  Truman Library - John W. Snyder Oral History Interview, July 2, 1969
A tax revision bill, House Bill 8920, was passed by the House on June 29, 1950, but developments in Korea led to substantial changes in the bill and the Revenue Act of 1950 was not approved, finally, until September the 23rd 1950, which was in fiscal year 1951.
This revenue bill was not quite up to what it should have been, but it at least made a step towards meeting the Korean expenditures that were, of course, at that time, completely unpredictable.
The two major revenue acts that were enacted that year were the Revenue Act of 1950 and the Excess Profits Tax Act of 1950.

 Truman Library - John W. Snyder Oral History Interview, August 25, 1969
The Revenue Act of 1950 was the first general stabilization measure to be adopted and put into effect after the beginning of the Korean war.
In 1950 revenue legislation was facilitated by the fact that the tax structure, which had been developed during the preceding years, permitted the increased rates to become effective almost immediately by virtue of the current payment system and the system of withholding income taxes as salary and wage income is received.
of 1950 proposed a tax of 30 percent on corporation profits in excess of 85 percent of the average three highest base period years 1946 to 1949 to be effective for a period of three years, July 1950 to June 30, 1953.

 Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956: Creating the Interstate System
Acting on a suggestion by Secretary of Treasury George Humphrey, Rep. Boggs included a provision that credited a revenue from highway user taxes to a Highway Trust Fund to be used for the highway program.
The act prohibited the secretary from apportioning funds to any state permitting excessively large vehicles - those greater in size or weight than the limits specified in the latest AASHO policy or those legally permitted in a state on July 1, 1956, whichever were greater - to use the interstate highways.
The 1956 act also resolved one of the most controversial issues by applying the Davis-Bacon Act to interstate construction projects, despite concerns that the cost of the projects would be increased.

 Internal Revenue Manual - 7.27.4 Taxation of Unrelated Business Income
Prior to enactment in the Revenue Act of 1950 of what are now IRC 511 through 515, the Service made numerous attempts to deny exemption to organizations which engaged in transparently profit-making activities on the ground that these organizations were not organized and operated exclusively for their stated exempt purpose.
The Tax Reform Act extended this tax to virtually all tax-exempt organizations in order to end, according to the Report of the Committee on Ways and Means, the inequity in taxing certain exempt organizations and not taxing others equally apt to engage in unrelated business.
However, the Revenue Act of 1951 remedied this omission and subjected these schools to the same treatment with respect to unrelated business income as applied to other colleges and universities which are exempt under IRC 501(c)(3).

To head this office, the act establishes the position of Controller, an individual who is to possess "demonstrated ability and practical experience in accounting, financial management, and financial systems." This individual will handle day-to-day operations to ensure that financial operations are being properly carried out governmentwide.
To correct this situation, the CFO Act mandates that agency CFOs are to develop and maintain agency financial management systems that comply with applicable accounting principles, standards, and requirements; internal control standards; and requirements of OMB, the Department of the Treasury, and others.
As specified in the act, the CFO Council's functions are to advise agencies and coordinate their activities on financial management matters, such as (1) consolidating and modernizing financial systems, (2) improving the quality of financial data and information standards, (3) strengthening internal controls, and (4) developing legislation affecting financial operations and organizations.

The jurisdiction of this Court is invoked under 28 U.S.C. Sections 511 and 512 of the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.) are set forth in pertinent part in a statutory appendix (App., infra, 1a-3a).
Petitioner is a corporation exempt from income tax as a "social club" under Section 501(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code, /1/ which grants tax-exempt status to "(c)lubs organized for pleasure, recreation, and other nonprofitable purposes" that meet certain other requirements.
The statute continues to use the term "unrelated business taxable income" to describe the taxable income of social clubs simply because that was the term historically used with respect to other tax-exempt organizations to identify the base on which the unrelated business income tax was imposed.

The following acts are of major consequence: establishment of the concept of federal income tax exemption in 1913; enactment of the charitable contribution deductions in 1917, 1921, and 1932; enactment of the unrelated business rules in 1950; and enactment of the public charity and private foundation definitions and rules in 1969.
In the Revenue Act of 1918, the enumeration of tax-exempt charitable organizations was expanded to include those organized “for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals.”[7] The Revenue Act of 1921 further expanded the statute to exempt “any community chest, fund or foundation” and added “literary” groups to the list of exempt entities.
The Revenue Act of 1987 brought taxes on public charities for engaging in excessive lobbying and political campaign activities, as well as fundraising disclosure requirements for noncharitable organizations.

 Comments on Budget Proposal to Tax the Investment Income of Section 501(c)(6) Organizations
Where the revenues to fund those activities derive from is not the key issue.
Without alternative forms of revenues, membership organizations may be forced to raise their dues — an action that would generate a currently deductible business expense and certainly vitiate any revenue-raising purpose behind the proposal.
Finally, members of organizations exempt under other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code — associations the Administration does not propose to subject to the tax on investment income — may enjoy comparable tax benefit for their dues or other payments to the association.

 Andrews Kurth - "Unrelated Business Taxable Income from Rental of Real Estate: Parking   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The legislative history of the Revenue Act of 1950 and the Tax Reform Act of 1969 distinguish between the rental of real property and the operation of unrelated trades or businesses, such as parking lots.
The Internal Revenue Service ("Service") has considered in general counsel memoranda, private rulings and technical advice memoranda the treatment of parking in connection with the activities of and investments by exempt organization.
The 1950 committee reports' reference to rents as traditional and proper passive income presumably uses quotation marks around the word "passive," to clarify that "passive income" describes a traditional activity, not an active/passive test.

 Folio: The Magazine for Magazine Management: A publisher's guide to tax reform - part 2
The distinction between these kinds of expenditures proved difficult to make in practice, and the Congress, in the Revenue Act of 1950, finally decided to group all circulation expenditures together and permit them to be currently deducted.
As a result, at the end of the tax year the publisher could be forced to pay taxes on the total revenue allocated to a November or December shipment--and wouldn't be entitled to reduce the tax liability until a year later.
The proposal has been discussed in the Treasury Department for some time and was rooted in the tax principle of amortizing or capitalizing those expenditures that have a residual affect and that could be allocated to the development of good will or to the establishment of an intangible capital asset.

Among the reasons this policy was implemented was that the general public benefitted from the "encouragement of charity." As the law has developed since 1913, the number and types of organizations allowed exempt status have grown.
Prior to 1950, the conduct of commercial activities did not threaten the exempt status of these organizations so long as any profits generated from the commercial activity were used to further the organization's charitable or educational purposes.
By 1950, application of the "destination-offunds" test had led to considerable abuse, culminating in C.F Mueller v.

Beginning with the Revenue Act of 1950, Congress has imposed a tax on the UBTI of otherwise tax-exempt organizations.
As explained above, the theory for the exclusion of this income from taxation was that such investment activities did not pose the same risk of improper competition and, further, that such items of income were properly exempt as the traditional investment income of such entities.
Under the 1969 Act, income earned by a tax-exempt entity from debtfinanced property generally was includible in UBTI, provided that the income was derived from an activity that was unrelated to the exempt function of the organization.
