...Harrison's Senate Committee was adamant about eliminating the undistributed profits tax entirely, modifying capital gains levies almost out of sight; Bob Doughton's House Committee was equally adamant about saving the Administration's face by preserving the first at least in principle, keeping a fair share of the second. Effect of the Byrnes Committee report was to lend weight to arguments on the Senate side. Two days after its release, the two tax committees met for the seventh time, settled down to thresh the matter out behind closed doors. The doors remained closed for six hours...
...Permission was given by FCC to Ruth Googins Roosevelt, No. 2 wife of No. 2 Son Elliott, to purchase radio station KFJZ at Fort Worth, Tex. for $57,500 (TIME, Sept. 20).

The owners of the 667,539 shares of this issue (among them Donaldson Brown and Mr. & Mrs. Young) were asked to surrender the right to accumulated dividends of $33 per share in exchange for a new type of preferred and a common stock warrant...
What these inhabitants look like, what their share of the U. S. has become, is recorded with indelible indifference by the heartbreaking or horrifying photographs in Land of the Free. They show piercingly characteristic, dead-beat scenes from all over the U. S., with a heavy preponderance from below the Mason-Dixon line. Consequently some may feel that Poet MacLeish's selection doesn't fight fair with All-American self-gratulation, that too many of its blows land below the Bible-belt.
