OSCAR | WILL GNE ME SOMETHING . 20 MILLION TAKEN IN TAX CHECK-UPS Government Running Down All . Fraudulent Returns Washington, July 16.—Approxi- mately twenty milon dollara was added to the government's revenues during the fiscal year just ended through recoveries from false and fraudulent income .tax reurns, Com- missioner Blair announced today. Indictments have been returned during the year in every section of the country and many jail sentences have been imposed, ranging from 60 days to a year, in addition to fines and penalties. 3 “Fraud on the revenue by way of filing false and fraudulent tax re- turns appears in many unique ways,’” Mr. Blair said.: “‘Some taxpayers are extremély crude in their methods and reduce théir’taxea by merely omitting” lorge items of ‘income from their returns. Thus in one instance a promineént merchant in one of “our larger citiés owned and operated two stores. For three years straight heé omitted entirely from his réturns the income of cne of the two stores. “In another instance a prominent man_received approximately one-half of his income as salary from a cor- poration of which he was president and of which corporation he owned practically all the stock. The corpor: ation took this salary as a deduction and a necessary expense; the man himself entirely omitted to report this salary never thinking that the corporation’s return would be checkea against - hit individual return. ““Manipulations of inventory are not infrequently found and thesa can al- ways be checked accurately ‘by thae field examinera of tha bureau and no business of any size can keep accurate books and at the same time manipu- late inventories. Some taxpayers, evi- dently are of the belief that they can hire unscrupulous accountants who reconstruct their books, and then if the fraud is discovered blame it all on the accountants, to whom they usually pay large fees. In many in- stances field examiners have discov- ered that taxpayers keep two sets ot books, one set accurately setting forth the status of the business and the other set fraudulently setting forth their in- come and merely kept for the purpose of defrauding the government. Tt is safe to say in nine out of ten of these latter cases the fraud is discovered a short time after it is perpetrated. CITY ITEMS Have the Herald follow you on vour vacation.

GIMME A PIECE OF THAT HUCKLE - BERRY PIE, ‘of William's children. NUMEROUS MINOR CASES IN COURT iMorans Freed From Cruelty to Animals Charge The benefit of an éxisting doubt in the case of Lee Morans, charged with cruelty to animals, was given the ac- cused this morning by Judge George W. Klett and he was discharged. Agents of the State Humane society found a horse which was believed to have been owned by: Morans, in a weakened condition suffering from an injury to foot. Morans made a claim of having given the horse to Le Roy Fisher, in whose custody the animal had been for three weeks prior to the time it was killed by the Humane society agents. .For further investi- gation the matter was continued from ‘Wednesday morning until today. Law- yer Michael A. Sexton represented the accused. Fisher told the court this morning that Morans made an offer to sell the horse but he réfused to pay more than two cents for the animal. Morans then agreed to turn the horse into Fisher's pasture and if it could be cured to sell it cheaply. In the meantime the horse roamed around and the matter was reported to the authorities. William Stockman was lectured for assaulting. Joseph Bachukus, and both Joseph and his mother were warned against causing family troubles on Hurlburt street. Stock- man is alleged to have punched Jo- seph :in the back Thursday evening after the boy threw sand in the hair Neighbors re- ported that the boy is exceedingly fresh and the mother even worse. Two boys appeared as complain- ants against a 13 year old boy charged with' the theft of a bicycle. He was placed on probation. A 16 year old girl recited family troubles which were responsible for her appearamce on an incorrigibility charge. She is disobedient and does not ‘work, the complaint charged. A continuance was ordered so that the parents might be heard. A 14 year old boy whose 16 year old .brother has been supporting him was committed until the older brother finds employment. - Two orphaned children were com- mitted to the county home and two other children whose mother has found it'necessary to secure employ- ment were similarly cared for. Four .Shuttle Meagow club caddies were lectured for damaging the links. They wére held for the police by an employe at the golf club following their improper actions on the grounds. BEER AND BONUS IS BOTHERING CONGRESS Foth Measures, Pending, Are as Yef Unsettled and Come Up Next Week Again. ‘Washington, July 16.—Another spir- ited struggle is promised in the sen- ate next week as the result of an ef- fort late yesterday to take up the Willis-Campbell anti-beer bill, follow- ng recommital of the soldiers’ bonus measure. The senate adjourned yes- terday until next Monday without de- Lating or acting on the beer dill mo- tion, offered .by Senator Sterling, re- publican, South Dakota, but there were promises of opposition Monday Laying aside of the bonus measure has left the whole program of the sen- ate in doubt and the republican steer- ing committee as a result is planning a meeting early next week in the hope of working out a program for disposal ct the beer bill, the Norris agricultural = eXport finance and other agricultural relief measures. Passage of the Sweet bill for consolidation of soldier reliet agencies anl the administration bill for refunding the allied debts also will be considered. With these meas- nres completed senators hoped that late this morning after reference of the house tariff bill to the finance committee a series of recesses may be arranged to afford some rest during August while committee work pro- ceeds on the tariff bill. _In connection with the proposal to give the anti-beer bill right of way, advocates of farmer relief legisla- ticn promised to press their meas- ures next week and possibly place them ahead of the beer bill.
