MELLON REALTY HOLDINGS FIXED AT 58.000.000 Secretary Tells Board of Huge Investments in City Property. By T'pitrrf prff PITTSBURGH. March I.—The Federal inquiry into Andrew W. Mellon's income dipped today into his local real estate holdings. F. R. Shearer, associate government counsel, questioned Mr. Mellon’s confidential secretary—H. M. Johnson—about the properties the former Secretary of the Treasury owns here. Mr. Johnson detailed many of them in routine figures, j although he remarked when Mr. Shearer began that line of ques - tioning yesterday that he would "hate to try to find all of them." Mr. Johnson said today that Mr. Mellon owned numerous pieces of downtown property, including two hotels. The total downtown holdings are valued at $8,000,000, Mr. Johnson said. Mr. Johnson told the three members of the board of tax appeals which is holding the hearings that part of $20,000,000 assets in the ! joint account of Mr. Mellon and his brother, the late Richard B, were included in the $07,000,000 figure he named last week as Mr. Mellons personal wealth. i The government seeks $3,000,000 additional taxes and penalties on Mr. Mellon's 1931 income, while the former cabinet officer contends he ! overpaid his tax by $139,000. The hearings, now in their ninth | day, probably will last another • month.
