D. {. Employees Face
Job Penalties for
Avoiding Tax Debts

District employees who deliber-
ately avoid payment of their
debts to the District or Federal
Government may be disciplined or
even dismissed, the Commissions
ers decided today.
While their order said they do
not believe the District Govern
ment should act as a collection
agency" the city heads directed
department officials to inform
their workers they are not con-
sidered satisfactory employees II
they avoid their Government
debts wilfully and without suffi-
cient excuse.
The order followed a meeting
Of District officials yesterday in
the office of Assessor Edward A.
Dent on the subject of employees
debts, particularly Federal income
taxes.
The Bureau Of Internal Rev.
enue for some time has been seek
ing the help of the commissioners
in collecting back income taxes
from District employees.
In July. the Commissioners de-
cided against issuing such an
order as the one adopted today.
At that time they decided to
adhere to a policy of 1914, under
which claims Of Indebtedness were
referred to department head hav.
ing jurisdiction over the employe.
for action they considered appro.
pirate. The department heads
may not dismiss the employees.
