We have received a report on "Tax Reform" from the U S. Treasury Depart ment which includes a recommendation that the tax-exempt status of my society and all other fraternal benefit societies be repealed. Such a recommendation, if enacted by Congress, signed into law by you. Mr. President, would destroy completely, the self-help, fraternal (ethnic, cultural, religious, etc.) and benevolent programs of the William Penn Association and all other fraternals. Such a result would surely be contrary to a primary thrust of your administra tion to encourage the private sector toward self-help, volunteerism, and charitable programs. The Fraternal Benefit System in America today is very substantially contributing toward those ends. On behalf of the William Penn Association, I respectfully request that you reject the Treasury Department proposal to repeal the tax exempt status of the fraternal benefit societies of America. Thank you for your attention to this very serious issue. /^Respectfully yours. ' Johrisabo National President----JS:gr Richard C.
