Mr. Wilson, proprietor of Co operative Buying Service here, states that his organization welcom ! es ihir. suit. He says they have been endeavoring for the pas', ten months, through the association of which they are members, to have some such action brought so that | the constitutionality of this law can be brought to a test before the [ higher courts. He states further: "We are con-1 t'ident not only that the Jenkins .-aw itself is in direct violation of I the Constitution of the United Ststes. but are further conv.nc. l lha~ all of these State tobacco | laws are unconstitutional in that they attempt to assess discrimina tory taxes on a common necessity up to as much as 400 per cent of the first sales value. Some forty States are now exacting upwards of 450 million dollars of illegal taxes from the public under such laws. In the process of determin ing the validity of the Jenkins I 'aw, these State laws will have to be examined and ruled upon by "he Highest Court, something that we have long wished might be possible. It is true that we are I making no reports of any client to any State authorities, nor ever will, because there is no Federal Law whatsoever existing that in I any way attempts to make our I activities criminal in any sense of the word. ? 'I am not the least bit discon certed about this move. As a iratter of fact. I am proud to be the "guinea pig" when it comes to ;he question of any challenge to the liberties and fundamental rights guaranteed to the American Citizen by the United States Con stitution."
