prepare their own. Taxpayers
with business-type returns or mizzle’’
with complicated problems
should seek professional tax
assistance.
“Our district director, R. L.
Phinney, believes that the “do-
it-yourself” approach makes
sense to the people of South
Texas, because for every hour
of ar. employee’s time spent in
preparing a tax return, he
could be getting back to our
government $75 in additional
revenue. This is the big reason
we take our agents off their
regular work only one day
each week. Wo think the peo-
ple of the Austin district would
prefer we spent that time see-
ing to it that everyone pays
his fair share,” Mr. Phinney
said. - -
elected are: vice president. Alfred
Frenzel; secretary. V. G. Frenxal;
