At the moment, it was said. citrus

Firm Spent Million
To Aid Presidents
Wife, Suit Charges
CeIonese Corp. Accused
Of Wasting Money to
Further Singers Career
BY The Associated Press.

4 BY me Associated Press.
NEW YORK. March 1.-THE
| board Of directors of the CelaneSe
| Corp. OF America was charged yes
| terday, in a stockholders action.
with spending more than $1,000 900
to further the career of Jean Ten
nyson, radio singer. described as the
wife of the corporations president,
Camille Dreyfus
The action was filed in Supreme
! Court by Seymour Bayer. 1t sought
recovery of $3.50 900 from the di-
rectors of the corporation, which
manufactures yarns and fabrics.
Mr. Bayer charged that despite
the fact that the corporations pro-
duction was curtailed, and that it
was unable to fill the demand for
its products, the directors embarked
on an advertising program costing
more than $l,0O0,000 for 1912, in
sponsoring weekly half-hour radio
musicale over Station WABC and a
network of 116 stations of the Co.
lumbia Broadcasting System.
Aid to Singer Charged.
The featured singer, the COM
plant stated, was Miss Tennyson,
the wife of Mr.. Dreyfus, and, it
charged, the program was designed
to further. foster and subsidize the
career, fortunes and popularity of
said Jean Tennyson."
Mr.. Bayer claimed in the suit that
the radio advertising was entered
into with the knowledge, consent and
cooperation of Mr.. Dreyfus and the
board of directors, all Of whom are
named as defendants in the action.
Mr. Bayer further claimed that the
corporation had entered into similar
radio commitments for l943 "for the
particular and personal benefit of
the wife Of Camille Dreyfus." Mr..
Bayer asked for an accounting Of all
wasted moneys" and sought reim-
bursement from the directors.
Second Complaint Involved.
In addition, Mr.. Bayer asked for
the recovery of $350,000 for which he
said the corporation was now liable
to the Government on $l,750,000 paid
to Henri Dreyfus, brother of Camille,
and vice president of the corporation.
The complaint alleged that the
directors concealed from the Gov
eminent that Henri Dreyfus was a
nonresident alien and failed to pay
to the Government, under the inter-
nal revenue codeSmoney that should
have been withheld from payments
to Henri.

2. Such taxpayers would come
under the Withholding levy. start
ing July if they earned wages or
salaries, and would have the option
OF continuing to pay in one year on
the basis of income in the previous
year, as at present or, if they de-
sired now or in the future, could
double up by paying off the pre-
vious year and thus start pay-as-
yougo, Withholdings Of wages or
salaries then would be applied
against the tax obligation on their
current year income. The COM
mlttee is considering a discount of
perhaps 5 or 10 per cent on out
standing tax obligations for persons
paying off the previous year in full
and becoming current.
Effect on New Taxpayers.
3. In the case of new taxpayers.
about 100000 persons having tax
able income for the first time in
1943, the withholdings would begin
July l and they would have only
the first half of 1943 to catch up"
to become current.
4. Taxpayers whose liability ran
to more than the 20 per cent with
holding rate, and those In the first
bracket $4,000 or less taxable hav-
ing income other than wages and
salaries, would pay their third and
fourth installments of the 1912 OBJ
legation after deducting the amount
of taxes withheld by the 20 per cent
levy.
Still to be decided on by the COM
mittee is a means of periodic pay
mentS for persons with income from
sources other than wages and SAL
aries, including farmers, business
and professional men.
The withholding levy, covering
both income and Victory tax obliga-
tons, would be imposed through
weekly, semimonthly or monthly de-
auctions from pay envelopes and
salary checks regardless of whether
such collections were credited
against the individuals tax obliga-
ton on the last years income or
against the current year. @
This levy would not be a straight
20 per cent deduction against wages
and salaries, but against the por-
tons of such earnings remaining
after deductions were made on the
basis of dependents. Neither would
it be an additional tax, but means
OF collecting actual taxes through
wage and salary deductions.
