STEELTAXREFUID Says Treasury Rule Erro- heous—Cases Should Go to Courts. Representative Garner, Democrat, of ‘Texas, minority leader in the House, who has been an arch foe of the Treasury policy in awarding refunds in income taxes, yesterday charged in a statement that the Treasury was guilty of “gross negligence” because it did not refer the recent United States Steel Corporation case to the courts. The corporation ob- tained about a $33,000,000 tax refund. Asserting that the Government lost at least $9,000,000 and possibly $26,000,000 @s a result, the Texan said the Amer- lean taxpayers were entitled to démand that tax refund matters be adjudicated by_the courts. In his statement Garner attacked the method of the Treasury, declarihg the rule by which the refunds were made to the stéel corporation was erromeous ln"pr!dlllclple and that a halt should be called. He noted that his resolution to au- thorize an investigation of the Treas- ury Department tax refunds actions had not been considered by the House rules committee, to which it had been referred. It was evident, Garner said, from a recent decision by the United States Courd of Claims in the Packard Motor Car Co. case against the Government, that a loss of $9.000,000 occurred in the steel corporation refund on 1918 taxes, as, he added, the same issues were involved. “Application of the same principles to the $26,000,000 réfind to the United States Steel Corporation on 1917 taxes would have saved the Government $17,000,000,” the Téxdn continued. “In my opinien the Treasury De ent has been guilty of wa negligence in its fallure to zfln& 0se controverted mgtters into the eourts. ‘The steel corporation's refund was -based on an opl.nlgr t‘x‘g‘om Solicitor Alexander clreqw Internal Reve- fiue Biiréai, who, Garner sai, later declinéd to approve if 10 SOLDIER DEAD Massing of Colors Service at Cathedral Draws Dis- trict Patriots.

Instead, the opportunity to make a ““flliy noteworthy contribution to the science of flight attracted Packard engineering genius. 80, equipped with the finest of facilities— adequate resources, the best of materials and machinery and an engineerin surpassed ability and experfe staff of un- nce—Packard spent three years at the so-called “impossible” task of adapting eraft engines. the Diesel principle to air- A Packard Triumph The Pagkard-Diesel eliminates the principat causes of motor failure.
