Oil King to Escape Tax
Cleveland, Ohio. James B. Ruhl and Charles P. Salen, Cuyahoga county's new deputy tax commissioners, weigh wiping from the tax records the personal property tax on 811,000,000 assessed against John D. Rockefeller last year. Action in federal court seeks a permanent injunction against the 60,000,000 assessment. The plan may invite Rockefeller to Cleveland to review his property and set a fair basis for taxation. Rockefeller and his son favor quick burial of Mrs Rockefeller in Lake View cemetery, a factor that could speed tax resolution. Further steps depend on abatement of the tax by the State Board and potential withdrawal of the federal suit.
