TAX EVASION BILL
TO WHITE HOUSE
House Completes Congress.
siona| Action by Approx
ina Amendments.
BY the Associated Press.

IS tiie hSSoSlaiCu TleSS
A bill to seal loopholes in the reve-
nue. laws as a means OF preventing tax
avoidance and evasion received final
congressional approval today and went
to the White House for the President S
signature.
The House completed congressional
action by approving minor Senate
amendments.
Mr.. Roosevelt had requested the
measure when he found revenue fan-
ing below expectations. He said
wealthy persons had been able to save
from s75,O000Oo to sl0o,000,000 a
year by tax devices the new law will
make illegal.
The bill first attacks the practice
| of forming personal holding COM
panies,' by levying tax OF from 65
to rs per cent on the undistr'bute,l
income from such firms. The rates
have been to 48 per cent.
The bill also is designed to:
Prevent deduction from net income
| of any losses caused by sales or trades
between relatives or corporations they
| control
| Stop the practice OF individual, in
| cooperating their personal talents and
| posseSsions-such as yachts and coun-
try eStates--to avoid taxes.
Curb the use Of foreign olding
companies by new system OF COM
putting their gross income.
Tax the income of multiple trusts,
now allegedly used to scatter the
taxable income Of one person.
Increase levies on the income Of
nonresident aliens.
The Treasury Department low has
a corps Of experts studying the whole
Federal tax law structure. The de-
partment will take their findings,
officials said as basis for recon-
mendations for a general overhaulug
at the next session of Congress.
The special loophole-c.o, l,gisla-
ton was asked by Mr.. Roosevelt as
an emergency measure, before any
general revision could be drafted.

NEWPLANONCOLD
Proposed System May In.
Volve Higher Taxes on
Foreign Investments.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Federal monetary authorities dis
closed yesterday they are considering
replacing the gold sterilization pro-
gram with new machinery to cushion
domestic credit against gold move
ments.
The proposed system, they said, may
involve higher taxes on foreign in
vestments here and a requirement
that banks freeze" large portion OF
foreign deposits as additional reserves.
Under the present sterilization pro-
gram, the Treasury borrows from the
money market to pay for gold acquisi-
tlonS. This removes from the supply
of lendable money sums equal to those
put in by gold imports, and keeps the
credit supply even.
Issuance Of Currency.
Formerly the Treasury paid for gold
acquisitions through the issuance of
currency against the gold This
tended to swell the supply OF lendable
money, and created concern among
some authorities that harmful credit
imitation might develop. The arrange
ment would be resumed, however, if
the new plan were inaugurated
About 81 ,265, 100000 of gold already
has been sterili0ed under the existing
program, which was started last De-
cember. The plan has been criticized
on the ground that it increases the
public debt and Government interest
requirements
If the new arrangement should be
enected, officials said, the gold already
sterilized would be left in its separate
fund. to be used only to meet demands
for gold exports. The money paid for
shipments OF gold then would be ap-
piled to reduction of the debt.
Understanding on Gold.
Authorities said some international
understanding on gold movements
probably would be sought before any
new system was started. They said
the Treasury would take no action in
dependently which might upset world
monetary and financial relationships.
Because gold movements represent
transfers OF capital from one coun-
try to another, ofncials said a heavier
tax on foreign investments here would
tend to discourage speculative security
buying and thus would prevent sud-
den shifts OF gold.
Foreigners now pay 10 per cent
tax on income from investments in
this country.
