Cabell Defends Tax Law Against Banker Critique
Royal Cabell, commissioner of Internal Revenue, stated that New York bankers overstated the Secretary of the Treasury’s impact on publicity in the corporation tax law. He noted Congress amended the law, countering objections that corporate returns would remain public records under the tariff act. He recalled broad protests from corporations over exposing internal conditions to competitors and referenced the June 17, 1910 legislative change.
