Louis tax woes prompt talk of dipping into trust funds

Washington February 2 The Internal Revenue Service told Congress it may tap Joe Louis trust funds to recover delinquent taxes from the boxing champion. A lien of 113,352 was filed against Louis in Chicago and total liens for 1946 through 1951 reached 1,230,789. Officials noted Louis, an independent contractor, was not subject to withholding taxes on purses but suggested changing law to tax independent contractors at the source. Lawmakers weighed whether Louis intended to pay and debated the need for broader tax policy fixes. Separate items note a Senate nomination bid by S Walter Stauffer and an Interstate Commerce Commission finding on a wreck near Edgewood Md with injuries.
