Welfare Association
Gels Tax Refunds
Of $107,700
Sum Is Largest Made
To Any Person or Group
In Collection District
The Welfare and Recreation As
sociation of Public Buildings and
Grounds, Inc., has received refunds
of more than $107,700 on Internal
Revenue taxes paid during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1939, it was
disclosed today.
The corporation received the larg
est total refund of an individual
or group paying the taxes in the
Maryland collection district which
Includes the District of Columbia.
All but about $3,000 of the refund
which was based on a capital stock
tax payment, was an income tax
rebate.
The rebate was one of some 150
paid to Washingtonians or Wash
ington representatives of persons
or firms paying the taxes in other
Jurisdictions.
The list for the entire country
was submitted by the Treasury to
Congress as provided by Act of
Congress in 1928 and was made
public by Chairman John J. Coch
ran of the Committee on Expendi
tures in the Executive Departments.
Amounts Already Paid.
It was made clear by Chairman
Cochran that the report covering
some $49,413,686 in refunded taxes,
Inclusive of interest, represents
amounts paid to taxpayers during
the fiscal year ending last June 30
and not amounts to be refunded in
the future.
The bulk of the refunds in the
District were on income tax pay
ments although there were some
social security, estate, processing
and other payments.
Only about half the rerunds were
on amounts paid in the Maryland
f t nrlop tVin rt ri
of Columbia. The other half is
made up of persons or firms filing
payments in other States but whose
refunds were paid to legal or other
representatives in the District.
Refunds, Chairman Cochran said,
are based on overpayments gener
ally due to mathematical errors, re
porting of non-taxable income, fail
ure to take credit for foreign taxes,
and failure to take proper credit for
depreciation and obsolescence of
physical properties.
The larger refunds, he said, are
generally based on rulings by the
Board of Tax Appeals, the courts,
or determination by the Treasury
on the basis of board and court
decisions.
Those Receiving Refunds.
Those receiving refunds on
amounts paid in the Maryland dis
, trict and the taxes on which the
rebate was made were:

Virginia Players
Ruled Eligible
For Jobless Aid
By the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Feb. 1.—The State
Unemployment Compensation Com
mission has expressed the opinion
that professional baseball players in
Virginia are eligible for unemploy
ment benefit payments under the
State law.
Commission Chairman Frank P.
Evans based his decision on the
contention that players in organized
baseball were employed in a "sea
sonal industry” and as “seasonal
employes” were entitled to benefits
In the event their clubs paid the
taxes.
The chairman said he was certain
at least three clubs in the Piedmont
League, Richmond, Norfolk and
Portsmouth, had paid the taxes.
While a provision of the Virginia
Unemployment Act forbids the re
lease of names of persons receiving
benefits except to “interested
parties,” Maj. Evans said he knew
of at least one player who received
benefits last fall for several weeks
after the regular season closed. The
payments ceased when the player
obtained an off-season job outside
the State.
