Allen confi- dently predicted yesterday the new | taxation program which would saddle | an income tax on the District with- | | out repealing the existing tax on in- | tangible personal property will resur= rect “buried” treasures to aid in bal- | ancing the wobbling municipal budget. Unknown owners of intangibles, to escape heavy taxes on incomes, Allen pointed out, probably will dig into bank vauits for the first time and bring to light for taxation purposes for the first time long hidden stocks, bonds and other intangibles. The new tax legislation approved by the special tax subcommittee of | the House District Committee will allow credit on income tax payments for payments on intangible property. This feature alone, Allen said, “leads | us to expect additional returns on | | intangible property.” Teeth Put in Legislation. ‘The subcommittee also has written | into the tax legislation a provision | designed to put “teeth” into the in- "annlhlr property law, which Alien has estimated will increase the rev- enue from this source at least $1,- 000,000 a year. Coupled with the credit allowance, the additional rev- enue is expected to go far beyond that | figure Without any bludgeoning. Allen said, intangible property owners gave him 41,903 accounts in the 1936 fiscal vear which produced $2,104,767 Final figures are not available for the | fast-ending current fiscal year, but Allen said the income from the in- | tangible tax would jump to $2.605.266 as a result of a check his office has | made on Federal income tax returns. | The largest single intangible as- sessment for the current fiscal year 00,000, which yielded a tax 0. The average taX, how- is $50.22. ever, May Reach New Sources. Ithough the credit allowance on income tax payments for intangible payments is expected to reduce the estimated $2.000,000 vield from in- comes, Allen as well as other District officials believe tax sources never be- fore reached will be tapped under the new program. Allen and Vernon West, principal | assistant corporation counsel, both explained there are scores of persons | in the District with large incomes who do not own any tangible property | Conversely, they sad, there are many persons who own only a few shares of | stocks and bonds and pay only a small intangible tax, who also will be caught under the income tax law. | Allen also pointed out that the | District, under the income tax law, | will be in a position to extract some revenue from owners of Government bonds and stocks of local concerns which are now tax exempt under the intangible law. since dividends on these stocks and bonds will be taxable | &s income. | Air Travel Mounting.
