Two Tax Changes 10 Raise
$145 Million Approved
BY The Associoied Press

The House Ways and Means
Committee yesterday tentatively
voted two changes in present tax
laws to raise an estimated $145
million annually.
Subject to later reconsideration,
the tax writer's decided to:
1. Require mutual savings banks
and building and loan asSocia-
tions to pay the regular corporate
income tax rates on net income
they keep after paying dividends
and interest to depositors. This
would yield about $75 million a
year, committee experts estimated.
y 2. Revise the present law apply
ing to capital gains and losses on
land and depreciable property used
in a taxpayers business. 1t was
estimated this would bring in
$40 million annually.
The committees action is de-
signed to partly Offset about $1.1
billion in excise tax cuts tenta-

Police Search for Clue
In Latest Drinks Theft
By ths AssoS,ossd Pres.

THoMPSoNv1LLE, Conn. May
lS.-Police and FBI agents sought
today to pick up the trail OF four
bandits who Slugged three Drinks
paymasters in a carpet factory
here and escaped with q $i6,loo
payroll. Clues were meager.
Police had q description Of the
men. given by the Drinks en-
ployes who were ambushed. dis
armed and truSSed up at S am.
yesterday in the payroom of Big
elow-Sanford Carpet Co. here.
But it lacked perhaps the most
important detail-the facial char
acteristics Of the gunmen. Three
of them wore civilian defense-type
gas masks. The fourth hid his
face behind a piece of white cloth.
A storekeeper reported he had
seen a sedan with Massachusetts
license plates cruising near the
factory shortly before the rob-
berry. Another witness said he
saw a Car speed past the factory
in the direction of East Hartford
or Springfield. Mass. soon after
the time of the holdup. That was
about all the investigators knew.
Meanwhile. J. D. Allen of Chi
cago, president of Drinks. Inc,
posted a $4,000 reward for the
capture of the bandits.
The armored car service lost
$l,700.000 to gunmen who raided
its Boston Office last January II
in one of the Nations biggest rob-
berries. Twenty-four hours before
the robbery here bandits seized a
$4,000 payroll which had been
delivered by a Drinks truck to
Cleveland (Ohio) brewery.
