Tax investigators find list of Swiss accounts
By United Press International
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — A joint U.S.Canadian tax investigation has uncovered a list of thousands of Americans who allegedly deposited assets in Swiss bank accounts, possibly to avoid paying income taxes, an Internal Revenue Service memo shows.
But the investigation may have been jeopardized because of allegations that the former IRS special counsel helped with the mail of a key suspect.
The former agent, David Ballard,
said the nail-tampering allegations
were part of an attempt to quash
the investigation and prevent prosecutors from looking into financial transactions of those named on the list.
Clifford and Helen Browne of Binghamton, N.Y., the targets of Ballard's investigation, said they were involved in the destruction and criminal invasion of privacy.
Because of the manner in which some of their mail came into Ballard's possession, their convoy was interrupted by the Swiss accounts were overturned.
Ballard, who denied any impropriety, said he would testify at his own request before a federal grand jury
The Brownnes were indicted in June 1983 and were convicted of conspiracy and failure to report the transfer of their own funds into Swiss and Canadian bank accounts.

Civil defense agency ends evacuation plan
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The government has quietly shelved a controversial plan to evacuate whole cities to rural areas in the event of nuclear war, officials of the nation's civil defense agency say.
The proposal, dubbed CRP (cris relocation plan), had caused massive resistance across the nation, with several states and cities rejecting the notion that such large-scale evacuations were feasible. Officials had derided it as unworkable and unrealistic.
Officials of the Federal Emergency Management Agency admitted for the first time last week that the plan had been largely
eliminated after a former CTA
official was charged with killing
cats that had killed a blooded anyu-
Peter Dyke, who worked for the CIA for 25 years and retired in 1975, said last week that deep budget cuts in defense signaled the end of the plan.
When asked about Dykes's comments, Russell Clanahan, FEMA deputy press aide, agreed that CRP had been abandoned. But he asserted changes in agency plans, not budget cuts, had forced a new emphasis on natural and man-made range disasters rather than nuclear war.
"We have changed emphasis on what needs to be done in dealing with problems of managing emergencies, of every kind," Clanahan said.
