The 1850 law making Guam a

its two 220-horsepower engines

Mr.. Horton said he had es-

Housing Profits Face
Major Tax Hearing
BY the Asseeioted Press

The U. S. Tax Court has con-
solidated for early hearing II
test cases which could, in the
event of Government victory,
result in the filing Of tax claims
for several hundred million dol
lars against housing project de-
veloperS.
The test cases have been or
dered to trial in one proceeding
at New York City. starting
March l.
In each instance. the principal
dispute is over whether the
profits from housing projects are
ordinary income" taking the
full income tax rates, or long
term capital gains. of which only
so per cent is taxable at a 26 per
cent rate. Long-term gains in
volve assets held six months or
more.
The Internal Revenue Service.
which contends the income is
ordinary income" has filed
claims against George M. Gross
of Sands Point, Long Island. and
associates for more than So mil
lion in additional taxes in con-
nection with the vast Glen Oaks
Village Developments and similar
projects on Long Island.
The claims are for 1948 and
1949
The Gross group took appeals
to the tax court, contending
their treatment of the income as
long term capital gain was the
correct one.
Internal Revenue officials say
that no exact list has been COM
piled, but that If the Service
wins its point some hundreds
of millions of dollars" might be-
come collectable elsewhere on
the same issue.
