Records showing the personal holding concern of Andrew W. Mellon's daughter bought stock in a transaction upon which he claimed a loss of $383,537.50 in his 1931 income lax report were introduced today Jaefore the Tax Appeals Board. The evidence was taken from the books of the concern, known as the Ascalot Company and those of A. W.

Mellon, by. his confidential secretary, Howard M. Johnson. The Government charges Ascalot actually was controlled by Mellon and that he used it) and' other family- losing days of Paine sales always achieve a climax. Keen shoppers flock to snap up rare values.

The Internal. Revenue Bureau seeks $3,089,000 additional tax-es, while Mellon is bSKing a $139,000 rebate on the $647,000 he paid in 1931.

Johnson testified that Ascalot was organized in 1930, with Mrs Ailsa Mellon Bruce, depositing securities valued at 'about $7,000,000 and later adding approximately that much more. The funds were obtained from gifts made by her father, including at wedding present of 10,000 shares of Aluminum Company of America preferred stock Johnson showed. While- tracing sales and purchases of Ascalot, F. R. Shearer, expert Government accountant, who relieved Robert H.

Jackson as cross-examiner, asked about the purchase of 500 shares of Commercial National Bank and Trust Company of New York stock. Johnson, the witness, said Mrs Eruce borrowed $150,000 from her father on -Feb 16, 1931, to buy the stock. Shearer showed that the check had been made out to David K. E. Bruce, Ailsa's husband, who was at the time chairman of the Ascalot board of directors.

He also got from the books evidence that Mellon's account showed the money was loaned to Ascalot, but that Ascalot's books did not show record of the loan from Mellon until the next December. Apparently trying by inference to show Mellon actually was owner of the bank stock, Shearer brought out the loan had been made without any collateral or interest. As Secretary of the Treasury at the time, Mellon was prohibited under an interpretation of the law by the Solicitor General from engaging in trade or commerce, or owning bank stock. Group. ,4 Pes.
