COURT RULES TAX
LISTS NOT PRIVATE
U. S. Judge Denies Writ That
Would Back Cleveland Collector
in Refusal to Reveal Figures.

Cleveland.-An application for an
injunction TO restrain C. F. Routzahn.
Internal Revenue Collector. from max
ing public the income tax records for
the Cleveland district was denied by
Federal Judge D. C. Westenhayer.
The application has been filed by At
torney J. W. Reavis.
'The plaintiff has neither property
rights nor personal rights in his in
come tax returns" the judge said.
There is no right Of personal privacy
in these records, They are the prop
erty of the government. The injunc-
ton is denied"
The income tax records for the
Cleveland district will not be made
public. despite the court ruling. Col
lector Routzahn refused newspaper re-
porters permission to Sc the records
when they visited his office immsdi-
ateiy after the courts ruling.
II know the ruling has been handed
down. but can't help that" Routzahn
said. The records will not be opened
to public view. believe that If |
were to bare them my bond as Inter
nal Revenue Collector would be placed
in jeopardy"
Judge Westenhaver held against
Mr.. Reayis's motion because it was
based almost entirely on the argu-
ment that, If tax payments we're made
public. personal privacy would be in
yaded. No specific damage was
claimed.
