The three great branches of the Government have a joint concern in this.situation, First, it is the duty of the Congress to remove new loopholes devised hy attorneys for clients willing to take an unethical advantage of society and their own Government. Second, it is the duty of the executive branch of the Government to collect taxes, to investigate fully all questionable cases, tor prosecute where wrong has been done, and to make recommendations for closing lopholes. Third, it is the duty of the courts to give full consideration to the intent of the Congress in passing tax laws and to give full consideration to all evidence which points to an objective of evasion on. the part of the taxpayer. Very | definitely, the issue diately! before us relating to the evasion or unethical avoidance of existing laws.

DUTY OF CONGRESS

But it seems to me that the first duty of the Congress is to empower | the Government to stop these evil | praetices, and that legislation to | this end should not be confused | with legislation to revise tax sched- | ules. That is- a wholly different | subject. In regard to that subject, I have | already suggested to the Congress that at this session there should be

‘no new taxes and no changes of |

rates. And I have indicated to the | Congress that the Treasury will be | prepared by next November to pre- | sent to the appropriate committees mmformation on the basis of which | the Congress may, if it chooses, ! unelertake revisions of the: structure. The long-term problem of tax policy is wholly separate from the immediate problem of glaring evas sion and avoidance of existing law. In this immediate problem the decency of American morals is involved. ;

The example of successful tax {

as tax laws. It is also a matter of dcep regret to know that lawyers of high standing at the bar not only have advised and are advising i clients to utilize tax avoid devices, but are actively these devises in their own personal “affairs. . We hear too often from lawyers, as well as from their clients, the sentiment “it is all right to do it if you can get away with it.” | I am confident that the Congress | {will wish to enact legislation at this session specifically and exclusively {aimed at making the present tax structure’ evasion-proof. I am confident also that the Con- | gress will give to the Treasury all authority necessary to expand and complete the present preliminary investigation, including, of course, full authority to summon witnesses and compel their testimony. The ramifications and the geographical scope {of a complete investigation make it necessary to utilize every power of | Government which can contribute to the end desired. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT.
