SERVICE MEN
APPEAL FOR HIGHER PAY
Employees Association Representa-
tives Here Seeking Hearing Before
Ways and Means Committee.

Representatives of the Internal Rev
enue Association of the United States
are in Washington seeking to have the
ways and means committee grant a
hearing on the Loft bill for a reorgani-
zation of the internal revenue service
and an increase in salaries. Daniel NJ.
Donegan, II. N O'keefe and L. ii.
Eainey. a committee from the customs
house, New York city. have. been con-
ferring with a number of representa-
tives in an effort to bring about hear
ing On the measure.
They have filed with the representa-
tives history of the internal revenue
service detailing the intricacies of the
work of that service. and saying that
the salaries have not been increased
since the service was organized in 1861.
They cite figures tending to show that
it cost the service only l per cent to
collect the greater part of the revenue
with which the government is run. The
service is technical and requires trained
men.

Salaries Now Paid.

Upon the passing of the first act of
Congress relating to internal revenue
matters in 1861 salaries of internal
revenue officers were practically fixed"
it is pointed out in the statement. Obi
vision deputies received as salaries
from 5000 to s1.400 a year, and even
though they had to travel through any
number of counties in a state, their ex-
penses had to be paid from their salary,
and it made no difference whether a
deputy lived in n large city where ex-
penses for living and upkeep were
greatest, his salary was no more than
$1.400 and in many cases far less. Of
flee deputies in a few cases received
$1,000 year, for instance. the cashier,
although a vast amount of responsible
ity was placed upon him. At that time
the largest offices in the country took
in much less than two million dollars a
year. whereas at the present time the
same offices collect practically thirty
million dollars year. Deputies and
clerks doing office duty received COM
paratively small salaries. and even at
the present time, with the great amount
of added work and responsibility, prac-
ticaIly no one receives more than $1,000
Duties Have Increased.
THE internal revenue service is
working under more diversified laws
