TAX BILL HITS
HOLDING FIRMS
Provisions Prevent Diver.
sion by Corporations of
Their Earnings.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April %. - Con-
cealed in the Administration tax bill
which the House begins to debate
tomorrow is another weapon against
the holding company, but this goes
beyond the public utility holding
company to embrace those in other
industries.
The bill carries provisions which
would prevent corpora tons from
evading taxes by diverting earnings
to the books of holding companies,
process that has been used very
effectively.
Z When regulation of holding COM
panies first was considered by the
Administration, one of the alterna-
tive means proposed was the use of
the taxing power. The suggestion
then was to remove the exemption
from taxation enjoyed by holding
companies. That is just what the
present bill does.
Under present law, earnings
passed on to holding companies by
corporations and credited to them
enjoy 80 per cent exemption; only
10 per cent is regarded as taxable
income.
Under the pending bill, if a cor
poration passes earnings to a hold
ing company which owns more than
90 per cent of the stock, such earn
ings can not be considered as dis
tributed" and the corporation will
get no tax credit. If the holding
company should pass on such earn
lngs to another holding company,
they still would not be distributed"
for purposes of computing taxes.
