(A NP) Jen rungs Perry, former Ivca* newspaper man and current ly president of the Tennessee Committee to Abolish the Poll tax, filed suit in chan eery court here last Wednes day seeking tC force collec tion of the poll tax in an es - fort to demonstrate whether it is good or bad. The suit asks a writ of mandamus to r quire the county trustee to collect the tax. Perry said his suit is based on the fact that it may be that proper enforcement of the tax will demonstrate whether it is a gtod tax or a bad one.” His theory is that under slate laws every in habitant between 21 and SO years of age, not specially exempted by statute to pay an annual pell tax of 51 to the county trustee, is obliged to observe that law. Counties are authorized to charge a similar amount, which makes the lax amount to $2 usually.
