SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1924 ~ "PUBLICITY 1S BEING GIVEN TAX RETURNS Many New York Newspapers Publish Returns in Spite of Warning Given GET NO FINAL WORD New York, Oct. 25--New York newspapers, with few exceptions, printed partial lists of income tax payers and the amounts they paid, notwithstanding warnings issued from Washington that such infor- mation would be published at the | paper's own risk. The expected rush of the general public to satisfy , curiosity fail to develop, however, there were com- paratively few requests for infor- mation. Bond salesmen, insurance men and others who might use the information to good advantage en countered frigid receptions, ‘They were informed that making public names and figures on the tax | except for good reason would be re- garded as “violating the spirit of the la GET NO G hington, Oct. 2 expect ne guiding from the government hours to aid them in whether they can publish facts re- | lating to income tax payments with- | out violation of law.

GUIDE ~Newspapers | suggestion within 48 | determining | Ws can DEMANDS ACTION | Kingston, N: Y., Oct. Senator Couzens, chairman of a committee authorized: to investigate the inter- nal revenue bureau, was urged today by Senator LaFollette, independent presidential candidate, to call Secre- tary Mellon and Commissioner Blair of the Bureau before the committee and ask them “by what authority they seek to subvert the will of Congress.” In sending a telegram to Mr. Cou- zens suggesting such action, Mr. LaFollette took cognizance of pub- lished reports that the two officials have objected to the publication by newspapers of the names of tax- Payers and the amount of their in- come taxes, Declaring he understood Mr, Blair had issued a warning “threatening newspapers with fine and imprison- ment” if they published such infor- mation, Senator LaFollette said he believed the Commissioner's “threats violate. the spirit of the publicity amendment of the revenue act and subvert the intent of Congress that the public should know who is pa ing taxes and how much they pay “The purpose of this amendment,” continued Mr. LaFollette’s. telegram to Mr. Couzens, “was to provide a means of checking up on tax dodgers by exposing the fact to public scru- tiny. This purpose will be defeat- ed if publication is prevented.” FOUR SPEAKERS HERE IN ‘BOB LEAGUE RALLY (Continued from page one.5 men on the board found they did not have anything to do and had quit. Referring to the Bank of North; Dakota he declared “if the Bank functioned as it should it would be a God-send to North Dakota and the bankers would come first.” He said that ‘the Great Northern i Northern Pacific railroads have financial centers in St. Paul, the Standard Qil has its own bank and the steel interests have their banks in Pittsburg. “1 believe in this bank being 2 bank for North Dakota.” he said, “the same as other banking centers, where all the business in the state can pass through it.” “If the Bank of North Dakota func- tioned as it should,” he said, “we would have a Bank of North Dak in every other state in the union. _ He said such a bank could finance ‘school bond issues, etc. He declared big business was afraid of the success of the North Dakota experiment, because if they succeeded there would be banks and mills and elevators in the other states. Mr. Sorlie, in closing, advocated buying at home and cooperation to make North Dakota great state. Questions Propounded * He referred to questions propound- ed in a newspaper advertisement yes- terday by the Burleigh County Cam- paign Committee but did not answer them specifically. He said he would answer them by saying if the people of North Dakota wanted to hire him to be governor, with a promise of honest and honorable service, they could do so. - Mr. Thoresen, in a brief talk, do- clared that the question in the cam- paign was whether “you are going to have men in control of your in- dustrial program who created it and who believe in its success, or men who do not.” He charged the failure of the mill and elevator enterprise was due to tof the Department of Justice.
