Discharge of Top
Infernal Revenue
Official Scanned
New York (U.R) The New
York Herald Tribune said today
that "a major political scandal
will explode momentarily in
Washington" over the firing of a
top career official of the Internal
Revenue Service. He charges he
was dismissed for refusing to
conduct a whitewash investiga
tion of a political appointee.
In a copyrighted story from
Washington, the newspaper said
Edgar E. Hoppe, a Dallas, Tex.,
attorney who entered the Inter
nal Revenue Service during the
Hoover administration, was fired
on Oct. 7, 1953, from his post
as chief of the department's in
spection service.
Involved in the case, the Her
ald Tribune said, are Internal
Revenue Commissioner T. Cole
man Andrews -and Deputy Com
missioner O. O. Gordon Delk,
who allegedly sought the "white
wash" report and fired Hoppe for
refusing it; Treasury Secretary
George M. Humphrey, Assistant
Secretary H. Chapman Rose and
General Counsel Elbert Tuttle
who refused to intervene in the
case, and the Civil Service Com
mission which refused Hoppe a
hearing.
The newspaper said Hoppe last
month filed a suit in the Court
of Claims for $26,823 in back
pay, which must be answered by
the government by Oct. 19.
The Herald Tribune said the
files of the case had been made
available to it by Hoppe's at
torney, former Department of
Pustice attorney John P. Witsil.
It said Andrews had been told
details of the story, "listened at
tentivey, laughed, and said he
appreciated the opportunity but
could be quoted as saying 'no
comment'."
The newspaper did not ident
ify the "key official .. . . still on
the payroll" about whom Hoppe
allegedly found derogatory infor
mation that he was asked to sup
press. Quoting from Hoppe's report
to the Civil Service Commission,
it said his division began an "in
tegrity investigation of an of
ficial being brought into a high
post by Mr. Andrew and Mr.
Delk" in February, 1953. Hoppe's
report showed, it was reported,
that the man had set up a
phoney dependency to avoid or
delay military service, that he
had been rejected by a draft
board as a psychoneurotic and
was involved in. difficulties in
volving possible litigation at a
large university. -
Hoppe's report said Delk was
critical on several occasions of
the scope of the investigation
and "criticized me again for
making the reports available to
Civil Service." ;
: Hoppe was quoted as saying
that .after the report was com
pleted, on "May 29, Delk bluntly
asked him if he would consider a
transfer to become director in
the Southwest, a Civil Service
downgrading of two steps.
A month later, the newspaper
said, Hoppe was called before
Andrews who, he said, "told me
he not only wanted me out of my
present post, he wanted me out
of the service.".
