Roosevelt Opposes Charity Tax Break for Corporations
President Roosevelt told over 100 newspaper men that he opposes exempting gifts to charity from federal income tax. He argued such gifts are corporate purchases of goodwill at stockholders’ expense and should be decided by stockholders through dividends. He cited two reasons: gifts are for public good and many live on dividends and should choose charities themselves.
