I haven’t looked at this law, but suspect that especially since it was enacted 100 years ago, it only allows the chairman to review the return, not receive a copy.

Information on copy machines: Oct 23, 2013 - Inventor Chester Carlson used static electricity created with a handkerchief, light and dry powder to make the first copy on Oct. 22, 1938. The copier didn’t get on to the market until 1959, more than 20 years later. When it did, the Xerox machine prompted a dramatic change in the workplace.
