Senators Seek Local Control In Federal Relief Reform
Washington April 24 two Republican senators Davis of Pennsylvania and Lodge of Massachusetts urged reorganizing the federal relief system to grant greater local control and distribute funds according to the principle of greatest need. In a minority report on the Senate Unemployment Committee’s investigation they said the majority findings did not go far enough. The committee headed by Senator Byrnes reported repeal of the undistributed profits tax and modification of the capital gains tax would be helpful, but a permanent solution would require more inquiry. Davis and Lodge argued for immediate steps and claimed allocation to states lacked a scientific basis and offered only future reports.
