Poor Gloria Swanson Appeals Tax Exemption Denial
Washington May 8 Poor Gloria Swanson seeks tax relief after the Collector of Internal Revenue denied exemptions on $4,000 spent for gemstones used in public appearances. Swanson, the Marquise Delua Falaise in private life, appeals to the Board of Tax Appeals, contesting $35,000 in exemptions denied on her 1921 income of $70,000 and an additional $11,512 tax demand. She cites a contract with Famous Players Lasky requiring public appearances in attractive costumes and lavish entertainment, arguing the gems were a business necessity.
