Committee on Public Affairs. Pub
lie accountants, as business advis-

in the handling of tax matters. The
Recommendations contained in the
Letter Bulletin, will, they hope
through their nation wide circula-
ton, be effective in bringing about
simplifcation of procedure which
will be of great value to business
men.
The Institute takes to itself cred
it for being the first to advocate
the creation of a. Board of Tax
Appeals. In this Letter Bulletin it
heartily endorses the work of that
board, recommends an extension of
its jurisdiction. and takes stand
against its conversion into court
on the ground that no additional
court is needed, and that relative
ly simple procedure, quickly avail
able to the aggrieved taxpayer,
should be retained.
