H. E. Nooney, government revenue agent for Kansas has established temporary headquarters here to check up on doubtful income return affidavits. Mr. Nooney said one Coffeyville firm's return blank showed sufficient erroneous data to necessitate a penalty of at least $3,500.

He said there are about four thousand income records under investigation in the state. "Many of these doubtless "will be penealized," said Mr. Nooney, "but it dosen't necessarily mean that all willfully misrepresented the facts. The greatest trouble lies in the fact that their income statements have net solid proof on which to base the claims."
