SECTION 1032 OF THE INTERNAL
REVENUE CODE OF 1954
(Mr. MILLS asked and was given per-
mission to address the House for 10
minutes.)
Mr. MILLS. Mr. Speaker, early this
spring it came to my attention that the
tax services and commercial publications
were advertising as a loophole a section
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954
about which I had long had misgivings.
That section is section 1032 which pro-
vides as follows:
(a) Nonrecognition of Gain or Loss: No
gain or loss shall be recognized to a corpo-
ration on the receipt of money or other prop-
erty in exchange for stock (including treas-
ury stock) of such corporation.
(b) Basis: For basis of property acquired
by a corporation in certain exchanges for
its stock, see section 362.
The terms of this provision operate to
permit corporations who trade in their
own stock for a profit to escape taxation
on the gains derived from such activity.
The only offsetting liability imposed for
this generosity is the denial of any losses
incurred from such activity.
The issuance of stock by a corporation
has never been treated for tax purposes
as an event giving rise to the recognition
of taxable gain or deductible loss for the
sound reason that the proceeds of such
transactions produce capital and do not
give rise to income. However, until the
enactment of section 1032 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954 Treasury stock
had always been dealt with by Treasury
regulations interpreting .the general pro-
visions of the law defining gross income.
These regulations which, with minor
changes, date from May 2, 1934-Treas-
ury Decision 4430, XII-1 C. B. 36-pra-
vide as follows:
Section 39.22 (a)-15: Acquisition or dispo-
sition by a corporation of its own capital
stock. (a) Whether the acquisition or dis-
position by a corporation of shares of its own
capital stock gives rise to taxable gain or
deductible loss depends upon the real nature
of the transaction, which is to be ascer-
tained from all its facts and circumstances.
The receipt by a corporation of the subscrip-
tion price of shares of its capital stock upon
their original issuance gives rise to neither
taxable gain nor deductible loss, whether the
subscription or issue price be in excess of, or
less than, the par or stated value of such
stock.
(b) However, if a corporation deals in its
own shares as it might in the shares of an-
other corporation, the resulting gain or loss
is to be computed in the same manner as
though the corporation were dealing in the
shares of another. So also if the corporation
receives its own stock as consideration upon
the sale of property by it, or in satisfaction
of indebtedness to it, the gain or loss result-
ing is to be computed in the same manner as
though the payment had been made in any
other property. Any gain derived from such
transactions is subject to tax, and any loss
sustained is allowable as a deduction where
permitted by the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code.
The Tax Court has applied these regu-
lations uniformly, holding that a cor-
poration was not dealing in its shares
as it might the shares of another cor-
poration where motivated by a nonprofit
business purpose requiring the use of its
stock. The Circuit Courts of Appeal,
with equal uniformity, have refused to
follow the motive test laid down by the
Tax Court, holding, instead, that any
disposition of Treasury stock gives rise
to taxable gain or deductible loss except
in the case of a capital readjustment
actually involving retirement and reis-
suar)ce of shares.
The rule of the tax court applied the
regulation literally to determine whether
or not the corporation was trading in its
own shares as it might in the shares of
another for - profit. As so applied the
regulation turned on substance rather
than form, and application was premised
upon a search inquiring into the facts
and circumstances surrounding the
transaction in Treasury stock for pur-
pose of determining whether or not the
transaction was motivated by no more
than a desire for profit. The rule of the
circuit courts, on the other hand, turned
only upon whether or not the corpora-
tion went through the mechanics of act-
ually retiring its Treasury stock and is-
suing new stock. Finally, in Burrus
Mills, Incorporated (22 T. C. 881 (1954)) ,
the tax court, after remarking upon the
futility of its position, in the face of re-
peated reversals in circuit courts of ap-
peal reversed its position and adopted
that of the courts of appeal. The result-
ing uniformity was shortlived for on the
following day the Court of Claims decid-
ed the case of Anderson, Clayton & Com-
pany v. U. S. (122 F. Supp. 837 (1954) ),
holding that a sale of Treasury stock to
executives at a profit for the purpose of
keeping control in the active manage-
ment group did not result in taxable
gain. The Supreme Court of the United
States granted certiorari on February 7,
1955.- I am told that this and 11 other
cases, involving a total of $830,000, are
awaiting the decision of the Supreme
Court. -
The differences between authorized
but unissued stock and Treasury stock,
while usually unappreciated by those
outside the legal profession, are funda-
mental to an understanding of why
Treasury stock is so much in demand for
corporate business purposes. -
A corporation desiring to issue new
stock must comply with many laws and
regulations which exist for the protection
of stockholders which are not applicable
in the case of treasury stock. For ex-
ample, the disposition of treasury stock
lies completely within the discretion of
the board of directors who may dispose
of it without considering the wishes of
stockholders or considering stockholders'
preemptive rights. In addition, the di-
rectors may sell treasury stock for less
than its par or stated value. Treasury
'Stock is usually nonassessable and free
of many of the State and Federal se-
curity regulations applicable to unissued
stock and last, but not least, the Fed-
eral stamp tax imposed on the transfer
of such stock is less than that imposed
upon the issuance of stock. To these tra-
ditional incentives for a corporation ac-
quiring and dealing in its own stock, sec-
tion 1032 has made another and far more
profitable addition. The corporation
can now by law deal in its own shares and
enjoy its profits free of taxation.
These, and other considerations, are
not taken into account by those who
argue that there is no practical difference
between a purchase and resale of a cor-
poration's stock and the purchase and
retirement of stock followed by the is-
suance of new shares. The logic of
bookkeeping may, indeed, take no cogni-
zance of the differences, but this cannot
obscure the practical differences inherent
in the very nature of the two types of
stock.
The differences in tax treatment ac-
corded transactions involving newly is-
sued stock and Treasury stock by the
statutes and courts led corporations
holding both authorized but unissued
stock and Treasury stock to use the
Treasury stock only if the price they
had paid for it was less than its cost,
thus producing a tax loss. However, if
the price paid for the Treasury stock
was less than its current market price,
the authorized but unissued stock would
be used to accomplish their purpose, thus
avoiding the capital gain tax. In this
manner, corporate taxpayers were en-
abled to eat their cake and have it, too.
This coupled with the uncertainty pro-
duced by the conflict between the Tax
Court and the courts of appeal described
above, gave rise to section 1032.
.When I drew the tax avoidance possi-
bilities of section 1032 to the attention
of the Secretary of the Treasury, he
replied, under date of June 6, 1955, deny-
ing the existence of the loophole in the
following language: ,
The Treasury staff has reveiwed again sec-

of the joint Treasury and Congressional Start
Committee in 1953 which studied this point
of the tax law.
Corporations typically buy and use their
own stock only for limited purposes. In con-
nection with mergers. or stock option and
bonus plans. These transactions can be
and often are handled by newly issued stock
and are then clearly capital transactions.
The fact that they may buy their own stock
and use it instead of new stock does not
change the real character 01 the transac-
tions.
The Securities and Exchange Commission
holds that any gain or loss. arising from
dealings In Treasury stock affects the capi-
tal account and should not be reported In
income or in earned surplus. Thus the old
tax rule was directly contrary to what was
required for reports to stockholders and the
public.
There are relatively few instances where
corporations deal In their own stock for
profit and loss. If officers arrange for a
corporation to buy up its own stock because
of inside information. both the corporation
and its officers are liable to the same sort
of penalties under the Securities and Ex-
change Act as the officers would be if they
traded in the stock for their own sicc0Unt.
We shall continue to watch the operation
of this and all other provisions of the tax
law. If any abuses arise we shall promptly
report them to the Congress.
corporations required to register, only
376 companies subject to the Public
Utilities Holding Company Act of 1935
and 354 companies subject to the Invest-
ment Company Act of 1940 are subject
to restrictions imposed by the Securities
and Exchange Commission regarding the
volved, instead of selling Treasury stock anti acquisition and sale of the companies'

in any taxable gain. Thus the old law really

portunity to handle transactions to Ute tax- ,the SEC's statement is directly contrary
Although I have a high regard for the
Secretary, as a member of the tax-
writing Ways and Means Committee. I
feel qualified through actual experience
to recognize the inaccuracies of the Sec-
retary's opinions with respect to the
existence of a loophole and I was under
the impression that his statements re-
garding the operation of the laws ad-
ministered by the Securities and Ex-
change Commission were incorrect. To
verify my impression I wrote to the Se-
curities and Exchange Commission on
June 7, 1955, asking if there was any law
or regulation imposing a penalty on a
corporation buying and selling its own
stock similar to the penalty imposed
upon the officers or directors of corpora-
tions who indulge in inside dealings. On
this point the Securities and Exchange
Commission replied as follows:
There is no law or regulation which im-
poses upon a corporation that buys and sells
its own stock the penalty that is imposed
upon officers and directors who trade in such
stock. such as provided by section 16 (bl of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In this
connection rule X-16A-4 (b) exempts from
the provisions of section 16 (b) securities re-
acquired by an issuer for its account during
the time they are held by the issuer. Clearly.
the issuer could not recover trading profits
from itself.
The Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion also supplied me with the informa-
tion that of hundreds of thousands of
aa?e similarly subject to criticism because
tl ey are not directed to the subject at
h d. For example, it is true that the
S unities and Exchange Commission
ho1 s that gain or loss arising from deal-
ingsn Treasury stock aficcLs the capital
accou{It of a corporation and should not
be tre ted as income or earned surplus.
However. this ruling is premised upon the
rectuireil fonts not of taxation but busi-
the operating income of a
but the logic of taxation
was. until section 1032. and should now
be. equally al amant in requiring such
profits to be a cluded in income for the
purpose of detel'tnining the corporation's
income tax. T se profits should also
be included in earnings and profits of the
corporation for pu;?. oses of determining
the amount of divi&ends to be taxed to
the corporation's shkreholders. Surely,
the Secretary of the 'reasurv could not
believe that earned sup pus for purposes
of bookkeeping is equivent to earnings
and profits, or that the c~onsiderations
c overning taxation are aliyays identical
to dealings in Treasury stock generally
imposed by the tax laws. This pro-
vided a source of information as to the
number of corporations dealing in their
own stock and as to the number and
value of the shares involved. This re-
quirement, together with tie fact that
corporations were required to pay taxes
on any gain derived from dealing in their
own shares, acted as a b:'ake on the
number of companies indulging in such
activity.
Putting the best face possible upon
section 1032, it is a poor substitute for
the Treasury regulations which its au-
thors intended it to replace. The pro-
vision is not as broad as the regulations.
It mentions neither the tax consequences
to a corporation on acquisition of its
own capital stock nor the consequences
to the corporation when such stock is
exchange for services rather than
money or property. If the objectives of
the section had any justification at all,
that justification lies only in the fact
that a corporation should be entitled to
reward the services of its employees
through incentive plans involving the
corporation's stock.
't'he tax laws have long been designed
to encourage such incentive programs.
However, section 1032 fails to include
services as one of the considerations for
which a corporation can gain its benefits.
Yet a loophole is wide open in it for
transactions involving money or prop-
erty.
I believe that it is possible to deal with
the problems proposed by the old Treas-
ury regulations without granting the
carte blanche of untaxed p?ofits award-
ed by section 1032. For that reason, I
renew my request to the Secretary of the
Treasury fqt'' a review of section 1032,
for a rev tv of the workings of section
chapjfr 1 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 54, and urge him to make recom-
and fiscal principles which should gov-
ern our tax laws.
SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING
JUNE 30, 1956
Mr. CANNON submitted the following
conference report and statement:
CONY -ERENCE REPORT (H. REpr. No. 1586)
The committee of conference on the dis-
agreeing votes of the two Houses on the
amendments of the Senate to the bill (H. R.
7278) "making supplemental appropriations
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1956, and
for other purposes," having met, after full
and free conference, have agreed to recom-
mend and do recommend to their respective
Houses as follows:
That the Senate recede from Its amend-
ments numbered 13, 46, 57, 65 66, 6'7, 68, 69,
70. 71, 72, 73, 74, 87, 96, 99, 101, 110, 111, 112,
118. 119. 121, and 136.
That the House recede from its disagree-
ment to the amendments of the Senate num-
bered 1. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9, 10, 11, 15, 17, 18, 26,
32, 36, 42, 44. 47, 51. 55, 60. 77, 90. 94, 97, 102,
106, 108, 113, 114. 120, 124, 125, 126, 129, 132,
133. 134, 135, 137, 139, 140, and 141 and agree
to the same.
Amendment numbered 12: That the House
recede from its disagreement '.o the amend-
re the
tion 1032 law are yet to be processed
before assessments can be made. If only
those companies listed on the New York
Stoct: Exchange are taken into account.
the amount of Treasury stock held is
tremendous and the volume of trading
in such shares is more than substantial.
It is my belief that the enactment of
section 1032 has served to increase the
volume of trade in Treasury stock, and
such trade will, continue to increase in
volume now that such transactions are
no longer' subject to the capital gains
tax. Section 1032 is more than a loop-
hole. It is an open sesame to specula-
tion by a corporation in its own stock-
an invitation to reap untaxed profits.
The law existing prior to the enact-
ment of section 1032 had its imperfec-
tions and uncertainties. This, I do not
deny. But section 1032 is worse as a
cure than the disease. Under the old
law, corporations were not freed from
the reporting requirement stitli respect

tain new and expanded programs be enacted

for "Salaries and expenses, White House
Conference on Education" instead of $50,000
as proposed by the House and $238,000 as
proposed by the Senate, however, the man-
agers on the part of the House reiterate the
thought set forth in House Report No. 1116,
that the legislation which authorized the
White House Conference on Hducation does
not authorize the use of Federal funds for
the travel expenses of delegates to the Con-
CONGRESSIONAL RECORD - HOUSE 10463
ference,.and will expect that the Department
secure an opinion on this matter from the
Comptroller General before obligating any
funds for such purpose. If his opinion is
that the use of funds for such purpose is not
so authorized, it will be expected that the
Director of the Bureau of the Budget will
impound $170,000 of the appropriation for
this item.
Amendment No. 101: Strikes appropria-
tions for 19 Public Health Service items

ment for technical reasons. A motion will
be made to recede from disagreement to the
Senate amendment that proposed an appro-
priation of $60,000,000 for "Grants to States
for poliomyelitis vaccination" and concur
therein with an amendment to substitute
the sum of $30,000,000. The managers are
agreed that, if legislation is enacted which
will require more than $30,000,000 in fiscal
year 1956, the Director of the Bureau of the
Budget should apportion these funds on a
deficiency basis.
Amendment No. 105: Appropriates $600,000
for "Construction of housing facilities for
animals" instead of $400,000 as proposed by
the House and $685,280 as proposed by the
Senate. The language of this paragraph is
sufficiently broad to permit the Public Health
Service to handle the construction direct or
to arrange for contracts through the General
Services Administration. The managers will
expect the method to be employed which will
assure the earliest completion of the build-
ing.
