V/hile only a short time ago the 00-oalled general sales tax plan seem ed to be the most generally accepted form of sales tax, recent developments have put the sticklers for variotis kinds of sales taxes in a free for all race and they intend to fight to the very last ditch to get their tax plans accepted. Although only a retail sales tax and a selected commodity tax were recom mended by the joint finance commit tee whiah recently reported, a revenue bill by the joint finance committee which recently reported a revenue bill to the full commtitee, every indi cation so iar has pointed to the scrap ping of this bill and the drawing up of a new one.
