BEWARE OF INCOME
TAX EXPERTS


st. Louis, Feb. /, 1919.-Collector of
Internal Revenue Geo. II. Moorefi of
the First District of Missouri, has
been cautioned against the activities
of so-called income tax experts by
Internal Revenue Commissioner DAN
lei C. Roper.
at has come to the knowledge of
the Internal Revenue Department
through my Office and the Office of the
other collectors throughout the coun-
try, that former employees of the In
ternal Revenue Department, irrespec-
tive of their employment in the income,
tax division, graduates of mail order
business colleges and other schools,
were representing themselves to the
taxpayers as experts and seeking pat
ronage in making up tax returns and
prosecuting claims before the depart
ment on this basis" said Collector
Moore.
commissioner Roper has called my
attention to the fact that few can in
the first place qualify as experts, and
secondly, that former employees of
the department are barred by statute
from representing taxpayers in the
prosecution of any claims pending
while in the employment of the gov
eminent and for aperiod of two years
| after leaving, are barred from even
aiding in any manner in the prosecu-
ton of such claims.
"In this connection, it is the desire
of the department to emphasize the
fact that there is no firm or person, no
matter whom, that can secure any
special consideration of any claim, be-
yond the merits of the claim itself.
The man who comes before the de-
partment without any expert repre-
sentative at all, will have exactly the
same standing as one who brings a
whole corps of expert advisers
"This doesn't apply to responsible
agencies. The Government welcomes
the aid of all such. Banks, trust COM
panies and similar institutions have
always co-operated with the Govern
ment in income tax work and have
gone to the pains and expense to make
their information to the public for the
present year more accurate than ever.
No taxpayer will make a mistake by
consulting his banker about making
| his returns.
"The department has arranged to
! furnish taxpayers free advisory SER
vice as to what should go into their
income tax returns, what may be kept
out and what is allowable as deduc-
tions, whore the taxpayer is in doubt.
You have only to call at the Collect
or's office or write in your request
for information on any point on which
you may be in doubt. Trained depu-
ties will be sent out to Central towns
throughout the district as soon as
forms are ready to advise taxpayers
about their returns. 1t is the aim Of
the Government to bring its agencies
of helpfulness just as close to the peo-
pie as possible, it being recognized
fact that every citizen, man or wo-
man, is a partner or stakeholder in
the Government organization with a
direct interest in the administration of
its affairs"
