Ballantine said: "Since 1927 the standing joint Committee on nal Revenue Taxation, composed of five members of the House and five members of the Senate, has continuously investigated the administration and development of the tax law."

"There are always suspicious or disgruntled individuals who propose investigation of government officials." Ballantine said, "Particularly those having to do with financial matters without regard to what such investigations impose upon officials or the public." Representative Patman Tex.) who sought the impeachment of Andrew W. Mellon as Secretary of the Treasury, urged that the inquiry be made, "One of the greatest rackets today is the abuse of Government credit by international bankers," he said.

"We are not so much concerned now as to how the Treasury plans to administer the new tax laws, but we are concerned as to how they have been administering the law for the last ten years," Garner said on Ballentine's remarks. "The Treasury does not want the investigation now or in December as suggested by Mr. Ballantine," the Texan said. "If you wait until the Treasury wants it, it'll never war.
