the toughest has done much to bring
victories to the Jadftts.

locked at 14-15

Brownwood chain stores have re-
ceived notio? from the state comp-
troller's office of the ndw "chain
store tax law" which went into ef- t
fleet a few days ago. Several Brown-
wood firms have filed application*
tor licenses under the new law as
It calls for a tax on nearly every
establishment doing either retail or
wholesale business The law, which
has been under litigation since
1938. has been found constitutional
and therefore taxes for three yean
are due.
The tax graduates upward, de-
pending upon the number of stores
operated by one company, and is
distributed three-fourth* to the gen-
eral fund and one-fourth to the
school fund. Two of the largest lump
payments yet roceiwd by the state
office were 8584 480 and 8183*69
payments from the Great Atlanta |
and Pacific Tea Company and J.
C. Penney Company.
