McHENRY PHONE McHENRY 230 RESPONSIBLE FOR FORM ACCURACY No matter who prepares or helps prepare a ^federal income tax return, the taxpayer or taxpayer signing it are responsible for its accuracy and for being able to prove any claims made in it, District Director H. Alan Long of the Internal Revenue Service, emphasized today. "This doesn't mean," Mr. Long explained, "that we don't welcome the assistance provided by members of the accounting profession, or by the personnel^ banks and other ofho assist fellow emand friends. Both we taxpayers so aided be grateful for such valuable help. "But, neither they--nor our own agents who assist taxpayers by phone or irt person at our offices--can do more than accept the taxpayer's own words or records in offering help. So, if a return is questioned later, during more intensive audit than it received on filing, it's up to the taxpayer to be able to prove what he has claimed and entered as the true f^cts and figures--usually with cancelled checks and other documentary records. All taxpayers should retain all records which were used in preparing returns until at least three years after the filing deadline of the year in which filed, Mr. Long pointed out. MOOSE LODGE WOMEN OF THE MOOSE COMPANY SALE RECORD H. V. McNamara, president of the National Tea company, reported another new record high in annual sales, reaching more than $681 million, for a gain of over $63 million compared to the previous year, and the fifteenth consecutive sales record for the Chicago based food chain.
