CASE OF ACTOR
CITED IN TAX
EVASION PROBE.
Prominent Folk Drawn
Into Battle Over
Incomes

WASHINGTON, June 18.
(UP) - Treasury officials
told the joint house-senate
committee on tax avoidance
today that Charles Laugh
ton, well known movie character
actor, caused his salary to be paid
to a British corporation and there
by reduced his income tax pay
mentS in the United States.
Elmer Trey, chief of the intelli-
gence unit of the internal revenue
bureau, said Laughton's action may
be perfectly Legal, but cited the
case to support the treaSury's re-
quest that congress pass "practical
legislation" to close income tax
loopholeS.
simultaneously, Undersecretary
of Treasury Roswell Magill an
nounced that the state department
has undertaken exploratory work
looking toward establishment OF
reciprocal agreements with foreign
countries designed to halt the DOS
sibility of tax avoidance through
formation of personal holding COM
panieS.
Laughton's name was one of six
to be placed before the committee
in its inquiry of methods allegedly
employed by American taxpayers
to avoid federal tax Ievies. Prom
inent among the others was Col
Jacob Schick, retired army officer
who invented the Schick electric
razor, who, Trey said, became a
Canadian citizen, and formed per-
sonal holding companies, and that
"as a result of this taxes were saw
ed"
Sen. Robert M. La Toilette. p
Wis, asked whether any other
names were available in connection
with the foreign holding company
practice.
I'VE are working on our investi-
cation but have not full details. ."

SCHEDULED TO
START MONDAY

Two important jury trials are
scheduled for Imperial County SUI
perior court Monday, the trial of
DR.. and Mrs. T. o. Luckett on
charges of performing an abor-
ton upon an unmarried, Juvenile
girl, and that of A. Richter, charg-
ed with firing two stots at Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles w. Knapp.
1t is understood Deputy District
Attorney D. H. Wolford will move
for separate trial for the Luck
ettS when court convenes Monday
morning. This motion is anticipat-
ed because of technical difficulties
in the way of trying husband and
wife jointly in a case of this type.
Luckett's case is expected to be
set for trial July with the date for
her trial to be set at later date.
The court is expected to proceed
Monday with selection of a jury To

case. He went to the Sheriff's Of
flee after firing two shots at the
couple as they sat in the living
room of their home late last month
and told officers there had been a
shooting.
He said he was angry about

trict from 1922 until early
in 1887, was sentenced to
San Quentin Friday morn
ing on IL counts of embezzlement
of district funds.
recommendations that the SEN
tence on the various counts run
concurrently were made by Judge
R. D. McPherrin and Deputy Dis
trict Attorney D. H. Wolford. The
exact time of the sentence, how
ever, will be set by the state board
of prison terms and paroles. Viola
tion of section 424 of the penal
code, for which he was convicted
by jury June 9, carries SEN
tence of not less than one year or
more than 10 in the state prison.
1t is understood that the board
will not set undetermined sentences
for prisoners convicted upon more
than one count until after they
have served a minimum of two
years.
The man who served the district
as secretary from 1916 until 1884,
was committed to the county jail
Immediately after sentence was
passed, to await transportation to
San Quentin. No date for the trans
fer has been set.
A motion for a new trial was de-
MED by the court before sentence
was passed. The court received a
letter from Walter w. Hoy, McIver's
attorney in which he said his
client had instructed him to dis
continue all legal proceedings" in
connection with the case. These
instructions from Mc1ver, of course,
prevented any further efforts on
the part of his attorney.
McIver went through the usual
court proceedings. answering from
the witness stand the questions
put to him by Wolford so they
might be included in court records.
In his letter to Judge McPher-
rim, Hoy said:
Personally, 1 am persuaded that
as far as yourself, the district at
torney, and even the jury are con-
cerned, that the prosecution OF
this particular case was most dis
tasteful owing to the many years
of more or less close association
which you all had with McIver
Notwithstanding all of these con-
siderations, not one of these I have
mentioned hesitates to perform
their several duties as citizens and
fully respect their oaths of office.
Il am persuaded in view of these
considerations that the intelligence
that the defendant himself respects
rather than reSents the fact that
all persons connected with the pro-
secution ana conduct of the case
unflinchingly did their duty, will
not be unwelcome news"
