The sons were caught making and filing fraudunlent income fax returns. This was their svetem: Although the stock of the millionaire wax owned by his entire family, the twa sons formed a parinership as an en- tity separate and distinct from the corporation. They diverted part of the corporation’s Income to them- selves individually by shipments of merchandise to the partnership which were not charged upon the corpora- tion records. The proceeds of the sales were not shown either in the income tax returns or the corpora- tion & hooks. The sons also manipu- lated the opening and closing inven- tories to show less than true income. They omitted profits derived from an independent venture by the employ- ment of corporation capital. lLarge amounts of insurance paid to the corporation for alleged loss of mer- chandise were kept out of the com- pany's records and diverted inta the pockets of the two sons. The ax- gregate sum which the Government forced the twa sons to pay in hack taxex and penaliies covering lengthy peried ran well into five fig- ures.
