LOOPHOLES IN FEDERAL TAX LAWS CLOSING WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (UP) Additional tightening of federal tax laws to close all loopholes through which payments are being avoided, especially by many wealthy citizens, was recommended today by a house ways and means subcommittee.

The proposed changes, including taxes on property transfers between members of a family for tax avoidance purposes, were estimated by the subcommittee as likely to increase federal revenue by 000 annually. Other Changes Urged The group in a partial report yesterday to the full committee urged other changes which would increase revenues by $237,000,000 a year. The proposals recommended today included: Prohibition of deduction of estate inheritance and gift taxes for income tax purposes. Prohibition of deductions for tax purposes by domestic corporations for dividends received from foreign corporations. Denial of losses in case of sale or property exchanges between members of a family for tax avoidance purposes.

Recommendation that corporation earnings or profits in the form of liquidating dividends be treated: as sale of stocks. The subcommittee said that "stock holders to escape surtaxes" use this means of tax avoidance. May Avoid Tax Recommendation that corporations be required to file information returns as to dividends in excess of $1000 paid to any individual. In proposing disallowance of losses due to property exchanges between members of a family, the committee said "many instances have been brought to light where transactions have taken place for the sole purpose of taking a loss for income tax purposes."

Bibbins, urges a wider acceptance of trade warrants by the merchants and citizens so that the present issue may be retired at the earliest possible date.

"I believe that some of our people have lost sight of the splendid work accomplished through the trade warrants when they were originally issued last spring," said Bibbins.
