Hanna, 800 West Marquette Avenue, Albuquerque, New Mexico. Dear Mr* Hanna: This i s to acknowledge your l e t t e r of February 2h, and while I would not be i n accord with a good many of your conclusions, I have always been as strongly opposed as you appear to be to wasteful and extravagant use of public funds, and t h i s goes f o r wartime as w e l l . "While you are b i t t e r about Government in this country, I might remind you that so f a r as taxation i s concerned, high as our rates are in comparison with the past, they are s t i l l considerably tinder those in England, Canada, and other democratic countries. With regard to the special wartime capital gains tax which 1 suggested when questioned by members of the Senate Banking and Currency Committee the other day, i t would not apply, of course, t o the sale of your property or any other capital assets purchased prior to the e f f e c t i v e date of the special tax. Sincerely yours. M. S. Ecoles, Chairman. ET:b
