Vigorous protests were registered

ing to bankers and brokers list Of
Washington residents paying personal
and intangible taxes. Including the
amount OF such property upon which
tax was paid.
One of Washington's most promi-
nent, bankers, In discussing this mat
ter today, declared that the exposure
for business purposes OF the District
records. which should be kept secret,
was a gross outrage" and that the
District mmissioners should pro-
hibit such use OF tax returns filed by
Washington persons, in the same
manner that the income tax division
withholds from public use or consul
tation income tax returns.
The list contains the names of all
persons in the District who paid per-
sonal and intangible tax and the
amounts upon which such taxes were
paid. The circulation Of the list, 1t
was said, is limited to fifty, and IL is
being sold at $40 a copy.
1t was pointed out that while the
list might prove valuable to a local
financial institution, it's efficacy prac-
tically would be nullified by the fact
that the same list was IN the posses
sion OF a number OF other competing
institutions.
