A summary of the study was sent to resident-elec- t Jimmy Carter. It could be extremely significant to Mr. Carter in his plans to reorganize the federal government, said Gene Russell of the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

The complex task of tracing the dispersal of every tax dollar spent in the county was coordinated by Community Research unique study the Dayton, Ohio, area shows that once federal and state tax dollars trickle to the local level, they far eclipse government in expenditures by locally elected city and county officials. The study shows that about 70 percent o all government money spent in Montgomery County, Ohio, which includes Dayton, was disbursed without any locally elected official ever luting to spehd it About $824 million came from federal sources, with n of that going mainly to Air Force Base.

In a report issued Wednesday by Congress Joint Committee on Internal Revenue Taxation, the GAO said the earemphasis on the middle-incom- e ners apparenly was done to meet increased quotas established within the donnrtmvnt The quotas were intended to support a proposal that Congress authonze hiring of more auditors. The report said IRS ignored its own rules winch specify that increased audits should be directed against groups with low compliance records. Middle-incom- e taxayers, those who make between $10,000 and $50,000 in adjusted gross income, historically have the best record in paying taxes honestly and promptly, the GAO report said. IRS spokesman, Leon Levine, said the concentration on middle-incom- e earners was limited and that the deviation from policy has since been corrected. An Levine contended that even with the additional audits of middle-incom- e taxpayers, the IRS still audited a higher percentage of taxpayers in upper-incom- e brackets over the 1973-- 7 period. purge victory HONG KONG (UPI) -Hua Kuo-fenin his first public speech since becoming chairman of the Chinese Communist party, said Wednesday the purge of radicals from the pally leadership was a great, historic victory (Gate ,of Heavenly Peace) Square for the laying of the cornerstone of a memorial hall for See Page C-6- ."
