Lawyer Not Yet 30 Faces Massive Ford Tax Dispute
Detroit January hearing on a $30,000,000 tax claim against Ford Motor stockholders enters its third day. Alexander W. Gregg, a young tax lawyer for the government, defends the Revenue Bureau against claims from James Couzens and eight others who seek to free stockholders from the assessment. Stockholders have already paid $20,000,000 in taxes on profits from Ford stock sold to Henry Ford in 1919. The case centers on the revocation of a $39,489.34 per share valuation set by Daniel C. Roper in 1919 for stock bought at $123,500 to $13,444.48 per share based on a 1913 valuation.
