—
WASHINGTON, I). C., Mar. 14—j
The Cooljdge administration will never |
I consent to the provision inserted by I
j the House in the spending tax bill mak- j
! ing income tax returns available to a j
special committee of congress
! The opposition to move from the
treasury is so emphatic that this, to
' gether with other objectionable fea
tures in the tax bill, may be the basis
; for a veto message from the White
House.
! Should congress have the right to
j throw open to the public gaze the pri
| vate affairs of the American people?
Should one business concern engaged
in sharp competition with another and
possessed of influence in congress suf
j ficient to get at the income tax re
| turns be enabled to get facts and fig
; ures on rival concerns ? Should mem
bers of congress be given new ammu
; nition with which to attack private
i concerns. These questions are answer
led in the negative by administration
i officials who think that income tax re
turns should be kept secret. Indeed,
; the treasury department has therefore
I refused point blank to furnish the in
| come tax returns to any other branch
| of the federal government itself, even
j the department of justice. Time and
‘again the latter has felt that without
j sufficient evidence to catch bootleg
gers under the provisions of the Vol
stead Act, a fraudulent income tax re
turn might land the “bootleggers” in
jail. It has been with difficulty and
through roundabout court proceedings
that any information has been obtain
ed and usually the treasury depart
I ment has preferred to do its own pros
ecution of such cases upon information
furnished by the department of jus
tice. So jealously guarded have income
tax returns become in the last ten
years that the thought of making
them available to a committee of con
gress goes against the grain here.
There is some reason to believe that
the senate will throw out the amend
ment and that it will be lost in confer
ence between the two houses. If it
stays in the bill, it may force a veto.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Mar. 15—All
Brazil is preparing to celebrate its |
greatest “festa” of the year, the car
lival. What Christmas, New Year’s,
Fourth of July, and Hallowe'en all
rolled into one, would be to the Ameri
can, carnival is to the Brazilian.
Carnival is said to have been a pa
jan celebration, invented long before
the Christian era, and to have come
town to modern times modified by the |
restraints of civilization. On its way I
to today it has added to the fame of ■
some of the world’s great cities, Ven-1
ice, Rome, Paris and New Orleans. The ;
way carnival is celebrated in Rio de |
Janeiro every year, however, is a more'
spontaneous exhibition of popular en
thusiasm and is played cn a greater
scale than ever seen in any other city
of the world.
Mardi Gras, the final day of the
carnival celebration in this city, falls
this year on March 4. For the last
two months preparations for the cel
ebration have been under way. Hun
dreds of carnival clubs have been or
ganizing their programs, their music,
costumes and floats for the enormous
street parades which will begin March
2 and continue to the dawn of March
5. Millions are being spent in these
preparations and another million will
be spent in fireworks.
