Oil Industry Opposes Fuel Oil Tax 1 Introduction in congress of the Boland bill levying a one cent per gallon tax on fuel oil used for heating and power production has brought quick, action on the part of the oil industry, which sees in ' the bill a threat to millions of fam ilies. According to W. Roy Carpenter, chainnan of ' the Macon County Petroleum Industries committee, "The burden of the tax in this state would fall on the home own ers of North Carolina. More than 10 per cent of them, have already installed oil burners to obtain the Comfort and economy of oil heat. The Boland bill would increase their annual fuel bill $21 on the average, or nearly $2 per month for each family using oil heat." He pointed out that a cent a gal lon levy in North Carolina would , be in effect a fuel oil sales tax of approximately .12 per . cent, (the average price in North Carolina being about eight cents a gallon), which is in addition to the three per cent sales tax already in effect on all fuel oil. Not only would home owners be hard hit, he. contended, but dwell ers in apartment houses would be forced to pay increased rent be cause of increased cost of heating the buildings. Hotels, he estimated, would in many cases find their fuel bills increased as much as one-third. "The proposal to impose a cent a gallon tax is .not only a big step backwards, but is an imposition on the intelligence of the American people," he said.
