Way Opens to Ease Tax
On Du Points GMStock

Dy the Ways and Means Com
mittee would treat distribution
of GIN stock to Du Pont stock
holders as a return of capital.
A Du Pont stakeholder would
pay no income tax on his GIN
shares unless their value ex-
ceeded what he paid for his
Du Pont stock. If he later sold
the Du Pont stock he would
pay on a capital gains basis,
with the value of the GIN stock
offset against the purchase
price of the Du Pont shares.
Du Pont President Crawford
H. Greenewalt told the COM
mittee that the tax yield to
the Treasury ultimately. would
be about the Same-$330 mil
lion to $3.50 million-whether
the pending legislation is
adopted or a variety of means
allowed under present laws are
invoked to hold down tax
liability.
However, he said the ap-
proach allowed under the bill
would greatly minimize the
market impact and thus pro-
tect more than a million hold
ers of Du Pont and GIN stock

. The administration has given
a qualified go-ahead to legisla-
ton aimed at easing tax and
stock market impact of the
court-ordered disposal of So
billion in General Motors stock
by the Du Pont Co.
Representatives of the Treas
ury and Justice Departments
withheld any outright indorse-
ment of legislation pending be-
fore the House Ways and
Means Committee. But they
raised no serious objections to
it in testimony before the COM
mittee yesterday.
The Supreme Court has or
dered Du Pont to divest itself
of SO million shareS-about %
per cent-of GIN stock. Du
Points ownership of this stock
violates antitrust laws, the
court held. Du Pont was given
10 years to complete this di-
vesture and must submit by
September 5 a plan for doing
so.
Representatives of Du Pont
and General Motors have ar
gued that selling of such a huge
volume of stock would depress
the price of the stock of both
companies. In addition. they
claim unreasonable hardships
would be visited on Du Pont
stockholders if returns on such
a sale must be handled under
regular tax procedures.

AirIines Post
BigLOssin
1stHaIfof 81.
By the Associated Press

The major domestic airlines
have reported they lost more
money in the first six months
of 1861 than in any similar
period since 1947-the worst
year in airline financial his
tory.
The net loss of the IL trunk
airlines from January through
June was $13,856,OOO, the Air
Transport Association said.
In l947, the airlines lost a
record $l6,467 900 in the first
six months, and a record 12O
million for the entire year.
Involved in the latest Alta
report are American, Braniff,
Continental. Delta, Eastern,
National, Northeast, North
west, Trans World, United and
Western.
Last year these domestic
trunk airlines lost $5,339,0OO
in the first six months, but
recovered sufficiently to take
out a total profit of $1,188,O 900
for all of 1860.
Evidence of Depression
In 1859, by comparison, the
first-half net profit was almost
$50 million.
Stuart G. Upton, Alta presi-
dent, said the loss for the
first six months of 1861 was
clear evidence of the severity
of the depression our Nations
airlines are experiencing"
1t is significant that air traf-
fic in the period has been 1.9
per cent below the volume for
the first half of 1860, Mr..
Upton noted.
He said the decline was due
in part to the World War II
10 per cent tax on passenger
travel, which he termed "one
i of the major obstacles to a
much-needed increase in traf-
fic."
Ironically, the airlines had
record breaking operating rev.
enues of $979,O05,OO0 for the
first six months of 1861. The
previous high, a year earlier,
was 937,77O,000.
Expenses at New High
But they also reported a new
high in operating expenses this
year of 1915, 1888 900 compared
with $941,719,000 for the first
half of 1860.
In another report, the Fed
eral Aviation Agency said the
airlines carried more passen.
gers, cargo and mail than ever
last year, but made few flights
than in the preceding year.
The reason for the fewer
flights: The huge jets, with
their greater speed and load
capacity.
At the same time, the FAA
identified Chicago's Midway as
the Nations busiest airport
last year, as it was the year
before. Next in order in total
aircraft operations, were Ma
tional at Washington, Denver
Los Angeles, and at Miami, Fla.
which is a center of much light
plane flying.
