Charges Evasion Os Gross Income Taxes INDIANA POUS (UPI) - An Indianapolis Democratic 1a wxnaker charged today that some Indiana manufacturers established out-of-state offices so they could avoid paying millions of dollars in state gross income taxes. Rep. Carroll M. Dennis said in a House speech that a “privilege tax" bill he introduced three weeks ago in the Indiana Legislature would add 44 million dollars to state revenue in a two-year period and plug up loopholes which he said permit manufacturers to evade payment of taxes on sales outside the state. Dennis said that coal producers and manufacturers set up offices in other states "to circumvent their responsibility to support Indiana government*' ;. . "Coal producers have evaded paying gross income taxes by establishing out-of-state offices from Which to originate billing,’’ he . said. “More and more manufacturers over the years have used ( out of state offices to circumvent their responsibility. My privilege tax would plug this loophole ” ' Dennis’ bill (H 8369 imposes the tax on sales made in inter- < state commerce. It would set ' aside the revenue strictly for ed : ucation purposes. The bill was assigned to one ■ committee and later recommitted to another. It has not been reported to the House floor. Dennis charged that the. money Indiana should receive is mostly going to the federal government in corporate taxes. He said if the money was paid in gross income taxes through his privilege levy, it could be deducted from income on which federal taxes are figured. —.

Capone Front Man Refuses To Testify WASHINGTON (UPD-Charles English, described as a “front” for remnants of Chicago’s Al Capone syndicate, refused today to say whether he used labor unions to force the sale of counterfeit phonograph records on juke box operators. English, told the Senate Rackets Committee his answers might “in* tend to criminate” him. Another witness, Carl J. Burkhardt, had just told the committee that his Cincinnati recordpressing firm made 121,000 discs: in about five weeks for a man; described by the committee as an English associate. Burkhardt refused to say whether the records were counterfeit. He answered some questions but pleaded possible self-incrimination and loss of memory to others. Chairman John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) warned him he may have crossed “over the borderline of being in contempt of Congress,” despite his Fifth Amendment plea. ■'~~ Committee Counsel Robert Kennedy brought out that Burkhardt had been involved in an obscene record case in 1950. Burkhardt’s atotmey accused Kennedy of "smearing.” English, owner of Lormar Distributing Co., refused to say whether the company joined with union officials “Joey” GLimco and Fred Thomas (Juke Box Smitty) Smith to force operator? to buy records at a 5-cent premium on i each.
