Mr. Fayerweather labels as a myth the "exporting jobs" charge} terms the "tax haven" or "evasion" charge libelous; and warns that any postponement of capital outflow would hurt our country economically. The writer avers individual hardship in our exports is due to a shift toward high technological products which spell real gains for economy; says stockholders who are taxed on paid and not on retained domestic earnings should not be treated differently by being taxed on foreign unrepatriated earnings; and ex¬ plains that a temporary cessation of investments overseas would place us at a competitive disadvantage which we cannot afford.
