BILLION IN TAXES
DUE BUT NOT PAID
Cannot BE Collected Because Gov
ernment is Unable to Audit
The Returns.

WASHINGTON. Dec. "a. 49, The
Treasury Department estimates that
more than a billion dollars" is out
standing in unpaid taxes because Of
the Governments inability to audit
the returns, DR., Thomas S, Adams OF
the Treasury staff testified to-day at a
hearing on taxation before the House
Ways and Means Committee.
Because OF the complex nature Of
present revenue laws, DR.. Adams
added, the Internal Revenue Bureau
has been unable TO complete the
checking up OF tax returns for 1917
The task OF auditing the tax returns
and Of tracing evasion and other
causes OF failure to pay all taxes due,
DR.. Adams said, has become so stu
pendous that the Internal Revenue
Bureau sees no way out at pr sent.
He declared he would thank Goa II
the revenue machinery does not
break down in two years under the
burden Of any addition 20 its job Of

"These are countries with the most
powerful armament building facili-
ties outside the league" said Mr.
Fisher, "nnd disarmament can begin
only when 1t is universal"
Mr.. Fisher, in discussing the recon
