TAX URGED ON I CHURCH REALTY EARNING INCOME Recommendation Made by McNutt Study Group at First Meeting. Revenue-producing realty owned by fraternal, religlou*. and similar j organizations would be made taxable under recommendation* made j yesterday at the first meeting of | Go v . Paul V. McNutt * special com- i mlttee to study Income tax lawoperation. The suggestion was laid before the j committee by Albert F Walsman, Philip Zoercher and Gaylord 6. Morton. State Tax Commissioners, during a meeting at which L. F. Shuttleworth, Associated Retailers secretary, urged substitution of a 3 per cent sales tax for the present gross income tax The Tax Board members told the committee the character and use of property now exempt from taxation should be used as a governing factor as to whether the realty should be tax-exempt. The investigating committee will meet again next Thursday.

Groas Tax Attacked Attack on the gross income tax law was led by Mr. Shuttleworth. who said that a 3 per cent sales tax would yield 33.4 per cent more revenue than the present levy of 1 per cent upon all incomes of more than SI,OOO a year. Food, ice. fuel and gasoline would be exempt from taxation, Mr. Shuttleworth proposed. The first three are necessities, he said, and the fourth already is taxed. Michigan and Kentucky now have such a sales tax. the committee was told, and Ohio recently adopted one. Similar proposals will be laid before the Illinois legislature, Mr. Shuttleworth declared. Former Representative Wilfred Jessup. Richmond, voiced opposition to the sale* tax proposal and suggested foods had been exempted from the tax proposal as a "sop to the legislature.” Arnett Named Chairman The suggestion was denied by Mr. Bhuttleworth, who said the exemptions corresponded to the SIOOO exemption in the gross income tax law. William H Arnett, Indiana State Chamber of Commerce secretary, was named group chairman and Leo Gardner, Indianapolis attorney representing the Indiana Bankers’ Assn . was elected secretary. The first recommendation received was a proposal to amend the store license tax by fixing a license fee for all types of itinerant merchants who are not now taxed under the act. JUNIOR C. OF C.
