ACQUITTAL OF
MITCHELL WILL
NOT BLOCK Law

Washington, June 23-(UP)-
Congressional leaders expect the
ecquittal of Charles L. Mitchell OF
income tax evasion charges to
speed revision of the tax, law to
close loopholes through which
many wealthy persons have avoid
cd payments.
MANY rich men have escaped
taxes by taking losses on the stock
exchange" said Senator Dickinson.
repn, Ia 1.-The Mitchell case again
points to the necessity for legis-
lation to tighten the income tax
law so that the rich will not be
able to wiggle out through loop
holes. .. Senators King. dem, Utah
and Adams. dem, Colo, shared
Dickinson's view.
A house subcommittee now is
conducting a secret inquiry. pre-
paratory to drafting changes in
tered on the provisions permitting
losses on sales of stock to be de-
Quoted from income. After the
Morgan investigation, this was al
tered to prevent carrying over of
deductions from one year to an
other. There is much sentiment
now for imposing further limita-
tons.
Attorney General Cummings said
the Mitchell verdict would not
cause the justice department to
relax in the slightest its investiga-
lions and prosecution of cases OF
alleged income tax evasion.
This was only an accident" he
said. 1T cannot affect the duty of
this department or its investiga-
ton policy"
