Tax Data Scrutiny Nears Iowa Tax Office Rift
Iowa lawmakers may study tax collection methods, bringing State Comptroller Marvin Selden Jr and Legislative Fiscal Director H Dwayne Wicker into a cordial clash over data processing of confidential returns. The interim committee seeks better compliance while negotiating who may handle tax records. The probe could touch Selden’s office as machines process filings in cooperation with the comptroller. Governor Harold Hughes supports the data processing program, while Tax Commission Chairman Andrew George argues only commission personnel should access confidential records. The dispute heightens as the program awaits broader implementation and possible cross checks of 1961 income filings.
