AL SAYS "SOMEONE IS
G TO JAIL" IN TAX MESS

SIbNN ~ JFIL ItN ] M mCSS
Crimes in violation of tax laws
will be taken up by a special grand
jury. Judge Owens said in today's
session that he will confer with the
chief justice and the states attorney
on getting special body to go at the
job of finding the criminals response
BILE for the fixing and the lodging of
taxes among $4,000 property owners.
The jury will be On the job several
months. Henry Berger, assistant
states attorney, made the comment:
Somebody's going to Jail before this
is over"
The action of Judge Owens came
after taxdodgers had been on the
stand and told stories of politicians
who did their tax-fxing.
Paul H. Wiedel, assistant chief
clerk of the assessors office, made
the amazing statement that the
deputy assessors are only "messen-
gers" These deputy assessors, bet
ter known as field men, go out with
books and look into all the houses in
Chicago. They write down in their
books how much they think the prop
erty of each household, office, fac
tory or store is worth. Widel testi-
fed:
Members of the Board of Assess
ors never see these field books. Or
rather, it is very seldom they see
these books. 1t has been the abso-
lutte rule with us for years to accept
any schedule sworn to by a prop
erty owner.
"The field men, you might say, are
messengers to deliver blank schedules
to property owners and to bring back
filled schedules to our office. The
field men are not supposed to know
values. And wouldn't place much
credence in their estimate of values"
