Hear these stirring messages at the Assembly of God Church E WASHINGTON, July 7 VP) A house group today began an investigation of charges that "shrewd manipulators" in Wall street had worked out a "trick corporation plan" which would swindle taxpayers. Chairman ttoren (D-Okla.) of a house commerce subcommittee yesterday announced the inves tigation of activities which he termed "Swindle, Inc." In a house speech he said some Wall street bankers and corporations had found "legal loopholes" in holding company legislation which is offering them a "bonanza that dwarfs the swag of teapot dome." Chairman Lea (D-Calif.) told a reporter he had named Boren and Reps. Murphy (D-Pa.) and Reecc (R-Tcnn.) to make the in vestigations with a view to recommendations for tightening up the holding company act of 1835, under which private util ity companies function. Boren told the house that un less this is done "we will help lessly witness what undoubted ly will be the biggest . . . raid on the federal treasury ever dreamed up by mind of man."' Describing the "trick corpora tion plan," Boren said: "It's a simple scheme: Wall street bankers would convert the $18,000,000,000 private util ity industry to a form of tax free but fake public ownership by the formation of 'non-profit' corporations. These corpora tions then issue bonds against the revenue of the property. But the bankers in estimating an nual revenue to determine the amount of bonds that can be is sued include as revenue the amount of money formerly col lected from customers and paid to the federal government. ' The former tax revenue would not be passed to the public in re duced electric rates, but divert ed to their own pockets in the form of interest on these reve nue bonds. "This scheme already has worked in Omaha where the $32,000,000 Nebraska Power company has been sold to a fake "non-profit corporation' of four men from the swindle price of $45,000,000. It is believed to be the process of negotiation in Se attle, Portland and Spokane. It will sweep the country unless stopped. Louisville, Ky., and Cincinnati, Ohio, are listed on the bankers' books."
