Nixon’s income tax bill was $1,670 for two years. Read more from The Providence (Rhode Island) Journal archives.
A telephone request yesterday to the office of Gerald L. Warren, the White House deputy press secretary, for comment on the tax information went unanswered.
The Journal-Bulletin could not obtain President Nixon’s complete income tax forms, which reportedly are kept sealed in a safe across the hall from the Internal Revenue Service commissioner’s office, so it is uncertain exactly how such large refunds were possible. Tax information for the other years of the Nixon presidency are not in the records of the mid-Atlantic region, the sources said, concluding that the Nixons apparently filed tax returns in Washington only in 1970-71.
The Baltimore Sun and the New York Times carried stories last month saying that the mortgage interest paid by Mr. Nixon on his home in San Clemente, Calif. and Key Biscayne, Fla., and a deduction for the gift of his vice presidential papers combined for a figure higher than his salary and returns from other assets. The papers concluded that the Nixons paid no taxes in 1970-71.
