Resume of tax hearing in William Lins case at Wheeling

Washington based accountant Jay Goldberg of Wheeling W V was to be questioned today in the William G Lins tax case hearing. Goldberg testified for nearly two weeks at an earlier hearing and said he prepared tax returns for Liss and checked books of Lias enterprises. Liss the 404 pound owner of Wheeling Downs Race Track testified that Goldberg knows more about his affairs than he does and that Lias was a bootlogger and professional gambler in earlier years. The government contends Lias owes 4950000 dollars in taxes penalties and interest for 1942 through 1948. Liss denies owing any amount.
