Chairman Arthur J. Altmeyer warned Congress that postponing scheduled increases in old age pension taxes would force sharp rises later or shift costs to general taxpayers. He testified to the House Ways and Means Committee as it weighs liberalization and changes urged by Morgenthau. He favored some general revenue contributions to the program and warned 1942 tax collections could be surpassed if current rates are postponed. President Roosevelt nominated Fred H. Brown to comptroller general. Senate finance rejected higher vegetable oil taxes after noting the White House proposal.
