Revoke Tax Privileges Of Alleged Communist Front Organizations
The Internal Revenue Bureau revoked tax privileges for about 20 alleged subversive groups including the National Council for American Soviet Friendship and the International Workers Order. Taxpayers who claimed deductions for donations to these organizations may be required to repay refunds for the past three years, with three more years of potential impact limited by statute. The move follows inclusion on Attorney General Clark’s master list and violations of tax rules prohibiting donations used for propaganda or legislative influence.
