Tax advisers urge overhaul of Internal Revenue Service
Washington reports say four advisers warned of a dangerous drop in tax collections due to fraud and ignorance. They urged stronger enforcement, expanded spot checks of 200 000 annual personal income tax returns, and a shift from protecting revenue to protecting taxpayers. They favor a metering system for liquor and cigarettes and stress high standards of integrity and fairness. Undersecretary Wiggins supported enforcement boosts, citing over five billion dollars in unpaid taxes. Commissioner Schoeneman praised the study as important public service.
