Meee ce 4 SENATE PASSES TAX AVOIDANCE MEASURE Bill to Plug Loopholes Gets Ap- proval After Short, Per- functory Debate Washington, Aug. 19—(@)—The senate Thursday the adminis- tration’s tax avoidance bill, designed to plug loopholes through which the government has lost about $100,000,- 000 revenue annually. Approved after a brief and almost perfunctory debate, the non-contro- versial measure was sent back to the house for consideration of minor senate amendments. Chairman Harrison (Dem., Miss.), of the senate finance committee told his colleagues the legislation would check the use of personal holding companies, foreign corporations, mul- tiple trusts, and incorporation of per- sonal talents to avoid income tax lia- bility. It was drafted at the president’s re- quest, after a joint congressional com- mitte had investigated scores of cor- porate devices used to escape taxa- ion, The bill was adopted without a rec- ord vote a few minutes after the sen- ate convened. Not a single provision was questioned. Registrar Enlarges On Governor’s Order C. E.

Declaring he finds that many per- sons do not have a clear understand- ing of the executive order which mod- ified regulations on motor vehicle reg- istration, Van Horne said the order permits registration of a car manu- factured prior to 1933 with payment. of the current fee where “financial inability” prevents paying accumu- lated penalties. Under the order, the motor vehicle registrar is authorized to use his dis- cretion and each case is considered on its merits, Van Horne explained. He said about 20 cases have been handled in this way.
