problem  similar  in 
kind,  if  not  in  degree,  will  be  faced  by  many  taxpayers  is  a  serious  indictment  of 
this  phase  of  the  House  bill. 

With  such  extreme  complexity  established  beyond  any  doubt,  the  question 
might  still  arise  (a)  whether  the  number  of  necessary  tax  computations  is  much 
larger  than  under  present  law,  (b)  whether  the  tax  differentials  involved  are  sub- 
stantial, and  (c)  whether  many  taxpayers  will  be  affected. 

(a)  There  is  no  incentive  under  present  law  for  married  persons  with  small 
incomes  to  file  separate  returns,  and  the  problem  of  allocating  dependents  is 
thereby  avoided. 

(6)  The  illustration  in  appendix  B  shows  that  the  tax  differentials  under  the 
various  procedures  for  computing  the  tax  can  be  very  substantial.  On  the  modest 
income  of  $2,125  in  the  example  cited,  the  tax  liability  computed  on  Form  1040 
ranges  from  $24.75  under  the  most  advantageous  method  to  $174.75  under  the 
least  advantageous  method  of  filing. 

(c)  Estimates  indicate  that  the  House  bill  will  confront  well  over  10  million 
married  couples  with  the  choice  between  joint  and  separate  returns.  Under  that 
bill  it  is  estimated  that  10.7  million  joint  returns  will  be  filed  for  1944.* 


'  None  of  tfee  $500  exemption  allowed  on  a  separate  return  may  be  shifted  from  one  spouse  to  the  other 
under  either  the  minimum  or  the  regular  tax. 

♦  Under  present  law,  8.2  million  joint  returns  are  expected,  while  under  the  Treasury  integration  proposal 
the  figure  would  be  6.7  million. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       423 

In  addition,  a  number  of  separate  returns  will  also  be  filed  by  married  couples 
where  both  receive  income.  The  great  majority  of  millions  of  married  couples 
will  decide  to  file  either  joint  or  separate  returns  only  after  making  difficult,  time- 
consuming  comparisons. 

(3)  Decreased  use  of  the  simplified  return:  Another  undesirable  byproduct  of 
the  House  bill  is  that  it  would  in  effect  deny  the  use  of  the  simplified  form  (1040A) 
to  manjf  taxpayers  now  able  to  use  that  form.  Husband  and  wife  may  use  Form 
1040A  as  a  separate  return  as  long  as  both  use  it  and  neither  has  more  than  $3,000 
of  gross  income.  The  House  bill,  by  providing  married  couples  with  a  $1,200 
exemption  if  they  file  joint  returns  but  a  combined  exemption  of  only  $1,000  if 
they  file  separate  returns,  places  a  premium  on  joint  returns.  As  a  result,  many 
married  persons  with  combined  gross  incomes  between  $3,000  and  $6,000,  who 
now  file  separate  returns  on  Form  1040A,  will  be  penalized  by  a  $200  reduction  in 
exemption  if  they  continue  to  use  Form  1040A.  Plainly,  they  will  turn  to  the 
more  complicated  Form  1040.  Since  it  is  desirable  to  extend  rather  than  restrict 
the  use  of  the  simplified  form,  this  effect  of  the  House  bill  is  unfortunate. 

(4)  Complication  of  the  withholding  process:  In  addition  to  comphcating  tax 
returns  and  the  filing  process,  H.  R.  3687  complicates  collection  at  the  source  and 
raises  new  problems  for  employers.  Many  employers  withhold  on  the  exact 
basis  instead  of  by  w^age  brackets,  either  to  approximate  the  final  liability  more 
closely  or  because  their  mechanical  equipment  requires  the  use  of  the  exact  com- 
putation. Since  the  Victory  tax  exemption  is  $624  regardless  of  family  status, 
present  law  requires  the  employer  to  apply  only  one  set  of  exemptions  varying 
with  family  status.  But  under  the  House  bill  "the  minimum  tax  will  also  have 
variable  exemptions.  Employers  will  thus  be  confronted  with  two  sets  of  varying 
exemptions,  as  well  as  two  tax  rates,  in  determining  how  much  to  withhold. 

The  problem  of  year-end  refunds  and  additional  tax  payments  is  also 
aggravated.^ 

Husbands  and  wives  filing  separate  returns  have  fixed  exemptions  of  $500  each. 
No  shift  of  part  of  the  exemption  from  one  to  the  other  is  permitted  as  under 
present  law.  Situations  will  frequently  arise,  therefore,  where  one  spouse  is 
entitled  to  a  refund  and  the  other  is  subject  to  additional  tax.  Yet,  because  the 
exemption  is  fixed  at  $500,  the  opportunity  that  exists  today  for  canceling  out  the 
refund  and  the  additional  liability  is  removed.  For  example,  if  the  wife  works 
part  of  the  year  but  does  not  take  any  of  the  withholding  exemption,  she  is 
entitled  to  a  refund.  The  husband,  who  takes  the  entire  withholding  exemption, 
will  probably  have  to  pay  additional  tax.  But  even  if  the  wife's  refund  is  equal 
to  or  greater  than  the  husband's  remaining  liability,  there  is  no  way  of  shifting  the 
personal  exemption  and  thus  offsetting  one  against  the  other.  He  will  have  to 
pay  the  tax  and  she  will  have  to  wait  for  a  refund. 

(5)  Complication  of  the  administrative  process:  The  House  bill  also  makes 
heavy  demands  upon  administration.  For  1944,  it  will  require  the  filing  and 
processing  of  41.7  million  returns,  representing  52.4  million  taxpayers,  in  contrast 
with  the  Treasury  proposal,  which  would  require  only  36.5  million  returns  repre- 
senting 43.2  million  taxpayers.^  The  House  bill,  like  the  present  law,  requires 
millions  of  returns  from  persons  in  those  income  brackets  in  which  the  ratio  of 
administrative  effort  to  tax  proceeds  is  highest.  Moreover,  the  complexity  and 
confusion  generated  by  the  double  exemptions  and  computations  and  by  the 
involved  choice  between  joint  and  separate  returns  will  inevitably  burden  ad- 
ministration. Both  in  terms  of  the  taxpayers  who  will  throng  the  collectors' 
offices  for  help,  and  in  terms  of  the  volume  of  errors  that  taxpayers  will  make,  the 
House  bill  magnifies  the  problems  of  administration. 

(c)  Contrast  of  House  bill  with  Treasury  integration  proposal  from  the  standpoint 
of  simplicity. — The  contrast  between  the  House  biU  and  the  Treasury  proposal  on 
the  score  of  simplicity  is  complete.  What  the  House  bill  gains  in  removing  the 
Victory  tax,  it  loses  in  introducing  the  minimum  tax.  It  retains  the  complexities 
of  a  double  tax  system  and  adds  special  vagaries  of  its  own.  It  burdens  admin- 
istration with  new  problems  at  a  time  when  it  is  still  faced  by  the  enormous  task 
of  adjusting  itself  to  current  collection.  Worst  of  all,  it  will  require  taxpayers  to 
struggle  with  the  new  minimum  tax  concept  even  before  they  finish  hurdling  the 
Victory  tax  barrier. 


6  The  Treasury  has  recommended  changes  in  the  withholding  procedure  that  would  minimize  the  problem 
of  year-end  refunds  and  additional  tax  payments.  The  Treasury  proposed  that  withholding  be  applied 
on  a  graduated  basis  to  the  taxpayer's  full  liability  rather  than  merely  to  his  partial  liability  under  the  normal 
tax  and  the  first  bracket  of  surtax.  It  also  proposed  narrower  withholding  brackets  to  adjust  amounts 
withheld  more  closely  to  actual  tax  liabilities. 

«  Under  present  law  the  figures  would  be  44.1  million  returns  and  52.3  million  taxpayers. 


424       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Under  the  Treasury  proposal,  on  the  other  hand,  there  would  be  no  double  tax 
base,  no  double  exemptions,  and  no  multiple  choices  and  computations.  Admin- 
istration would  be  simplified  by  dropping  the  Victory  tax.  Similarly,  with- 
holding would  be  simplified  by  dropping  the  minimum  withholding  feature 
necessary  to  guarantee  collection  of  the  Victory  tax.  Most  important,  com- 
pliance would  be  simplified.  Taxpayers  could  face  the  prospect  of  filing  their 
necessarily  complicated  annual  return  next  March  with  the  assurance  that  future 
income  tax  returns  would  be  both  more  imderstandable  and  simpler. 

(d)  Tax  increases  and  decreases  under  the  House  hill  and  the  Treasury  integration 
proposal. — Some  contend  that  the  Treasury  proposal  achieves  simplicity  at  an 
excessively  high  cost  in  tax  reduction  for  taxpayers  in  the  lowest  brackets  and 
that  the  House  bill  involves  no  corresponding  cost.  I  should  like  to  cite  the 
facts  refuting  this  contention. 

The  Treasury  integration  proposal  would  exempt  entirely  9.1  million  taxpayers 
who  now  pay  a  net  Victory  tax  of  275  million  dollars.  Including  these,  it  would 
reduce  taxes  for  18  million  taxpayers,  the  combined  reduction  totaling  436  million 
dollars.  The  House  bill  exempts  only  130,000  taxpayers,  but  reduces  taxes  for  a 
total  of  26.0  million  taxpayers;  the  aggregate  reduction  is  370  miUion  dollars,  onl\- 
66  million  dollars  less  than  the  Treasury  proposal.  The  Treasury  proposal  would 
increase  liabilities  for  34.4  million  taxpayers,  the  increases  totaling  711  million 
dollars.  The  House  bill  increases  liabilities  for  26.4  million  taxpayers,  the 
increases  totaling  459  million  dollars.  While  the  9  million  taxpayers  who  would 
be  exempted  under  the  Treasury  proposal  pay  275  million  dollars  under  present 
law,  they  would  pay  only  161  million  dollars  under  the  House  bill.  This  figure 
of  161  inillion  dollars  measures  the  reduction  involved  in  their  elmination  from 
the  incoine  tax  rolls. 

Any  integration  plan  will  inevitably  change  liabilities  of  many  taxpayers.  The 
major  concern  should  be  that  the  changes  meet  the  tests  of  simplicity  and  fairness. 
The  Treasury  changes  meet  these  tests  far  better  than  the  changes  in  H.  R.  3687. 
While  the  Treasury  integration  proposal  would  reduce  taxes  only  for  taxpayers  in 
the  lowest  brackets  and  subject  to  family  responsibilities,  the  House  bill  would 
apply  reductions  to  taxpayers  with  incomes  as  high  as  $3,931  (married  person  with 
two  dependents)  and  $4,572  (married  person  with  three  dependents).  >.Tore 
important,  the  Treasurv  proposal  would  simplifv  the  entire  income  tax  structure  in 
eliminating  $275,000,000  of  tax  for  the  9,000,000  taxpayers  least  able  to  pay  and 
most  expensive  to  tax.  In  contrast,  the  House  bill  complicates  that  structure 
and  multiplies  the  compliance  laurdens  of  over  50,000,000  persons  merely  to  keep 
the  9,000,000  taxpayers  on  the  rolls,  and  to  exact  from  them  the  relatively  small 
sum  of  $161,000,000.  It  seems  utterly  unreasonable  to  erect  a  mountain  of 
complexity  for  such  a  molehill  of  revenue. 

(e)  Conclusion  on  simplif cation. — Simplicity  in  income  taxation  implies  both 
mechanical  ease  of  compliance  and  understandability  of  the  basic  tax  rules.  The 
integration  scheme  in  H.  R.  3687  violates  both  of  these  standards.  It  has  been 
amply  illustrated  that  the  mechanical  problems  of  compliance  under  the  minimum 
tax  may  be  even  more  burdensome  than  those  associated  with  the  Victory  tax. 
But  even  assuming  that  master  tables  could  be  developed  to  cope  with  most  of  the 
mechanical  complexities  of  the  House  bill,  the  problem  of  simplicity  would  not  be 
solved.  The  minimum  tax  and  its  relationship  to  the  regular  tax  completely  defy 
understanding  on  the  part  of  the  average  taxpayer. 

A  tax  law  which  aflFects  over  50,000,000  people  must  be  made  understandable 
to  them  if  it  is  to  survive.  It  must  be  explainable  to  them  over  the  radio,  in 
the  press,  and  through  the  mails.  I  might  be  able  to  visualize  mechanical  guides 
which  would  help  taxpayers  to  stumble  in  robot  fashion  through  income  tax 
compliance  under  the  House  bill.  I  cannot  visualize  an  information  campaign 
that  could  make  this  tax  understandable  to  taxpayers  generally. 

Putting  the  minimum  tax  in  its  proper  perspective,  it  is  not  an  overstatement 
to  say  that  its  complexities  will  jeopardize  the  whole  income  tax  system.  Merely 
to! collect  $161,000,000  from  9,000,000  taxpayers  near  the  bottom  of  the  income 
scale,  it  endangers  the  collection  of  more  than  $17,000,000,000  from  over  50,000,- 
000  taxpayers  throughout  the  scale.  The  House  bill  offers  the  American  taxpayer 
a  minimum  tax  "cure"  that  is  worse  than  the  Victory  tax  "disease."  We  cannot 
afford  to  disappoint  the  mass  of  taxpayers  who  have  been  promised  relief  from  the 
complexities  of  our  present  dual  tax  structure.  We  cannot  risk  a  breakdown  in 
the  mainstay  of  our  Federal  tax  system  in  the  midst  of  total  war. 

The  question  of  Victory  tax  integration  is  of  crucial  importance.  I  am  firmly 
convinced  that  the  Treasury  integration  proposal  would  achieve  real  simplification 
at  a  modest  and  entirely  reasonable  cost. 


REPORT  OF  TPIE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       425 

2.    INCREASE  IN   REVENUE 

(a)  The  Treasury  proposal. — Thus  far,  I  have  discussed  only  the  Victory  tax 
integration  segment  of  the  Treasury  individual  income  tax  proposal.  The  Treas- 
ury has  also  recommended  as  part  of  a  10.5  billion  dollar  program  of  wartime  taxes 
that  an  additional  6.5  billion  dollars  of  revenue  be  raised  in  individual  income 
taxes.  The  surtax-rate  increases  suggested  to  raise  this  revenue  of  course  include 
the  changes  designed  to  absorb  the  Victory  tax. 

Two  alternative  schedules  for  raising  approximately  6.5  billion  dollars  of  added 
income  tax  revenue  are  also  attached  for  the  convenience  of  your  committee.  (See 
exhibit  on  page  437.)  It  will  be  seen  that  these  alternative  schedules  would  impose 
a  heavier  burden  in  the  lower-income  brackets  than  the  October  4  proposal.^  The 
exact  additional  burden  is  indicated  in  the  footnote  in  my  statement. 

(b)  The  House  bill. — Revenue  is  only  an  incidental  consideration  in  the  income 
tax  provisions  of  the  House  bill.  Those  provisions  will  add  $226,000,000  to 
income  tax  revenues.  Of  this  amount  about  $90,000,000  is  attributable  to  the 
changes  made  in  connection  with  Victory  tax  integration.  About  $150,000,000 
is  attributable  to  the  disallowance  of  deductions  for  Federal  import  duties  and 
miscellaneous  excise  and  stamp  taxes  not  otherwise  deductible  as  business  expenses.' 
The  other  individual  income  tax  changes  made  by  the  House  bill  are  of  a  technical 
character. 

3.    ANSWJIR    TO    CRITICISMS    OF    THE    TREASURY    PROPOSALS    FOR    HIGHER    INCOME 

TAXES 

I  should  now  like  to  examine  with  you  some  criticisms  that  have  been  made  of 
the  Treasury's  affirmative  income  tax  proposals.  The  three  arguments  I  shall 
examine  are  (1)  that  the  Treasury  proposals  would  not  bear  heavily  enough  on 
the  lower-income  brackets;  (2)  that  the  American  people  do  not  have  the  capacity 
to  pay  more  income  taxes,  and  (3)  that  income  tax  rates  in  1944  will  be  con- 
fiscatory. 

Now,  I  think  I  may  omit  reading  the  next  part  of  my  statement  because  it  has 
been  covered  by  the  Secretary's  testimony  [on  tax  burdens  on  the  lower  income 
groups,  page  419.1 

(b)  Capacity  to  pay. — A  second  contention  is  that  the  American  people  do  not 
have  the  capacity  to  pay  additional  income  taxes.  The  facts  contradict  this 
contention.  Individual  incomes  after  personal  taxes  amounted  to  $65,000,000,000 
in  the  fiscal  year  1939  and  are  expected  to  amount  to  $126,000,000,000  in  the 
fiscal  year  1944.  The  corresponding  figures  before  subtracting  personal  taxes 
are  $68,000,000,000  and  $148,000,000,000.  In  other  words,  personal  taxes  show 
an  increase  of  $19,000,000,000  while  incomes  before  taxes  show  an  increase  of 
$80,000,000,000.  Less  than  one-fourth  of  the  increase  in  annual  income  payments 
generated  by  defense  and  war  activities  is  being  absorbed  by  taxes. 

In  an  attempt  to  prove  that  American  taxes  are  too  high,  it  is  argued  that  taxes 
in  the  United  States  are  higher  in  terms  of  dollars  per  capita  than  in  the  United 
Kingdom  and  Canada."  This  argument  is,  of  course,  grossly  misleading,  since 
it  gives  absolutely  no  indication  oif  real  burdens.  How  burdensome  a  given  tax 
will  be  is  determined  by  the  ratio  of  the  tax  to  the  income  from  which  the  tax  is 
paid.  Personal  incomes  here  are  larger  than  in  either  Canada  or  Great  Britain. 
Furthermore,  the  rates  of  income  tax  and  excise  taxes  are  higher  in  the  Allied 
countries  than  here.  Practically  any  citizen  of  the  United  States,  if  given  the 
choice  of  paying  American,  Canadian,  or  British  taxes,  would  choose  the  American 
tax  system,  since  his  tax  here  would  be  the  lowest. 

(c)  The  argument  of  confiscation. — In  connection  with  the  argument  that  taxes 
will  exceed  capacity  to  pay,  it  is  contended  that  our  existing  income  tax  rates 
are  confiscatory.  Those  who  make  this  contention  point  to  the  combined  burden 
of  current  taxes,  uncanceled  1942  liabilities,  and  State  income  taxes.  It  is  said 
that  this  combination  will  exceed  100  percent  of  income  in  1944. 


'  Persons  with  net  incomes  of  less  than  $5,000  would  pay  3.5  billion  dollars  out  of  the  total  of  6.5  billion 
dollars  additional  income  tax  under  the  Treasury  proposal  of  October  4;  3.9  billion  dollars  out  of  6.7  billion 
dollars  under  alternative  proposal  A;  and  4.4  billion  dollars  out  of  6.8  billion  dollars  under  alternative 
proposal  B. 

8  This  disallowance  was  recommended  by  the  Treasury.  At  present,  the  allowance  of  deductions  under 
sec.  23  (c)  is  inconsistent  and  depends  entirely  on  the  legal  laneuage  used  in  imposing  the  tax.  For  e.x- 
ample,  admissions  taxes  are  allowed  as  deductions,  but  the  cabaret  tax  is  not.  Uniformity  in  the  matter 
of  deductibility  is  desirable.  Revenue,  administrative,  and  equity  considerations  also  suggest  disallowance 
of  these  taxes  insofar  as  they  constitute  personal  expenses.

426       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Such  statements  are  grossly  misleading.  They  ignore  two  facts.  The  first 
is  that  the  Federal  income  tax  allows  for  the  deduction  of  State  income  taxes  in 
computing  net  income.  This  deduction  protects  the  taxpayer  from  a  confiscatory 
combination  of  State  and  Federal  taxes,  even  if  the  State  tax  does  not  permit  the 
deduction  of  the  Federal  tax. 

The  second  fallacy  lies  in  comparing  2  years'  taxes,  or  1}^  3'ear's  taxes,  with  1 
year's  income.  The  uncanceled  part  of  the  1942  tax  is  in  no  sense  a  tax  on  1944 
income.  This  becomes  entirely  clear  when  it  is  realized  that  a  person  having  no 
1942  income  has  no  uncanceled  tax  to  pay  in  1944,  and  would  therefore  not  be 
covered  by  the  schedules  combining  the  2  years'  taxes.  As  a  matter  of  fact, 
when  the  taxes  for  2  years  are  combined  with  the  net  income  for  2  years,  as  they 
should  be,  it  becomes  apparent  that  the  75  percent  cancelation  is  a  windfall 
which  has  made  it  easier,  not  harder,  to  pay  taxes  on  1944  income. 

D.  Corporation  Taxes 

The  Treasury  suggested  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  (a)  that  the  surtax 
on  larger  corporations  (those  with  net  income  in  excess  of  $25,000)  be  increased  by 
10  percentage  points  and  on  smaller  corporations  by  4  percentage  points;  (6)  that 
no  change  be  made  in  the  excess-profits  tax  rates;  and  (c)  that  certain  changes  be 
made  in  the  existing  provisions  for  carry-back  of  losses  and  unused  excess-profits 
credits.  The  Treasury  proposals  would  increase  corporate  tax  revenues  by  $1,138 
million. 

The  bill  passed  by  the  House  (a)  makes  no  change  in  the  surtax  rate;  (b)  raises 
the  excess-profits  tax  rate  to  95  percent;  (c)  reduces  the  excess-profits  credit  for 
some  corporations  by  lowering  the  percentages  allowed  on  invested  capital;  (d) 
raises  the  specific  exemption  for  excess-profits  taxes  from  $5,000  to  $10,000;  (e) 
makes  no  change  in  the  carry-back  of  losses  and  unused  excess-profits  credits;  and 
(/)  provides  special  tax  treatment  for  certain  natural  resources  industries.  The 
House  bill  increases  corporate  tax  revenues  by  $468  million.  I  should  like  to 
discuss  these  matters  in  detail. 

1.    COMPARATIVE    EFFECTS    OF    INCREASES    IN    SURTAX    AND    INCREASES    IN    EXCESS- 
PROFITS    TAX 

Unlike  an  increase  in  surtax  rates,  which  would  increase  the  net  tax  liability 
(after  post-war  credit)  of  all  taxpaying  corporations,  the  increase  in  the  excess- 
profits  tax  rate  under  H.  R.  3687  will  increase  liabilities  for  comparatively  few 
corporations.  Corporations  not  subject  to  the  excess-profits  tax  and  those  already 
subject  to  the  80  percent  ceiling  on  corporate  taxes  will  have  no  added  tax  to  pa  v. 
Of  263,000  taxable  corporate  returns  estimated  for  1944,  71,000,  or  about''27 
percent  will  be  subject  to  excess-profits  tax.  Moreover,  the  80  percent  ceiling 
will  apply  to  4,300  corporations  or  approximately  6  percent  of  all  excess-profits 
taxpayers.  This  6  percent,  however,  will  pay  about  40  percent  of  total  excess- 
profits  taxes  in  1944.  An  additional  3,200  corporations  will  become  subject  to 
the  80  percent  ceiling  as  a  result  of  the  5-percentage-point  increase  in  the  excess- 
profits  tax  rate.  The  effect  will  be  to  limit  still  further  the  range  of  corporations 
to  whom  the  full  increase  would  apply.  It  would  apply  only  to  the  residual  class, 
namely,  corporations  that  pay  excess-profits  taxes,  but  will  not  become  subject 
to  the  80  percent  tax  ceiling. 

In  contrast  with  the  House  bill,  the  Treasury  proposal  would  increase  the  net 
liability  of  all  corporations.  For  those  subject  to  the  80  percent  ceiling,  an  in- 
crease in  the  surtax  would  mean  a  decrease  in  the  share  of  their  80  percent  tax 
represented  by  excess-profits  taxes.  As  a  result,  their  post-war  credit  would  be 
smaller  and  their  liabilities  correspondingly  larger,  even  though  their  gross  tax 
payments  were  unaffected.  For  all  other  corporations,  both  the  gross  payment 
and  the  net  liability  would  be  increased. 

From  the  foregoing  analysis  it  is  apparent  on  the  one  hand  that  the  House  bill 
will  not  strike  corporate  profits  generally,  but  only  a  restricted  segment  of  cor- 
porate profits.  On  the  other  hand,  it  will  not  strike  approximately  one-half  of 
the  excess  profits,  nor  will  it  touch  the  most  profitable  corporations.  To  reach 
corporate  profits  generally,  an  increase  in  surtax  rates  would  be  necessary.  To 
reach  the  bulk  of  excess  profits  and  the  most  profitable  corporations,  added 
excess-profits  taxes  would  have  to  be  coupled  with  an  upward  revision  of  the 
80  percent  limitation. 

Because  of  its  broad  coverage,  the  corporate  surtax  affords  an  instrument  for 
tapping  war  profits  that  are  not  defined  as  excess  profits  in  our  tax  law.  At  best, 
it  is  extremely  difficult  to  single  out  excess  profits  and  war  profits  by  legal  defini- 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       427 

tion.  An  excess-profits  tax  cannot  be  a  perfect  instrument;  a  90  percent  or  a  95 
percent  excess-profits  tax  rate  does  not  mean  that  the  Government  will  recapture 
90  or  95  percent  of  the  war  profits  of  corporations.  In  the  area  labeled  "normal 
profits"  there  are  bound  to  be  some  war  profits.  For  example,  many  corporations 
with  large  invested  capital  but  low  normal  earnings,  receive  substantial  war  profits 
without  becoming  subject  to  excess-profits  taxes.  The  same  is  true  of  corporations 
with  high  base-period  earnings  now  engaged  in  the  production  of  war  materials. 
Other  corporations  have  had  their  excess-profits  tax  liabilities  substantially  re- 
duced by  the  special  relief  provision  in  the  tax  law.  Still  others  will  ultimately 
have  a  substantial  proportion  of  their  excess-profits  taxes  refunded  to  them  under 
the  operation  of  the  carry-back  provisions. 

The  surtax  thus  off'ers  greater  assurance  that  all  corporations  which  have  bene- 
fited from  the  war  will  make  an  additional  tax  contribution. 

A  further  reason  in  favor  of  a  surtax  rate  increase,  as  distinguished  from  an 
excess-profits  tax  rate  increase,  may  be  found  in  the  comparative  effect  on  man- 
agerial profit  incentives.  Financial  incentives  to  efficient  management  depend 
upon  the  number  of  cents  the  corporation  retains  out  of  each  additional  dollar  of 
profit.  The  House  bill  would  increase  the  net  tax  (after  post-war  credit)  on  each 
dollar  of  excess-profits  from  81  to  85'/^  cents.  Under  the  Treasury  proposal  for 
an  increase  in  surtax  rates,  not  more  than  50  cents  would  ordinarily  be  taken  out 
of  each  doUar  of  normal  profits,  and  the  present  figure  of  81  cents  for  excess  profits 
would  not  be  touched.^"  The  increase  in  surtax  proposed  by  the  Treasury  is  less 
likely  to  impair  financial  incentives  than  would  an  increase  in  the  excess-profits 
tax  rate.  With  corporate  rates  at  their  present  levels,  the  impact  on  incentives 
cannot  be  ignored  in  making  tax  decisions. 

The  Treasury  agrees  that  our  corporations  should  be  kept  "in  a  sound  financial 
condition  so  that  they  may  be  able  to  convert  to  peacetime  production  and  pro- 
vide employment  for  men  leaving  the  armed  forces  after  the  war."  "  But  figures 
on  corporate  earnings,  dividends,  and  accumulations  make  it  clear  that  added 
taxes  can  be  levied  without  unduly  burdening  profits  and  profit  incentives,  and 
without  impairing  the  sound  financial  condition  of  corporations  generally.  Cor- 
porate profits  (excluding  dividends  received)  will  reach  an  estimated  level  of 
$22.6  billion  for  1943.  This  is  more  than  four  times  the  corporate  profits  for  the 
year  1937,  one  of  the  most  prosperous  years  of  the  thirties.  Taxes  have  also  risen 
sharply  during  this  period,  both  because  of  increases  in  corporate  income  and 
because  of  increases  in  rates.  But  they  have  failed  to  keep  pace  with  earnings. 
In  1937,  corporations  had  left  less  than  $4,000,000,000,  after  paying  one  and  one- 
fourth  billion  dollars  of  taxes.  In  1943,  corporations  will  have  left  nearly  $9.2 
billion,  even  after  paying  $13.5  billion  of  taxes.  In  1944,  corporate  profits,  after 
taxes  at  present  rates  are  expected  to  reach  $9.9  billion,  or  three  times  the  average 
annual  profits  after  taxes  from  1936  through  1939. 

Figures  on  dividends  and  undistributed  profits  are  also  impressive.  Average 
dividends  from  1936  to  1940  were  $4.1  billion,  1937  being  the  peak  year,  when 
$4.8  billion  were  distributed.'-  In  spite  of  war  taxes,  dividends  for  1941,  1942, 
and  1943  are  estimated  at  $4.5  billion,  $4.1  billion,  and  $4  biUion,  respectively. 
It  is  estimated  that  even  after  paying  taxes  and  dividends,  American  corporations 
win  accumulate  over  $12,000,000,000  of  undistributed  profits  for  the  3  years  1941, 
1942,  and  1943. 

Recent  studies  show  that  liquid  assets  of  corporations  have  risen  even  faster 
than  retained  earnings.  Nonfinancial  corporations  increased  their  holdings  of 
currency,  bank  deposits,  and  United  States  Government  securities  by  $12,000,- 
000,000  during  the  two  years  1941  and  1942  according  to  an  estimate  prepared 
by  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  If  the  accumulation  of  liquid  assets 
in  the  first  half  of  1943  should  continue  at  the  present  rate  through  the  year,  the 
total  increase  would  be  $25,000,000,000  for  the  3  years  1941,  1942,  and  1943.  A 
study  just  released  by  the  Federal  Reserve  Board  indicates  that  business  deposits, 
both  corporate  and  noncorporate,  totalled  $30,000,000,000  on  July  31,  1943. 

It  is  recognized  that  the  combined  corporate  and  individual  taxes  on  dividend 
income  are  higher  in  this  country  than  in  England  and  in  Canada,  and  that  steps 
must  be  taken  after  the  war  to  relieve  corporate  stockholders  of  their  dispropor- 
tionate tax  burden.  However,  so  long  as  the  war  continues  and  corporations  gen- 
erally are  able  to  maintain  present  abnormally  high  levels  of  earnings,  the  discrimi- 
nation against  this  class  of  income  recipient  will  continue  to  be  more  apparent  than 


11  Corporations  with  income  between  $25,000  and  $50,000  will,  of  course,  be  subject  to  higher  marginal 
surtax  rates  as  a  result  of  the  notch  provision.

"  Dividend  payments  in  1936  and  1937  are  generally  conceded  to  have  been  abnormally  high  as  a  result 
of  the  undistributed  profits  tax  in  effect  during  those  years.

real.     The  taxation  of  the  excessive  profits  of  corporations  imposes  no  real  burden 
on  corporate  stockholders. 

I  have  indicated  why  the  Treasury  prefers  to  raise  additional  revenue  by  means 
of  an  increase  in  surtax  rather  than  an  increase  in  excess-profits  tax.  However,  if 
your  committee  should  decide  in  favor  of  an  increase  in  the  excess-profits  tax  rate, 
the  Treasury  suggests  an  upward  revision  of  the  80  percent  limitation  on  corporate 
taxes.  Without  this  revision  the  increase  in  excess-profits  tax  rates  will  reach  only 
a  limited  range  of  excess  profits.i^ 

2.   CHANGES  IN  EXCESS-PROFITS  TAX  EXEMPTIONS   AND   CREDITS  UNDER  THE    HOUSE 

BILL 

The  House  bill  provides  for  an  increase  from  $5,000  to  $10,000  in  the  specific 
excess-profits  tax  exemption.'*  This  provision,  which  was  recommended  by  the 
Treasury  last  year,  will  distribute  the  excess-profits  tax  burden  more  equitably 
between  large  and  small  business  enterprises. 

The  profits  of  small  business  are  likely  to  fluctuate  more  widely  than  profits  of 
large  business.  Base-period  earnings  under  the  average-earnings  method  are, 
therefore,  a  less  reliable  index  of  normal  earnings  for  small  business  than  for  large. 
An  increase  in  exemption  tends  to  avoid  a  penalty  on  extreme  fluctuations  of 
earnings  without  forcing  a  resort  to  the  relief  provisions  of  section  722. 

Moreover,  profits  of  small  business  are  more  likely  to  reflect  a  return  on  man- 
agerial efl'orts  than  a  return  on  invested  capital.  Consequently,  the  increased 
exemption  also  aids  small  corporations  using  the  invested  capital  base  for  deter- 
mining excess  profits. 

The  Treasury  also  agrees  with  the  provisions  reducing  by  1  percentage  point 
the  invested  capital  credit  in  each  of  the  brackets  above  $5,000,000.  Invested 
capital  is  generally  used  as  a  base  for  computing  excess-profits  credits  only  by 
those  corporations  which  earned  a  low  rate  of  return  during  the  base  period. 
Where  such  earnings  were  abnormally  low,  corporations  are  protected  by  the 
remedy  in  section  722.  But  corporations  the  base-period  earnings  of  which  were 
normally  low  should  not  be  provided  an  escape  from  taxes  on  war-increased  profits. 
Since  a  large  invested  capital  credit  unrelated  to  base-period  earnings  tends  to 
provide  such  an  escape,  the  proposed  reduction  will  reduce  an  unfair  advantage 
gained  by  large  corporations  having  a  history  of  low  normal  earnings. 

The  proposed  reduction  of  the  invested  capital  credit  will  also  reduce  the 
advantage  gained  by  large  corporations  on  borrowed  capital.  Because  50  percent 
of  borrowed  capital  is  inchided  in  invested  capital,  corporations  can  get  a  tax 
advantage  by  borrowing  at  rates  of  interest  below  the  percentages  allowed  on 
invested  capital.  The  large  corporation  generall}'  has  a  higher  credit  standing 
than  the  small  and  therefore  gets  larger  tax  benefits  from  borrowing  than  the  small 
corporation.  This  advantage  will  be  reduced  by  the  reduction  in  percentage 
allowances  on  invested  capital. 

3.    SPECIFIC  RELIEF  MEASURES  IN  THE  HOUSE  BILL 

The  House  bill  provides  special  tax  treatment  for  certain  mine  owners  and 
operators.  It  extends  percentage  depletion  and  excess-profits  tax  exemption  to 
several  minerals  as  a  means  of  stimulating  their  wartime  production.  Insofar 
as  these  fall  within  the  category  of  strategic  minerals  designated  by  the  War 
Production  Board,  the  Treasury  concurs  with  tax  measures  which  will  accelerate 
their  output.  But  for  minerals  not  so  designated  it  is  believed  that  the  proposed 
treatment  is  unwarranted.  A  further  statement  on  the  Treasury  position  is 
contained  in  appendix  D. 

The  House  bill  also  extends  to  the  natural  gas  industry  the  special  excess-profits 
tax  treatment  now  granted  with  respect  to  the  accelerated  output  of  depletable 
natural  resources.  Insofar  as  this  treatment  is  extended  to  nonproducers  of 
natural  gas,  this  provision  in  the  House  bill  appears  to  be  undesirable.  This  point 
is  further  developed  in  appendix  E.  This  appendix  also  contains  a  statement  of 
the  Treasury  position  with  respect  to  the  broadening  of  the  excess-profits  tax 
relief  for  coal  and  iron  miners  and  timber  tracts. 

Tax  relief  measures  can  serve  very  useful  purposes.  But  unless  they  are 
handled  very  carefully,  they  may  simply  become  tax  loopholes.     If  tax  relief  is

tions not  subject  to  the  tax  ceiling  and  those  which  are  subject  to  the  tax  ceiling.  In  appendix  C  to  this 
statement,  there  are  outlined  three  alternative  methods  of  revising  the  80  percent  limitation  to  gain  these 
advantages,  which  would  still  prevent  net  corporate  taxes  from  exceeding  SOjpercent  of  net  income.

distributed  without  regard  to  need,  it  deprives  the  Government  of  much  needed 
revenue,  and  distributes  tax  burdens  inequitably  among  business  enterprises.  It 
must  not  be  forgotten  that  reduction  in  the  tax  liabilities  of  especially  favored 
taxpayers  means  increased  tax  burdens  on  all  other  taxpayers. 

4.    ACQUISITIONS  TO  AVOID  INCOME  OR  EXCESS-PROFITS  TAX 

At  this  point  I  would  like  to  discuss  one  technical  amendment  which  is  of  major 
importance.  Section  115  of  the  House  bill  is  intended  to  curb  the  development 
of  a  public  market  in  which  alleged  tax  benefits  may  be  bought  and  sold.  The 
currently  advertised  schemes  are  designed  to  enable  a  taxpayer  with  large  war 
profits  to  avoid  income  and  excess-profits  taxes  by  purchasing  for  such  purpose 
a  losing  or  defunct  corporation  having  large  current,  past,  or  prospective  losses, 
deficits,  or  large  current  or  unused  profits  credits.  The  utilization  and  adver- 
tisement of  such  devices  has  disturbed  responsible  taxpayers  and  their  attorneys 
who  have  refused  to  use  these  schemes.  It  is  also  disturbing  to  the  Government 
in  its  effort  to  administer  the  revenue  laws  equitably  and  uniformly. 

The  amendment  disallows  the  part  of  the  deduction  or  credit  involved  in  the 
tax  avoidance  device,  but  only  if  the  acquisition  of  an  interest  in  or  control  of  a 
corporation  or  property  has  occurred  on  or  after  October  8,  1940,  and  then  only 
if  one  of  the  principal  purposes  "for  which  (the)  *  *  *  acquisition  was  made 
or  availed  of  is  the  avoidance  of  *  *  *  tax  by  securing  the  benefit  of"  such 
deduction  or  credit.  The  amendment  is  directed  solely  at  those  devices  which 
distort  or  pervert  the  natural  business  relationship  between  a  deduction  or  credit 
and  the  enterprise  which  produced  it,  and  for  the  benefit  of  which  the  deduction 
or  credit  was  provided  by  law.  The  gist  of  the  distortion  is  the  circumstance  that 
such  natural  relationship  has  in  whole  or  in  part  ceased,  and  that  a  taxpayer  seeks 
to  use  the  deduction  or  credit  as  an  off'set  to  the  profits  of  an  enterprise  to  which 
the  deduction  or  credit  does  not  bear  a  reasonable  business  relationship.  The 
amendment  in  no  way  abridges  the  privilege  of  doing  business  in  individual, 
partnership,  or  corporate  form,  or  the  privilege  of  filing  a  separate  or  a  consoli- 
dated return,  or  any  of  the  numerous  choices  which  the  structure  of  the  tax  system 
is  intended  to  afford.  But  the  amendment  does  operate  whenever  under  any  of 
these  privileges  or  choices  such  a  distortion  or  perversion  of  a  deduction  or  credit 
appears.  Hence  the  scope  of  the  amendment  in  its  field  is  precisely  the  same  as 
that  of  sections  45  and  141  of  the  present  law,  where  analogous  distortions  or 
perversions  have  been  frequently  described  by  the  committee  as  "milking"  or 
shifting  of  deductions  and  credits.  The  Treasury  believes  with  the  House  that 
the  amendment  is  a  significant  part  of  an  equitable  tax  structure  and  that  it  is  well 
adapted  to  accomplish  its  purpose. 

E.  Estate  and  Gift  Taxes 

In  seeking  sources  of  additional  wartime  revenue,  we  cannot  afford  to  overlook 
estate  and  gift  taxes.  Increases  in  these  taxes  have  not  kept  pace  with  tax 
increases  generally.  Small  as  their  relative  contribution  to  the  total  has  been  in 
the  past,  it  has  fallen  during  the  war.  Estate  and  gift  tax  collections  for  the 
fiscal  year  1944  are  expected  to  represent  a  smaller  proportion  of  total  tax  receipts 
than  at  any  time  during  the  past  10  years. 

In  a  period  when  huge  additional  revenues  are  needed,  the  beneficiaries  of 
estates  and  gifts  should  contribute  their  full  share  to  the  cost  of  the  war  along 
with  other  groups  of  taxpayers.  Yet,  relatively  few  estates  are  subject  to  tax, 
and  rates  in  the  lower  and  middle  brackets  continue  to  be  moderate.  The 
Treasury  has,  therefore,  recommended  that  the  estate  tax  exemption  be  reduced 
from  $60,000  to  $40,000  and  that  estate  tax  rates  be  raised.  '*  Corresponding 
increases  in  the  gift  tax  are  also  suggested.  These  changes  would  add  $400,000,000 
to  our  revenues  on  a  full-year  basis.  The  proposed  changes  in  the  estate  and  gift 
tax  provisions  should  be  permanent,  rather  than  simply  for  the  duration  of  the 
war.  15 


15  Two  technical  estate  and  gift  tax  provisions  of  the  House  bill  deserve  comment.  As  passed  by  the 
House,  the  bill  contains  an  estate  tax  amendment  which  provides  that  in  valuing  stock  or  securities  the 
value  of  which  cannot  be  determined  by  reference  to  bid  and  asked  prices  or  to  sales  prices  by  reason  of 
the  absence  of  listing  for  sales,  there  shall  be  considered,  in  addition  to  all  other  factors,  the  value  of  stock 
or  securities  of  comparable  corporations  which  are  listed  on  an  exchange.  It  is  believed  that  this  amend- 
ment is  highly  undesirable  because  it  can  only  lead  to  continuous,  unnecessary  and  costly  litigation,  and 
harbors  dangerous  potentialities  for  imposing  unjust  tax  burdens  upon  the  recipients  of  closely  held  stock. 

The  House  bill  also  provides  that  in  certain  instances  the  appointment  of  a  trustee,  the  vesting  of  dis- 
cretion in  a  trustee  as  to  the  selection  of  beneficiaries  or  the  distribution  of  benefits,  or  the  exercise  by  a  trustee 
of  such  discretion  shall  not  bo  deemed  a  taxable  gift.  This  provision  is  completely  divorced  from  any 
reasonable  classification  of  trusts  and  is  enmeshed  in  ambiguities  which  can  only  produce  manifold  adminis- 
trative difficulties  and  increase  the  litigation  burden  of  taxpayers. 


430       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

I  should  like  to  report  to  the  committee  that  the  Treasury  is  now  making  an 
extensive  study  of  all  phases  of  estate  and  gift  taxation.  For  example,  we  are 
investigating  the  possibility  of  integrating  the  estate  and  gift  taxes  and  correlating 
them  with  the  income  tax.  An  advisory  committee,  comprising  some  of  the  lead- 
ing tax  practitioners  in  the  estate  and  gift  tax  field,  is  aiding  us  in  this  study.  It  is 
hoped  that  the  study  wiU  lead  to  recommendations  which  will  simplify  these  taxes 
and  make  them  more  effective  and  more  equitable.  It  is  anticipated  that  this 
study  will  be  completed  before  the  Congress  considers  the  next  tax  bill. 

F.  Excise  Taxes 

The  Treasury  recommended  that  an  additional  $2.5  billion  be  raised  through 
increases  in  the  rates  and  changes  in  the  base  of  several  existing  excise  taxes  and 
through  the  enactment  of  two  new  excises.  It  is  further  recommended  by  the 
Treasury  that  the  tax  on  transportation  of  property  be  repealed.  In  selecting 
specific  items  for  heavier  taxation  and  in  setting  the  proposed  rates,  the  Treasury 
gave  careful  consideration  to  the  demand  and  supply  conditions  in  affected  indus- 
tries and  to  the  impact  on  producers  and  consumers.  The  $2.5  billion  excise  tax 
recommendation  was  designed  to  be  a  part  of  a  balanced  over-all  program. 

Selected  excises  have  much  to  commend  them  as  a  source  of  wartime  revenue. 
They  involve  little  increase  in  administrative  machinery  and  compliance  costs. 
At  the  same  time,  in  most  cases  the  higher  levies  would  be  shifted  to  consumers, 
thus  avoiding  undue  burdens  on  business  concerns.  Since  only  a  few  nonessentials 
are  affected,  and  since  the  tax  can  be  avoided  or  reduced  by  cutting  consumption 
of  the  taxed  items,  the  excises  will  not  cause  hardship  for  consumers. 

Excise  taxes  are  far  superior  to  a  sales  tax.  They  involve  only  a  small  fraction 
of  the  administrative  and  compliance  effort  demanded  by  a  sales  tax.  Second, 
they  bear  on  nonessentials  rather  than  necessities.  Third,  they  support  rather 
than  jeopardize  the  Government  program  to  stabilize  the  cost  of  living. 

For  an  elaboration  of  the  points  just  made,  I  should  like  to  refer  you  to  ap- 
pendix F.  This  appendix  also  compares  the  Treasury  excise  tax  proposals  with 
the  House  bill  provisions,  analyzes  those  provisions,  and  indicates  why  it  is  desir- 
able to  terminate  excise  tax  exemptions  on  sales  to  the  Federal  Government,  as 
recommended  by  the  President. 

G.  Renegotiation  of  Contracts 

I  think  the  agencies  principally  concerned  may  wish  to  present  their  views  on 
the  renegotiation  provisions  of  the  House  bill.  However,  I  should  like  to  present 
the  Treasury  position  on  one  of  the  renegotiation  provisions  that  vitally  affects 
the  revenue  system.  I  refer  to  the  provision  permitting  aggrieved  contractors  to 
secure  a  redetermination  of  excessive  profits  by  The  Tax  Court  of  the  United 
States.  I  think  it  cannot  be  too  strongly  emphasized  that  the  choice  of  The  Tax 
Court  as  a  forum  for  renegotiation  litigation  is  an  unwise  one.  For  many  years 
it  has  been  recognized  that  the  volume  and  complexity  of  Federal  tax  cases 
require  a  specially  qualified  and  skilled  tribunal,  such  as  The  Tax  Court,  which 
shall  devote  its  entire  time  and  efforts  to  their  consideration  and  disposition. 
This  need  threatens  to  become  even  more  pressing  after  the  war.  The  inevitable 
accumulation  of  cases  during  the  war  and  the  development  of  many  excess- 
profits  tax  cases,  particularly  those  arising  under  the  general  relief  provisions  of 
section  722,  make  it  obvious  that  The  Tax  Court  faces  a  possible  post-war  crisis, 
without  the  addition  of  complex  renegotiation-of-contracts  issues  to  its  calendar. 

The  renegotiation  statute  is  not  a  taxing  statute,  but  this  proposal  would  tend 
to  confuse  renegotiation  with  taxes.  It  is  also  to  be  recognized  that  renegotiation 
cases,  under  the  terms  of  the  House  amendments,  will  demand  a  large  part  of  the 
time  of  any  tribunal.  Many  issues  will  be  presented,  often  difficult  of  proof; 
take  for  example  the  issue  of  a  large  contractor's  efficiency  or  lack  of  it,  which 
might  occupy  the  court  for  weeks.  It  seems  inevitable  that  few  cases  will  be 
susceptible  of  quick  disposition. 

It  is  my  very  firm  conviction  that  if  the  trial  of  renegotiation  cases  is  added  to 
the  task  that  will  confront  The  Tax  Court,  the  prompt  collection  of  revenue 
will  be  impaired,  the  rights  of  the  Government  and  of  taxpaj'ers  will  be  prejudiced, 
and  the  deservedly  high  reputation  of  the  Court  may  greatly  suffer.  Any  im- 
pairment of  the  reputation  and  efficiency  of  the  Court  would  constitute  a  most 
serious  blow  to  the  proper  administration  of  the  tax  law. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY

H.  Conclusion 

This  statement  has  dealt  kirgely  with  the  teclmical  aspects  of  tlie  Treasury 
proposals  and  the  House  bill.  I  believed  that  I  could  be  o.f  most  assistance  to  the 
committee  by  concentrating  on  these  aspects  of  the  pending  bill. 

I  have  given  special  emphasis  to  simplification  because  of  the  crucial  necessity 
of  simplifying  our  tax  laws.  Unnecessary  complications  can  put  our  entire  war- 
time income  tax  program  in  jeopardy. 

I  hope  that  the  committee  will  not  misunderstand  my  emphasis  upon  simplifica- 
tion and  technical  matters.  Total  war  makes  broad  demands  on  our  tax  system. 
Present  taxes  do  not  meet  these  demands,  either  in  terms  of  paying  for  the  war 
as  we  go,  or  in  terms  of  combating  inflation.  The  legacy  of  taxes  at  present  levels 
will  be  not  only  a  huge  debt,  but  may  also  be  a  demoralized  price  structure  both 
during  and  after  the  war.  The  growth  of  the  public  debt,  and  the  imminence  of 
inflation,  force  the  conclusion  that  the  Treasury's  10.5  billion  dollars  additional 
revenue  goal  is  much  nearer  the  minimum  than  the  maximum  demanded  by  total 
war.

Note.— Figures  are  rounded  and  will  not  necessarily  add  to  totals. 

1  The  estimates  are  intended  to  reflect  the  net  improvement  in  the  Budget  position  of  the  United  States 
resulting  from  the  revenue  measures  contained  in  the  bill.  Therefore,  the  portion  of  the  bill  which  increases 
Federal  receipts  and  expenditures  to  the  same  extent  by  terminating  certain  governmental  excise  tax  exemp- 
tions (Title  III,  sec.  307,  of  the  bill)  does  not  increase  the  present  estimate  of  the  net  yield  of  the  bill  over 
present  law.  ^  Collections  for  credit  to  trust  funds  are  not  included. 

3  These  estimates  are  after  allowances  for  drawbacks  of  .$19.7  millions  under  the  proposal  and  of  !fl4.8  mil- 
lions under  present  law. 

■1  Excludes  noin-eeurring  collectionof  (ax  on  floor  stocks  held  on  Jan.  1,  1944,  the  effective  date  of  the 
revenue  bill  of  1943,  in  the  amount  of  $63  millions.  6  Less  than  $0.05  million. 

6  The  tax  on  luggage  has  been  changid  from  a  manufacturers'  excise  to  a  retailers'  excise  tax. 

7  Includes  the  effects  of  H.  R.  3338,  Public  Law  180,  approved  Nov.  4,  1943. 

8  Includes  collections  from:  Taxes  on  narcotics;  taxes  under  the  National  Firearms  Act;  and  the  tax  on 
hydraulic  mining,  all  of  which  are  effective  currently.  In  addition  includes  collections  from  repealed  taxes 
not  reinstated  by  the  Revenue  Act  of  1941  and  collections  from  the  following  excise  taxes  repealed  by  the 
Revenue  Act  of  1942:  Rubber  articles,  electric  signs,  optical  equipment,  and  washing  machines. 

»  The  increase  of  postal  revenues,  estimated  at  $183.8  millions,  will  add  to  any  surplus  or  reduce  any  deficit 
in  postal  operations  that  may  exist.  Only  the  net  surplus,  if  any,  from  postal  operations  will  be  reflected 
in  miscellaneous  receiiJts.  It  is  assumed  that  the  postal  surplus  under  present  law  in  the  calendar  year  1944 
wOl  be  $3.5  millions,  the  same  as  was  estimated  in  the  Budget  of  the  U.  S.  Government  for  the  fiscal  year 
ending  June  30,  1944. 

Estimated  change  in  the  Budget  position  of  the  United  States  resulting  from  the  revenue  bill  of  1943  {H.  R.  3687), 
as  passed  by  the  House  of  Representatives  Nov.  24,  1943,  for  a  full  year  of  operation  at  levels  of  income  esti- 
mated for  the  calendar  year  1944  '  TmrrfrKif  mer

1  Under  each  of  the  proposals,  the  Victory  tax  and  earued-income  credit  are  eliminated  and  the  exemp- 
tions are  $500,  $1,100,  and  $300. 


APPENDIX  A.    SUMMARY 


COMPARISON    OF    THE 
THE  HOUSE  BILL 


TREASURY    PROPOSALS    WITH 


It  may  be  helpful  to  the  committee  to  compare  in  summary  form  the  major 
provisions  of  the  Treasury  proposals  with  those  of  the  House  bill  as  background 
for  its  consideration  of  that  bill.  While  the  Treasury  proposals  rely  heavily  on 
the  individual  income  tax  for  additional  revenue,  the  income  tax  changes  in  the 
House  bill  are  designed  primarily  to  integrate  the  Victory  tax  with  the  income  tax 
Both  would  repeal  the  Victory  tax  and  the  earned-income  credit.  The  Treasury 
proposal  would  effect  a  small  reduction  in  the  credit  for  dependents  and  the  exemp- 
tion for  married  persons;  it  would  increase  surtax  rates  substantially,  both  to  re- 
place the  Victory  tax  and  to  increase  revenues.  The  House  bill  imposes  a  3  per- 
cent minimum  tax  with  lower  exemptions  than  the  regular  tax;  it  also  increases 
normal  tax  rates  and  adjusts  surtax  rates,  primarily,  in  order  to  replace  the  Victory 
tax  burden. 

The  Treasury  recommended  increases  in  corporate  surtax  rates,  but  no  change 
in  the  amount  of  excess-profits  taxes.  The  House  bill  does  not  change  surtax 
rates.  It  increases  the  revenue  from  excess-profits  taxes  by  increasing  the  rate 
from  90  to  95  percent  and  by  making  changes  in  the  excess-profits  credit. 

The  Treasury  recommended  an  increase  in  estate  and  gift  tax  rates  and  a  reduc- 
tion in  exemptions.     The  House  bill  does  not  change  the  estate  and  gift  taxes. 

In  the  case  of  excise  taxes,  the  House  bill  differs  from  the  Treasury's  recom- 
mendations in  that  (1)  it  does  not  increase  tobacco  taxes,  (2)  it  does  not  tax  soft 
drinks,  candy,  and  chewing  gum,  (3)  its  rate  increases  generally  are  lower  than 
those  recommended,  and  (4)  it  retains  the  tax  on  transportation  of  property. 

Finally,  the  House  bill  provides  for  increases  in  postal  rates  on  which  the  Treas- 
ury made  no  recommendations. 


APPENDIX  B.    INTEGRATION    OF    THE    VICTORY    TAX    WITH    THE    INCOME    TAX 
UNDER  THE  HOUSE   BILL   AND  THE  TREASURY  INTEGRATION   PROPOSAL,  COM- 
PARED WITH  PRESENT  LAW 

1.  Both  integration  plans,  the  one  contained  in  the  House  bill  and  the  Treasury 
proposal,  would  repeal  the  Victory  tax  and  the  earned-income  credit.  The  House 
bill  increases  the  normal  tax  rate  from  6  percent  to  10  percent,  reduces  the  surtax 
rates  by  1  percentage  point  in  some  brackets  and  increases  them  by  1  to  3  percent- 
age points  in  others.  A  taxpayer  would  be  required  to  pay  the  tax  computed  on 
the  basis  of  these  changes  but  not  less  than  a  minimum  tax  of  3  percent  on  net 
income  in  excess  of  exemptions  of  $500  for  a  single  person  or  a  married  person  filing 
a  separate  return,  $700  for  a  married  couple  filing  a  joint  return,  and  $100  for  each 
dependent.  Under  the  Treasury  integration  proposal  exemptions  are  reduced 
from  $500,  $1,200,  and  $350  to  $500,  $1,100  and  $300,  and  the  surtax  rates  are 
increased  by  3  to  7  percentage  points. 


438       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

2.  The  administration  of  the  income  tax  would  be  much  easier  under  the  simpler 
Treasury  integration  plan  than  under  the  House  bill.  For  one  thing,  there  would 
be  a  large  reduction  in  the  number  of  returns  involving  a  small  amount  of  tax. 
Under  the  present  income  tax  and  Victory  tax  the  estimated  number  of  taxpayers 
for  calendar  year  1944  is  approximately  52.3  million.  Under  the  House  bill  the 
number  of  taxpayers  would  remain  approximately  the  same  as  under  present  law. 
Because  of  the  filing  of  joint  returns,  the  number  of  taxable  returns  is  less  than 
the  number  of  taxpayers.     The  number  of  taxable  returns  would  be  reduced  from 

44.1  million  under  present  law  to  41.7  million  under  the  House  bill.  Compared 
with  the  8.2  million  joint  returns  under  present  law  there  would  be  10.7  million 
joint  returns  under  the  House  bill. 

Under  the  simpler  integration  plan  suggested  by  the  Treasury,  there  would  be 

43.2  million  taxpayers,  a  reduction  of  9.1  million.  The  total  number  of  taxable 
returns  would  be  36.5  million,  of  which  6.7  million  would  be  joint  returns. 

3.  Married  taxpayers  would  find  it  much  easier  to  comply  with  the  income  tax 
under  the  simpler  Treasury  integration  plan  than  under  the  House  bill,  since  under 
the  bill  the  determination  of  whether  a  joint  return  or  separate  return  would  be 
more  advantageous  may  involve  numerous  complications. 

Under  present  law  it  is  ordinarily  to  the  advantage  of  a  married  couple  to  file 
separate  returns  only  if  their  combined  surtax  net  income  exceeds  $2,000.  If 
their  surtax  net  income  is  below  that  amount,  it  is  ordinarily  a  matter  of  indiffer- 
ence to  them  whether  they  file  separate  or  joint  returns.  The  House  bill,  how- 
ever, makes  it  advantageous  for  some  such  couples  to  file  joint  returns  and  for 
others  to  file  separate  returns.  At  the  same  time,  however,  it  makes  the  deter- 
mination of  whether  a  joint  return  or  separate  returns  should  be  filed,  a  complex 
problem  for  many  of  these  taxpayers.  Instead  of  one  breaking  point  fixed  in 
terms  of  surtax  net  income,  as  under  present  law,  the  House  bill  results  in  two 
sets  of  breaking  points.  On  incomes  above  the  higher  breaking  point  and  on 
incomes  below  the  lower  breaking  point  separate  returns  are  advantageous.  In 
the  area  between,  joint  returns  are  advantageous.  Moreover,  the  breaking 
points  are  not  fixed.  Because  no  part  of  the  $500  exemption  on  a  separate 
return  may  be  shifted  between  husband  and  wife,  the  breaking  points  vary  with 
the  division  of  income  between  husVjand  and  wife  and  also  with  the  number  of 
dependents.  For  individuals  filing  under  supplement  T  the  calculation  can  be 
simplified,  but  for  those  required  to  use  the  regular  income  tax  form,  complexities 
could  not  be  avoided.  The  breaking  points  are  difficult  to  compute  and  would 
not  be  known  to  most  taxpayers  unless  the  Treasury  undertook  to  supply  a 
complicated  series  of  tables  indicating  the  zones  of  advantage  under  joint  and 
separate  returns.  A  sample  of  this  type  of  table,  relating  only  to  one  assimied 
division  of  income  (50-50)  between  husband  and  wife,  and  only  to  a  married 
couple  with  one  dependent,  follows: 

Type  of  return  resulting 
Combined  net  income:  '"■  '***^''  '"* 

$800.00  to  $1,070.60 Separate. 

$1,070.60  to  .$5,166.67 Joint. 

Over  $5,166.67 Separate. 

Under  the  simple  integration  plan  suggested  by  the  Treasury,  there  is  only 
one  breaking  point  which  can  be  stated  in  terms  of  surtax  net  income  for  all 
taxpayers,  just  as  under  present  law.  The  accompanying  chart  relating  to  a 
married  couple  without  dependents  illustrates  the  diff'erence  in  this  respect 
between  the  Treasury  proposal  and  the  House  bill. 

The  complexities  with  respect  to  joint  or  separate  returns  under  the  House 
bill  follow  from  (a)  the  jirovision  that  a  married  couple  filing  separate  returns 
shall  each  be  allowed  an  exemption  of  $500  in  contrast  with  the  $1,200  allowed 
on  a  joint  return  under  the  ordinary  income  tax,  (6)  the  provision  that  no  part 
of  the  personal  exemption  allowed  on  a  separate  return  may  be  transferred  from 
one  spouse  to  another,  and  (c)  the  variation  between  the  personal  exemption 
and  dependent  credit  under  the  minimum  tax  as  compared  with  the  regular  tax. 

The  relationship  between  the  personal  exemptions  and  dependent  credits  under 
the  minimum  tax  and  the  regular  tax  may  result  in  much  confusion.  For  ex- 
ample, a  husband  and  wife  having  two  dependents  may  file  separate  returns 
each  claiming  one  dependent.  Under  the  House  bill  one  spouse  may  have  an 
exemption  of  $100  for  each  dependent  and  be  subject  to  a  3  percent  tax  rate, 
while  the  other  spouse  may  have  an  exemption  of  $350  for  the  other  dependent 
and  be  subject  to  a  23  percent  tax  rate. 

4.  A  further  complication  for  many  taxpayers  introduced  by  the  House  bill  is 
the  necessity,  if  separate  returns  are  filed,  to  allocate  the  dependent  exemption 
in  such  a  manner  as  to  reduce  the  tax  liability  to  a  minimum.  Many  computa- 
tions may  be  needed  by  taxpaj^ers  with  several  dependents  to  find  the  procedure 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


439 


that  will  result  in  the  least  tax  for  a  couple.  It  is  true  that  in  many  cases  it  would 
be  possible  for  information  to  be  provided  to  guide  married  couples  to  the  expedi- 
tious determination  of  their  tax  liability  under  either  the  minimum  tax  or  the 
regular  tax.  Nonetheless,  the  problem  of  complying  with  the  income  tax  law  will 
be  much  more  complicated  for  many  couj^les  with  low  incomes  under  the  House 
bill  than  under  the  present  law  or  under  the  Treasury  integration  plan.  Many 
couples  with  low  incomes  in  the  area  where  it  is  now  a  matter  of  indifference 
whether  they  filed  joint  or  separate  returns  or  how  they  divided  the  dependent 
credit  would,  under  the  House  bill,  need  to  make  numerous  computations  before 
reaching  the  most  advantageous  tax  result.  For  example,  a  married  couple  with 
an  aggregate  net  income  of  .'?2,125  and  with  three  dependents  could,  depending 
upon  the  procedure  that  happened  to  be  selected,  reach  10  different  tax  results 
(5  using  form  1040  and  5  using  form  1040A)  after  making  18  different  computa- 
tions of  tax  liability  for  the  husband  and  the  wife  before  ascertaining  the  least 
combined  tax  liability.  (See  illustration.)  Under  the  Treasury  integration  plan 
and  under  the  present  law  the  multiplicity  of  computations  is  not  necessary. 

5.  Another  difficulty  under  the  House  bill  is  that  some  taxpayers  who  may  now 
file  a  simplified  return  would  be  ])recluded  from  doing  so.  Under  the  regular 
income  tax,  the  exemptions  which  would  be  allowed  on  se]:>arate  returns  are 
lower  than  those  on  a  joint  return.  Many  married  couples  with  a  combined  gross 
income  of  more  than  $3,000,  wishing  to  file  a  joint  return  to  take  advantage  of 
the  higher  exemptions,  will  therefore  not  be  able  to  file  a  simplified  form,  since 
form  1040A  is  limited  to  a  return  with  a  gross  income  of  $3,000  or  less. 

6.  It  is  clear  that  the  House  bill  would  make  the  income  tax  more  complicated 
and  would  impose  greater  administrative  burdens  than  the  Treasury  integration 
plan.  The  repeal  of  the  Victory  tax  is  an  important  step  toward  simplification 
but  under  the  House  bill  this  is  offset  to  a  large  extent  by  other  complications 
introduced  by  the  bill,  which  would  not  exist  under  the  Treasury  plan. 

7.  The  House  bill  would  exempt  only  about  130,000  taxpayers  who  now  pay 
a  net  Victory  tax  of  about  $600,000.  iTicluding  these  taxpayers,  a  total  of  ap- 
proximately 26,000,000  taxpayers  would  obtain  a  reduction  in  tax  of  370.3  million 
dollars.  On  the  other  hand,  another  26,000,000  taxpayers  would  pay  an  increase 
in  tax  aggregating  459.2  million  dollars. 

The  Treasury  plan  would  exempt  9.1  million  taxpayers  who  now  pay  a  net 
Victory  tax  of  274.9  million  dollars.  Including  these,  there  would  be  18,000,000 
taxpayers  with  a  total  reduction  in  tax  of  435.9  million  dollars.  The  Treasury 
plan  would  increase  the  liability  of  approximately  34,000,000  taxpayers  by  711.3 
million  dollars. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  taxpayers  and  the  amount  of  tax

APPENDIX  C.    POSSIBLE  REVISIONS  IN  THE  80  PERCENT  LIMITATION  TO  EFFECT 
A  MORE  SATISFACTORY  GEADUATION  IN  EFFECTIVE  RATES 

The  Revenue  Act  of  1942  provided  for  a  limitation  on  the  excess-profits  tax  so 
that  in  combination  with  the  normal  tax  and  surtax  it  will  not  exceed  80  percent 
of  surtax  net  income.  This  limitation  was  imposed  on  gross  taxes  before  deducting 
the  post-war  refund  of  10  percent  of  excess-profits  taxes  as  limited. 

The  excess-profits  tax  as  limited  is  computed  by  taking  80  percent  of  surtax  net 
income  and  subtracting  normal  taxes  and  surtaxes  from  this  figure.  The  balance 
is  termed  excess-profits  taxes  and  is  used  in  computing  the  post-war  refund  of  10 
percent  of  excess-profits  taxes. 

Thus  on  a  given  level  of  income  subject  to  the  80  percent  limitation  effective 
tax  rates  after  the  post-war  refund  decrease  as  the  percentage  of  that  income 
represented  by  taxable  excess  profits  increases.  Since  normal  profits  (normal-tax 
net  income)  are  determined  by  subtracting  taxable  excess  profits  from  total  income, 
an  increase  in  taxable  excess  profits  reduces  taxable  normal  profits.  A  reduction 
in  normal  profits,  and,  therefore,  a  reduction  in  normal  taxes  and  surtaxes,  increases 
the  portion  of  total  tax  liabilities  (80  percent  of  surtax  net  income  which  remains 
unchanged)  called  excess-profits  taxes  and  increases  the  post-war  credit.  Al- 
though gross  taxes  remain  at  80  percent  of  income,  net  taxes  after  the  post-war 
refund  are  thus  reduced. 

Therefore,  increases  in  the  excess-profits  tax  base  will  reduce  taxes  on  corpora- 
tions subject  to  the  80  percent  limitation,  and  increases  in  the  excess-profits  tax 
rate  will  leave  them  unaffected.     Only  increases  in  the  normal  tax  or  surtax  rate, 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 


441 


by  reducing  their  post-war  refunds,  can  increase  the  over-all  tax  burden  on  these 
corporations  without  a  change  in  the  limitation. 

Under  a  95  percent  excess-profits  tax,  or  85  }2  percent  after  deducting  the  post- 
war refund,  a  still  greater  limitation  in  the  excess-profits  tax  results.  In  order 
that  an  increase  in  excess-profits  taxes  will  apply  to  those  corporations  earning 
the  largest  excess  profits,  and  in  order  that  a  smoother  graduation  in  efl'ective  tax 
rates  may  be  provided  as  taxable  excess  profits  represent  a  larger  and  larger  per- 
centage of  total  income.  Three  possible  revisions  could  be  made  in  the  80  percent 
limitation. 

Revision  A  would  substitute  an  85  percent  excess-profits  tax  with  no  post-war 
refund  for  the  95  percent  excess-profits  tax  and  10  percent  post-war  refund  in  the 
House  bill.     The  80  percent  limitation  would  remain  in  effect. 

Revision  B  would  leave  the  80  percent  limitation  as  applied  to  gross  taxes  but 
taxes  after  the  post-war  refund  would  be  determined  as  if  there  were  no  80  percent 
limit.^  This  would  have  the  effect,  in  most  instances,  of  charging  the  reduction  in 
taxes  resulting  from  the  80  percent  limitation  against  the  taxpayer's  post-war 
refund,  rather  than  against  gross  taxes. 

Revision  C  would  raise  the  present  limit  of  80  i^ercent  to  85  percent,  but  would 
not  change  the  basic  structure  of  the  limitation. 

The  effective  tax  rates  which  would  result  from  these  changes  are  presented  in 
table  a,  both  before  and  after  the  post-war  refund,  if  any.  In  chart  I  (omitted 
here)  the  effective  tax  rates  after  the  post-war  refund  are  shown.

APPENDIX  D.    ADDITIONAL  TAX    RELIEF  FOR  CORPORATIONS  ENGAGED  IN  THE 
MINING  OF  CERTAIN  STRATEGIC  MINERALS 

The  Treasury  recognizes  the  importance  of  encouraging  the  discovery  and 
development  of  mines  capable  of  yielding  minerals  of  high  strategic  value  in  the 
production  of  war  materials.  In  those  cases  where  the  exemption  from  excess- 
profits  taxation  and  the  allowance  of  more  liberal  depletion  allowances  will 
increase  the  output  of  these  strategic  minerals,  the  Treasury  believes  that  such 
additional  tax  relief  measures  are  proper.  However,  the  Treasury  believes  it 
undesirable  to  extend  relief  to  minerals  which,  in  the  opinion  of  the  War  Pro- 
duction Board,  cannot  be  designated  as  strategic  minerals.  Tax  relief  should  not 
be  permitted  to  become  tax  avoidance. 

A  year  ago  the  Treasury,  after  consultation  with  officials  of  the  War  Production 
Board,  recommended  that  the  income  from  the  production  of  11  strategic  minerals 
be  exempt  from  excess-profits  taxes.  The  addition  of  fluorspar,  and  flake  graphite, 
to  this  list  of  minerals  is  proper;  both  of  these  minerals  are  of  strategic  importance. 
However,  we  see  no  possible  reason  for  the  inclusion  of  vermiculite  among  these 
strategic  minerals.  Although  this  mineral  has  some  uses  in  connection  with  war 
pr  '  on,  it  is  the  opinion  of  officials  in  the  War  Production  Board  that  the 
pres  nt  supply  is  more  than  adequate.  The  bulk  of  this  mineral  is  used  for 
building  insulation  in  competition  with  rock  wool  and  asbestos,  products  which 
no  one  would  presume  to  say  were  of  strategic  importance. 

'  However,  in  no  case  would  total  taxes  after  the  post-war  refund  exceed  80  percent  of  surtax  net  income. 


442      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

The  Treasury's  position  with  respect  to  the  extension  of  percentage  depletion 
to  strategic  minerals  as  a  wartime  measure  is  the  same  as  that  with  respect  to  the 
exemption  of  these  minerals  from  excess-profits  taxes.  If,  but  only  if,  the  allow- 
ance of  percentage  depletion  for  the  duration  of  hostilities  will  contribute  to  the 
war  effort,  the  Treasury  recognizes  the  advantages  of  such  allowances  despite  our 
firm  conviction  that  the  percentage  depletion  provisions  in  the  present  law  have, 
in  general,  enabled  many  individual  and  corporate  taxpayers  to  avoid  their  fair 
share  of  the  Nation's  tax  burden.  Generally,  our  position  with  respect  to  per- 
centage depletion  is  the  same  as  was  expressed  in  hearings  on  the  1942  revenue 
bill.i 

However,  on  the  basis  of  the  representations  of  the  War  Production  Board  that 
percentage  "depletion  for  these  metals  for  the  duration  of  the  war  will  contribute 
to  the  war  effort,  we  concur  in  the  action  taken  in  the  House  bill  in  granting 
percentage  depletion  to  fluorspar,  flake  graphite,  sheet  mica,  and  beryl. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  Treasury  does  not  believe  that  the  extension  of  per- 
centage depletion  to  vermiculite,  feldspar,  lepidolite,  spodumene,  and  potash  can 
be  justified  even  as  a  war  measure.  Although  these  minerals  are  used  to  a  greater 
or  lesser  extent  in  war  production,  we  have  been  informed  by  the  War  Production 
Board  that  the  current  output  of  all  of  them  is  adequate  to  meet  present  wartime 
requirements.  Consequently,  these  minerals  stand  in  no  difl'erent  position  from 
all  the  other  minerals  which  have  important  wartime  uses  but  with  respect  to 
which  no  critical  supply  situation  exists.  It  should  be  noted  that  most  of  the 
potash  reserves  in  this  country  are  found  on  public  lands.  The  largest  known 
deposits  are  found  on  Federal  land  where  production  is  controlled  by  the  Depart- 
ment of  the  Interior. 


APPENDIX  E.     SPECIAL    EXCESS-PROFITS    TAX    TREATMENT    WITH    RESPECT    TO 
THE  ACCELERATED  OUTPUT  OF  CERTAIN  NATURAL  RESOURCES 

A.  THE   EXTENSION   OF   THE    COAL    .'^ND    IRON   RULE  OF  SECTION  735  TO  THE  NATURAL 

GAS  INDUSTRY 

The  House  bill  provides  special  excess-profits  tax  treatment  for  natural  gas 
companies  with  respect  to  income  from  the  production,  storage,  and  transporta- 
tion by  pipe  lines  of  natural  gas.  The  treatment  given  would  be  the  same  as  that 
now  granted  under  section  735  (b)  (2)  with  respect  to  income  from  coal  and  iron 
mines. 

The  Treasury  recognizes  that  natural  gas  is  a  depletable  resource,  the  produc- 
tion of  which  has  greatly  increased  since  the  beginning  of  the  war.  It  would  not  be 
opposed  to  the  amendment  of  section  735  to  include  producers  of  natural  gas. 
However,  the  natural  gas  companies  which  will  benefit  most  under  the  provisions 
of  the  House  bill  are  primarily  engaged  in  the  operation  of  pipe  lines.  Some  of 
these  companies  produce  no  natural  gas,  and  all  of  them  buy  a  substantial  per- 
centage of  the  gas  carried  in  their  pipe  lines.  The  Treasury  "believes  it  would  be 
undesirable  to  extend  the  relief  now  afforded  to  depletable  resource  industries  to 
these  companies. 

Our  reasons  are  twofold.  First,  from  an  examination  of  the  tax  returns  of  a 
laumber  of  the  representative  companies  in  this  industry  it  appears  that  the  industry, 
as  a  whole,  is  now  earning  as  much  per  unit  of  output  after  excess-profits  taxes  but 
before  corporation  income  taxes  as  it  earned  during  the  base  peiiod  years.  It  is 
our  belief  that  the  excess-profits  tax  cannot  be  said  to  be  injuring  an  industry,  if 
this  tax  allows  the  industry  to  retain  its  normal  unit  profits. 

Second,  we  believe  that  the  problem  faced  by  the  natural  gas  industry  as  a 
result  of  accelerated  output  is  primarily  a  depreciation  rather  than  a  depletion 
problem.  The  rehef  given  in  the  House  bill  does  not  appear  to  provide  an 
appropriate  remedy  for  the  wartime  jjroblems  of  this  industry.  The  Treasury 
is  of  the  opinion  that  the  position  of  the  natural  gas  industry  is  not  so  unique 
with  respect  to  accelerated  depreciation  that  it  should  be  relieved  of  the  wartime 
taxes  which  Congress  has  imposed  upon  industry  as  a  whole. 

B.  EXTENSION  OF  THE  COAL  AND  IRON  RULE  IN  SECTION  735  TO   NEW 
PROPERTIES  AND  TO  CORPORATE  LESSORS 

The  House  bill  extends  the  treatment  accorded  by  section  735  to  operators  of 
coal  and  iron  mines  and  of  lumber  tracts  in  two  respects:   (1)   Corporate  lessors 


1  See  Secretary  Morgenthau's  statement,  p.  8,  and  testimony  of  Randolph  Paul,  pp.  84,  2988,  3438,  hearings 
before  Ways  and  Means  Committee,  77th  Cong.,  2d  sess. 


REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF    THE   TRfeASURY  443 

are  given  the  same  treatment  as  operators;  and  (2)  new  mines  and  timber  prop- 
erties are  allowed  to  treat  one-third  of  their  output  as  excess  output. 

Last  year,  when  the  revenue  bill  of  1942  was  being  considered  by  your  com- 
mittee, the  Treasury  pointed  out  the  undesirability  of  the  special  formula  which 
was  made  applicable  to  producers  of  coal,  iron,  and  timber.  We  believed  then, 
as  we  believe  today,  that  a  measure  which  distributes  tax  relief  without  regard  to 
need  not  only  deprives  the  Government  of  much  needed  revenues,  but  also  results 
in  an  inequitable  distribution  of  the  wartime  tax  burden  among  business  enter- 
prises. 

However,  if  the  coal,  iron,  and  timber  rule  is  to  be  retained  in  section  735,  the 
amendments  introduced  in  the  House  bill  are  appropriate.  In  the  case  of  coal 
mines  and  timber  blocks,  the  distinction  between  new  and  old  properties  appears 
to  be  a  tenuous  one  which  has  resulted  in  some  inequities.  As  to  the  other 
amendment,  corjDorate  lessors  of  coal,  iron,  and  timber  properties  should  be  en- 
titled to  the  same  relief  now  granted  by  the  law  to  the  operators  of  such  properties. 


APPENDIX  F.     EXCISE  TAXES 
A.  GENERAL  BASIS  FOR  RECOMMENDATIONS 

We  have  recommended  that  an  additional  2!-^  ))illion  dollars  be  raised  through 
increases  in  the  rates  and  changes  in  the  basis  of  several  existing  excise  taxes 
and  through  enacting  two  new  excises.  In  addition,  it  is  recommended  that 
the  tax  on  the  transportation  of  property  be  repealed.  The  specific  items  selected 
for  heavier  taxation,  as  well  as  the  level  of  the  proposed  rates,  were  determined 
after  detailed  analyses  had  been  made  of  the  demand  and  supply  conditions  in 
the  different  industries,  and  after  consideration  had  been  given  to  the  manner  in 
which  producers  and  consumers  would  be  affected.  Moreover  the  Treasur}-- 
recommendations  on  excises  are  part  of  a  balanced  tax  program. 

Substantial  wartime  increases  in  our  excise  taxes  on  consumer  goods  and 
services  are  justified  on  several  grounds.  The  additional  administrative  costs 
would  be  relatively  small  for  the  Government,  as  would  the  taxpayers'  costs  of 
compliance.  There  is  every  reason  to  believe  that  few,  if  any,  of  the  business 
concerns  affected  would  be  unduly  burdened,  since  the  higher  levies  generally 
could  be  shifted  to  consumers  with  little  difficulty.  Wartime  supply  shortages 
are  troublesome  for  many  industries,  to  be  sure,  but  these  very  shortages,  coupled 
with  the  high  level  of  consumer  income,  create  a  market  situation  extremely 
favorable  to  forward  shifting  of  excise  taxes. 

Similarly,  there  is  every  reason  to  believe  that  the  higher  taxes  would  not  cause 
hardship  for  consumers.  The  prices  of  only  a  relatively  few  nonbasic  commodities 
and  services  would  be  afi"ected.  Consumers  in  a  difficult  economic  situation  would 
be  given  a  real  choice  between  paying  the  higher  taxes  and  decreasing  their  pur- 
chases of  these  nonessentials  and  thereby  relieving  themselves  of  part  or  all  of 
the  taxes. 

While  formulating  the  Treasury's  excise  program,  we  made  comparisons  with 
a  sales  tax  proposal  designed  to  yield  an  equivalent  amount  of  revenue.  To  raise 
2H  billion  dollars  by  means  of  a  sales  tax  would  require  about  a  4  percent  rate 
on  all  retail  sales,  on  basic  living  needs  as  well  as  on  nonessentials  and  luxuries. 
If  food  sales  were  exempted,  the  required  rate  would  be  more  than  6  percent,  and 
if  the  exemption  were  extended  to  cover  also  medicines  and  clothing,  the  required 
rate  would  be  over  9  percent. 

There  are  at  least  three  fundamental  reasons  why  the  selective  excise  method 
is  to  be  preferred.  First,  the  added  administrative  and  compliance  effort  would 
be  only  a  small  fraction  of  what  would  be  entailed  by  a  retail  sales  tax.  There 
would  Ije  no  substantial  enlargement  of  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  staff.  Few- 
new  administrative  procedures  would  have  to  be  established,  and  the  added  num- 
ber of  taxpayers  would  be  far  less  than  the  2)^  million  firms  that  would  be  covered 
by  a  retail  sales  tax. 

Second,  the  lower  income  groups  would  not  be  forced  to  reduce  their  consumption 
of  the  necessities  of  life  as  they  inevitably  would  under  a  sales  tax.  A  retail  sales 
tax,  applying  to  the  bulk  of  consumer  purchases,  does  not  give  these  groups  any 
real  choice  between  paying  the  tax  and  escaping  it  by  cutting  their  taxable  pur- 
chases. Higher  prices  for  the  things  they  buy,  whether  induced  by  a  sales  tax 
or  any  other  cause,  simply  mean  that  many  low-income  consumers  must  exist 
at  a  still  lower  living  standard. 


444      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Third,  under  the  excise  method,  we  would  be  certain  that  a  net  gain,  rather 
than  a  loss,  would  be  achieved  on  the  anti-inflation  front.  The  excise  tax  pro- 
posals would  not  affect  the  farm  parity  index,  while  a"  general  retail  sales  tax 
designed  to  raise  the  same  amount  of  revenue  would  increase  the  index  by  more 
than  2  percent.  The  excise  proposals  would  increase  the  cost-of-living  index  by 
about  1  percent,  while  an  equivalent  sales  tax  would  raise  it  by  almost  3  percent. 
These  increases  would  occur  at  a  time  when  vigorous  action  is  being  taken  along 
many  fronts  to  keep  living  costs  down.  The  net  effect  on  business  costs  would 
be  minor  under  the  excise  method,  particularly  if  the  recommended  repeal  of  the 
tax  on  transportation  of  property  jis  accepted.  Under  the  sales  tax  method, 
price  ceiling  adjustments  to  compensate  for  the  sales  tax  on  various  business-cost 
items  would  be  unavoidable.  From  the  standpoint  of  the  effects  on  the  parity 
index,  the  cost-of-living  index,  and  on  business  costs,  therefore,  the  excise  method 
offers  significant  advantages.  There  would  be  no  risk  of  upsetting  the  Govern- 
ment's wartime  stabilization  program,  particularly  because  the  costs  of  basic 
necessities  would  not  be  affected. 

B.    GENERAL    COMPARISON    OF    TREASURY    RECOMMENDATIONS    AND    THE    HOUSE 
ACTION    ON    EXCISE    TAXES   AND    POSTAL    RATES 

The  Treasury's  excise  tax  proposals  to  the  Committee  on  Ways  and  Means 
were  designed  to  raise  an  additional  214  billion  dollars  of  revenue.  The  excise 
tax  changes  embodied  in  the  House  bill  are  estimated  to  raise  an  additional  1.2 
billion  dollars  of  revenue.  The  bill  also  provides  for  higher  postal  rates  estimated 
to  produce  an  increase  of  184  million  dollars  in  postal  revenues. 

In  most  cases  the  items  selected  for  heavier  taxation  in  the  House  bill  are  the 
same  as  those  in  the  Treasury's  recommendations.  Some  of  the  rate  increases  in 
the  House  bill,  however,  are  not  as  great  as  those  suggested  by  the  Treasury.  As  a 
result  the  House  bill  would  raise  an  additional  1.1  billion  dollars  from  items  in- 
cluded in  the  Treasury's  proposals,  whereas  the  Treasury  suggested  raising  about 
1.8  billion  dollars  from  these  same  sources. 

Excise  tax  changes  included  in  the  House  bill,  but  not  in  the  Treasury's  pro- 
posals, are  the  increases  in  rates  on  electric  light  bulbs,  international  telegraph 
messages,  and  wire  equipment  services,  and  the  new  excise  on  pari-mutuel  betting. 
The  additional  revenue  from  these  changes  is  estimated  to  be  about  51  million 
dollars. 

The  Treasury  also  proposed  to  raise  an  additional  852  million  dollars  from  rate 
increases  in  the  tobacco  taxes  and  from  new  taxes  on  soft  drinks  and  candy  and 
chewing  gum.     None  of  these  proposals  is  included  in  the  House  bill. 

Finally,  the  House  bill  does  not  provide  for  repeal  of  the  tax  on  transportation 
of  property. 

C.    ANALYSIS    OP    EXCISE    TAX    PROVISIONS    IN    HOUSE    BILL 

The  magnitude  of  our  war  finance  requirements  and  the  need  for  absorbing 
excess  consumer  spending  power  to  the  greatest  extent  possible  demand  that 
every  effort  be  made  to  reach  the  2]^  billion  dollars  excise  tax  goal  recommended 
by  the  Treasur}\  The  provisions  in  the  House  bill  would  go  only  about  half  the 
way  toward  meeting  the  Treasury's  goal.  There  are  two  principal  reasons  for 
this  difference. 

The  first  reason  is  that  the  recommended  increases  in  tobacco  taxes  and  the 
proposals  for  taxing  soft  drinks  and  candy  and  chewing  gum  were  not  adopted 
in  the  House.  These  recommendations  would  raise  $852,000,000.  Failure  to 
provide  for  wartime  increases  in  the  tobacco  taxes  cannot  be  justified  on  the 
basis  of  the  prevailing  demand  and  supply  conditions  in  the  industries  involved. 
The  proposed  tax  increases  could  be  passed  forward  to  consumers  without  burden- 
ing tobacco  growers,  manufacturers  or  distributors.  From  the  standpoint  of  the 
probable  effects  on  consumers  and  the  industries,  there  are  just  as  good  reasons 
for  obtaining  additional  revenue  from  the  tobacco  taxes  as  from  the  other  excise 
taxes  included  in  the  House  bill. 

Taxing  soft  drinks  and  candy  and  chewing  gum,  as  recommended  by  the 
Treasury,  would  raise  $367,000,000.  The  supplies  of  these  items  are  appreciably 
below  the  wartime  demands  of  consumers  and,  consequently,  the  proposed  taxes 
could  be  shifted  forward  to  consumers  without  l-educing  the  total  volume  of  sales. 
While  vending  machine  operators  probably  could  not  find  a  satisfactory  method 
of  shifting  the  taxes  on  these  products,  it  is  believed  that  they  generally  could 
continue  to  operate  profitably  by  distributing  nontaxable  products  such  as  nuts, 
raisins,  cookies,  and  nonaerated  soft  drinks. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       445 

The  second  reason  why  the  House  bill  does  not  meet  the  Treasury's  2%  billion 
dollars  excise  tax  goal  is  that  it  includes  rate  increases  below  the  levels  recom- 
mended by  the  Treasury  for  the  taxes  on  distilled  spirits,  fermented  malt  liquors, 
wines,  general  admissions,  transportation  of  persons,  and  jewelry.  The  higher 
rates  proposed  by  the  Treasury  would  raise  689  million  dollars  more  than  those  in 
the  House  bill.  The  Treasury  again  recommends  the  wartime  increase  originally 
proposed  for  these  taxes.  These  increases  are  fully  warranted  in  view  of  the 
great  wartime  increases  in  demand  for  these  articles  and  services  and  the  prevail- 
ing scarcities  in  their  supply. 

A  further  difference  between  the  House  bill  and  the  Treasury's  excise  proposals 
is  the  failure  to  repeal  the  tax  on  transportation  of  property  which  was  enacted 
last  year.  This  tax  is  undesirable,  since  it  disturbs  existing  price  and  com- 
petitive relationships  and  results  in  discrimination  among  competing  producers. 
It  conflicts  with  the  Government's  efforts  to  stabilize  prices  and  the  advantages 
which  would  follow  its  repeal  would  more  than  offset  the  $170,000,000  decrease 
in  revenue. 

Finally,  special  problems  are  raised  by  the  excise  tax  provisions  in  the  House 
bill.  The  first  relates  to  the  amount  of  tax  increase  on  fermented  malt  liquors. 
An  increase  of  $1  per  barrel  as  provided  in  the  House  bill  would  represent  0.2 
cent  per  8-ounce  glass  and  0.3  cent  per  12-ounce  bottle.  If  distributors  were 
permitted  to  increase  their  unit  selling  prices  by  a  full  cent  they  would  gain 
larger  profits  because  of  the  tax  and  the  Treasury  would  not  get  the  full  benefit 
of  the  higher  consumer  outlays.  On  the  other  hand,  if  price  increases  were 
not  permitted,  distributors  would  be  compelled  to  absorb  part  of  the  higher  tax. 
A  $3  per  barrel  tax  increase  as  originally  recommended  by  the  Treasury  would 
more  nearly  approximate  full  cent  price  increases  on  customary  units  of  sale. 

The  Federal  Communications  Commission  has  indicated  the  desirability  of 
maintaining  the  present  10  percent  rate  on  international  cable  and  radio-telegraph 
messages  in  order  to  facilitate  its  efforts  in  promoting  international  communica- 
tions. The  Commission  has  also  indicated  the  desirability  of  continuing  the 
existing  tax  differential  between  the  taxes  on  telephone  toll  message  charges 
and  domestic  telegraph  charges.  The  House  bill  proposes  to  tax  these  two  services 
at  25  percent  rates.  It  should  also  be  noted  that  because  of  competitive  re- 
lationships existing  between  domestic  telegraph  messages  and  leased  wire  services, 
the  taxes  on  these  two  types  of  services  should  preferably  be  at  the  same  level. 
The  House  bill  provides  for  a  25  percent  tax  on  domestic  telegraph  messages  and 
a  20  percent  tax  on  leased  wire,  teletypewriter,  and  talking  circuit  special  services. 

Another  consideration  involves  the  retailers'  excise  taxes.  At  the  present 
time  these  are  levied  at  10  percent  rates.  The  House  bill  follows  the  Treasury's 
proposals  in  providing  for  25  percent  rates  on  fur  and  fur-trimmed  articles, 
toilet  preparations,  and  luggage  and  related  goods.  With  respect  to  the  jewelry 
excise,  however,  the  bill  provides  for  a  20  percent  rate,  compared  to  the  30  per- 
cent rate  recommended  by  the  Treasury.  In  the  light  of  the  optional  character 
of  the  bulk  of  the  items  covered  by  the  jewelry  tax,  the  unprecedentedly  high 
demand  for  these  items,  and  the  limited  supplies  that  are  available,  the  Treas- 
ury believes  that  the  jewelry  tax  should  be  at  least  as  high  as  the  other  retailers' 
excises. 

D.    TERMINATION    OF    CERTAIN    GOVERNMENTAL    EXCISE    TAX    EXEMPTIONS 

Section  307  of  the  House  bill  provides  for  the  termination  of  numerous  excise 
tax  exemptions  on  sales  of  goods  and  services  to  the  Federal  Government  as 
requested  by  the  President  in  a  letter  dated  August  11,  1943,  to  the  chairman  of 
the  Committee  on  Ways  and  Means.  The  chief  taxes  affected  are  the  manufac- 
turers' and  retailers'  excise  taxes,  the  taxes  on  the  transportation  of  persons  and 
property,  and  those  upon  charges  for  the  use  of  communication  facilities.  It 
is  believed  that  this  amendment  would  achieve  considerable  savings  in  the 
manpower  now  used  by  the  Federal  Government  and  private  business  to  admin- 
ister these  exemptions. 

The  exemption  provisions  required  the  determination  of  the  questions  whether 
sales  are  made  to  governmental  agencies  and  whether  the  articles  or  services  are 
for  the  exclusive  use  of  these  agencies.  Because  of  the  numerous  types  of  con- 
tracts under  which  sales  are  made  to  the  Government  and  the  greatly  expanded 
scope  of  its  activities,  considerable  work  is  required  to  establish  proof  of  the 
conditions  upon  which  the  exemptions  depend.  The  services  of  employees 
taking  care  of  these  details  could  be  better  utilized  in  other  activities.  Repeal 
of  the  exemption  privileges  also  may  well  increase  the  net  revenues  of  the  Federal

Government  because  it  is  believed  that  the  present  system  results  in  considerable 
loss  of  revenue  through  carelessness,  errors,  and  possible  fraud.  The  tremendous 
volume  of  paper  work  involved  makes  it  impossible  for  the  personnel  now  avail- 
able to  check  adequately  transactons  for  which  tax  exemptions  are  requested. 

Exhibit  49 

Statement  of  Randolph  E.  Paul,  General  Counsel  for  the  Treasury  Department, 
before  the  House  Ways  and  Means  Committee,  September  10,  1943,  relative  to  the 
revenue  implications  of  changes  in  the  renegotiation  statute. 

I  appreciate  the  opportunity  which  this  committee  has  extended  to  me  to  present 
the  Treasury  views  on  the  role  and  operation  of  renegotiation  in  the  wartime 
economy.  Inasmuch  as  the  quantitative  burden  of  renegotiation  rests  principally 
with  the  major  procurement  agencies,  I  shall  not  undertake  to  discuss  the  actual 
procedures  and  mechanisms  involved  in  the  process  of  renegotiation.  With  the 
permission  of  the  committee  I  shall  confine  my  statement  to  a  discussion,  from 
the  standpoint  of  revenue  implications,  of  certain  suggested  changes  in  that 
philosophy  and  structure. 

From  the  standpoint  of  tax  policy,  a  question  of  particular  significance  is 
whether  renegotiation  should  be  before  or  after  Federal  income  and  excess-profits 
taxes.  There  was  much  discussion  of  this  point  in  the  recent  hearings  before 
the  Naval  Affairs  Committee,  but  no  unanimity  developed  among  industrialists. 
For  example,  the  president  and  the  vice  president  of  one  of  the  largest  corpora- 
tions in  America  have  presented  squarely  contradictory  opinions  on  this  question. 
On  the  other  hand,  there  is  unanimity  of  view  among  the  procurement  agencies 
that  renegotiation  should  be  before  taxes.  Because  of  this  division  of  opinion 
among  industrialists,  and  because  of  the  quantity  of  discussion  of  the  point, 
I  would  like  to  present  to  the  committee  the  position  of  the  Treasury. 

If  more  than  a  general  anah'sis  is  to  be  made  of  the  proposal  that  renegotiation 
should  be  after  taxes  it  will  be  necessary  to  define  the  proposal  in  somewhat 
more  precise  terms.  "Renegotiation  after  taxes"  is  not  a  meaningful  phrase  until 
it  has  been  translated  into  the  application  of  specific  methods  to  specific  cases. 
Particularity  of  this  sort  has  been  noticeably  absent  from  much  of  the  previous 
discussion  by  the  advocates  of  renegotiation  after  taxes.  In  my  discussion 
I  shall  assurne  the  proposal  contemplates  that  Federal  taxes  would  be  allowed 
as  items  of  cost  on  an  equal  footing  with  such  items  as  wages,  raw  materials, 
and  overhead. 

The  view  that  the  fixing  of  reasonable  prices  in  procurement  should  operate 
without  taking  taxes  into  account  was  one  of  the  oases  of  certainty  in  World  War  I 
procurement.  Even  under  the  cost-plus-percentage-of-cost  contract  of  that  era 
Federal  taxes  were  excluded,  either  si)ecifically  or  by  ruling,  from  the  itemization 
of  the  costs  by  which  the  contractor's  fee  was  to  be  measured.  In  a  case  in  which 
a  cost-plus- id-percent  contract  included  such  taxes  as  an  item  of  cost,  the  Acting 
Secretary  of  the  Navy,  in  a  ruling  of  January  24,  1918,  addressed  to  the  compen- 
sation board,  said: 

"The  mandate  of  the  statute  is  that  the  income,  corporation,  and  excess-profits 
taxes  shall  be  levied,  assessed,  collected,  and  paid;  and  that  certain  manufacturers 
shall  pay  the  munitions  tax. 

"To  construe  the  contract  clauses  submitted  by  the  compensation  board  as 
including  the  payment  of  these  taxes  as  a  part  of  the  cost  in  the  cost-plus-profits 
contracts  would  ascribe  to  the  Secretary  an  intention  to  remit  taxes  which  the 
statute  commands  the  contractor  to  pay. 

"As  a  contract  must,  if  possible,  be  construed  to  effect  a  lawful  purpose, 
these  contracts  are  not  to  be  construed  to  exempt  contractors  from  the  payment 
of  these  taxes  by  including  them  as  a  part  of  the  costs  to  be  paid  by  the  depart- 
ment." 

In  the  present  war,  as  in  the  last  war,  contract  prices  are  established  in  accord- 
ance with  ordinary  commercial  practice.  This  means  that  they  are  established 
without  regard  to  the  amount  of  taxes  on  profits  earned  under  the  contracts. 
Presumably,  no  one  would  seriously  propose  that  the  Government  procurement 
officers  should  wipe  out  the  Federal  taxes  on  war  contractors  by  including  an 
allowance  for  such  taxes  in  prices  paid  for  war  materiel.  Yet,  as  the  preceding 
witnesses  have  pointed  out,  exactly  that  result  would  follow  if  in  renegotiation 
taxes  were  allowed  as  an  item  of  cost. 

Stated  in  other  words,  if  the  Govermnent  were  to  renegotiate  after  an  allowance 
for  income  and  excess-profits  taxes,  it  would  itself  be  paying  the  wartime  tax 
levy  ostensibly  imposed  on  the  war-materiel  producer.     It  is  self-evident  that 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       447 

the  buyer  should  not  have  to  pay  the  seller's  share  of  the  Government's  revenue 
needs.  How  much  more  anomalous  would  it  be  for  the  tax-imposing  authority 
itself,  in  its  capacity  as  consumer,  to  pay  the  very  taxes  which  it  has  levied  upon 
the  war-materiel  producers  as  their  fair  share  of  the  cost  of  the  war? 

Not  only  does  renegotiation  after  taxes  carry  these  harmful  implications  from 
the  procurement  standpoint,  but  it  would  also  encroach  directly  upon  the  tax 
field.  It  would  become  a  tax  measure,  and  an  unscientific  and  uncoordinated  tax 
measure  at  that.  In  1940,  when  the  excess-profits  tax  was  adopted,  Congress 
decided  to  allow  corporations  either  a  return  equivalent  to  the  amount  of  pre-war 
earnings  or  a  reasonable  return  on  invested  capital,  at  their  option,  before  sub- 
jecting wartime  earnings  to  the  excess-profits  tax.  This  established  congressional 
policy  would  be  nullified  if  renegotiation  were  changed  to  an  after-tax  basis.  A 
corporation  with  a  high  excess-profits  tax  base  or  credit  would  pay  less  excess- 
profits  tax  than  a  corporation  with  a  low  base,  but  would  pay  more  on  renegotiation. 
The  effect  would  be  to  equalize  the  position  of  all  companies.  No  attention 
would  be  given  to  the  question  whether  their  profits  were  swollen  war  profits  or 
were  merely  reasonable  returns  as  compared  with  pre-war  earnings  or  invested 
capital.  The  effect  would  also  be  to  vitiate  the  relief  provisions  so  carefully 
conceived  by  this  committee  and  the  Senate  Finance  Committee  in  enacting  the 
1942  act,  such  as  section  722  and  the  carry-back  of  unused  excess-profits  tax 
credit  and  net  operating  loss.  In  other  words,  the  benefits  which  the  tax  laws 
extend  through  the  relief  provisions  would  be  curtailed,  if  not  eliminated,  by  the 
dollar-for-dollar  recapture  on  renegotiation  after  taxes.  A  reduction  in  taxes 
under  the  relief  provisions  would  increase  the  amount  to  be  returned  upon  renego- 
tiation. Our  wartime  corporation  tax  structure  would  be  thrown  into  the  discard 
by  the  operation  of  a  price  adjustment  mechanism  distorted  into  an  arbitrary 
revenue  juggernaut. 

Renegotiation  before  taxes  determines  the  amount,  if  any,  of  excessive  prices. 
As  a  procurement  device  it  very  properly  does  not  have  any  concern  with  the  tax 
law  concept  of  excess  profits.  After  procurement,  including  renegotiation,  has 
first  established  reasonable  prices,  the  tax  law  then  functions  on  the  seller's  income 
in  accordance  with  the  specific  rules  laid  down  by  the  Congress  for  measuring  the 
proper  distribution  of  the  tax  burden.  In  renegotiation  after  taxes,  however,  the 
tax  law  would  operate  before  the  price  had  even  been  fixed,  and  renegotiation 
would  then  operate  as  an  administratively  imposed  supertax,  without  regard  to 
the  pattern  of  excess-profits  credit,  relief  provisions,  or  revenue  rates.  The  out- 
come would  be  to  throw  all  war  producers  together  and  to  extract  the  same  amount 
of  money  proportionately  from  each  of  them,  either  by  renegotiation  or  taxation, 
without  regard  to  the  amount  of  excess  profits,  and  without  regard  to  relative 
efficiency  and  reasonableness  of  price.  The  corporation  with  the  higher  excess- 
profits  tax  base  and  lower  excess-profits  tax  would  pay  more  on  renegotiation  than 
the  compan}^  with  the  lower  base  and  higher  tax,  regardless  of  procurement  policies 
and  regardless  of  the  policies  of  the  tax  laws.  I  do  not  believe  that  renegotiation 
would  have  been  adopted  if  it  had  been  regarded  as  an  additional,  indiscriminate 
tax  measure.  As  I  have  said  many  times  to  this  committee,  the  imposition  of 
taxes  is  a  congressional,  not  an  administrative,  function. 

Renegotiation  will  have  served  its  purpose  when  it  has  helped  to  establish 
reasonable  prices  for  war  materials,  future  as  well  as  past.  Once  that  objective 
is  reached  renegotiation  will  no  longer  be  necessary.  Under  renegotiation  after 
taxes,  however,  the  kind  of  recapture  involved  would  fall  wide  of  establishing 
reasonable  forward  prices.  Therefore,  renegotiation  would  never  be  terminated, 
because  each  past  period  of  a  contractor's  operations  wouW  require  reexamination. 

This  leads  to  a  basic  question  which  has  been  noticeably  neglected  in  previous 
discussions.  It  is  not  clear,  when  some  speak  of  renegotiation  after  taxes,  whether 
they  mean  renegotiation  after  the  final  determination  of  tax  liability  or  after  the 
tentatively  determined  tax  liability  at  the  time  of  the  conclusion  of  renegotiation. 

Assuming  the  first  meaning,  renegotiation  would  either  have  to  be  postponed 
until  (1)  final  determination  of  the  tax  liability  or  (2)  it  would  involve  a  very 
tentative  closing,  subject  to  reopening  on  final  determination  of  the  tax.  If  rene- 
gotiation were  to  be  postponed  until  after  claims  for  excess-profits  tax  relief  had 
finally  been  decided,  either  by  administrative  action  or  litigation,  or  until  the 
effect  of  the  carry-back  of  the  unused  excess-profits  tax  credit  and  the  net  operat- 
ing loss  were  determined,  it  would  become  a  meaningless  procedure  for  pricing. 
Forward-pricing,  which  is  one  of  the  most  essential  objectives  of  renegotiation, 
would  be  scrapped. 

If,  on  the  other  hand,  renegotiation  were  to  proceed  to  a  tentative  closing,  sub- 
ject to  reopening  on  final  determination  of  the  tax,  the  situation  would  be  no 


448       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

happier.  Assume  that  a  company  makes  large  excess  profits  in  1942,  pays  taxes 
thereon,  and  after  renegotiation,  agrees  to  and  makes  a  refund  of  a  portion  of  the 
remaining  profits.  In  1944  it  suffers  a  loss  which  it  carries  back  against  its  1942 
excess  profits,  thereby  becoming  entitled  to  a  tax  refund  for  1942.  The  Govern- 
ment should  then  be  entitled  to  reopen  the  1942  renegotiation  agreement.  The 
result  would  not  only  be  that  the  carry-back  provision  would  be  seriously  frus- 
trated; but,  from  the  standpoint  of  certainty,  no  one  could  possibly  know  whether 
or  when  a  renegotiation  agreement  would  become  conclusive.  This  situation 
would  contemplate  retaining  the  services  of  price-adjustment  boards  indefinitely. 

The  same  condition,  in  more  aggravated  form,  would  prevail  if  a  company 
should  file  and  litigate  a  claim  for  general  relief  which  might  not  culminate  in  a  tax 
refund  until  many  years  later.  The  prospect  of  further  renegotiation  at  the  time 
the  refund  is  ultimately  received  is  not  a  happy  one.  Yet  this  would  be  the 
inevitable  result. 

Assume,  on  the  other  hand,  that  after  completion  of  renegotiation  on  the  basis 
of  profits  after  taxes,  a  normal  tax  or  excess-profits  tax  deficiency  is  determined 
against  the  company.  It  is  not  known  whether  the  suggestion  of  renegotiation 
after  taxes  contemplates  that  the  amount  of  the  deficiency  would  be  retroactively 
applied  to  reduce  the  renegotiation  refund  already  paid  by  the  contractor.  In 
order  to  accomplish  that  result  it  is  clear  that  the  renegotiation  agreement  would 
have  to  be  subject  to  reopening  on  behalf  of  the  company.  A  renegotiation  agree- 
ment, which  may  at  any  time  in  the  future  be  reopened  by  either  party,  is  hardly 
an  effective  aid  to  economical  war  procurement. 

If,  however,  the  proponents  of  renegotiation  after  taxes  mean  the  tentatively 
determined  tax  liabilities  at  the  time  of  the  conclusion  of  renegotiation,  the  situa- 
tion becomes  even  more  unsatisfactory.  The  contractor  would  then  have  every 
incentive  to  overstate  its  tax  liability  by  postponing  applications  for  excess-profits 
tax  relief  or  other  bases  of  refund.  It  is  clear  that  any  future  reduction  in  taxes, 
whether  the  taxes  have  affirmatively  been  overstated  or  not,  and  irrespective  of 
the  reason  or  occasion  therefor,  would  mean  a  real  windfall  to  the  contractor. 
Here  again,  unless  under  this  proposal  the  contractor  would  waive  in  renegotiation 
any  rights  to  relief  or  other  bases  of  refund  and  accept  the  tentatively  determined 
tax  liabilitj^  as  final,  renegotiation  would  fail  to  result  in  reasonable,  fair  prices. 
On  the  other  hand,  if  there  should  be  such  a  waiver,  the  purpose  of  the  relief  pro- 
vision under  the  excess-profits  tax  and  other  provisions  of  the  revenue  laws  would 
be  defeated. 

Reserves 

I  shall  touch  briefly  now  upon  another  suggestion  which  overlaps  the  tax  field. 
This  suggestion  is  that  upon  renegotiation  an  allowance  be  made  for  post-war 
reconversion  and  allied  contingencies.  The  cjuestion  of  the  allowance  of  reserves 
for  post-war  contingencies  is  extraordinarily  complex  and  its  implications  reach 
deeply  into  the  tax  and  commercial  fields.  I  think  it  is  particularly  fortunate 
that  the  committee  has  so  timed  its  hearings  on  renegotiation  and  revenue  revision 
that  it  will  explore  these  implications  both  from  the  procurement  and  the  tax 
standpoints  before  it  decides  upon  the  appropriate  disposition  of  this  perplexing 
question. 

Whether  post-war  reserves  constitute  a  matter  germane  to  the  procurement 
mechanism  of  renegotiation  I  prefer  leaving  to  the  judgment  of  the  major  procure- 
ment agencies.  There  is  no  doubt,  however,  that  revenue  techniques  and  policies 
are  deeply  involved  in  the  question.  To  canalize  the  consideration  of  reserve 
allowances  into  the  field  of  procurement,  without  regard  to  its  vital  tax  implica- 
tions, would  be  to  attack  the  problem  piecemeal.  Under  the  present  revenue 
laws  whatever  reserve  allowances  are  made  on  renegotiation  will  leave  the  con- 
tractor with  more  income  subject  to  tax.  Therefore,  the  effectiveness  of  the  re- 
negotiation allowance  must  be  viewed  from  the  standpoint  of  the  accompanying 
tax  load.  Furthermore,  the  question  of  allowing  post-war  reserves  on  renegotia- 
tion must  be  examined  in  the  light  of  the  provision  which  Congress  has  already 
made  in  the  tax  laws  for  post-war  cost  allowances.  These  allowances  in  the  tax 
laws  are  embodied  in  the  loss  carry-back  and  unused  excess-profits  credit  carry- 
back sections.  Finally,  the  allowance  of  post-war  reserves  on  renegotiation  would 
not  solve  the  problem  from  the  standpoint  of  firms  which  are  not  engaged  in  war 
work  and  war  contractors  who  are  not  subject  to  renegotiation.  I  believe  that 
an  effective  consideration  of  the  post-war  reserve  problem  requires  the  more 
logical  setting  of  the  comprehensive  revenue  revision  study  which  this  committee 
will  shortly  begin. 

The  Treasury  has  been  engaged  in  an  analysis  of  the  problem  of  allowing  these 
reserves  for  tax  purposes.     In  this  study  we  have  had  the  cooperation  of  other 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       449 

Government  agencies,  representatives  of  industry,  and  various  interested  profes- 
sional groups.  The  conclusions  of  this  study  will  be  presented  to  your  Committee 
at  the  hearings  on  revenue  revision.  A  brief  statement  on  some  of  the  general 
problems  we  have  encountered  may  be  helpful. 

There  can  be  no  quarrel  in  principle  with  the  proposition  that  wartime  revenues 
should  be  charged  with  the  actual  costs  of  earning  that  revenue,  even  if  some  of 
these  costs  are  not  incurred  until  the  post-war  period.  As  I  have  stated,  the  Con- 
gress has  already  recognized  this  principle  in  enacting  a  2-year  carry-back  of  net 
operating  losses  and  unused  excess-profits  credits  in  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942. 
There  are,  of  course,  other  conceivable  methods  of  charging  wartime  income  with 
post-war  costs  directly  related  to  that  income.  In  considering  the  adoption  of  any 
of  these  methods  the  difficult  problems  involved  in  working  out  a  plan  which  will 
be  fair  both  to  the  Government  and  to  enterprise  must  be  faced.  Some  of  these 
major  problems  are:  (1)  estimating  now  the  magnitude  of  post-war  costs  charge- 
able to  wartiine  income;  (2)  determining  the  portion  of  post-war  costs  chargeable 
to  wartime  income;  and  (3)  administering  the  post-war  application  of  reserves. 

If,  on  the  other  hand,  the  principle  of  tracing  post-war  costs  back  to  wartime 
income  were  to  be  discarded,  and  post-war  reserves  were  to  be  allowed  without 
regard  to  their  applicability  to  wartime  income,  the  implications  for  the  post-war 
competitive  structure  would  be  far  reaching.  The  allowance  of  expenditures  for 
the  production  of  post-war  products  would  result  in  substantial  discriminatory 
benefits  to  certain  firms.  The  greatest  benefit  would  accrue  to  firms  making  the 
largest  profits  during  the  war,  and  therefore  subject  to  the  highest  tax  rates. 
The  benefit  would  be  as  great  as  81  cents  on  each  dollar  for  the  excess-profits 
taxpayer  and  40  cents  on  each  dollar  for  firms  earning  normal  profits  during  the 
war.  In  contrast,  the  firms  suffering  losses  during  the  war  period,  as  well  as  new 
post-war  firms,  would  receive  no  benefit  from  this  treatment  although  the  diffi- 
culties they  face  in  entering  post-war  markets  may  be  much  greater  than  those 
faced  by  the  war  producer. 

I  hope  to  discuss  these  and  other  aspects  of  the  post-war  reserve  problem  with 
your  committee  during  the  consideration  of  the  next  revenue  bill. 

There  may  be  other  questions  which  the  committee  has  in  mind  concerning 
renegotiation,  which  may  have  a  revenue  implication.  If  there  are  any,  I  shall  be 
glad  to  try  to  answer  them  at  whatever  stage  of  these  proceedings  the  committee 
may  desire. 

I  want  to  add  something  here  to  my  written  statement.  I  think  the  point  has 
been  made  previously  in  these  hearings,  and  I  want  simply  to  mention  the  point 
in  passing  that  we  would  have  to  allow,  for  instance,  in  the  case  of  a  corporation 
subject  to  the  excess-profits  tax,  five  times  as  much  in  reserves  as  the  amount  of 
reserve  which  we  ultimately  wish  to  bestow  upon  the  corporation  because  the 
amount  involved  in  the  reserve  would  be  subject  to  tax,  and  81  percent  of  it 
would  be  taken  away  by  the  excess-profits  tax  imposed  upon  it. 

I  hope  to  discuss  these  and  other  aspects  of  the  post-war  reserve  problem 
with  your  committee  during  the  consideration  of  the  revenue  bill. 

There  may  be  other  questions  which  I  have  not  covered  and  on  which  you 
may  wish  to  ask  me  some  questions  and  I  will  be  very  glad  to  try  to  answer  them. 


Exhibit  50 


Statement  of  Rcmdolph  E.  Paul,  General  Counsel  for  the  Treasury  Department, 
before  the  Suhcommittee  on  War  Contract  Termination  of  the  Senate  Committee 
on  Military  Affairs  on  termination  of  war  contracts,  October  27,  1943,  discussing 
the  relation  of  tax  policy  to  corporate  reconversion  problems 

A.  The  Problem  of  Post-war  Transition 

I  am  very  glad  to  appear  before  this  Subcommittee  of  the  Senate  Committee 
on  Military  Affairs  in  order  to  present  the  views  of  the  Treasury  on  certain 
aspects  of  contract  termination.  This  problem,  in  its  broader  aspects,  is  one  of 
national  concern,  since  it  relates  to  the  speed  and  smoothness  with  which  the 
Nation's  transition  from  a  wartime  to  a  peacetime  economy  can  be  effected. 

In  a  highly  integrated  economy,   such  as  ours,   the  speedy  reconversion  of 

more  than  half  of  our  men  and  machines  from  wartime  to  peacetime  production 

cannot  be  accomplished  without  some  dislocation.     The  period  of  transition  is 

likely  to  be  one  in  which  many  workers  will  find  themselves  without  jobs  and 

613185 — 45 30 


450       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

many  employers  will  suffer  losses.  It  is,  of  course,  in  the  interest  of  all  of  us  to 
keep  unemployment  at  a  low  level.  We  are  all  desirous  of  holding  post-war 
business  losses  to  the  lowest  possible  figure.  In  addition,  the  Treasury  is  especially 
interested  in  minimizing  unemployment  and  post-war  losses  since  both  will  have 
a  significant  efi'ect  upon  its  fiscal  operations.  Apart  from  the  obvious  effect  of 
a  low  level  of  employment  on  Federal  revenues,  protracted  unemployment 
during  the  post-war  years  will  draw  heavily  on  accumulated  unemployment 
insurance  reserves.  In  addition,  business  losses  will  require  substantial  refunds 
of  wartime  taxes. 

During  the  fiscal  year  1944,  war  expenditures  will  be  about  one-half  of  the 
gross  national  product.  Income  payments  to  individuals  for  the  same  period 
are  estimated  at  $151.8  billion.  Even  assuming  the  most  careful  planning  of 
Government  cancelations,  the  termination  of  hostilities  is  likely  to  be  attended 
by  a  severe  reduction  in  the  flow  of  Government  funds.  Such  a  reduction  will 
in  turn  be  reflected  in  lower  income  payments  to  individuals.  It  is  possible  and 
important  to  plan  now  for  the  maintenance  of  a  high  national  income  after  the 
war.  I  recognize  that  wartime  levels  of  income  and  employment  may  not  be 
maintained  under  peacetime  conditions.  However,  if  income  and  employment 
are  to  be  maintained  at  high  peacetime  levels,  private  investment  and  spending 
will  need  to  be  stepped  up  to  replace  Government  investment  and  spending. 

Three  general  situations  must  be  forestalled  if  the  transition  from  a  wartime 
to  a  peacetime  economy  is  to  be  satisfactorily  effected.  In  the  first  place, 
the  inevitable  decline  in  the  level  of  income  payments  following  the  termination 
of  hostilities  may  become  cumulative  and  result  in  severe  deflation  and  a  low 
level  of  employment.  If  the  workers  dismissed  from  their  jobs  in  war  industries 
are  not  given  new  work  in  the  production  of  civilian  goods  within  a  relatively 
short  space  of  time,  there  is  the  danger  that  this  initial  reduction  in  purchasing 
power  will  be  followed  by  a  further  reduction  through  the  curtailment  of  em- 
ployment in  the  civilian  goods  sector  of  the  economy.  Although  the  possibility  of 
sharp  deflation  following  the  termination  of  war  orders  can  not  be  overlooked, 
the  tremendous  backlog  of  $55  billion  of  purchasing  power  now  held  in  the  form 
of  war  savings,  coupled  with  an  unprecedented  volume  of  unsatisfied  consumer 
wants,  make  such  a  development  unlikely  during  the  period  immediately  fol- 
lowing the  close  of  the  war  (see  exhibit  A). 

A  second  possible  danger  of  the  transition  period  is  the  possibility  that  the  flow 
of  consumer  goods  will  not  respond  promptly  enough  to  match  the  release  of  long- 
pent-up  purchasing  power.  War  savings,  a  substantial  amount  of  which  have 
been  accumulated  in  the  form  of  currency,  checking  accounts,  and  cashable  se- 
curities, may  pour  into  the  consumer  goods  market  faster  than  industry  can 
turn  out  its  normal  complement  of  peacetime  goods.  Thus,  delay  in  recon- 
version may  lay  the  basis  for  substantial  price  increases  and  possibly  for  severe 
inflation.  The  extent  of  this  da^nger  depends,  of  course,  on  the  degree  to  which 
we  continue  rationing,  priorities,  and  price  ceilings. 

A  third  situation  may  materialize  which  would  have  serious  consequences  on 
the  post-war  competitive  structure  of  business  enterprise.  Nearly  50  percent  of 
American  industry  is  currently  engaged  in  the  production  of  war  goods.  The  extent 
to  which  most  of  these  producers  can  successfully  reestablish  themselves  in  the 
post-war  markets  for  peacetime  products  depends,  in  large  part,  upon  the  speed 
with  which  they  can  reconvert  their  plants  and  get  them  into  peacetime  produc- 
tion. Delay  in  reconversion  may  mean  the  loss  of  markets  which  will  be  either 
difficult  or  impossible  to  recapture.  Thus,  the  competitive  position  of  corpora- 
tions which  are,  for  any  reason,  prevented  from  reconverting  promptly,  will 
be  impaired.  If,  as  may  well  be,  such  a  development  would  operate  to  the 
disadvantage  of  small  and  medium-size  concerns,  it  would  encourage  the  growth 
of  monopolies. 

Most  business  firms  will  be  more  than  willing — they  will  be  anxious — to  make 
the  expenditures  necessary  for  the  reconversion  of  plant  and  equipment  and  the 
production  of  peacetime  products.     Their  ability  to  do  so  depends,  however, 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       451 

upon  the  availability  of  liquid  funds  with  which  to  pay  labor  and  purchase  raw 
materials.  This  in  turn  depends  in  part  upon  the  manner  in  which  the  problem 
of  contract  termination  is  handled,  particularly  the  speed  with  which  the  Govern- 
ment is  prepared  to  meet  its  obligations  to  contractors  and  subcontractors. 

It  is  generally  accepted  that  two  factors  in  the  wartime  situations  will  accen- 
tuate the  post-war  cash  problem.  In  the  first  place,  high  taxes,  possibly  imposed 
on  overstated  profits,  may  create  a  difficult  post-war  financial  problem  for  many 
firms.  In  the  second  place,  the  demand  for  high  levels  of  wartime  production 
has,  in  many  instances,  tied  up  working  capital  in  inventories  and  work  in  process. 
Unless  the  provisions  permitting  the  carry-b^ck  of  losses  and  unused  excess- 
profits  credit,  and  the  refund  of  wartime  taxes,  can  be  made  to  operate  speedily, 
and  unless  the  working  capital  tied  up  in  Government  contracts  can  be  liquidated 
promptly,  the  ability  of  many  firms  to  survive  the  transition  period  may  be 
impaired. 

B.  The  Need  for  Speeding  up  Repayment  of  Taxes  under  the  Carry-backs 

1.    THE  present  situation 

In  preference  to  several  alternative  adjustments,  Congress  passed,  as  part  of 
the  Revenue  Act  of  1942,  a  two-year  carry-back  of  losses  and  unused  excess- 
profits  credits.  These  carry-backs  constituted  an  addition  to  the  then  existing 
two-year  carry-over  of  such  losses  and  credits. 

The  broad  outlines  of  the  carry-back  provisions  mav  be  briefly  summarized. 
If  a  net  ojjerating  loss  occurs  in  any  taxable  year,  it  may  be  carried  back  and 
offset  against  income  earned  in  the  two  previous  years.  Losses  must  be  carried 
back  first  to  the  second  preceding  year  and  then  to  the  immediately  preceding 
year.  In  each  year  losses  must  be  offset  first  against  taxable  excess  profits 
and  then  against  normal  profits.  The  entire  income  of  the  earliest  year  must 
be  exhausted  before  the  unused  loss  balance  may  be  carried  forward  against 
income  earned  in  the  following  year. 

Should  any  taxable  excess  profits  remain  in  the  two  preceding  years  after 
this  loss  carrj'-back  adjustment,  the  unused  excess-profits  credit  may  be  carried 
back  against  taxable  excess  profits  in  the  earliest  year  and  then  against  such 
profits  in  th6  later  year.  Any  part  of  a  net  operating  loss  or  unused  excess- 
profits  credit  not  utilized  as  a  carry-back  may  be  carried  forward  for  two  years; 
taken  together,  the  carry -backs  and  the  carry-forwards  may  accomplish  a  five-year 
averaging  of  income. 

These  carry-backs,  we  are  convinced,  will  provide  a  fully  adequate  response  to 
all  reasonable  needs  for  reserves  not  otherwise  provided.  While  business  will 
not  be  free  of  problems,  it  would  be  easy  to  exaggerate  its  prospective  post-war 
plight  in  regard  to  available  assets.  In  addition  to  accumulated  surplus,  the 
details  of  which  I  shall  develop  in  a  few  moments,  we  must  take  into  account 
the  relief  provisions  in  the  present  law.  The  potential  importance  of  the  carry- 
backs mav  be  gauged  by  reference  to  the  profits  of  corporations  for  the  years 
1942  and '1943.  The  net  income  before  taxes  in  1942  and  1943  of  $44.3  billion 
would  be  chargeable  with  losses  incurred  in  1944  if  the  war  ended  in  that  year. 
Even  if  the  losses  were  not  incurred  until  1945,  1943  income  alone  could  absorb 
losses  of  $23  billion. 

In  addition  it  should  be  noted  that  many  corporations  will  obtain  relief  from 
excess-profits  taxes  under  the  general  relief  provision  (section  722)  which  permits 
numerous  adjustments  for  constructing  a  normal  earnings  credit  higher  than  the 
average  profits  earned  in  the  pre-war  base  period  years.  Up  to  October  19,  1943, 
the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  received  30,150  applications  involving  $2.3 
billion  of  claims  against  excess-profits  tax  liabilities  of  $4.6  billion.  These  claims 
amount  to  nearly  half  of  the  total  liabilities  of  the  filing  corporations. 

The  Treasury  believes  that  the  large  effective  reserves  which  will  emerge  from 
operation  of  the  present  carry-back  and  relief  provisions  go  a  long  way  to  protect 
business  from  wartime  taxation  on  illusory  profits.  At  the  same  time,  it  is  real- 
ized that  unless  the  resulting  refunds  or  credits  can  be  made  more  speedily  avail- 
able to  the  taxpayers  than  is  likely  to  be  possible  under  the  present  law.  the 
stabilizing  effects  of  the  refunds  will  be  substantially  reduced 


452       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Under  present  law  refunds  resulting  from  these  carry-backs  must  be  claimed  in 
the  usual  manner  and  subject  to  the  customary  administrative  procedure  neces- 
sary to  determine  the  merits  of  the  claim  and  the  exact  amount  due.  While 
the  necessity  for  careful  administration  cannot  be  escaped,  it  must  be  recognized 
that  the  present  method  involves  a  considerable  delay  in  making  funds  available 
to  the  taxpayer. 

2.  THE  treasury's  PROPOSALS 

The  Treasury  has  been  considering  means  of  accelerating  refunds  under  the 
carry-backs.  We  have  submitted  to  the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  a  proposal 
intended  to  facilitate  a  quick  improvement  in  the  cash  position  of  taxpayers 
whose  situation  in  this  respect  has  suffered  by  reason  of  post-war  adjustments. 
As  tentatively  worked  out,  it  would  embody  the  following  principal  features: 

1.  If,  for  any  taxable  year  beginning  prior  to  the  expiration  of  some  reasonable 
post-war  period,  a  corporate  taxpayer  anticipates  the  realization  of  a  net  operating 
loss  or  the  existence  of  an  unused  excess-profits  credit  which  could  ultimately  be 
used  as  a  carry-back  against  the  taxable  income  of  the  two  prior  years,  it  may 
apply  for  complete  or  partial  deferment  of  the  quarterly  tax  payinents  due  in 
that  year  with  respect  to  the  preceding  year's  taxable  income  and  also  of  any 
payments  of  deficiencies  in  tax  which  are  due. 

2.  The  extent  of  the  postponement  of  these  payments  would  be  limited  to  the 
amount  of  the  refunds  of  taxes  that  would  result  from  the  anticipated  carry-backs. 

3.  A  statement  of  the  estimated  amount  of  these  losses  or  unused  credits  and 
of  the  resulting  refunds  would  be  required  to  be  filed  with  the  Collector  of  Internal 
Revenue,  together  with  supporting  data  sufficient  to  satisfy  him  of  the  reasonable- 
ness of  the  taxpayer's  claim.  Generally  speaking,  such  data  would  include  a 
statement  of  profit  and  loss  for  at  least  the  preceding  quarter  and  the  business 
circumstances  tending  to  support  a  projection  of  the  loss  results,  or  of  earnings 
below  the  credit  level,  for  all  or  the  remainder  of  the  taxable  year.  The  latter 
information  would  be  of  particular  importance  in  instances  where  the  estimated 
loss  or  credit  claimed  is  greater  than  a  proportionate  projection  of  the  quarterly 
results  would  indicate.  Evidence  of  falling  earnings  or  of  anticipated  reconversion 
costs,  inventory  losses,  dismissal  wage  payments,  contract  terminations  and 
similar  items  would  be  pertinent  in  this  connection. 

4.  Partial  protection  should  be  given  to  the  revenue  by  permitting  acceleration 
of  the  collection  of  deferred  payments,  or  other  protective  measures,  where  subse- 
quent circumstances  indicate  the  ultimate  collection  of  tax  to  be  in  jeopardy. 

5.  When  the  taxable  year  from  which  a  carry-back  is  anticipated  is  completed, 
the  usual  return  will  be  filed  and  a  precise  computation  of  the  refunds  to  be  claimed 
can  then  be  made.  The  amount  of  the  deferred  payments  would  first  be  offset 
against  the  claimed  amount  of  refunds.  Any  excess  of  deferred  payments  would 
be  collected  with  interest.  On  the  other  hand,  it  is  proposed  that  payment  of 
any  balance  of  refunds  due  would  be  accelerated. 

The  procedure  for  acceleration  would,  it  is  believed,  involve  the  making  by 
the  Commissioner  of  a  tentative  determination  of  the  amount  due.  This  would 
be  credited  or  refunded  within  the  shortest  possible  time,  probably  in  from  sixty 
to  ninety  days.  Thereafter,  the  final  determination  of  claims  for  refund  would 
proceed  in  ordinary  course;  on  ultimate  readjustment  the  taxpayer  would  repay 
any  erroneous  refunds  or  the  Government  would  pay  any  balance  of  refunds 
remaining  unpaid. 

C.  The  Need  for  Prompt  Payment  in  Connection  with  the  Termination 

OF  War  Contracts 

The  speeding  up  of  tax  refunds  under  the  carry-back  provisions  of  the  tax  law 
should  meet  one  phase  of  the  post-war  cash  problem.  There  is,  however,  another 
problem — the  cash  problem  arising  if  working  capital  is  even  temporarily  frozen 
in  wartime  inventories. 

The  magnitude  of  this  problem  is  not  easy  to  assess  at  the  present  time.  V\  e 
do  not  know  how  many  firms  will  find  themselves  in  a  highly  illiquid  condition 
after  the  war,  because  we  do  not  know  how  long  the  war  will  last — nor  do  we 
know  whether  it  will  terminate  gradually  or  abruptly.     The  longer  the  war  lasts, 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       453 

and  the  more  gradual  its  termination,  the  easier  it  will  be  for  war  contractors  to 
finance  their  reconversion.  This  is  true  irrespective  of  the  speed  with  which  con- 
tracts are  settled  and  compensation  for  losses  is  paid.  However,  it  may  well  be 
that  we  should  provide  additional  safeguards  to  business  in  case  an  abrupt  termina- 
tion of  a  relatively  short  war  places  a  high  premium  on  cash  during  the  transition 
period. 

If  the  war  should  end  at  the  close  of  this  year,  American  corporations  as  a  group 
would  be  in  an  enviable  position  as  to  profits  and  surplus.  Treasury  estimates 
submitted  to.the  Ways  and  Means  Committee  indicate  that  the  net  income  retained 
by  profit  corporations  after  taxes  and  after  net  dividends  paid  will  aggregate  for 
the  years  1941,  1942,  and  1943  $15.5  billion,  or  two  and  a  half  times  the  amounts 
retained  during  the  pre-war  years  1936-1939.     (See  exhibit  B.) 

Additions  to  surplus  do  not,  of  course,  automatically  insure  liquidity.  Liquid- 
ity depends  on  the  kinds  of  assets  held  by  a  corporation  and  not  upon  the  amount  of 
its  surplus.  To  the  extent  that  retained  earnings  are  tied  up  in  fixed  plant,  inven- 
tories, or  receivables,  they  will  not  be  available  for  meeting  the  expenses  of  transi- 
tion to  peacetime  operation.  Neither  will  they  provide  working  capital  needed  to 
carry  on  peacetime  employment  and  production. 

However,  recent  studies  of  the  holdings  of  liquid  assets  by  individuals  and  cor- 
porations suggest  that  for  corporations  as  a  whole  these  holdings  have  risen  even 
faster  than  retained  earnings.  In  an  article  appearing  in  the  Survey  of  Current 
Business  '  it  is  estimated  that  all  corporations  increased  their  holdings  of  currency, 
bank  deposits  and  United  States  Government  securities  by  $19  billion  during  the 
two  years,  1941  and  1942.  If  these  holdings  of  liquid  assets  are  increased  as  much 
in  1943  as  they  were  in  1942  corporations  will  for  the  years  1941,  1942  and  1943 
have  increased  their  liquid  assets  by  $33  billion. 

This  general  picture  of  the  current  financial  position  of  corporate  enterprise 
does  not  indicate  the  probability  of  a  serious  post-war  cash  problem.  It  is 
recognized,  however,  that  the  high  degree  of  liquidity  for  corporations  as  a  whole 
does  not  mean  that  all  corjiorations  will  be  in  a  satisfactory  financial  condition 
at  the  end  of  the  war.  There  are  cases  where  working  capital  is  almost  entirely 
tied  up  in  wartime  inventories  and  goods  in  process.  In  some  cases  the  demands 
for  ever  expanding  output  have  made  it  impossible  to  set  aside  a  reserve  of  liquid 
assets  out  of  earnings.  A  large  number  of  these  cases  are  found  in  industries 
which  have  enjoyed  a  phenomenal  growth  since  the  beginning  of  the  war,  espe- 
cially among  the  smaller  corporations.  To  protect  such  firms  from  the  impact 
of  the  post-war  readjustments  it  is  important  that  we  speed  up  settlements  arising 
out  of  contract  termination  and  arising  also  from  tax  refunds. 

D.  Conclusions 

Our  principal  concern  after  the  war  will  be  to  maintain  a  high  level  of  national 
income,  high  levels  of  business  activity  and  full  employment.  This  is  especially 
important  in  view  of  the  present  high  levels  of  income  and  employment  to  which 
workers  and  employers  alike  have  become  accustomed. 

The  termination  of  the  war  will  find  many  business  concerns  with  cash  claims 
against  the  Government.  Some  will  have  claims  incident  to  the  settlement  of 
war  contracts;  others  will  have  claims  for  tax  refunds  due  to  the  overpayment  of 
taxes  on  wartime  incomes.  The  interests  of  the  Nation  can  be  served  best  by 
providing  now  for  ways  and  means  of  expediting  the  release  of  suclo.  cash  claims 
to  private  enterprise  immediately  after  the  termination  of  the  war. 

We  must  not  permit  delayed  settlements  of  contracts  and  delayed  refunds  of 
tax  overpayments  to  interfere  with  the  speedy  readjustment  to  peacetime  produc- 
tion. We  stand  to  lose  if  we  strive  for  the  last  degree  of  perfection  in  the  auditing 
of  such  settlements.  Our  main  task  is  to  accomplish  the  change-over  to  a  peace 
economy  without  delay  and  with  the  maximum  encouragement  from  the  Govern- 
ment by  making  available  to  private  enterprise  speedily  the  cash  which  will 
ultimately  be  due  to  business  concerns.

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 


We  must  also  see  to  it  that  in  the  readjustment  to  peacetime  production  after 
the  war  the  position  of  small  business  is  not  permitted  to  deteriorate.  Small 
business  must  be  able  to  compete  with  large  business  in  recapturing  the  post-war 
markets. 

In  closing,  I  should  like  to  emphasize  the  fact  that  the  problem  of  post-war 
adjustments  is  not  one  which  can  be  solved  through  tax  measures  alone.  The 
allowance  of  deductible  reserves  is  not  necessary  to  provide  adequate  tax  relief; 
moreover,  it  would  result  in  gross  inequities.  It  should  also  be  noted  that  ade- 
quate relief  would  not  be  afforded  by  deductible  reserves.  They  would  not  bear 
any  necessary  relationship  to  the  need  for  cash.  For  many  profitable  corpora- 
tions, reserves  set  up  to  secure  tax  deduction  would  unnecessarily  increase  liquid 
assets,  while  for  unprofitable  corporations — which  might  be  hardest  hit  in  the 
post-war  adjustment — the  deduction  of  reserves  would  bring  no  advantage. 

To  rely  upon  tax  measures  to  accomplish  what  other  governmental  action  can 
alone  accomplish  is  to  do  gross  inequity  without  solving  any  problem  at  all.  The 
needs  of  business  for  cash  cannot  be  met  without  the  prompt  liquidation  of  war 
contracts.

Exhibit  51 

Message  from  the  President  of  the  United  States  returning  unthout  approval  the  bill 
(H.  R.  3687)  entitled  "An  act  to  provide  revenue,  and  for  other  purposes,"  Febru- 
ary 22,  19U 

To  the  House  of  Representatives: 

I  return  herewith,  without  my  approval,  H.  R.  3687,  entitled  "An  act  to  pro- 
vide revenue,  and  for  other  purpo.ses." 

I  regret  that  I  find  it  necessary  in  the  midst  of  thi.s  great  war  to  be  compelled 
to  do  this  in  what  I  regard  as  the  public  interest. 


456       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Many  months  ago,  after  careful  examination  of  the  finances  of  the  Nation,  I 
asked  the  Congress  for  legislation  to  raise  $10,500,000,000  over  and  above  the 
existing  revenue  sj'stem.  Since  then  persons  prominent  in  our  national  life  have 
stated  in  no  uncertain  terms  that  my  figure  was  too  low. 

The  measure  before  me  purports  to  increase  the  national  revenue  by  a  little 
over  $2,000,000,000.  Actuallv,  however,  the  bill  in  its  net  results  will  enrich  the 
Treasury  by  less  than  $1,000,000,000. 

As  a  tax  bill,  therefore,  I  am  compelled  to  decide  that  it  is  wholly  ineffective 
toward  that  end. 

More  specificall}'  the  bill  purports  to  provide  $2,100,000,000  in  new  revenues. 
At  the  same  time  it  cancels  out  automatic  increases  in  the  social  security  tax, 
which  would  yield  $1,100,000,000.  In  addition  it  grants  relief  from  existing  taxes 
which  would  cost  the  Treasury  at  least  $150,000,000  and  possibly  much  moi:e. 

In  this  respect  it  is  not  a  tax  bill  but  a  tax-relief  bill  providing  relief 
not  for  the  needy  but  for  the  greedy. 

The  elimination  of  automatic  increases  provided  in  the  social  security  law  comes 
at  a  time  when  industry  and  labor  are  best  able  to  adjust  themselves  to  such 
increases.  These  automatic  increases  are  required  to  meet  the  claims  that  are 
being  built  up  against  the  social  security  fund.  Such  a  postponement  does  not 
seem  wise. 

The  clause  relating  to  renegotiating  of  war  contracts  terminates  the  present 
renegotiation  authority  on  December  31  of  this  year.  This  seems  unwise  at  this 
time  because  no  person  can  at  present  determine  what  a  renegotiation  time  limit 
should  be.  More  experience  is  needed.  The  formal  right  of  appeal  to  The  Tax 
Court  that  is  granted  by  this  bill  is  an  inept  provision.  The  i^resent  Tax  Court 
exists  for  a  wholly  different  purpose  and  does  not  have  the  personnel  or  the  time 
to  assume  this  heavy  load. 

The  bill  is  replete  with  provisions  which  not  only  afford  indefensible  special 
privileges  to  favored  groups  but  sets  dangerous  precedents  for  the  future.  This 
tendency  toward  the  embodiment  of  special  privileges  in  our  legislation  is  in 
itself  sufficiently  dangerous  to  counterbalance  the  loss  of  a  very  inadequate  sum 
in  additional  revenues." 

Among  these  special  privileges  are: 

(o)  Permission  for  corporations  reorganized  in  bankruptcy  to  retain  the 
high  excess-profits  credit  and  depreciation  basis  attributable  to  the  contri- 
butions of  stockholders  who  are  usually  eliminated  in  the  reorganization. 
This  privilege  inures  to  the  benefit  of  bondholders  who,  in  many  cases,  have 
purchased  their  bonds  in  the  speculative  market  for  far  less  than  their  face 
value.  It  may  open  the  door  to  further  windfall  profits  in  this  market  be- 
cause of  the  undeserved  benefit  received  by  reorganized  corporations. 

(6)  Percentage  depletion  allowances,  questionable  in  any  case,  are  now 
extended  to  such  minerals  as  vermiculite,  potash,  feldspar,  mica,  talc,  lepi- 
dolite,  barite  and  spodumene.  In  the  case  of  some  of  these  minerals  the 
War  Production  Board  refused  to  certify  that  current  output  was  inadequate 
for  war  needs. 

(c)  The  lumber  industry'  is  permitted  to  treat  income  from  the  cutting  of 
timber,  including  selective  logging,  as  a  capital  gain  rather  than  annual 
income.  As  a  grower  and  seller  of  timber,  I  think  that  timber  should  be 
treated  as  a  cro))  and  therefore  as  income  when  it  is  sold.  This  would  encour- 
age reforestation. 

(d)  Natural-gas  pipe  lines  are  exempted  from  the  excess-profits  tax  with- 
out justification  and  in  a  manner  which  might  well  lead  oil  companies  to 
request  similar  treatment  for  their  pipe  lines. 

(e)  Commercial  air  lines  are  granted  an  unjustifiable  extension  of  the  tax 
subsidy  on  their  air-mail  contracts. 

It  has  been  suggested  by  some  that  I  should  give  my  approval  to  this  bill  on 
the  ground  that  having  asked  the  Congress  for  a  loaf  of  bread  to  take  care  of  this 
war  for  the  sake  of  this  and  succeeding  generations,  I  should  be  content  with  a 
small  piece  of  crust.  I  might  have  done  so  if  I  had  not  noted  that  the  small 
piece  of  crust  contained  so  many  extraneous  and  inedible  materials. 

In  regard  to  that  part  of  the  bill  which  relates  to  wholly  unobjectionable  tax 
increases,  may  I  respectfully  suggest  to  the  Congress  that  the  excise  taxes  can 
easily  and  quickly  be  levied.  This  can  be  accomplished  by  the  passage  of  a 
simple  joint  resolution  enacting  those  provisions  of  the  bill  which  increase  the 
excise  taxes.  I  should  be  glad  to  approve  such  a  measure.  This  would  preserve 
the  principal  revenue  provisions  of  the  bill  without  the  objectionable  features 
I  have  criticized. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       457 

In  another  most  important  respect  this  bill  will  disappoint  and  fail  the 
American  taxpayers.  Every  one  of  them,  including  ourselves,  is  disappointed, 
confused,  and  bewildered  over  the  practical  results  of  last  year's  tax  bill.  The 
Ruml  plan  was  not  the  product  of  this  administration.  It  resulted  from  a  wide- 
spread campaign  based  on  the  attractive  slogan  of  "pay  as  you  go."  But,  as 
was  said  many  years  ago  in  the  State  of  New  York  in  regard  to  that  same  slogan, 
"You  don't  pay  and  you  don't  go." 

The  Nation  will  readily  understand  that  it  is  not  the  fault  of  the  Treasury 
Department  that  the  income  taxpayers  are  flooded  with  forms  to  fill  out  which 
are  so  complex  that  even  certified  public  accountants  cannot  interpret  them. 
No,  it  is  squarely  the  fault  of  the  Congress  of  the  United  States  in  using  language 
in  drafting  the  law  which  not  even  a  dictionary  or  a  thesaurus  can  make  clear. 

The  American  taxpayer  has  been  promised  of  late  that  tax  laws  and  returns 
will  be  drastically  simplified.  This  bill  does  not  make  good  that  promise.  It 
ignores  the  most  obvious  step  toward  simplifying  taxes  by  failing  to  eliminate 
the  clumsy  Victory  tax.  For  fear  of  dropping  from  the  tax  rolls  those  taxpayers 
who  are  at  the  bottom  of  the  income  scale,  the  bill  retains  the  Victory  tax — 
while  at  the  same  time  it  grants  extensive  concessions  to  many  special  interest 
groups. 

The  suggestion  of  withholding  at  graduated  rates,  which  would  relieve  millions 
of  people  of  the  task  of  filiifg  declarations  of  estimated  income,  was  not  adopted. 

I  trust,  therefore,  that  the  Congress,  after  all  these  delays,  will  act  as  quickly 
as  possible  for  simplification  of  the  tax  laws  which  will  make  possible  the  simplifi- 
cation of  the  forms  and  computations  now  demanded  of  the  individual  taxpayers. 
These  taxpayers,  now  engaged  in  an  efl'ort  to  win  the  greatest  war  this  Nation 
has  ever  faced,  are  not  in  a  mood  to  study  higher  mathematics. 


The  responsibility  of  the  Congress  of  the  United  States  is  to  supply  the 
Government  of  the  United  States  as  a  whole  with  adequate  revenue  for  wartime 
needs,  to  provide  fiscal  support  for  the  stabilization  program,  to  hold  firm  against 
the  tide  of  special  privileges,  and  to  achieve  real  simplicity  for  millions  of  small 
income  taxpayers. 

In  the  interest  of  strengthening  the  home  front,  in  the  interest  of  speeding 
the  day  of  victory,  I  urge  the  earliest  possible  action. 

Franklin  D.  Roosevelt. 

The  White  House,  February  22,  1944. 


Exhibit  52 


Letter  to  Chairman  Walter  F.  George,  Senate  Finance  Committee,  and  Chairman 
Robert  L.  Doughton,  House  Committee  on  Ways  and  Means,  from  Secretary 
Morgenthau,  March  10,  1944,  relative  to  individual  income  tax  simplification 

March  10,  1944. 

My  Dear  Mr.  Chairman:  I  understand  that  the  staflf  of  the  Joint  Committee 
and  the  Treasury  tax  staff  are  about  to  complete  their  work  on  simplification  of 
individual  income-tax  returns.  I  am  told  they  hope  to  be  ready  to  submit  their 
joint  recommendations  to  the  Committee  on  Ways  and  Means  of  the  House 
shortly. 

Speedy  enactment  of  the  proposed  legislation  seems  to  me  to  be  of  the  very 
first  importance.  Obviously  here  is  one  sphere  within  which  we  can  appreciably 
lighten  the  load  of  inconvenience  which  the  war  has  placed  on  American  citizens. 

It  is  my  hope  that  in  order  to  expedite  passage  of  this  measure,  your  Com- 
mittee will  restrict  this  bill  solely  to  simplification.     I  wish  to  assure  you  of  the 
complete  cooperation  of  the  Treasury  Department  in  working  with  your  Com- 
mittee toward  the  best  possible  simplification  of  our  individual  income-tax  s\'stem. 
Sincerely  3'ours, 

Henry  Morgenthau,  Jr.

supervisor  as  early  as  practicable  on  the  first  day  of  such  absence,  or  as  soon  there-

charged  to  annual  leave  or  leave  without  pay,  as  the  circumstances  may  justify. 
Requests  for  sick  leave  for  medical,  dental,  or  optical  examination  or  treatment 
shall  be  submitted  for  approval  prior  to  the  beginning  of  the  leave. 

"Section  3.5  Written  application  on  the  prescribed  form  for  grant  of  sick  leave

ical certificate.  Such  certificate  shall  be  filed  within  15  days  after  return  to  duty: 
Provided,  That  when  a  medical  certificate  cannot  reasonably  be  obtained,  a  cer- 
tificate of  the  employee  relating  the  facts  incident  to  the  illness  may  be  accepted.

ment shall  be  supported  by  a  medical  certificate. 

"Section  3.6  When  sickness  occurs  within  a  period  of  annual  leave  and  lasts  in 
excess  of  5  work  days,  the  period  of  illness  may  be  charged  as  sick  leave  and  the 
charge  against  annual  leave  reduced  accordingly.  Application  for  such  substitu-

a  period  of  absence  in  a  non-pay  status,  unless  and  until  there  is  a  return  to  actual

nite employees  not  in  excess  of  30  days :  Provided,  That  no  advances  of  sick  leave 
shall  be  made  to  any  employee  unless  the  absence  from  duty  on  account  of  illness 
is  for  a  period  or  periods  of  5  or  more  consecutive  work  days;  that  every  applica- 
tion for  advance  leave  shall  be  supported  by  a  medical  certificate;  that  the  total 
of  such  advances  shall  be  charged  against  sick  leave  subsequently  credited.  Sick 
leave  may  be  advanced  irrespective  of  whether  the  employee  has  annual  leave  to 
his  credit. 

"Section  3.9  Sick  leave  shall  not  be  advanced  to  an  employee  holding  a  limited 
appointment,  or  one  expiring  on  a  specified  date,  in  excess  of  the  total  sick  leave

494       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

FOREIGN    SERVICE 

Permanent  employees  stationed  in  Hawaii,  Puerto  Rico,  Alaska,  the  Virgin 
Islands,  the  Philippine  Islands,  the  Canal  Zone,  or  abroad  in  countries  not  contig- 
uous to  the  Continental  United  States,  will  be  allowed  30  days'  annual  leave,  ex- 
clusive of  Sundays  and  holidays.  Such  employees  who  have  served  continuously 
1  year  in  the  Treasury  Department  and  are  not  leaving  the  service,  may  be  granted 
leave  at  any  time  during  a  calendar  year  not  to  exceed  30  days,  plus  such  unused 
leave  as  may  have  been  accumulated  from  previous  years.  Employees  in  the 
places  named,  who  have  served  less  than  1  year,  may  be  granted  leave  at  the  rate 
of  2h  days  per  month,  as  earned,  for  each  month  of  service.  The  leave  of  em- 
ployees in  the  places  named  who  have  been  accustomed  to  living  on  the  mainland 
of  the  United  States  may  be  cumulative  in  an  amount  not  exceeding  90  days. 

No  leave  will  be  charged  against  a  permanent  employee  who  is  granted  leave 
under  the  provisions  of  the  above  paragraph  who  is  stationed  in  Hawaii,  Puerto 
Rico,  Alaska,  the  Virgin  Islands,  the  Philippine  Islands,  the  Canal  Zone,  or  abroad 
in  countries  not  contiguous  to  the  Continental  United  States,  who  has  been  accus- 
tomed to  living  on  the  mainland  of  the  United  States,  for  the  time  necessarily 
consumed  in  travel  from  the  employee's  station  direct  to  the  mainland  of  the 
United  States  and  return  to  his  station. 

SICK  LEAVE 

Referring  to  Part  III,  sec.  3.3  of  Executive  Order  No.  9414  above  quoted, 
cases  of  personal  illness  or  exposure  to  contagious  diseases  must  be  reported  at 
once  to  the  office  to  which  the  employee  is  attached.  Proof  of  negligence  or  of 
willful  misstatement  in  reporting  such  exposure  to  contagion  will  be  sufficient 
cause  for  discipline. 

All  requests  for  sick  leave  on  account  of  enforced  absence,  due  to  exposure  to  a 
contagious  disease,  must  be  supported  by  a  certificate  from  the  attending  physician. 

The  Department  will  hold  employees  strictly  accountable  for  the  truth  of 
statements  appearing  in  applications  for  sick  leave,  and  the  responsible  adminis- 
trative officer  will  investigate  circumstances  coming  to  his  attention  which  may 
appear  to  be  inconsistent  with  such  statements.  Proof  of  any  willful  misstate- 
ment or  of  any  attempt  of  an  employee  to  mislead  or  deceive  official  superiors, 
directly  or  indirectly,  in  regard  to  an  application  for  leave  on  account  of  sickness, 
will  be  sufficient  cause  for  discipline. 

All  requests  for  advanced  sick  leave  shall  be  accompanied  by  the  employee's 
statement  showing  whether  or  not  he  was  continuously  confined  to  home  or  hos- 
pital and  under  the  immediate  care  of  a  registered  practicing  physician  or  other 
practitioner. 

Special  leaves  of  absence  to  be  given  disabled  veterans  in  need  of  medical  treatment 

"With  respect  to  medical  treatment  of  disabled  veterans  who  are  employed  in 
the  executive  civil  service  of  the  United  States,  it  is  hereby  ordered  that,  upon 
the  presentation  of  an  official  statement  from  duly  constituted  medical  authority 
that  medical  treatment  is  required,  such  annual  or  sick  leave  as  may  be  permitted 
by  law  and  such  leave  without  pay  as  may  be  necessary  shall  be  granted  by  the 
proper  supervisory  officer  to  a  disabled  veteran  in  order  that  the  veteran  may 
receive  such  treatment,  all  without  penalty  to  his  efficiency  rating. 

"The  granting  of  such  leave  is  contingent  upon  the  veteran's  giving  prior 
notice  of  definite  days  and  hours  of  absence  required  for  medical  treatment  in 
order  that  arrangements  may  be  made  for  carrying  on  the  work  during  his  ab- 
sence", (Executive  Order  July  17,  1930.) 

LEAVE    WITHOUT   PAY 

Leave  without  pay  shall  be  granted  and  charged  in  multiples  of  one  hour, 
with  a  minimum  charge  of  one  hour. 

If  leave  without  pay  on  account  of  illness  is  applied  for,  a  certificate  of  the 
attending  physician  should  be  furnished.  If  no  physician  was  in  attendance, 
the  reasons  therefor  should  be  given.  If  leave  without  pay  is  requested  for  any 
reason  other  than  illness,  a  statement  must  be  furnished  showing  the  necessity 
for  such  leave. 

In  the  departmental  service,  applications  for  leave  without  pay  for  30  days 
or  more,  for  reasons  other  than  illness,  must  be  submitted  to  the  Division  of  Per- 
sonnel, together  with  the  recommencjation  of  the  head  of  the  bureau,  office,  or 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       495 

division,  or  chief  of  division,  Secretary's  Office,  or  other  official  authorized  to 
approve  leave  in  the  office  in  which  the  applicant  is  employed. 

In  the  field  service,  all  applications  for  leave  without  pay  for  30  davs  or  more 
must  be  submitted  on  Stock  Form  2217  to  the  head  of  the  service  in  Washington. 
These  applications  will  not  be  sent  to  the  Division  of  Personnel. 

COURT    LEAVE 

Witnesses: 

Employees  who  are  called  upon  to  serve  as  witnesses  for  the  Government  or  the 
District  of  Columbia  in  any  court  proceedings  are  entitled  to  their  regular  com- 
pensation while  absent  from  duty,  but  are  not  entitled  to  witness  fees  for  such 
service.  Absence  for  such  purpose  shall  be  recorded  as  "court  leave,"  and  shall 
not  be  charged  against  annual  leave. 

Jury  service: 

The  act  of  June  29,  1940,  provides  that  the  compensation  of  any  employee  of 
the  United  States  who  may  be  called  upon  for  jury  service  in  any  State  court  or 
court  of  the  United  States,  shall  not  be  diminished  during  the  term  of  such  jury 
service  by  reason  of  such  absence  (except  as  hereinafter  provided)  nor  shall  such 
period  of  service  be  deducted  from  the  time  allowed  for  any  leave  of  absence 
authorized  by  law.  Such  emplo>  ees  who  may  be  called  upon  for  jury  service  in 
any  court  of  the  United  States  shall  not  receive  anj  compensation  for  such  service. 
The  act  further  provides  that  there  shall  be  credited  against  the  amount  of  com- 
pensation payable  by  the  United  States  to  an  employee  for  such  period  as  the 
employee  may  be  absent  on  account  of  jury  service  in 'the  court  of  any  State  any 
amount  which  such  employee  may  receive  from  the  State  for  jury  service. 

Absence  for  jury  service  shall  be  recorded  as  "court  leave."  "Applications  for 
such  leave  shall  be  granted  when  supported  by  a  statement  from  the  clerk  of  the 
court  showing  that  the  employee  served  on  the  days  specified,  and  showing  the 
amount  of  compensation  paid  for  such  service. 

MILITARY    LEAVE

will  not  be  granted  military  leave  of  absence. 

ABSENCE    WITHOUT    AUTHORIZED    LEAVE 

An  employee  detained  by  causes  beyond  control,  and  unable  to  report  for  duty 
at  the  opening  hour,  must  notify  the  office  in  which  employed  to  that  effect  within 
2  hours,  if  practicable,  on  the  first  day  of  absence.  Absence  from  duty  for  any 
cause,  without  prior  permission,  must  be  satisfactorily  explained,  and  if  not  satis- 
factorily explained,  will  be  cause  for  deduction  in  salary  or  other  disciplinary 
measures. 

TARDINESS LATE    ARRIVAL ABSENCE    WITHOUT    AUTHORITY 

Bureaus,  offices,  and  divisions  will  maintain  daily  tardy  records  and  will  be 
responsible  for  seeing  that  cases  of  tardhiess  are  kept  to  a  minimum. 


496       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

Employees  who  arrive  after  the  opening  hour  shall  be  marked  "Tardy"  unless 
their  reasons  are  acceptable.  If  their  reasons  are  acceptable  they  shall  be  marked 
"Excused".  Late  arrival  of  30  minutes  or  less  shall  be  handled  in  conformity 
with  sec.  4.6  of  Executive  Order  9414.  Late  arrival  in  excess  of  30  minutes  shall 
be  charged  as  annual  leave  in  multiples  of  one  hour,  the  minimum  charge  being 
one  hour. 

Employees  whose  reasons  for  tardiness  or  late  arrival  are  not  acceptable  and 
who  are  reported  tardy  11  times  in  one  calendar  year  shall  be  suspended  from  duty 
and  pay  for  one  day  and  if  tardy  14  times  shall  be  suspended  from  duty  and  pay 
for  3  days.  Tardiness  bej^ond  14  times  in  one  calendar  year  shall  be  the  basis  for 
further  disciplinary  action  or  dismissal. 

Recommendations  for  disciplinary  action  will  be  made  on  Form  2249  (fanfold) 
by  the  heads  of  bureaus,  offices,  and  divisions  and  must  be  submitted  through 
the  usual  channels  for  approval. 

ADMINISTRATION 

Employees  must  be  at  their  desks  or  post  of  duty  at  the  opening  hour,  and 
continue  on  duty  until  the  closing  hour.  A  recess  of  half  an  hour  for  luncheon 
will  be  allowed. 

GENERAL    PROVISIONS 

The  local  field  officer  directly  responsible  to  the  head  of  his  service  in  Washington 
is  authorized  to  grant  leave,  in  accordance  with  these  regulations.  The  officer  in 
charge  will  detail  an  officer  or  employee  to  investigate  and  report  the  facts  in  any 
case  of  absence  without  permission. 

A  record  of  all  classes  of  leave  will  be  kept  by  each  local  field  officer  on  depart- 
ment stock  Form  2152.  The  total  leave  granted  in  each  calendar  year  should  be 
noted  on  department  stock  Form  2240,  which  shall  be  the  permanent  record. 
Thereafter  the  yearly  record  on  department  stock  Form  2152  may  be  disposed  of. 

Only  such  forms  as  are  now  provided  b,y  department  regulations,  or  that  may 
hereafter  be  authorized  by  the  Secretary,  will  be  used  for  time  and  leave  records. 
The  present  department  stock  forms  which  may  be  used  are  as  follows:  2242, 
Daily  List  of  Absentees;  2217,  Application  for  Leave;  2152,  Record  of  Absence 
During  the  Year;  2240,  Leave  Record  During  Service;  2243,  Monthly  Report  of 
Absence;  2243-A,  2243-B. 

Willful  neglect  on  the  part  of  any  official  or  employee  in  charge  of  a  daily  time 
sheet  or  record  to  report  the  absence  of  any  employee  will  be  considered  sufficient 
grounds  for  discipline. 

Heads  of  bureaus,  offices,  or  divisions,  and  chiefs  of  divisions,  Secretary's  Office, 
will  be  held  to  strict  official  I'esponsibility  for  the  enforcement  of  these  regulations.

Acting  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 


MISCELLANEOUS 

Exhibit  57 

Address  by  Under  Secretary  Bell  before  the  Worcester  Economic  Club,  December  16, 
1943,  on  financing  the  war  and  post-war  readjustment 

I  welcome  the  opportunity  to  discuss  with  you  this  evening  the  problems  of 
financing  the  war  and  the  post-war  readjustment.  It  is  because  we  feel  that  these 
two  problems  are  so  closely  tied  together  that  I  have  chosen  to  discuss  sojue 
aspects  of  each  in  the  same  address. 

WAR    FINANCE 

It  has  come  to  be  generally  recognized  that  the  real  cost  of  a  war  must  be  paid 
for  while  it  is  being  fought.  This  real  cost  consists  in  the  labor  put  forth  and  the 
sacrifices  endured  in  order  to  produce  and  to  use  the  goods  of  war.  Guns  cannot 
be  fired  until  they  and  their  shells  have  been  made,  nor  can  they  be  fired  with  time 
borrowed  from  tomorrow.  The  labor  and  sacrifice  involved  in  these  things  must 
be  made  today  and  cannot  be  postponed. 

There  are,  of  course,  some  exceptions  to  this  rule.  A  war  may  be  fought,  in 
small  part,  by  the  use  of  stocks  of  goods  accumulated  before  it  begins;  and,  to  a 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       497 

much  larger  extent,  by  postponing  the  replacement  of  capital  goods  wearing  out 
during  its  course.  With  these  exceptions,  the  whole  physical  cost  of  a  war  must  be 
paid  for  while  it  is  being  fought. 

What  then,  it  may  be  asked,  is  the  role  of  war  borrowing.  The  answer  must  be 
that  war  borrowing  is  a  method  of  postponing,  not  the  cost  itself,  but  the  final 
allocation  of  the  total  burden  of  the  war  to  some  future  date,  when  the  costs  now 
paid  for  through  the  sale  of  bonds  are  finally  assessed  in  the  form  of  taxes — at 
which  time  it  is  inevitable  that  a  much  larger  portion  of  them  will  be  paid  by  the 
persons  now  in  the  armed  forces  than  if  they  were  assessed  today. 

When  this  fact  is  seen  in  its  stark  reality,  it  is  clear  that  the  money  cost  of  the 
war  should  be  met  as  far  as  possible  by  taxes,  and  so  be  paid  for  once  and  for  all 
by  today's  civilians  at  the  same  time  that  the  men  in  the  services  are  paying  their 
much  higher  price  in  human  cost  oia  the  fighting  fronts.  Exceptions  from  this 
rule  should  be  permitted  only  when  clearly  justified  by  special  circumstances. 

There  are  a  number  of  these  special  circumstances,  and  it  is  because  of  them  that 
the  Treasury  Department  has  never  recommended  to  Congress  that  the  whole 
cost  of  the  war  should  be  paid  for  out  of  current  taxation.  But  it  is  these  excep- 
tions, and  not  the  general  rule,  which  need  special  justifications;  and  I  should  like 
to  explain  to  you  tonight,  not  why  the  Treasury  has  recommended  to  Congress 
additional  taxes,  which  if  enacted  would  only  provide  sufficient  revenue  to  cover 
about  one-half  of  total  Federal  expenditures,  but  rather  why  it  has  not  asked  for 
taxes  to  cover  the  full  cost. 

The  use  of  borrowing,  to  the  extent  that  it  is  justified  by  special  circumstances, 
makes  for  a  smoother  working  of  our  war  economy  than  would  the  exclusive  use  of 
taxation.  What  are  these  circumstances  under  which  borrowing  is  thus  the  su- 
perior instrument  of  war  finance? 

In  the  first  place,  the  burden  of  a  tax — or  of  any  other  compulsory  levy,  even  if 
it  is  subsequently  reimbursable — must  be  levied  according  to  fixed  rules.  These 
rules  can  take  but  little  account  of  individual  circumstances.  It  requires  con- 
siderable time  for  many  individuals  to  adjust  their  living  standards  and  com- 
mitments to  the  new  and  lower  levels  which  would  be  dictated  by  all-out  wartime 
taxation. 

While  some  individuals  are  revising  their  living  standards  downward,  other 
individuals,  whose  incomes  have  been  increased  by  the  war  to  levels  considerably 
above  those  required  to  meet  their  former  standards  of  living,  are  ready  and  willing 
to  lend  a  substantial  proportion  of  their  increased  incomes  to  the  Government  in 
order  to  insure  their  future  security. 

Ultimately,  if  the  war  should  last  long  enough,  these  adjustments  might  be 
continued  under  a  steadily  increasing  burden  of  taxation  until  each  person's 
standard  of  living  and  financial  commitments  had  become  adjusted  to  his  place 
in  the  war  economy.  This  is  unlikely  to  occur,  except  in  a  very  long  war;  and,  in 
the  meantime,  a  considerable  proportion  of  the  total  war  cost  must  be  borrowed 
in  order  to  avoid  unnecessary  disruption  in  the  economy. 

In  the  next  place,  the  magnitude  of  our  war  effort  is  fixed  by  our  full  gross 
product,  rather  than  by  our  net  national  income.  This  means  that  during  war- 
time replacements  and  repairs  on  plant  and  equipment  must  be  postponed,  as  far 
as  possible,  so  that  the  manpower  and  materials  which  they  would  otherwise  have 
absorbed  can  be  thrown  into  the  war  effort.  Producers,  as  well  as  consumers,  are 
asked  by  their  Government  to  "  Use  it  up,  Wear  it  out,  Make  it  do,  or  Do  without." 

This  means  that  during  the  war  period,  the  capital  assets  of  most  business  firms 
are  wearing  out'more  rapidly  than  they  are  being  replaced,  and  the  depreciation 
reserves  set  aside  to  offset  this  wear  and  tear  are  piling  up  in  cash.  At  the  same 
time,  the  accounts  receivable  of  these  firms  are  running  down,  which  results  also 
in  piling  up  cash.  These  funds  are  all  available  to  be  lent  to  the  Government; 
but  they  are  not  available  to  be  taxed  since  they  represent  capital,  rather  than 
income,  of  the  firms  possessing  them,  and  represent  very  different  proportions  of  the 
total  capital  of  different  firms,  depending  upon  the  type  of  business.  A  policy  of 
borrowing  these  funds,  rather  than  taxing  them  away,  is,  therefore,  clearly 
indicated. 

In  the  third  place,  the  great  wartime  expansion  in  the  economy  requires — even 
at  a  constant  price  level — a  great  increase  in  the  available  supply  of  currency  and 
bank  deposits;  and  this  increase,  under  our  existing  institutions  and  under  war- 
time conditions,  can  be  supplied  only  by  an  increase  in  Government  borrowing. 

Finally,  it  is  necessary  that  some  financial  incentive  be  supplied  to  individuals 
to  work  long  hours,  and  to  corporations  to  operate  with  the  utmost  efficiency. 
If  the  whole  of  the  extra  incomes  resulting  from  the  overtime  pay  of  individuals 
613185—45 33 


498       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

and  the  efficient  management  of  business  enterprises  were  taxed  away,  there  would 
be  no  economic  incentive  to  call  forth  these  exertions. 

The  borrowing  which  is  justified  entirely  by  the  special  considerations  which 
I  have  just  enumerated  would  have  to  take  place  for  our  wartime  economy  to 
operate  smoothly,  no  matter  how  willing  Congress  might  be  to  levy  additional 
taxes  or  the  people  to  bear  them.  This  borrowing  alone  would  amount  to  a  great 
deal  of  money  by  peacetime  standards;  but  it  would  certainly  be  much  less  than 
the  nearly  fifty  billion  dollars  a  year  which  we  should  have  to  borrow  even  if  the 
Treasury  tax  proposals  were  granted  in  full. 

An  additional  amount  of  borrowing — over  and  above  the  minimum  required 
on  economic  grounds — can  also  be  accomplished  without  danger  of  inflation  to 
the  extent  that  individuals  can  be  induced,  for  patriotic  reasons,  to  increase  their 
savings.  This  the  Treasury  is  endeavoring  to  do  by  means  of  the  payroll  savings 
plan  and  the  war  loan  campaigns. 

The  volume  of  total  savings  required  is  dictated  by  the  size  of  the  deficit  and 
may  differ  materially  from  the  sum  tptal  of  savings  which  would  occur  from 
economic  and  patriotic  motives.  At  the  present  time  the  Federal  Government 
is  purchasing  about  one-half  of  the  total  volume  of  goods  and  services  being 
produced,  while  the  remaining  50  percent  is  being  purchased  for  private  use. 
Federal  taxes,  however,  are  bringing  in  only  about  20  percent  of  the  gross  income 
generated  by  production,  leaving  about  80  percent  in  private  hands.  There  is, 
thus,  a  discrepancy  equivalent  to  about  30  percent  of  the  value  of  total  output 
which  makes  up  the  Federal  deficit  on  the  one  hand  and  the  corresponding 
necessary  private  savings  on  the  other  hand. 

To  the  extent  tnat  total  borrowing  exceeds  the  aggregate  amount  of  savings 
consciously  and  intentionally  undertaken,  we  are  placing  liquid  assets  in  the 
hands  of  persons  who  may  use  them  to  put  added  pressure  on  price  ceilings.  It 
.  is  to  aid  in  immobilizing  such  unstable  accumulations,  as  well  as  for  fiscal  and 
equitable  reasons,  that  the  Treasury  considers  the  need  for  additional  taxes 
so  urgent. 

I  do  not  desire  to  go  into  the  matter  of  particular  types  of  wartime  taxes  at 
any  length  this  evening,  but  I  should  like  to  make  some  general  observations. 

First,  there  can  "be  no  douljt  of  the  ability  of  the  people  of  the  United  States  to 
pay  taxes  much  higher  than  those  now  levied.  Of  course,  it  would  be  hard 
because  war  itself  is  hard.  But  the  very  fact  that  we  are  threatened  with  infla- 
tion is  evidence  of  our  ability  to  pay  higher  taxes,  for  it  means  that  we  have  more 
dollars  to  spend  than  things  to  buy  with  them. 

Second,  tlie  view  is  sometimes  voiced  that,  while  we  have  exhausted  our  ability 
to  pay  some  kinds  of  taxes,  such  as  income  taxes,  we  have  not  exhausted  our 
ability  to  pay  other  kinds  of  taxes,  such  as  sales  taxes.  I  can  see  no  merit  in 
this  view.  Ability  to  pay  resides  in  persons,  rather  than  in  kinds  of  taxes — both 
income  and  sales  taxes  must  be  met  from  the  same  pay  envelopes;  and  if  we  have 
the  ability  to  pay  one,  we  have  the  ability  to  pay  the  other. 

The  income  tax  can  be  adjusted,  and  is  adjusted  to  the  personal  circumstances 
of  those  upon  whom  it  is  levied.  Exemptions  are  granted  commensurate  with 
family  status,  so  that  the  tax  does  not  fall  with  merciless  brutality  upon  those 
with  small  incomes  and  large  families.  No  such  adjustment  mechanism  is  cus- 
tomary or  practicable  for  the  sales  tax.  The  view  that  we  have  exhausted  our 
ability  to  pay  additional  income  taxes,  but  still  have  the  ability  to  pay  a  sales 
tax,  logically  reduces  itself  to  the  view  that  the  principal  additional  ability  to  pay 
in  the  economy  resides  in  that  portion  of  incomes  falling  withiijt,the  exernptions 
from  the  individual  income  tax — that  is,  five  hundred  dollars  for' a  single  person, 
twelve  hundred  dollars  for  a  married  couple,  and  three  hundred  fifty  dollars  for 
each  dependent.  I  cannot  accept  this  view;  and  I  do  not  believe  that  the  advo- 
cates of  the  sales  tax  would,  if  they  realized  the  full  implications  of  their  proposal. 

Third,  it  is  often  proposed  that  we  should  place  a  special  tax  on  increases  in 
individual  incomes;  that  is,  tax  a  man  with  an  income  of,  say,  three  thousand 
dollars  more  heavily  if  he  has  recently  come  up  from  one  thousand  dollars  than  if 
he  had  been  receiving  three  thousand  dollars  for  some  time.  This  proposal 
seems  to  me  to  be  wrong  on  a  number  of  coiuits. 

It  is  unfair.  It  seems  to  me  that,  consciously  or  unconsciously,  it  is  based  in 
part  on  the  feudal  concept  that  every  man  should  stay  in  his  place,  and  it  strikes 
at  the  root  of  the  principle  that  every  man  may  rise  according  to  his  worth — a 
principle  which  has  given  so  much  life  and  hope  to  the  American  scene  for  gener- 
ations past. 

It  is  uneconomic.  It  would  undermine  the  incentive  of  workers  to  transfer  to 
war  industries  located  in  inconvenient  places  and  to  work  long  hours  at  hard 
jobs.     Particularly,  it  would  strike  at  the  incentive  for  wives  to  enter  war  plants 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       499 

in  order  to  earn  incomes  supplementary  to  those  of  their  husbands.  It  would, 
therefore,  aggravate  the  labor  shortage. 

It  would  be  very  difficult  to  administer.  This  would  be  true,  not  only  for  the 
Treasury,  but  also  for  the  taxpayers,  as  it  would  require  the  use  of  forms  and 
questionnaires  far  more  complex  than  any  involved  in  the  administration  of  the 
individual  income  tax. 

It  seems  to  me  that  the  basic  problem  of  the  taxation  of  individuals  in  wartime 
is  reall.y  not  very  complex.  Aggregate  individual  income  is  higher,  and  the  Govern- 
ment must  tax  a  portion  of  it  away.  There  may  be  a  great  deal  of  dispute  as  to 
which  income  brackets  should  be  drawn  upon  the  most  heavily,  but  any  reasonable 
pattern  of  withdrawal  can  be  effected  by  means  of  the  individual  income  tax. 

I  think  it  is  a  good  rule  when  any  other  tax  is  proposed,  that  you  first  express 
the  distribution  of  its  burden  in  terms  of  the  individual  income  tax,  and  then 
ask  yourself  whether  you  would  consider  it  reasonable  that  the  burden  of  the 
individual  income  tax  itself  should  be  so  altered.  If  the  answer  is  "No,"  then 
the  other  tax  should  be  placed  on  the  defensive  and  its  proponents  made  to  justify 
it  by  reasons  of  strong  public  policy.  Sometimes  this  can  be  done — ^for  example, 
I  believe  that  the  luxury  excises  proposed  by  the  Treasury  this  year  and  the 
spendings  tax  proposed  fast  year  are  cases  in  point.  The  test  should  be  rigid, 
however,  and  the  considerations  of  public  policy  should  be  important  before  a 
tax  is  placed  on  the  statute  books,  the  burden  of  which  is  distributed  in  a  manner 
other  than  that  in  which  we  would  be  willing  to  distribute  the  burden  of  an  in- 
crease in  the  individual  income  tax. 

I  turn  now  to  our  policies  with  respect  to  wartime  borrowing.  These  have 
been  dominated  by  the  following  considerations. 

First,  we  have  tried  to  borrow  as  much  as  possible  from  investors  other  than 
commercial  banks.  This  principle  must  be  stated  subject  to  some  qualification. 
It  would  neither  be  possible  nor  desirable  to  do  all  of  our  borrowing  outside  of 
the  banking  system.  I  have  already  explained  that  one  of  the  reasons  for  bor- 
rowing at  ail,  rather  than  relying  exclusively  upon  taxation,  is  that  an  expanding 
wartime  economy  needs — even  at  a  constant  price  level — a  greatly  increased 
amount  of  currency  and  bank  deposits.  These  can  be  obtained,  under  existing 
institutions  and  in  wartime,  only  by  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  Government 
security  holdings  of  commercial  and  Federal  Reserve  Banks;  and  a  sufficient 
amount  of  securities  have  to  be  sold  to  the  banks  to  provide  this  necessary  circu- 
lating medium,  even  if  adequate  markets  exist  for  them  elsewhere. 

The  amount  of  Government  securities  which  would  thus  have  to  be  sold  to 
the  banks  in  any  event  is  substantial;  but,  in  practice,  I  must  admit  that  this  has 
proved  little  of  a  problem,  since  it  has  taken  care  of  itself  by  the  rapid  expansion 
of  the  borrowing  needs  of  the  Federal  Government  and  the  slower  development 
of  nonbanking  sources  for  Federal  borrowing. 

For  this  reason,  we  have  directed  our  main  effort  to  the  sale  of  securities  to 
nonbanking  investors.  During  the  past  year,  we  have  sold  to  such  investors, 
net  after  all  switches  and  redemptions,  about  forty  billion  dollars  of  Government 
securities,  as  compared  with  about  thirty  billions  absorbed  by  the  banks. 

Second,  we  have  tried  to  make  the  securities  sold  to  the  small  investor  as  risk- 
less  as  possible.  The  Treasury  has  considered  itself  the  trustee  of  the  inexperi- 
enced investor.  It  is  with  this  in  view  that  the  Department's  appeal  to  small 
investors  has  been  confined  to  Series  E  bonds  which  are  nonnegotiable,  paj'able 
on  demand  and  hence  are  guaranteed  against  fluctuations  in  market  values^ 

The  Treasury  is  less  concerned  with  the  large  volume  of  demand  obligations 
which  is  being  built  up  by  the  sale  of  savings  bonds  to  sniall  investors  than  it 
would  be  with  the  only  practicable  alternative  to  this  course.  This  alternative 
would  be  the  sale  to  small  investors  of  marketable  securities  payable  by  the 
Treasury  only  after  the  expiration  of  a  fixed  term  of  j-ears. 

The  fixing  of  a  definite  term  on  securities  sold  to  small  investors  by  no  m.eans 
insures  that  they  will  be  held  by  these  investors  for  the  full  term.  By  and  large, 
the  holders  of  marketable  securities  would  sell  them  on  the  same  occasions  when 
holders  of  redeemable  securities  would  redeem  theirs.  Indeed,  there  is  one 
important  occasion  upon  which  marketable  securities  wou.ld  be  sold,  but  redeem- 
able securities  would  not  be  redeemed — that  is,  the  fear  of  a  decline  in  price, 
from  which  the  nonnegotiable  securities  are  immune. 

Now  it  may  appear,  at  first  glance,  that  while  the  Treasury  should  be  properly 
concerned  with  redemptions,  it  should  not  be  concerned  with  market  sales,  since 
it  must  meet  the  redemptions  out  of  its  own  pocket;  while  the  market  sales  will 
be  taken  up  by  somebody  else.  This  type  of  reasoning  would  suffice  for  a  private 
borrower,  but  it  is  entirely  inadequate  for  the  Treasury  since  it  overlooks  the  real 


500       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

problem  which  the  holdings  of  Government  securities — whether  redeemable  or 
marketable — by  small  investors  will  present  in  the  post-war  period. 

This  problem  is  that  the  holders  of  these  securities  may  dispose  of  them  and 
spend  the  proceeds  on  consumers'  goods  at  a  time  when  the  supply  of  such  goods 
will  be  scarce;  and  the  spending  can  result  only  in  price  rises.  This  problem  would 
exist,  however,  whether  the  securities  were  payable  on  demand  or  were  negotiable 
and  payable  at  the  close  of  a  fixed  term,  and  will  be  somewhat  less  troublesome  for 
demand  securities,  because,  as  I  have  already  pointed  out,  the  liquidation  of  this 
type  of  security  will  never  be  precipitated  by  the  fear  of  a  fall  in  the  price  of  the 
security  itself. 

The  other  problems  which  will  be  caused  by  holdings  of  Government  debt 
by  small  investors  in  the  post-war  period  are  minor,  relative  to  the  major  prob- 
lem which  I  have  just  mentioned;  and  will  be  less  serious  with  demand  obligations 
than  with  negotiable  obligations  of  fixed  term. 

When  savings  bonds  are  presented  for  redemption  to  the  Treasury  and  it  is 
necessary  to  refund  them,  the  Treasury  offers  the  type  and  maturity  of  new 
securities  best  suited  to  the  market  at  the  time,  and  offers  these  securities  for 
distribution  through  the  regular  channels  of  the  Government  security  market. 

Marketable  securities,  by  contrast,  would  be  offered  in  small  blocks,  often- 
times through  irregular  channels  where  the  original  holders  may  not  receive  full 
value,  and  might  dribble  into  the  market  in  such  a  way  as  to  keep  it  continually 
disturbed.  They  might  not  be  fitted  by  coupon  rate,  maturity,  or  other  char- 
acteristics for  the  predominant  demand  then  existing  in  the  market,  but  they  would 
have  been  cast  in  whatever  mold  they  were,  once  and  for  all,  and  the  market 
would  have  to  make  the  best  of  it. 

To  the  extent  that  the  refunding  of  demand  obligations  would  have  been  ac- 
complished by  the  sale  of  securities  to  banks,  so  also  would  the  marketable 
securities  find  their  ultimate  lodgment  in  banks,  but  only  after  a  roundabout 
journey,  probably  involving  both  loss  to  their  original  purchasers  and  a  higher 
interest  cost  to  the  Treasury. 

It  seems  clear,  therefore,  that  the  Treasury  is  in  a  much  better  position  to 
refund  the  nonnegotiable  securities  than  the  individual  would  be  to  refund 
negotiable  securities  through  the  market. 

The  third  of  the  principles  governing  our  borrowing  policy  has  been  the  main- 
tenance of  the  liquidity  of  the  banking  system.  We  have  laid  down  the  policy 
that  no  securities  will  be  offered  to  commercial  banks  for  the  investment  of  their 
demand  deposits  with  a  maturity  at  time  of  issuance  of  over  ten  years.  The 
great  majority  of  the  securities  sold  to  commercial  banks  have  had  maturities 
far  shorter  than  this.  Indeed,  more  than  half  of  the  total  increase  in  the  port- 
folios of  commercial  banks  since  Pearl  Harbor  has  been  in  the  form  of  three- 
month  Treasury  bills  and  one-year  certificates  of  indebtedness.  This  concen- 
tration of  sales  to  commercial  banks  in  short  securities  insures  that  our  banking 
S5'stem  will  be  in  a  strong  and  liquid  jjosition  to  meet  the  problems  of  the  post- 
war  period. 

Finally,  we  have  financed  this  war  at  an  average  rate  of  slightly  less  than  1^^ 
percent.  This  compares  with  an  average  rate  of  about  4J^  percent  on  the  securi- 
ties issued  to  finance  the  last  World  War. 

Interest  rates  have  remained  stable  during  the  wartime  period  and  confidence 
in  the  continuation  of  this  stability  has  been  and  is  widespread  and  well  justified, 
and  has  caused  investors  to  subscribe  to  new  issues  of  Government  securities  in 
successive  war  loans  without  any  sign  of  holding  back  in  anticipation  of  higher 
rates. 

I  think  it  can  be  fairly  said  of  the  United  States,  as  the  late  Chancellor  of  the 
Exchequer,  Sir  Kingsley  Wood,  recently  said  of  Great  Britain,  that  ".  .  .  we  have 
revolutionized  public  opinion  as  to  what  are  fair  rates  for  Government  war  bor- 
rowing." I  believe  that  this  revolution  in  opinion  has  a  sound  basis  in  underlying 
economic  realities,  and  is  applicable  to  the  coming  times  of  peace  also.  I  hope  that 
the  policies  of  the  Government  will  be  directed  to  this  end. 

FINANCING  THE  POST-WAR  READJUSTMENT 

I  come  now  to  the  second  major  division  of  my  topic,  that  is,  the  problems  of 
the  post-war  readjustment  period. 

I  approach  this  subject  with  some  trepidation.  No  post-war  plan  will  be  of 
any  value  unless  we  win  the  war  and  are  in  a  position  to  put  it  into  effect.  The 
war  is  not  yet  in  the  bag.  Hitler's  post-war  plan  is  slavery,  and  there  will  not  be 
room  for  both  his  plan  and  our  own. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       501 

You  all  remember  the  recipe  for  rabbit  stew  which  begins  "First  catch  the 
rabbit."  So  it  is  with  post-war  planning.  We  must  first  win  the  war;  and  we  must 
not  let  anything,  even  post-war  planning,  distract  our  minds  from  this  for  an 
instant. 

Immediately  followiiig  the  close  of  the  war,  we  will  be  confronted  with  the 
problem  of  reconversion.  The  period  of  reconversion  will  be  a  time  fraught  with 
exceptional  hazard  to  our  economic  structure. 

During  normal  times,  most  of  our  people  are  engaged  in  producing  goods  which 
they  and  their  fellow  workers  can  buy  with  their  wages.  During  wartime,  they  are 
largely  engaged  in  producing  war  goods  which  they  cannot  purchase  with  their 
incomes,  but  the  excess  purchasing  power  which  is  thereby  created  is  held  in 
check  by  direct  controls,  by  personal  taxation  and  by  Government  borrowing 
from  individuals.  The  people  are  willing  to  accept  and  cooperate  with  these 
measures  because  of  patriotism  and  the  all-pervading  spirit  of  sacrifice  which 
exists  during  wartimes.  During  the  reconversion  period,  however,  while  the  tools 
of  production  for  peace  goods  are  being  made  ready,  purchasing  power  may  out- 
run the  goods  available  for  purchase,  while  wartime  measures  of  control  may  be 
relaxed  if  the  people  do  not  recognize  the  need  for  continued  restraint. 

A  price  inflation  is,  consequently,  one  of  the  hazards  of  the  reconversion  period. 
Stalking  hand-in-hand  with  it  goes  the  hazard  of  unemployment.  Normally, 
these  two  are  never  seen  together,  since  unemployment  usually  rises  from  a  lack 
of  demand  for  goods  and  inflation  from  a  shortage  of  goods.  The  unemployment 
of  the  reconversion  period  will  be  caused,  however,  not  by  a  lack  of  demand  for  the 
finished  products,  but  because  the  plants  are  not  yet  ready  for  mass  reemployment, 
and  so  may  go  hand-in-hand  with  inflation. 

Once  the  period  of  reconversion  is  over  and  the  tremendous  potentialities  of  the 
American  economy  which  have  been  demonstrated  during  the  war  period  are 
directed  to  the  production  of  the  goods  of  peace,  the  main  hazard  of  inflation  will 
be  over. 

The  task  of  statesmanship  in  the  period  immediately  following  the  war  will  be 
to  hasten  the  reconversion  process  while  mitigating  its  hardships  and  reducing  its 
human  costs.  This  task  will,  of  course,  be  easier  if  a  termination  of  the  war  on 
one  front  before  the  other  should  make  it  possible  to  complete  part  of  the  re- 
conversion process  under  a  -wartime  environment.  But  we  must  pi'ess  for  victory 
against  Japan  as  well  as  Germany  without  regard  for  the  economics  of  reconver- 
sion. 

This  evening  I  shall  discuss  only  three  aspects  of  fiscal  planning  for  the  re- 
conversion period,  and  these  briefly.  They  are,  first,  the  cancelation  of  war 
contracts;  second,  the  adequacy  of  corporate  financial  resources  to  carry  on  the 
work  of  reconversion;  and,  third,  the  control  of  individual  spending  during  the 
reconversion  period. 

If  the  war  should  end  today  on  all  fronts,  there  would  be  outstanding  more 
than  75  billion  dollars  of  war  contracts  on  which  deliveries  had  not  yet  been  made. 
Much  of  the  material  covered  by  these  contracts  would  be  of  no  use  to  the 
Government  if  it  were  delivered  after  the  immediate  emergency  of  this  war  had 
passed.  This  is  because  there  are  no  goods  with  respect  to  which  obsolescence 
runs  faster  than  it  does  for  the  goods  of  war;  so  the  best  preparation  for  future 
wars  consists  in  maintaining  the  skills  and  plant  capacity  necessary  for  the 
development,  production,  and  use  of  new  war  goods  rather  than  in  hoarding  vast 
quantities  of  old  ones. 

Part  of  the  undelivered  contracts  would  still  exist  merely  in  blue-prints  in  the 
hands  of  the  contractors,  while  part  would  be  represented  by  goods  in  process, 
some  of  which  in  turn  could  be  converted  into  peacetime  goods. 

In  my  opinion,  all  war  contracts  should  be  canceled  immediately  upon  the 
passing  of  the  military  need  for  the  goods  contracted  for.  This  is  desirable  for 
two  important  reasons.  First,  it  avoids  the  tremendous  waste  of  human  and 
material  resources  involved  in  making  goods  which  we  will  never  use;  and,  second, 
it  gives  the  maximum  stimulation  to  the  men  and  management  released  from 
making  such  goods  to  seek  employment  in  the  production  of  goods  for  which 
there  is  a  human  need,  and  so  hastens  the  process  of  reconversion. 

The  abrupt  cancelation  of  war  contracts  will  give  rise  to  two  problems.  These 
are:  First,  provision  for  the  labor  thrown  out  of  employment;  and  second,  com- 
pensation for  the  contractors. 

The  first  of  these  problems  should  be  settled  with  liberality;  the  second,  with 
the  utmost  of  speed. 


502      REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

A  generous  treatment  of  the  labor  displaced  by  contract  cancelation  is  required, 
not  mereh'  by  considerations  of  common  humanity  and  fair  dealing,  but  also  by 
considerations  of  economy;  for  -nithout  it,  we  are  unlikely  to  secure  abrupt  can- 
celation at  all,  and  there  is  no  form  of  relief  more  expensive  than  the  production 
of  unneeded  tools  of  war.  We  should  be  sure,  however,  that  the  treatment  ac- 
corded labor  displaced  from  war  production  is  of  such  a  character  that  it  en- 
courages, rather  than  slows  down,  its  quest  for  peacetime  employment. 

Payments  to  contractors  should  be  just  in  accordance  with  a  fixed  standard  of 
equity;  that  is,  they  should  be  enough  to  make  the  contractors  and  their  subcon- 
tractors whole  for  the  losses  they  have  sustained  as  the  result  of  the  contract 
cancelations. 

It  is  important  also,  that  payments  to  contractors  should  be  prompt.  This  is 
not  primarily  for  the  l^enefit  of  the  contractors  themselves — although  I  have  no 
doubt  that  they  will  appreciate  it —  but  for  the  benefit  ot  the  country  as  a  whole. 
A  dollar  paid  out  in  the  settlement  of  war  contracts  during  the  early  reconversion 
period  may — in  terms  ot  national  well  being — be  worth  several  dollars  paid  out  a 
year  or  so  later.  It  is  far  more  important,  therefore,  that  the  settlements  be 
prompt  than  that  they  be  accurate  to  the  last  dollar  according  to  some  accounting 
concept,  which  may  itself  be  open  to  question. 

The  settlement  of  war  contracts  along  the  lines  which  I  have  just  outlined  will 
involve  a  heavy  outflow  ot  funds  from  the  Treasury  in  the  few  months  immedi- 
ately following  the  ena  ot  the  war.  We  are  prepared  for  this  outflow,  and  we'feel 
that  there  will  be  few  occasions  when  a  disbursement  of  funds  may  be  made  with 
so  little  real  cost  to  the  Government  and  so  much  benefit  to  the  economy. 

My  second  point  with  respect  to  the  reconversion  period  relates  to  the  ade- 
quacy of  corporate  financial  resources  to  carry  on  the  work  of  reconversion.  The 
adequacy  of  these  resources  is  important,  not  merely  or  even  i^rincipally  from  the 
point  of  view  of  the  corporations  involved,  but  from  the  point  of  view  of  the 
whole  economic  system. 

We  in  the  Treasury  have  given  careful  consideration  to  this  matter,  and  believe 
that  funds  for  the  reconversion  of  war  industry  will  be  ample,  provided  that  a 
prompt  settlement  is  made  of  canceled  war  contracts.  Our  reasons  for  believing 
this  are  as  follows: 

First,  the  wartime  period  has  been  a  profitable  one  for  American  corporations 
as  a  whole.  Net  corporate  profits,  after  taxes,  have  averaged  about  twice  as  much 
per  year  during  the  wartime  period  as  they  did  in  the  j'ears  1935  through  1939  (the 
base  period  for  the  FRB  index  of  industrial  production) ;  and,  by  and  large,  the 
greatest  increases  have  gone  to  those  firms  whose  problems  of  reconversion  will 
be  greatest.  Corporate  dividend  policy,  furthermore,  has  been  so  conservative 
that  most  of  the  increase  in  corporate  earnings  has  been  added  to  surplus. 

Second,  in  addition  to  their  savings  from  undistributed  earnings,  American 
corporations  have  piled  up  a  large  volume  of  liquid  assets  as  a  result  of  repayment 
of  receivables,  and  in  some  cases  reduction  in  inventories,  and  the  general  inability 
to  expend  dej^reciation  and  depletion  reserves  which  has  been  brought  about  by 
wartime  conditions.  According  to  the  estimates  of  the  Federal  Reserve  Board, 
the  demand  deposits  of  nonfinancial  businesses,  including  unincorporated  enter- 
prises, amounted  to  over  30  billion  dollars  at  the  end  of  last  July;  and,  according 
to  Treasury  estimates,  the  holdings  of  Government  securities — payable  for  the 
most  part  on  demand  or  at  very  short  term — by  nonfinancial  corporations  alone, 
amount  at  the  present  time  to  about  20  billion  dollars.  Each  of  these  figures  is 
far  above  any  peacetime  precedent;  but,  to  make  the  picture  brighter,  American 
business,  during  the  same  time  it  has  been  acquiring  them,  has  reduced  the  ainount 
of  both  its  bank  loans  and  its  bonded  debt. 

Third,  generous  carry-back  and  carry-forward  provisions  included  in  the 
corporation  tax  laws  insure  that  corporations  suffering  losses  during  the  reconver- 
sion period,  or  even  earning  incomes  of  less  than  their  excess  profits  credit,  will 
receive  substantial  refunds  of  the  taxes  paid  in  their  prosperous  years.  These 
refunds — for  the  expediting  of  which  the  Treasury  has  made  recommendations  to 
the  congressional  committees — will  be  available  to  carry  on  the  work  of  recon- 
version. In  addition,  there  is  provided  in  the  present  law  a  post-war  refund, 
irrespective  of  future  tax  status,  of  ten  percent  of  the  excess  profits  tax  paid  in 
the  war  period. 

For  the  reasons  given,  I  do  not  believe  that  the  adequacy  of  business  funds  for 
reconversion  purposes  will  present  a  major  problem.  But  I  cannot  speak  with 
equal  assurance  with  respect  to  the  prospects  for  the  control  of  individual  spending 
during  the  reconversion  period — the  third  post-war  problem  to  be  discussed. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       503 

Immediately  following  the  end  of  the  actual  fighting,  we  can  probably  expect  a 
let-down  in  the  willingness  of  people  to  submit  from  patriotic  motives  to  a  con- 
tinued reduction  in  their  consumption.  There  is  likely  to  be  a  demand  for  an 
immediate  end  of  the  direct  controls;  and  this  demand  may,  to  some  extent, 
succeed.  For  some  time,  however,  while  industry  is  being  reconverted  and  the 
war  effort  demobilized,  there  will  be  only  a  very  gradual  increase  in  the  supply  of 
consumers'  goods.  When  it  is  considered  that  there  will  be  available  to  be  spent 
currently,  in  addition  to  the  incomes  being  received  for  the  production  of  con- 
sumers' goods,  not  merely  the  incomes  from  work  in  demobilizing  the  war  effort 
and  reconverting  private  industry,  but  also  the  large  liquid  resources  piled  up 
during  wartime,  it  is  easy  to  conjure  up  the  specter  of  a  post-war  inflation. 

Against  this  must  be  set  the  powerful  force  of  human  foresight  and  sobriety. 
The  reconversion  period  is  bound  to  be  attended  by  considerable  unemployment, 
and  each  individual  will  naturally  ask  himself  how  he  is  going  to  come  out  in  the 
swirl  of  readjustments  he  sees  around  him.  His  natural  tendency  will  be  to 
"play  it  close  to  the  chest"  and  handle  his  reserve  funds  as  carefully  as  possible. 
This  human  tendency  alone  may  maintain  a  high  rate  of  saving  during  the  recon- 
version period,  and  so  forestall  the  possibility  of  a  post-war    inflation. 

We  hope  that  this  will  be  so;  but  counting  on  it  would  be  as  improvident  as 
counting  on  an  internal  smash  up  in  Germany  to  win  the  war.  We  must  conse- 
quently lay  our  plans  to  prevent  a  post-war  inflation  from  occurring,  but  stand 
ready  to  adjust  any  such  plans  on  short  notice  to  conditions  as  they  actually 
develop  during  the  reconversion  period. 

What  should  these  plans  be?  It  seems  to  me  that  the  direct  controls,  such  as 
price  ceilings,  priorities,  and  rationing,  should  be  kept  in  eff"ect  as  long  as  necessary; 
and  high  income  taxes,  as  long  as  possible. 

Let  me  explain  the  diff"erence  between  "necessary"  and  "possible"  in  the  state- 
ment which  I  have  just  made. 

While  I  believe  that  we  should  keep  the  direct  controls  as  long  after  the  war  as 
necessary.  I  do  not  believe  that  this  will  be  very  long.  I  feel  certain  that  the  last 
of  them  can  be  done  away  with  as  soon  as  the  reconverted  plants  commence  to 
pour  their  flood  of  consumers'  goods  on  the  market. 

I  have  said,  however,  that  the  high  rates  of  taxation  should  be  kept  as  long  as 
possible.  I  think  that  the  case  here  is  very  dift'erent.  High  personal  taxes  serve 
the  anti-inflationary  purpose  of  absorbing  surplus  purchasing  power;  and  this 
may  be  very  useful  and  necessary  in  the  reconversion  period.  But  they  also  serve 
the  purpose  of  helping  to  pay  off  the  national  debt;  and  this  purpose  is  also  useful 
and  necessary. 

It  seems  to  me,  therefore,  that,  while  the  criterion  with  respect  to  the  removal 
of  the  controls  should  be  "How  soon  can  we  remove  them  without  risking  infla- 
tion?", the  criterion  with  respect  to  wartime  rates  of  taxation  should  be  "How 
long  can  we  keep  them  without  risking  unemployment?"  Perhaps  for  a  long 
time  to  come,  if  the  post-war  period  lives  up  to  our  hopes  and  expectations. 

But  this  would  take  me  into  new  vistas  beyond  the  scope  of  tonight's  address 
for  I  have  no  intention  of  discussing  the  broader  phases  of  fiscal  policy  beyond 
the  reconversion  period. 

I  would  like  to  make,  however,  a  few  general  observations.  The  war  has 
opened  the  eyes  of  the  American  people  to  the  tremendous  productivity  of  indus- 
trial and  agricultural  America.  The  shortages  of  peacetime  goods  and  services 
that  exist  now  have  not  blinded  us  to  the  enormous  potentialities  for  abundance 
inherent  in  our  productive  mechanism.  It  is  precisely  this  unexampled  capacity 
to  produce  uj)on  which  the  future  prosperity  and  welfare  of  our  people  ultimately 
depend. 

To  help  society  achieve  more  fully  the  promise  of  abundance  implicit  in  our 
capacity  to  produce;  to  help  maintain  output  and  employment  at  a  level  more 
nearly  corresponding  to  our  true  productive  potential;  and  to  secure  this  at  a  price 
that  a  peaceful  democracy  can  pay; — that  will  constitute  the  greatest  task  of 
economic  statesmanship  in  the  post-war  world. 

I  do  not  believe  that  the  glory  of  America  belongs  only  to  the  past.  I  believe 
that  the  real  promise  of  America  belongs  to  the  future.  Between  the  goal  of 
securing  maximum  utilization  of  our  resources  and  the  goal  of  achieving  a  more 
equitable  distribution  of  wealth,  there  need  be  no  conflict.  Our  history  has  been 
testimony  to  that  fact,  and  our  future  will  be  the  record  of  its  fulfillment. 


504  REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY 

Exhibit  58 

Letters  from  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  to  commercial  banks,  insurance  co7npanies, 
and  corporations  in  connection  with  the  Fourth  and  Fifth  War  Loans 

Letter  to  Commercial  Banks,  Fourth  War  Loan 

January  5,  1944- 

Gentlemen:  On  January  18,  1944,  the  Treasury  will  open  the  Fourth  War 
Loan,  the  goal  of  which  is  $14  billions.  It  is  our  aim  in  the  coming  campaign 
to  increase  the  sale  of  Government  securities  to  individuals,  who  are  expected  to 
account  for  $5.5  billions  of  the  total  goal.  In  my  statements  concerning  the 
Fourth  War  Loan,  I  have  emphasized  that  the  drive  is  to  be  limited  to  obtaining 
subscriptions  from  nonbank  investors.  The  following  statement  was  included  in 
the  first  formal  announcement  of  the  loan: 

"In  order  to  help  in  achieving  its  objective  of  selling  as  many  securities  as 
possible  outside  of  the  banking  system,  the  Treasury  requests  the  cooperation  of 
all  banking  institutions  in  declining  to  make  speculative  loans  for  the  purchase 
of  Government  securities.  The  Treasury  is  in  favor  of  the  banks  making  loans 
to  facilitate  permanent  investment  in  Government  securities  provided  such  loans 
are  made  in  accord  with  the  joint  statement  issued  by  the  National  and  State 
Bank  Supervisory  Authorities  on  November  23,  1942." 

During  the  three  preceding  war  loan  drives,  an  increasing  volume  of  subscrip- 
tions appears  to  have  been  entered  by  subscribers  who  paid  for  the  securities 
they  purchased  largely  by  borrowing  funds  from  commercial  banks.  Many  of 
these  subscriptions  were  placed  with  the  intention  of  repaying  the  borrowed  funds 
out  of  future  income,  and  of  holding  the  securities  purchased  as  investments. 
A  substantial  volume  of  such  subscriptions,  however,  appears  to  have  been  pre- 
dominantly speculative  in  character,  or  else  to  have  been  entered  merely  for 
the  purpose  of  helping  to  achieve  campaign  quotas.  The  subscribers  evidently 
intended  to  hold  the  securities  only  for  short  periods  and  expected  to  sell  them  in 
the  market  within  a  few  weeks  or  months  after  the  drive. 

Accordingly,  most  of  these  securities  have  found  their  way  into  the  banking 
system,  thus  involving  an  expansion  of  bank  credit.  Such  subscriptions  do  not 
contribute  to  the  objective  of  financing  the  war  as  largely  as  possible  outside  of 
the  banking  system. 

In  view  of  these  considerations,  I  want  to  ask  all  banks  to  scrutinize  carefully 
all  requests  that  come  to  them  for  loans  to  finance  subscriptions  to  securities 
offered  in  the  Fourth  War  Loan;  and  in  so  doing,  to  consider  that  loans  to  facilitate 
the  investment  in  Government  securities  are  a  proper  part  of  the  financing  mechan- 
ism only  when  they  are  in  accordance  with  the  joint  statement  issued  by  the 
National  and  State  Bank  Supervisory  Authorities  in  November  1942.  This 
statement,  you  will  recall,  was  in  part  as  follows: 

"  *  *  *  subscribers  relying  upon  anticipated  income  may  wish  to  augment 
their  subscriptions  by  temporary  borrowings  from  banks.  Such  loans  will  not 
be  subject  to  criticism  but  should  be  on  a  short-term  or  amortization  basis  fully 
repayable  within  periods  not  exceeding  six  months." 

Loans  to  finance  speculative  subscriptions  and  any  other  loans  on  Government 
securities  in  connection  with  Government  financing  which  do  not  meet  the  require- 
ments of  the  statement  referred  to  above  are  not  consistent  with  the  Treasury's 
policy  and  program. 

Another  matter  with  respect  to  which  I  should  also  appreciate  your  further 
cooperation  is  that  of  the  transfer  of  funds  for  the  purchase  of  Government 
securities.  We  have  written  a  letter  to  the  larger  corporations  of  the  country 
about  this  matter  and  a  copy  is  enclosed  for  your  information. 

May  I  take  this  opportunity  to  express  my  deep  appreciation  of  the  great  help 
you  and  other  bankers  have  given  the  Treasury  in  connection  with  its  war  financing 
operations,  in  promoting  the  sale  of  securities,  in  acting  as  sales  agencies  during 
drives,  in  the  continuous  sale  of  savings  bonds,  and  in  your  subscriptions  to  those 
securities  which  banks  have  been  eligible  to  purchase. 
Sincerely, 

H.   Morcenthau,  Jr., 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 


REPORT  OF  THE   SECRETARY   OF   THE  TREASURY  505 

Letter  to  Large  Corporations,  Fourth  War  Loan 

January  5,  1944- 

Gentlemen:  On  January  18,  1944,  the  Treasury  will  open  the  Fourth  War 
Loan,  the  goal  of  which  is  $14  billions.  This  war  loan  will  afford  many  of  the 
country's  large  corporations  an  opportunity  to  invest  some  of  the  cash  funds  they 
have  accumulated  since  the  Third  War  Loan  closed. 

A  number  of  corporation  executives  have  told  me  that  it  would  be  helpful  to 
all  large  corporations  and  avoid  confusion  if  the  Treasury  made  a  definite  state- 
ment of  policy  with  respect  to  (a)  the  method  it  desired  large  corporations  to 
follow  in  placing  their  subscriptions  to  the  various  issues,  and  (6)  the  procedure 
it  desired  them  to  follow  with  respect  to  allocations  of  credit  to  their  various 
locations  throughout  the  country. 

With  respect  to  the  first  point,  it  seems  to  me  that  no  corporation  should  transfer 
funds  from  one  bank  to  another  exclusively  for  the  purpose  of  entering  subscrip- 
tions to  Government  securities  because  of  the  disturbing  effect  of  such  transfers 
upon  the  reserve  positions  of  the  Nation's  banking  institutions.  It  is  the  Treasury's 
wish,  therefore,  that  such  transfers  of  funds  during  the  Fourth  War  Loan  be 
avoided  as  far  as  possible.  In  entering  a  subscription  during  the  Fourth  War 
Loan,  it  would  be  helpful  if  you  would  make  a  point  of  entering  it  at  the  bank  or 
banks  in  which  you  keep  the  funds  to  be  used  to  pay  for  the  securities  subscribed 
for. 

With  respect  to  the  matter  of  allocations  of  credit  to  local  communities,  I 
recognize  the  force  of  the  many  problems  of  business  and  customer  relations  in 
the  various  communities  that  make  allocations  desirable  and  necessary.  In  view 
of  the  amount  of  detailed  work  involved  in  making  allocations,  however,  it  is  desirable 
to  reduce  the  number  to  the  fewest  possible. 

We  are,  however,  desirous  of  meeting  your  wishes  as  to  the  distribution  of 
credits  for  your  subscription  or  portions  thereof.  We  have  arranged,  therefore, 
with  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  for  the  establishment  of  a  procedure  which  will 
permit  allocations  to  be  made  effectively  and  systematically.  A  circular  letter 
from  the  Federal  Reserve  Banks  describing  the  procedure  and  providing  forms 
for  its  operation  should  be  in  the  hands  of  your  bank  shortly  if  it  has  not  already 
arrived. 

May  I  take  this  opportunity  to  express  my  deep  appreciation  for  the  great  help 
your  company  and  other  corporations  of  America  have  given  the  Treasury  in 
connection  with  its  war  financing  activities.  Through  the  cooperation  of  your 
executives  and  employees  you  have  helped  us  develop  and  extend  our  prograni 
of  selling  large  volumes  of  securities  to  individual  purchasers  under  the  payroll 
savings  plan  and  during  the  war  loan  drives. 
Sincerely, 

H.  Morgenthatt,  Jr., 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 

Letter  to  Insurance  Companies,  Fourth  War  Loan 

January  5,  1944- 

Gentlemen:  On  January  18,  1944,  the  Treasury  will  open  the  Fourth  War 
Loan,  the  goal  of  which  is  $14  billions.  This  war  loan  will  afford  many  of  the 
country's  insurance  companies  an  opportunity  to  invest  some  of  the  cash  funds 
they  have  accumulated  since  the  Third  War  Loan  closed. 

A  number  of  insurance  executives  have  told  me  that  it  would  be  helpful  to 
their  companies  and  avoid  confusion  if  the  Treasury  made  a  definite  statement 
of  policy  with  respect  to  (a)  the  method  it  desired  insurance  companies  to  follow 
in  placing  their  subscriptions  to  the  various  issues,  and  (6)  the  matter  of  alloca- 
tions of  credit  for  insurance  company  subscriptions. 

With  respect  to  the  first  point,  it  seems  to  me  that  no  corporation  should 
transfer  funds  from  one  bank  to  another  exclusively  for  the  purpose  of  entering 
subscriptions  to  Government  securities  because  of  the  disturbing  effect  of  such 
transfers  upon  the  reserve  positions  of  the  Nation's  banking  institutions.  It  is 
the  Treasury's  wish,  therefore,  that  such  transfers  of  funds  during  the  Fourth 
War  Loan  be  avoided  as  far  as  possible.  In  entering  a  subscription  during  the 
Fourth  War  Loan,  it  would  be  helpful  if  you  would  make  a  point  of  entering  it 
at  the  bank  or  banks  in  which  you  keep  the  funds  to  be  used  to  pay  for  the  securi- 
ties subscribed  for. 


506  REPORT   OF   THE   SECRETARY   OF    THE   TREASURY 

With  respect  to  the  matter  of  allocations  of  credit  for  subscriptions  to  local 
communities,  please  be  advised  that  during  the  Fourth  War  Loan^ — as  during 
the  previous  war  loan  drives — no  allocation  of  insurance  company  subscriptions 
to  an  address  other  than  that  of  the  home  office  can  be  permitted.  I  recognize 
that  there  are  some  problems  of  business  and  customer  relations  in  the  various 
communities  in  which  you  do  business  which  might  make  some  allocations  appear 
desirable.  Our  discussions  with  insurance  executives  in  various  parts  of  the 
country,  however,  have  led  us  to  the  conclusion  that  allowing  allocations  of 
insurance  company  subscriptions  would  create  a  host  of  new  and  difficult  prob- 
lems. We  have  decided,  therefore,  to  leave  the  previous  ruling  unchanged  and 
have  included  in  the  quotas  assigned  to  the  various  States  and  counties  an  estimate 
of  the  amounts  likely  to  be  obtained  from  insurance  companies  whose  home 
offices  are  located  therein.  * 

May  I  take  this  opportunity  to  express  my  deep  appreciation  of  the  great  help 
your  company  and  the  other  insurance  companies  of  America  have  given  the 
Treasury  in  connection  with  its  war  financing  activities.  Through  the  coopera- 
tion of  vour  executives  and  employees  you  have  helped  us  develop  and  extend 
our  program  of  selling  large  volumes  of  securities  to  individual  purchasers  under 
the  payroll  savings  plan  and  during  the  war  loan  drives. 
Sincerely, 

H.    MoRGENTHAr,    Jr., 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 


Letter  to  Commercial  Banks,  Fifth  War  Loan 

May  2 4,  19  U. 

Gentlemen:  On  June  12,  1944,  the  Treasury  will  open  the  Fifth  War  Loan. 
The  goal  for  this  drive  will  be  $16  billions,  of  which  $6  billions  is  to  come  from  the 
sale  of  bonds  to  individuals.  The  critical  phases  of  the  war  are  still  ahead  of  us. 
No  decline  in  expenditures  is  in  prospect,  and  the  $16  billions  is  urgently  needed. 
It  is  for  this  reason  that  we  have  set  our  goals  higher  than  heretofore. 

As  in  the  last  two  war  loans,  sales  will  be  confined  to  investors  other  than 
commercial  banks.  It  is  our  wish,  in  this  connection,  to  eliminate  from  the  drive 
as  far  as  possible  those  subscriptions  which  are  predominantly  speculative  in 
character.  You  will  remember  that  I  included  the  following  statement  in  the 
first  formal  announcement  of  the  drive: 

"In  order  to  help  in  achieving  its  objective  of  selling  as  many  securities  as 
possible  outside  of  the  banking  system,  the  Treasury  requests  the  cooperation  of 
all  banking  institutions  in  declining  to  make  speculative  loans  for  the  purchase 
of  Government  securities.  The  Treasury  is  in  favor  of  the  banks  making  loans 
to  facilitate  permanent  investment  in  Government  securities  provided  such  loans 
are  made  in  accord  with  the  joint  statement  issued  by  the  National  and  State 
Bank  Supervisory  Authorities  on  November  23,  1942." 

Loans  to  facilitate  investment  in  Government  securities  are  a  proper  part  of  the 
financing  mechanism  when  they  are  in  accordance  with  the  joint  statement 
referred  to  above.     This  statement,  you  will  recall,  was  in  part  as  follows: 

"*  *  *  subscribers  relying  upon  anticipated  income  may  wish  to  augment 
their  subscriptions  by  temporary  borrowings  from  banks.  Such  loans  will  not  be 
subject  to  criticism  but  should  be  on  a  short-term  or  amortization  basis  fully 
repayable  within  periods  not  exceeding  six  months." 

Another  matter  with  respect  to  which  I  should  also  appreciate  your  further 
cooperation  is  that  of  the  transfer  of  funds  for  the  purchase  of  Government 
securities.  There  was  a  great  improvement  on  this  account  between  the  Third 
and  Fourth  War  Loans.  Over  10,000  banks  have  qualified  to  pay  for  customers' 
bond  purchases  by  credit  to  a  war  loan  deposit  account,  and  if  all  the  banks  will 
urge  clients  to  place  orders  for  Government  securities  where  funds  are  on  deposit — 
making  allocation  of  statistical  credit  when  desired — transfers  of  funds  can  be 
continued  at  a  satisfactory  low  level  during  the  Fifth  War  Loan. 

May  I  take  this  opportunity  to  express  my  deep  appreciation  of  the  great  help 
you  and  other  bankers  have  given  the  Treasury  in  connection  with  its  war  financing 
operations,  in  promoting  the  sale  of  securities,  in  acting  as  sales  agencies  in  the 
continuous  sale  of  savings  bonds,  and  in  your  subscriptions  to  those  securities 
which  banks  have  been  eligible  to  purchase. 
Sincerely, 

H.  Moroenthau,  Jr., 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury.

"Upon  receipt  of  such  request  by  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  and  upon 
a  determination  that  the  check  is  outstanding  or  upon  receipt  of  advice  from  a 
drawee  other  than  the  Treasurer  that  such  request  has  been  received  and  that 
the  check  has  been  found  to  be  outstanding,  a  bond  of  indemnity  (Form  2244)  or, 
in  an  appropriate  case,  an  application  (Form  2244a)  will  be  prepared  in  the 
Treasurer's  office  and  transmitted  for  execution  by  the  claimant  who  will  transmit

application  shall  be  sworn  to  before  (a)  a  diplomatic  or  consular  officer  of  the 
United  States,  or  (b)  an  officer  of  the  United  States  Army,  Navy,  Marine  Corps, 
or  Coast  Guard,  or  (c)  an  official  of  such  foreign  country  authorized  by  law  to

duplicate  (marked  "Duplicate")  which  must  be  an  exact  transcript  of  the  original, 


'  The  word  "duplicate"  as  used  herein  means  a  "substitute,  marked  duplicate"  as  provided  in  sec. 
3646  of  the  Revised  Statutes  of  1873,  as  amended  (U.  S.  C.  Title  31,  sec.  528). 


508       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

special  care  being  taken  that  the  number,  date,  amount,  and  name  of  the  payee 
correspond  to  those  of  the  original.  In  the  case  of  checks  issued  on  account  of 
public  debt  obligations  and  transactions  regarding  the  administration  of  banking 
and  currency  laws,  duplicates  may  be  issued  without  limitation  of  time.  The 
drawer  will  then  forward,  without  delay,  the  bond  of  indemnity  (Form  2244)  or, 
in  an  appropriate  case,  the  application  (Form  2244a),  and  the  duplicate  check 
to  the  Division  of  Disbursement,  Treasury  Department.  The  bond  of  indemnity 
or  the  application  and  the  information  obtained  shall  be  examined  by  the  Divi- 
sion of  Disbursement  and  if  satisfactory  shall  be  scheduled  and  submitted  to  the 
Secretary  of  the  Treasury  for  approval. 

"Certification  of  approval  shall  be  made  in  writing  by  the  Chief  Disbursing 
Officer  or  the  Assistant  Chief  Disbursing  Officer  on  the  duplicate  check.  Any 
duplicate  issued  pursuant  to  these  regulations,  and  certified  as  provided  above, 
may,  if  properly  endorsed,  be  paid  subject  to  the  same  rules  and  regulations  as 
apply  to  payment  of  original  checks. 

"Unless  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  deems  a  bond  of  indemnity  is  essential 
to  the  public  interest,  or  unless  the  drawer  of  the  check  is  no  longer  in  the  service 
of  the  United  States,  no  bond  of  indemnity  shall  be  required  in  any  of  the  follow- 
ing classes  of  cases: 

"(a)  If  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  is  satisfied  that  the  loss,  theft,  destruc- 
tion, mutilation,  or  defacement,  as  the  case  may  be,  occurred  without  fault  of 
the  owner  or  holder  and  while  the  check  was  in  the  custody  or  control  of  the 
United  States,  including  the  Postal  Service  when  carrying  mail  for  an  officer, 
employee,  agent,  or  agency  of  the  United  States  when  performing  services  in 
connection  with  an  official  function  of  the  United  States,  but  not  includine  the 
Postal  Service  when  otherwise  acting  solely  in  its  capacity  as  a  public  carrier  of 
the  mail,  or  of  a  person  thereunto  duly  authorized  as  lawful  agent  of  the  United 
States;  or  while  it  was  in  the  cour.'^e  of  shipment  effected  pursuant  to  and  in  accord- 
ance with  regulations  issued  under  the  provisions  of  the  Government  Losses  in 
Shipment  Act,  as  amended; 

"(b)  If  substantially  the  entire  check  is  presented  and  surrendered  by  the 
owntV  or  holder  and  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  is  satisfied  as  to  the  identity 
of  the  check  presented  and  that  any  missing  portions  are  not  suflRcient  to  form  the 
basis  of  a  valid  claim  against  the  United  States:  and  in  cases  where  the  circum- 
stances justifv  such  action,  a  letter  of  application  may  be  accepted  in  lieu  of 
Form  2244a;  " 

"(c)  If  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  is  satisfied  that  the  original  check  is 
not  negotiable  and  cannot  be  made  the  basis  of  a  valid  claim  against  the  United 
States; 

"(d)  If  the  amount  of  the  check  is  less  than  $50  and  the  check  has  not  been 
endorsed  by  the  payee; 

"(e)  If  the  owner  or  holder  is  the  United  States  or  an  officer  or  employee  thereof 
in  his  official  capacity,  a  State,  the  District  of  Columbia,  a  Territory  or  possession 
of  the  United  States,  including  the  Commonwealth  of  the  Philippine  Islands,  a 
municipal  corporation  or  political  subdivision  of  any  of  the  foregoing,  a  corpora- 
tion the  whole  of  whose  capital  is  owned  by  the  United  States,  a  foreign  govern- 
ment, or  a  Federal  Reserve  Bank. 

"4.  Procedure  where  disbursing  officer  who  issiied  original  check  is  dead  or  no 
longer  in  the  service  of  the  United  States. — In  case  of  the  loss  of  a  check  issued  by 
an  officer  or  agent  (other  than  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  or  the  Treasurer 
of  the  United  States)  who  is  dead  or  no  longer  in  the  service  oJF  the  United  States, 
the  bond  required  to  be  furnished  by  the  owner  of  said  check  to  an  officer  or  agent 
in  the  service  of  the  United  States,  prior  to  the  issuance  of  a  duplicate  check, 
should  be  forwarded  to  the  Division  of  Disbursement,  Treasury  Department, 
which  will  refer  it  to  the  General  Accounting  Office  for  examination  and  the 
statement  of  an  account  in  favor  of  the  owner  of  said  check,  as  provided  in  section 
3647  of  the  Revised  Statutes  of  1873,  as  amended  (U.  S.  C.  Title  31,  sec.  119) 
and  section  307  of  the  act  approved  June  10,  1921,  42  Stat.  25  (U.  S.  C.  Title  31, 
sec.  47).  Payment  will  then  be  made  by  a  check  issued  pursuant  to  such  state- 
ment of  account. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       509 

"5.  Receipt  or  recovery  of  original  check. — If  the  original  check  is  received  or 
recovered  after  stoppage  of  payment  has  been  requested,  but  before  a  duplicate 
check  has  been  received,  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States,  or  the  Federal 
Reserve  Bank  through  which  payable,  or  other  drawee,  shall  be  immediately 
advised  that  the  stoppage  request  may  be  disregarded.  This  notice  should  be 
signed  by  the  owner  of  the  check  who  requested  the  stoppage  and  should  be 
mailed  by  the  owner  or  drawer  in  time  to  reach  the  Treasurer  or  the  Federal 
Reserve  Bank  through  which  payable,  or  other  drawee,  before  the  check  is  pre- 
sented for  payment.

the  provisions  of  the  Current  Tax  Payment  Act  of  1943 

Second  Amendment,  November  30,  1943 

Treasury  Department, 
Washingto7i,  November  30,  1943. 

Treasury  Department  Circular  No.  714  dated  June  25,  1943,  as  amended,  is 
hereby  further  amended  as  follows: 

Delete  the  sixth  paragraph  of  section  7  and  insert  in  lieu  thereof  the  following 
paragraph : 

"The  original  and  Federal  Reserve  Bank  copy  of  each  depositary  receipt  must 
be  signed  by  an  officer  or  employee  duly  authorized  by  the  depositary.  This 
signature  may  be  in  any  one  of  the  following  forms:  (1)  a  manual  signature  of  a 
duly  authorized  officer  or  employee  followed  by  the  title  of  such  officer  or  em- 
ployee; (2)  a  rubber  stamp  impression  containing  the  name  of  the  depositary 
supported  by  the  manual  initial  of  the  receipting  officer  or  employee  and  followed 
by  his  official  title;  (3)  a  facsimile  or  rubber  stamp  impression  signature  of  a  duly 
authorized  officer  over  his  official  title,  supported  by  the  manual  initial  of  such 
officer  or  the  employee  receiving  the  deposit;  or  (4)  a  facsimile  or  rubber  stamp

ported by  the  manual  initial  of  such  employee.  It  is  preferable  that  initials  or 
manual  signatures  be  in  ink;  however,  if  made  by  pencil  they  will  be  acceptable." 

Delete  the  fifth  paragraph  of  section  8  and  insert  in  lieu  thereof  the  following 
paragraph : 


510       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

"The  initial  allotment  to  a  depositary  for  withheld  taxes  under  either  of  the 
two  alternative  methods  will  be  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  business  transacted 
under  this  circular  b}'  the  depositary  during  the  calendar  month  immediately 
succeeding  that  in  which  the  depositary  was  qualified.  However,  if  specifically 
requested  by  a  depositary,  the  initial  allotment  may  be  made  on  the  basis  of  the 
business  transacted  during  the  calendar  month  in  which  the  depositary  was 
qualified.  If  more  than  one  full  calendar  month  elapses  after  a  bank  qualifies 
as  a  depositary  for  withheld  taxes  before  it  enters  a  subscription  for  the  initial 
allotment,  such  initial  allotment  should  be  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  average 
business  transacted  monthly  by  the  depositary  during  the  preceding  full  calendar 
months;  however,  if  the  elapsed  period  is  more  than  six  months,  the  initial  allot- 
ment will  be  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  average  business  transacted  monthly 
during  the  six  full  calendar  months  preceding  the  request  for  the  initial  allotment. 
The  initial  allotment  will  be  made  as  of  the  first  day  of  the  second  calendar  month 
following  the  close  of  the  period  which  is  used  as  a  basis  for  determining  the 
amount  of  such  initial  allotment.  For  example,  if  the  business  transacted  during 
the  period  ending  November  30,  1943,  is  to  be  used  as  a  basis  for  calculating  the 
initial  allotment,  such  initial  allotment  will  be. made  as  of  January  1,  1944." 

Delete  the  sixth  paragraph  of  section  8  and  insert  in  lieu  thereof  the  following 
paragraph : 

"Appropriate  adjustments  in  allotments  will  be  considered  periodically  on  the 
basis  of  fluctuations  in  the  business  transacted  after  the  initial  allotments  are 
established.  The  first  of  such  adjustments  will  be  made  as  of  January  1,  1944, 
on  the  basis  of  the  average  monthly  business  transacted  during  the  calendar 
months  from  the  close  of  the  period  used  for  the  establishment  of  the  initial 
allotment  to  November  30,  1943.  Thereafter,  appropriate  adjustments  will  be 
made  as  of  July  1  and  January  1  on  the  basis  of  the  averagfi  monthly  business 
transacted  during  the  periods  from  December  1  to  May  31  and  June  1  to  Novem- 
ber 30,  respectively;  provided,  however,  that  in  the  case  of  a  depositary  which 
received  its  initial  allotment  during  such  preceding  six-month  period,  the  adjust- 
ment will  be  based  on  the  business  transacted  from  the  close  of  the  period  used 
in  establishing  the  initial  allotment  to  May  31  or  November  30,  as  the  case 
may  be." 

D.  W.  Bell, 
Acting  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 


Third  Amendment,  April  4,  1944 

Treasury  Department, 
Washington,  April  4,  1944- 
Treasury  Department  Circular  No.  714  dated  June  25,  1943,  as  amended,  is 
hereby  further  amended  as  follows: 

Delete  the  first  two  sentences  of  the  fourth  paragraph  of  section  7  and  insert  in 
lieu  thereof  the  following  sentences: 

"The  depositary  shall  issue  to  each  employer  for  each  payment  of  withheld 
taxes  received  by  the  depositary  from  such  employer  a  depositary  receipt  for 
withheld  taxes  (Form  No.  410,  Revised),  hereinafter  referred  to  as  the  depositary 
receipt.  The  prescribed  form  of  depositary  receipt  is  shown  as  Exhibit  B,  Re- 
vised, of  this  circular." 

A  copy  of  "Exhibit  B,  Revised"  is  attached  hereto. 

D.  W.  Bell, 
Acting  Secretary  of  the  Treasury.

"That  the  Republic  of  Finland,  at  its  option,  may  postpone  the  payment  of

America,  an  agreement  with  the  Republic  of  Finland  for  the  payment  of  the  post- 
poned amounts  in  forty  semiannual  installments,  the  first  two  such  installments 
to  be  paid  during  the  calendar  year  beginning  January  1,  1945,  and  two  to  be  paid

REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       515 

Whereas  Finland  has  exercised  its  option  under  such  joint  resolution  to  post- 
pone the  payment  of  the  above-mentioned  aggregate  amount  of  $845,287.24, 
payable  by  Finland  to  the  United  States  during  the  period  from  January  1,  1941 
to  December  31,  1942,  inclusive; 

Now,  therefore,  in  consideration  of  the  premises  and  of  the  mutual  coveiiants 
herein  contained,  it  is  agreed  as  follows: 

1.  Payment  of  the  aggregate  amount  of  $845,287.24,  payable  by  Finland  to  the 
United  States  during  the  period  from  January  1,  1941,  to  December  31,  1942, 
inclusive,  in  respect  to  the  indebtedness  of  Finland  to  the  United  States,  according 
to  the  terms  of  the  aforementioned  agreements,  is  hereby  postponed  so  that  the 
amount  of  $845,287.24  shall  be  paid  by  Finland  to  the  United  States  in  twenty 
equal  annuities  of  $42,264.36  each,  payable  in  United  States  dollars  in  equal  semi- 
annual installments  on  June  15  and  December  15  of  each  calendar  year  beginning 
January  1,  1945,  and  concluding  with  the  calendar  year  beginning  January  1,  1964. 

The  "respective  amounts  postponed,  which  compose  the  aggregate  amount  of 
$845,287.24  postponed  under  this  agreement,  shall  not  bear  any  interest  beyond 
the  date  when  such  amounts  first  become  payable  under  the  agreements  between 
Finland  and  the  United  States  dated  May  1,  1923,  May  23,  1932,  and  May  1, 
1941.  The  bonds  dated  December  15,  1922,  numbered  9,  matured  December  15, 
1931,  in  the  principal  amount  of  $55,000;  18,  matured  December  15,  1940,  in  the 
principal  amount  of  $76,000;  19,  matured  December  15,  1941,  in  the  principal 
amount  of  $79,000;  and  20,  matured  December  15,  1942,  in  the  principal  amount 
of  $82,000,  and  delivered  by  Finland  to  the  United  States  under  the  agreement  of 
May  1,  1923,  shall  be  retained  by  the  United  States  until  the  annuities  due  under 
this  agreement  shall  have  been  paid. 

2.  Except  so  far  as  otherwise  expressly  provided  in  this  agreement,  payments 
of  annuities  under  this  agreement  shall  be  subject  to  the  same  terms  and  condi- 
tions as  payments  under  the  agreement  of  May  1,  1923,  above  mentioned.  The 
proviso  in  paragraph  2  of  such  agreement,  authorizing  the  postponement  of  pay- 
ments on  account  of  principal,  and  the  option  of  Finland  provided  for  in  para- 
graph 4,  to  pay  in  obligations  of  the  United  States,  shall  not  apply  to  annuities 
payable  under  this  agreement. 

3.  The  agreements  of  May  1,  1923,  May  23,  1932,  and  May  1,  1941,  between 
Finland  and  the  United  States,  above  mentioned,  shall  remain  in  all  respects  in 
full  force  and  effect  except  so  far  as  expressly  modified  by  this  agreement. 

4.  Finland  and  the  United  States,  each  for  itself,  represents  and  agrees  that 
the  execution  and  delivery  of  this  agreement  have  in  all  respects  been  duly  author- 
ized and  that  all  acts,  conditions,  and  legal  formalities  which  should  have  been 
completed  prior  to  the  making  of  this  agreement  have  been  completed  as  required 
by  the  laws  of  Finland  and  the  United  States,  respectively,  and  in  conformity 
therewith. 

5.  This  agreement  shall  be  executed  in  two  counterimrts,  each  of  which  shall 
have  the  force  and  effect  of  an  original. 

In  witness  whereof,  Finland  has  caused  this  agreement  to  be  executed  on  its 
behalf  by  its  Envoy  Extraordinary  and  Minister  Plenipotentiary  at  Washington, 
thereunto  duly  authorized,  and  the  United  States  has  likewise  caused  this  agree- 
ment to  be  executed  on  its  behalf  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  pursuant  to 
a  joint  resolution  of  Congress  approved  June  12,  1941,  all  on  the  day  and  year 
first  above  written.

Washington,  D.  C,  December  5,  1944-

TABLES 


517 


EXPLANATION  OF  BASES  USED  IN  TABLES 

Figures  in  the  following  tables  are  shown  on  various  bases,  namely:  (1)  daily 
Treasury  statements,  (2)  Public  Debt  accounts,  (3)  warrants  issued,  (4)  checks 
issued,  and  (5)  collections  reported  by  collecting  officers. 

Daily  Treasury  statements. — The  figures  shown  in  the  Daily  Statement  of  the 
United  States  Treasury  are  compiled  from  the  latest  daily  reports  received  by  the 
Treasurer  of  the  United  States  from  Government  depositaries  and  Treasury 
offices  holding  Government  funds.  The  daily  Treasury  statement,  therefore,  is 
a  current  report  compiled  from  latest  available  information,  and,  by  reason  of  the 
promptness  with  which  the  information  is  obtained  and  made  public,  it  has  come 
into  general  use  as  reflecting  the  financial  operations  of  the  Government  covering 
a  given  period  and  the  condition  of  the  Treasury  as  it  is  ascertainable  from  day  to 
day.  This  is  known  as  "current  cash  basis"  according  to  daily  Treasury  state 
ments.  The  current  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Treasurer's  accounts  are  also 
available  on  this  basis.  The  figures  as  shown  in  current  daily  Treasury  statements 
are  the  basis  for  the  Budget  estimates  of  receipts  and  expenditures,  public  debt, 
and  condition  of  the  Treasury  submitted  to  Congress  by  the  President. 

Public  Debt  accounts. — On  account  of  the  distance  of  some  of  the  Treasury 
offices  and  depositaries  from  the  Treasury,  it  is  obvious  that  the  reports  from  all 
offices  covering  a  particular  day's  transactions  cannot  be  received  and  assembled 
in  the  Treasury  at  one  time  without  delaying  for  several  days  the  publication  of 
the  daily  Treasury  statement.  It  is  not  practicable  to  delay  the  pul  lication  of  the 
daily  Treasury  statement  in  order  to  include  the  latest  reports.  It  is  necessary, 
therefore,  in  order  to  exhibit  the  actual  public  debt  receipts  and  expenditures  for 
any  given  fiscal  year,  to  take  into  consideration  those  reports  covering  the  trans- 
actions toward  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year  concerned  which  have  not  been  received 
in  the  Treasury  until  the  succeeding  fiscal  j^ear,  and  to  eliminate  receipts  and 
expenditures  relating  to  the  preceding  fiscal  year.  After  taking  into  consideration 
these  reports  the  revised  figures  indicate  the  status  of  the  public  debt  on  the  basis 
of  actual  transactions  during  the  period  under  review  as  reflected  by  the  Public 
Debt  accounts.     This  is  known  as  "the  basis  of  Public  Debt  accounts." 

Warrants  issued  (receipts). — Section  305  of  the  Revised  Statutes  provides  that 
receipts  for  all  moneys  received  by  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  shall  be 
endorsed  upon  warrants  signed  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  without  which 
warrants,  so  signed,  no  acknowledgment  for  money  received  into  the  Public 
Treasury  shall  be  valid.  The  issuance  of  warrants  by  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury,  as  provided  by  law,  represents  the  formal  covering  of  receipts  into 
the  Treasury. 

Certificates  of  deposit  covering  actual  deposits  in  Treasury  offices  and  deposi- 
taries, upon  which  covering  warrants  are  based,  cannot  reach  the  Treasury 
simultaneously,  and  for  that  reason  all  receipts  for  a  fiscal  year  cannot  be  covered 
into  the  Treasury  by  warrants  of  the  Secretary  immediately  upon  the  close 
of  that  fiscal  year.  It  is  necessary  to  have  all  certificates  of  deposit  before  a 
statement  can  be  issued  showing  the  total  receipts  for  a  particular  fiscal  year  on  a 
warrant  basis.  The  figures  thus  comjjiled  and  contained  in  this  report  are  on  a 
warrants  issued  basis.  Table  2  (p.  526),  for  years  prior  to  1916,  shows  receipts 
on  this  basis. 

Warrants  issued  (expenditures). — The  Constitution  of  the  United  States  pro- 
vides that  no  money  shall  be  drawn  from  the  Treasury  but  in  consequence  of 
appropriations  made  by  law.  Section  305  of  the  Revised  Statutes  requires  that 
the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States  shall  disburse  the  moneys  of  tlie  United 
States  upon  warrants  drawn  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury.  As  the  warrants 
are  issued  by  the  Secretary  they  are  charged  against  the  appropriate  appropria- 
tions provided  by  law.  Some  of  these  warrants  do  not  represent  actual  pay- 
ments to  claimants,  but  are  merely  advances  of  funds  to  be  placed  to  the  credit 

519 


520       REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY 

of  disbursing  officers  of  the  Government  with  the  Treasurer  of  the  United  States 
for  the  payment  of  Government  obligations.  The  disbursing  officer  then  issues 
his  check  on  the  Treasurer  in  payment  of  such  obligations.  As  far  as  the  appro- 
priation accounts  are  concerned,  the  warrants  issued  and  charged  thereto  consti- 
tute expenditures,  but  it  will  be  observed  that  such  expenditures  necessarily 
include  unexpended  balances  to  the  credit  of  the  disbursing  officers. 

Checks  issued  (expenditures). — This  basis,  more  than  any  other,  reflects  the 
real  expenditures  of  the  Government.  Expenditures  for  a  given  fiscal  year  on 
the  basis  of  checks  issued  differ  from  the  corresponding  figures  on  the  basis  of 
warrants  in  that  the  former  include  expenditures  made  by  disbursing  officers 
from  credits  granted  during  the  previous  fiscal  year,  and  exclude  the  amount  of 
unexpended  balances  remaining  to  their  credit  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year.  The 
basis  of  checks  issued  differs  from  the  basis  of  the  daily  Treasury  statement 
in  that  the  former  includes  checks  outstanding  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year, 
and  excludes  unpaid  checks  outstanding  at  the  beginning  of  the  fiscal  year.  A 
detailed  explanation  of  the  basis  of  checks  issued  will  be  found  on  page  89  of  the 
Secretary's  report  for  1927.    Table  17  (p.  591)  shows  expenditures  on  this  basis. 

Collections  reported  by  collecting  officers  (receipts). — Statements  showing 
receipts  on  a  collection  basis  are  compiled  from  reports  received  by  the  various 
administrative  offices  from  collecting  officers  in  the  field,  such  as  collectors  of 
internal  revenue  and  collectors  of  customs.  These  reports  cover  the  collections 
actually  made  by  these  officers  during  the  period  specified.  The  collections  are 
then  deposited  in  a  designated  Government  depositary  to  the  credit  of  the  Treas- 
urer of  the  United  States,  which  depositary  renders  a  report  to  the  Treasurer. 
The  reports  of  the  collecting  officers  and  the  depositaries  do  not,  of  course,  coin- 
cide, for  the  reason  that  the  collecting  officers  make  collections  during  the  last 
few  days  of  the  fiscal  year  which  are  not  deposited  until  after  the  close  of  the 
fiscal  year.  On  this  account  the  two  reports  do  not  agree.  The  receipts  are 
reported  on  a  collection  basis  merely  for  statistical  purposes  and  to  furnish  infor- 
mation as  to  detailed  sources  of  revenue.  Classification  of  such  items  on  the 
basis  of  deposits  has  been  found  to  be  impracticable  and  uneconomical.  Table 
8  (p.  565)  shows  receipts  on  a  collection  basis. 

DESCRIPTION  OF  ACCOUNTS  THROUGH  WHICH  TREASURY 
OPERATIONS    ARE    EFFECTED 

All  receipts  of  the  Government  are  covered  into  the  General  Fund  of  the  Treas- 
ury from  which  all  expenditures  are  made.  Receipts  and  expenditures,  however, 
are  classified  in  the  Treasury's  records  according  to  the  class  of  accounts  through 
which  operations  are  effected.  Transactions  are  segregated  in  order  to  exhibit 
separately  those  effected  through  general  and  special  accounts,  as  contrasted  with 
those  effected  through  trust  accounts.  This  classification  was  first  shown  for 
the  warrants  and  checks-issued  bases  and  op  the  daily  Treasury  statements 
beginning  with  the  July  1,  1933,  issue,  in  order  to  conform  to  the  practice  of  the 
Bureau  of  the  Budget.  In  some  tables  in  this  report,  however,  transactions  in 
the  three  types  of  accounts  are  combined  for  purposes  of  historical  comparison. 
A  brief  general  explanation  of  the  three  classes  of  accounts  is  presented  below. 

General  accounts. — The  principal  sources  of  general  account  receipts  are 
income  taxes,  miscellaneous  internal  revenue,  social  security  taxes,  taxes  upon 
carriers  and  their  employees,  and  customs  duties.  In  addition,  a  large  number  of 
miscellaneous  receipts  come  under  this  head,  including  such  items  as  proceeds  of 
Government-owned  securities  (except  those  which  are  applicable  to  public  debt 
retirement),  sale  of  surplus  and  condemned  property,  Panama  Canal  tolls,  fees 
(including  consular  and  passport  fees),  fines,  penalties,  forfeitures,  rentals,  royal- 
ties, reimbursements,  immigration  head  tax,  sale  of  public  land,  seigniorage  on 
coinage  of  subsidiary  silver  and  minor  coins,  etc.  Moneys  represented  in  the 
general  accounts  may  be  withdrawn  from  the  Treasury  only  in  pursuance  of 
appropriations  made  by  Congress.  There  are  five  classes  of  appropriations 
payable  through  the  general  accounts  of  the  Treasury,  namely:  (a)  Annual, 
being  those  which  are  available  for  incurring  obligations  only  during  a  specified 
fiscal  year;  (b)  multiple-year,  being  those  which  are  available  for  incurring  obliga- 
tions for  a  definite  period  in  excess  of  one  fiscal  year;  (c)  continuing  (no  year), 
being  available  for  incurring  obligations  until  exhausted  or  until  the  object  for 
which  afpropriated  has  been  accomplished;  (d)  permanent-specific,  being  fixed 
amounts  provided  for  each  of  a  .series  of  years  by  permanent  legislation,  without 
annual  action  of  Congress;  and  (e)  permanent-indefinite,  being  indefinite  amounts 
(so  much  as  may  be  necessary)  provided  by  permanent  legislation  Mithout  annual 
action  of  Congress,  such  as  the  indefinite  appropriation  to  cover  interest  on  the 
public  debt. 


REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  TREASURY       521 

A  statement  of  general  account  receipts  and  expenditures  is,  therefore,  in  the 
nature  of  a  general  operating  statement,  and  gives  a  picture  of  the  relationship 
between  the  general  revenues  of  the  Government  and  the  operating  expenditures 
(including  capital  outlays  and  fixed  charges)  chargeable  against  them. 

Special  accounts. — Special  account  receipts  may  be  generally  defined  as  funds 
received  under  special  authorizations  of  law  which  may  be  expended  only  for 
the  particular  purposes  specified  therein.  Special  account  receipts  may  not  be 
used  for  the  general  expenditures  of  the  Government.  The  more  important 
items  of  receipts  included  under  this  heading,  from  the  standpoint  of  amounts 
other  than  those  applicable  to  the  retirement  of  the  public  debt  are  the  reclamation 
fund  and  receipts  under  the  Mineral  Leasing  Act  under  the  Department  of  the 
Interior,  the  national  forest  funds  under  the  Department  of  Agriculture,  war 
contributions,  and  deposits  for  defense  aid  under  lend-lease  legislation.  There 
are  many  other  special  account  receipts  of  lesser  importance. 

Trust  accounts. — Trust  account  receipts  represent  moneys  received  by  the 
Goverrmient  for  the  benefit  of  individuals  or  classes  of  individuals  and  are  used 
for  purposes  specified  in  the  trust.  Moneys  held  in  trust,  being  payable  to  or 
for  the  use  of  beneficiaries  only,  are  not  available  for  general  expenditures  of  the 
Government.  There  are  several  classes  of  trust  account  receipts,  the  beneficiaries 
under  which  may  be  either  individuals  or  groups  of  individuals.  The  accounts 
may  represent  (a)  moneys  received  directly  from  or  for  account  of  individuals, 
as  in  the  case  of  moneys  received  from  foreign  governments  or  other  sources  in 
trust  for  citizens  of  the  United  States  or  others  under  the  act  of  February  27. 
1896;  (b)  moneys  collected  as  revenues  and  held  in  trust,  such  as  the  proceeds  of 
sales  of  Indian  lands  which  are  held  as  interest-bearing  funds  for  the  benefit  of 
Indian  tribes;  (c)  proceeds  of  grants  from  the  general  accounts  of  the  Treasury 
in  pursuance  of  treaty  or  other  obligations  such  as  the  perpetual  trust  fund 
created  for  the  Ute  Indians  under  section  5  of  the  act  of  June  15,  1880;  (d)  de- 
posits, donations,  or  contributions  for  specified  purposes,  such  as  funds  received 
for  the  purchase  of  lands  in  the  national  parks;  and  (e)  deposits  to  be  held  until 
appropriate  disposition  thereof  can  be  made,  such  as  proceeds  from  the  redemp- 
tion of  bonds  found  and  whose  owners  are  unknown. 

Checking  accounts  of  Government  corporations. — The  manner  in  which  certain 
checking  accounts  of  Government  corporations  are  handled  in  the  daily  state- 
ment of  the  Treasury  was  explained  in  the  announcement  appearing  on  page  347 
of  the  annual  report  for  1938.

Note.— Dollar  figures  are  rounded  to  nearest  tenth  of  a  million  and  percentage  figures  to  nearest  tenth  of 
a  percent  and  will  not  necessarily  add  to  totals. 

'  The  detail  of  income  taxes  and  miscellaneous  internal  revenue  taxes  is  on  the  basis  of  internal  revenue  col- 
lections with  totals  adjusted  to  the  basis  of  the  daily  Treasury  statement.  Employment  taxes,  railroad 
employment  insurance  contributions,  customs,  and  miscellaneous  receipts  are  shown  on  the  daily  Treasury 
statement  basis.    General  and  special  accounts  are  combined. 

2  Because  of  the  time  required  for  payments  reported  as  tax  collections  toward  the  end  of  each  month  to 
clear  through  the  hanks  and  become  available  for  expenditures  on  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis,  an 
adjustment  from  the  collection  basis  to  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  is  necessary.  A  positive  adjust- 
ment indicates  that  during  the  fiscal  year  more  tax  receipts  on  a  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  have  been 
received  than  are  reported  as  collections,  and  a  negative  adjustment  indicates  the  reverse  situation. 

3  Less  than  .05  percent. 

<  Amounts  actually  withheld  are  reported  on  a  collection  basis  by  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  in  the 
first  and  second  months  following  the  quarter  in  which  the  actual  withholding  took  place.  On  the  daily 
Treasury  statement  basis  a  large  portion  of  the  amounts  withheld  are  reported  in  the  first  month  following 
the  month  in  which  the  actual  withholding  took  place.  The  adjustment  is  the  difference  between  the  figure 
shown  on  a  collection  basis  and  the  figure  shown  on  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  for  the  given  period. 

5  Credits  to  trust  fmids  are  not  included. 

'  Includes  collections  from  taxes  on  narcotics,  taxes  imposed  under  the  National  Firearms  Act,  and  the  tax 
on  hydraulic  mming,  all  of  which  are  effective  currently.  In  addition,  includes  collections  from  excise  taxes 
repealed  prior  to  and  including  the  Revenue  Act  of  1942  (consisting  primarily  of  rubber  articles,  electric 
signs,  optical  eqilipment,  and  washing  machines);  collections  from  the  tobacco,  matches,  tires  and  tubes 
floor  stocks  taxes  imposed  by  the  Revenue  Acts  of  1941  and  1942;  and  collections  under  the  Bituminous  Coa  J 
Act  of  1937  which  expired  August  24,  1943.

1  For  bonds  selling  above  par  and  callable  at  par  before  maturity,  the  yields  are  computed  on  the  basis  of 
redemption  at  first  call  date;  while  for  bonds  selling  below  par,  yields  are  computed  to  maturity.  Monthly 
averages  are  averages  of  daily  figures.  Each  daily  figure  is  an  unweighted  average  of  the  yields  of  the  indi- 
vidual issues.  Prior  to  Sept.  1,  1941,  yields  were  computed  on  the  basis  of  the  day's  closing  price  on  the 
New  York  Stock  Exchange  except  that  on  days  when  an  issue  did  not  sell  the  yield  was  computed  on  the 
mean  of  closing  bid  and  ask  quotations  on  the  Stock  Exchange.  Commencing  Sept.  1, 1941,  yields  are  com- 
puted on  the  basis  of  the  mean  of  closing  bid  and  ask  quotations  in  the  over-the-counter  market.  For 
average  yields  by  months  from  January  1919  through  December  1929,  see  p.  662  of  the  annual  report  for  1943. 
The  table  below"  shows  the  issues  of  Treasury  bonds  which  are  included  in  the  averages  above.

Note. — Figures  are  rounded  and  will  not  necessarily  add  to  totals.  Figures  in  this  table  have  been  revised 
and  are  not  necessarily  comparable  with  material  presented  in  the  1943  annual  report:  (1)  Securities  of  the 
United  States  Government  and  Federal  instrumentalities  guaranteed  by  the  United  States  have  been 
revised  to  a  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  after  June  30,  1919;  (2)  securities  issued  directly  to  and  held  by 
the  United  States  Treasury  are  no  longer  included  in  issues  outstanding;  and  (3)  certain  securities  issued  "on 
credit  of  the  United  States"  have  been  reclassified  as  nonguaranteed  securities  of  Federal  instrumentalities. 

*Less  than  $500,000. 

1  The  "total  amount  outstanding"  of  securities  of  the  several  issuers  differs  from  the  gross  indebtedness 
of  these  issuers  in  that  the  former  excludes  noninterest-bearing  debt.  The  "total  privately  held  securities" 
difiers  from  the  net  indebtedness  of  the  borrowers  in  several  additional  respects.  The  former  is  derived 
by  deducting  from  the  total  amount  of  interest-bearing  securities  outstanding  the  amount  of  such  securi- 
ties held  by  Federal  agencies.  Federal  Reserve  Banks,  and  by  public  sinking,  trust,  and  investment  funds. 
Net  indebtedness,  on  the  other  hand,  is  derived  by  deducting  from  the  gross  indebtedness  an  amount 
equivalent  to  the  total  volume  of  sinking  fund  assets  of  the  respective  borrowers,  but  makes  no  allowance 
for  any  other  public  assets. 

2  In  the  case  of  data  which  include  United  States  savings  bonds,  Series  A-D,  E ,  and  F,  the  figures  for  these 
bonds  represent  current  redemption  values. 

'  Data  for  June  30,  1920,  to  date  on  daily  Treasury  statement  basis;  data  for  prior  years  on  Public  Debt 
accounts  basis.

Note.— Figures  are  rounded  and  vrill  not  necessarily  add  to  totals. 

'  Revised. 

'  The  amount  of  customs  duties  is  calculated  on  the  basis  of  reports  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  showing 
the  quantity  and  value  of  merchandise  imported.  Figures  for  1934  were  compiled  by  the  Bureau  of 
Foreign  and  Domestic  Commerce;  figures  for  1935  and  subsequent  years  were  compiled  by  the  Treasury 
Department.  For  figures  back  to  1867,  see  annual  reports  for  1930,  p.  523;  1932,  p.  382;  and  corresponding 
tables  in  subsequent  reports. 

2  Imports  into  the  Virgin  Islands  from  foreign  countries  not  included  in  "dutiable"  imports  for  1935  and 
subsequent  years.

'  Details  of  income  taxes  and  miscellaneous  internal  revenue  on  collection  basis  with  adjustments  to  basis 
of  the  daily  Treasury  statement.  Details  of  miscellaneous  receipts  on  basis  of  warrants  issued  with  total 
adjusted  to  basis  of  the  daily  Treasury  statement.  Details  of  expenditures  on  checks-issued  basis  with  totals 
adjusted  to  basis  of  the  daily  Treasury  statement. 

2  Because  of  the  time  required  for  payments  reported  as  tax  collections  toward  the  end  of  each  month  to 
clear  through  the  banks  and  become  available  for  expenditures  on  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis,  an 
adjustment  from  the  collection  basis  to  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  is  necessary.  A  positive  adjust- 
ment indicates  that  during  the  fiscal  year  more  tax  receipts  on  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  have  been 
received  than  are  reported  as  collections,  and  a  negative  adjustment  indicates  the  reverse  situation. 

5  Amounts  actually  withheld  are  reported  on  a  collection  basis  by  the  Bureau  of  Internal  Revenue  in  the 
first  and  second  months  following  the  quarter  in  which  the  actual  withholdings  took  place.  On  the  daily 
Treasury  statement  basis  a  large  portion  of  the  amounts  withheld  is  reported  in  the  first  month  following 
the  month  in  which  the  actual  withholdings  took  place.  The  adjustment  is  the  difference  between  the 
figure  shown  on  a  collection  basis  and  the  figure  shown  on  the  daily  Treasury  statement  basis  for  the  given 
period. 

*  Collections  for  credit  to  trust  funds  are  not  included. 

5  Includes  collections  from:  Taxes  on  narcotics,  taxes  imposed  under  the  National  Firearms  Act,  and  the 
tax  on  hydraulic  mining,  all  of  which  are  effective  currently.  In  addition,  includes  coOections  from  excise 
taxes  repealed  or  suspended  prior  to  and  including  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943  (consisting  primarily  of  rubber 
articles,  electric  signs,  optical  equipment,  washing  machines,  vacuum  cleaners,  and  manufacturers'  tax  on 
luggage) ;  collections  from  the  tobacco,  matches  and  tires  and  tubes  floor  stocks  taxes  imposed  by  the  Revenue 
Acts  of  1941  and  1942;  and  collections  from  the  tax  under  the  Bituminous  Coal  Act  of  1937  which  expired 
August  24,  1943.  However,  collections  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  from  the  manufacturers'  tax  on  luggage  are 
included  with  the  manufacturers'  excise  taxes. 

«  Includes  estimated  collections  of  $243,200,000  in  the  fiscal  year  1945  and  $301,000,000  in  the  fiscal  year  1946 
which  the  Federal  Government  pays  to  itself  as  a  result  of  the  elimination  of  exemptions  to  the  Federal 
Government  from  certain  taxes  under  the  Revenue  Act  of  1943. 

'  Result  of  an  unappropriated  balance  of  prior  year  transferred  to  the  trust  fund  receipt  account  during 
current  fiscal  year  "Deposits  for  salaries  and  expenses,  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  Administration." 

8  Deposits  amounting  to  $24,366,000  accepted  in  the  fiscal  year  1943  by  the  Navy  Department  as  an  over-all 
adjustment  for  savings  in  cost  over  estimates  on  work  in  progress  for  the  Navy,  and  not  obtained  as  a  result 
of  a  renegotiation  of  any  particular  contract,  transferred  in  the  fiscal  year  1944  to  "Voluntary  return  of  exces- 
sive profits,"  which  is  included  in  "Reimbursements,  excessive  profits  on  renegotiated  contracts." 

« Includes  cash  refunds  which  are  recoveries  of  excessive  profits  from  renegotiation  of  war  contracts  which 
would  not  have  been  collected  as  taxes,  plus  those  amounts  which  would  have  been  collected  as  taxes  if  the 
corporation  had  filed  a  definitive  tax  return  prior  to  the  determination  of  the  amount  of  excessive  profits. 

10  Result  of  receipts  covered  in  fiscal  year  1942  and  transferred  to  General  Fund  account  in  fiscal  year  1944. 

»  Represents  transfer  of  unappropriated  balance  of  prior  year  receipts  to  appropriation  account  "Rents,

account  for  Bonneville  project. 

13  Includes  $23,675,742.51  sale  of  Government  property— products  under  War  Department.

fiscal  year  1946  will  be  submitted  to  the  Congress  as  a  part  of  a  supplementary  Budget  in  the  spring  of  1945. 
Consequently  the  estimated  expenditures  for  the  fiscal  year  1946  are  tentative.

Price  Administration,  Office  of  Strategic  Services,  and  Petroleum  Administration  for  War.
