Stassen Wins Tax Refund After Board Abates Penalties

The Philadelphia tax review board approved a $589 refund to Harold Stassen former presidential adviser and ex governor of Minnesota for abated interest and penalties on wage taxes from 1954 to 1956. Stassen argued he was not a Philadelphia resident and paid taxes late due to residence in Maryland while serving as disarmament adviser to President Eisenhower. The board found he acted in good faith. Navy efforts to ship books from Norfolk to African ports faced delays until a large organization offered transport. Local groups and Woodland Hills Democrat volunteers launched fund drives to cover $500 freight to move 20 000 vormes from Africa to Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland.
