Editor News-Telegram:
We are very anxious that as, many
people as possible who are affected
by the new gasoline tax refuiYd law-,
enacted by the Kith Legislature, be-
come famiiiar with its terms in order
that those entitled to the refund may
experience no difficulty in getting
back their money. It particularly
applies to rural areas where large
Amounts of gasoline are used in farm
machinery.
— To that end we have bad the -fol-
lowing memorandum prepared arid
Sincerely hope you may find space
in your columns to advise your read-
ers of these important changes,
which no doubt affect many of them
directly.—Cordially, Geo. H, Shep-
pard, Comptroller Public Accounts;
The New Law,
Farmers and gasoline dealers—as
well as all others who under the law-
are entitled to a refund in gasoline
taxes—were urged by Comptroller
George Sheppard today to study the
terms of a new state law making
several material changes effective
Sdpt. I.
Farmers are among largest users
of gakoline upon which the tax is
paid; and after Sept. 1, Sheppard
pointed'out, the Comptroller can ra-
fund only to those who pur^hpsed
their fuel from licensed d&alef^.
Hence it is important from the users*
standpoint that they make certain
the dealer is licensed. *"
The departmental analysis of - the
law’ showed that these changes were
made: ■
I: -Beginning Sept. 1, 1939, the
Comptroller is prohibited from issu-
ing warrant in.'payment of a refund
claim on any motor fuel not pur-
chased from a licensed dealer.
2. All dealers In motor fuel for
refund purposes must obtain license
from' the Comptroller authorizing
such dealers to sell such motor fuel.
Failure to obtain license subjects the
dealer to criminal prosecution.
3. Licenses and invoices of ex-
emption will be furnished the dealer,
free of cost, by the Comptroller’*
Department when application is
made therefor.
4. All invoices of exemption will
he serially numbered and each sup-
ply furnished a dealer by the Comp-
troller’s Department will be charged
to such dealer, and an accurate ac-
count of all such invoices of exemp-
tion must be kept by the dealer.. No
other form of invoice of exemption
may be used than that furnished by
JJje Comptroller.
5. The dealer is required to keep
accurate records of all motor fuel
sold, for a period of two years.
6. Blank invoices of exemption
nOt transferable or assignable unless
authorized by the Comptroller. Deal-
er is not authorized to lend or give
away invoices of exemption, as he!
must keep accurate books, Vecord*
and account af all invoices of ex-
emption issued to him.
7. Invoices of exemption m.U* be
issued at the time of delivery of the;
motor fuel. Heretofore such in-
voices have’ been issued at the time
of sale.
8. Unless the users of refund
motor fuel and the dealers who sell
refund motor fuel are advised of this,
change in the law a great deal of |
confusion will result, and a lot of j
refund claims will not be payable. It
it, therefore, important that each
user of refund motor fuel who ex-
pects to file claim for a refund of
the tax acquaint himself with the
new provisions of the, law. j
