LOOSENESS Of
WORK IS SHOWN
INTERNAL REVENUE BUREAU is
LOOKED INTO BY SPECIAL
COMMITTEE
Couzens Committee Finds No Dis
honesty But Errors Due to
Lack OF An Approved
System

Washington Chairman Couzens
Of the special senate committee in
vestigating the internal revenue bu-
reau declared in statement tina. the
committee had found much loose
ness in the execution of the work"
Of the bureau, resulting in the ap-
parent loss Of millions of dollars of
revenue to the government"
an some of these cases." the
chairman declared, "the department
officials have admitted errors, and
while the committee charges no dis
honesty, it finds much looseness in
the execution of the work"
Noting that review had been or
dered of one case, involving an al
legged overallowance of 100000 IN
taxes to one company. Senator Cou-
Gems said special Investigators we're
now working on other cases which
will be taken up this week by the
committee. He invited the public
to send suggestions for simplifying
the procedure of the bureau as we'll |
as the statutes.
"This lack of uniformity" Sena-
tor Couzens declared, worked great
injustice to some taxpayers and ex-
cessiye reductions in taxes to others.
The injustice arose, not because the
evidence showed that many taxpayers
paid taxes they should not pay, but
rather the taxpayers were relieved
who should not have been relieved.
For example, large concern on
he Pacific was allowed a claim by
he United States shipping board in
'olying 100000 and the same claim
vas allowed by the internal revenue
ureau, thus losing to the government
ONE 100000 in taxes. 1t developed
clear case of lack of proper work
ng arrangements between the two
apartments, the responsibility for
hieh was upon the internal revenue
lreau.
THE committee has been assured Z
iat an effort will be made to collect )
is 100000, and II II is collected. as ,
9 committee believes It should be, '
lily ten times the cost of the COM II
ittee's work will have been collected Il
one case. q
The committee found other cases
iere claims were allowed for amor
alton on plants and equipment pur-
ased before our country entered the dl
'rld war. and yet 1t was clearly &C
'vided by statute that only amorti- re
Ion was to be allowed on war III
nts and war equipment which were
released after we entered the war.
The committee also found that tax "a
fers received advantages over other b.
payers because OF the methods ha

 Here comes man walking down the path!" Mrs. Mingle said. Let us ask him about the castle"
 When the man came up to them, Raggedy. Ann asked, "Who lives in that castle dn the hill?"
 Hmm" the man unused as he looked at the Raggedys and the Thingum and the Zumzee and Mrs. Mingle and Mir. Munge. If you do not wish to be captured by the Genii who lives in the castle, you had better turn around and run home as fast as you can go! The Genii captures everyone who comes this way almost!"
 Then if he captures everyone, how is it that he hasn't captured you?" Raggedy Ann asked.
 "Ha." the man laughed. The Genii knows better than to try to cap- ture me! l am going to be a police man next week and 1 would arrest him sure pop"
 Dear mel" the Zumzee and the Thingum cried. If we can't go any farther, how can we ever expect to find our Mama?"
 "I'll bet a nickel the Genii has your Mama locked up in the castle!" the man said.
 Then we shall go right up there and rescue her!" Raggedy Ann said. That's what we will do!''
 My goodness! The Genii will lock all of you up, then no one will be res- cued." the man said. You'd better run back home real quick"
 But the Raggedys were not afraid, neither were Mrs. Mingle and Mir. Mungle, the Thingum and the Zum- zee. They walked right up the hill and knocked with sticks upon the door of the castle.
 What do you want" the voice of the Genii cried. Don't you know that I capture everyone who comes this way"
 You just come out here a minute, MT. Genii." Raggedy Ann said.
 When the Genii came out, he tried to grab Raggcdy Ann. but RaggedyI Andy gave him thump upon his wrist with a stick. "Wowi" the Genii howled as he tried to grab Raggedy Andy. But Mrs. Mingle gave the Genii another hard crack with her stick. Then Mr. Mungle whacked the Genli upon the head and the other thumped him upon the legs md back. "oh! ouch." the Genii cried. "Please do not thump me again and l will not capture you."

 Mother made me promise at ths last, after l had shown her the let. ter which Alice wrote, that I would not tell dad, as had threatened.
 Tt is bad enough" she said, "for John to know what Alice has done.'
 He may never know" I an- swered bitterly. He hasn't answered your telegram, mother. I am not sure whether he will come or not. I've grown so sick and disgusted over that string of pearls that If 1t were not for giving them to Alice and letting her triumph over he, would Eend them all back to her and be glad to get rid of them"
 That's it, daughter. We make greater sacrifices always to our pride than we do to our love. The easiest way in the world to settle this whole thing would be for you to send those pearls back" as John wishes.
 But I'm not going to do it," I interrupted. T do not see why l should be the one to make a sacrifice in this case to love while Jack pays votive offerings to his pride. Be- side, mother, Jack has no reason for not believing and if necessary forgiv- ing me almost anything"
 could have bitten my tongue out the moment I said this. Mother looked up in surprise, but she asked no questions. 1 was not sure, how ever, it was because she had no curi- osity on the subject, or because the maid handed her a telegram.
