Washington. Nov. 12.—A new drive
by the government on tax chiselers | Nov?
will trap more of them and drag j "
more money into the Treasury than |
ever before, officials of the Internal
Revenue predicted today.
They have 25,000 sleuths, of whom
10,000 are recent additions, tracking
down tax dodgers now. They have
also only recently wound up one of the
biggest conference of district col- j
lectors on record to get the drive
launched.
Last year, Internal Revenue did
pretty well to take in $1,275,000,000
it would not have had otherwise and
this year, before the end of June, the
experts say they will take at least
$1,500,000,0^0, probably more.
There was'the woman who left her
purse on a street car when she was
carrying $27,000 in it. She is still
trying to explain to the Treasury peo-
ple how she had that much money
when the family income return for
the previous years showed only $3,-
000 income a year.
Few individuals, such as . farmers,
wage earners and salaried people, get
into trouble over taxes, not because
they are not watched, but because
they do not try to get away with
things much. Seems like it is when
folks get into business or a profession
that they start chiselling. They resort
■ to such things as “forgetting” fees,
padding, the books or keeping two
sets of books. The sleuths know the
answers, even though it takes sev-
eral years to catch on to some. That
just makes it more expensive for the
evader.
One financial wizard thought he
was getting away wtih a fine thing
by using 250 different banks and
other institutions for his accounts—•
until he was caught.
One thing the Treasury likes to do
is jump on an entire industry in one
section of the country, with or with-
prior reason for doing so. They hap-
pened to notice most of ' the turkey
raisers in Texas were showing no
profits in the lush war years, so in-
vestigated and found widespread chis-
elling.
Frequently it is not only taxes
which justice turns up. On a tax hunt
in New York, the experts 1 ound? a su-
gar black market and not only brought
back the unpaid taxes, but the case
wound up with the conviction-of the
dodgers for diverting 25 million
1 pounds of sugar.
During the raisin shortage, they
investigated the entire industry.
i found it selling raisins way above
ceiling prices and cleared up both the
extra taxes and the overcharging at
the same time. The attempt to gyp
was unproiftable’for both the sugar
and the raisin people, plus many
another industry or group doing the
same thing.
In New England recently, one of
the sleuths needed photostats for a.
case on which he was working and
hired a private firm to make them.
The bill was unusually high so in a
routine check on the bill, he found
the firm w-as gypping on taxes—so
nailed it.
One fairly big businessman cover-
ed his income by making out checks
to employees, which would show in
his books as expenses. But he made
the employees turn them right back
and pocketed the money. He was |
