Internal Revenue Ask
Exemption From Cut
In lis Personnel
House Told Reduction
In Investigators Would
Cost u. S. Millions
By Joseph YOUNG

The Internal Revenue Bureau
has asked Congress to exempt it
from the Dirksen employment
ceiling amendment of the Fed
eral Pay Act, asserting that a
cut in investigative personnel
will cost the Government mil
lions of dollars, it was learned
, today.
A letter to Chairman Doughton
of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, written by Joseph D. Nunan,
commissioner of internal revenue,
declares that the reduction in force
provision of the pay act will neces-
state the dropping OF 500 to TOO
employees
Mr.. Nunan said that 10 per cent
decrease in investigative personnel
will cost the Government $780,
100000 in revenue while saving only
! SIC, 100000 in salaries. A 20 per cent
! decrease in investigating personnel
will cost the Government s360,0OO,-
900 in revenue while saving it only
/ $50. 100000 in salaries, Mr.. Nunan
said.
! The letter said present demands
on the bureaus investigative force
are "by far the heaviest demands
| in its history This was due to
| the increases in the number of re-
turns filed annually and in the
amounts of income reported as COM
pared with the prewar period An
other reason advanced for exemp-
ton was the numerous claims for
adjustments of prior returns under
the relief provisions and other re-
troac ctive provisions of the new rev.
enue laws.
Mr.. Nunan said the present
whisky shortage would lead to in
creased black market operations
with an increase in liquor and
! income tax frauds in that industry
unless an effective enforcement Or
! ganization is maintained to COM
bat 1t.
When the Dirksen amendment
was drawn UP House-Senate confer
ees considered exempting the bu-
reau but finally decided against it,
The reduction in force amendment
is intended to decrease Government
employment by 100000 in the next
year. 1t provides for gradual de-
crease of personnel in Federal
agencies on a quarterly basis. The
amendment became law when Presi-
dent Truman signed the IA per cent
increase to which it was attached.

public.
It's too early for even a tentative

Laboratory at Bethesda, Md.
For preliminary work on biologi-
cal tests, some animals will be flown
to Washington Immediately. Others

ton, and those succumbing to
atomic injuries will be autopsied

Might Be Good Profit
lin Late SDring Hogs

Evidence that the corn-hog ratio
viii improve considerably when the
new crop is harvested indicates to
G. w. Hammans, farm marketing
specialist, Ohio State University,
that Ohio farmers should seriously
consider possibilities of profits from
1947 spring pig litters farrowed on
pasture In April or May.
MIR. Hammans says U. S. farmers
already have reported intentions of
cutting fall farrowings l6 per cent
below the 1945 figures, and the Ohio
1916 fall pig crop is likely to be
down 10 per cent from last year.
The total 1916 pig crop will be about
z per cent smaller than that of 1945.
Marketing of hogs in September
has been affected by increased sales
of hogs during the period when
ceilings were off A lot of the hogs
sold then were below average mark
citing weights; the August average
weigh of hogs sold on seven mid
western markets was SO pounds be-
low the August, 1945, average.
Many hogs now left on farms
which ordinarily might have gone
to market this fall probably will be
fed to heavy weights and move to
market after January l, Mr.. Ham
mans does not believe Ohio farmers
now have much incentive to fin
ish hogs until new corn is available
to feed them.
The University marketing spec
ialist thinks of grade hogs might
fare better on present markets than
if held until November and Decem-
Der. The present $1625, Chicago
basis, ceiling applies to sows, boars,
and stays weighing over l40 pounds
the same as to the better grades of
market hogs.
