I had an Instance come to hand the 7th day of January of 1946. Two ex-servicemen, buying a business in the middle of the fiscal year, were required to pay a full year's license, although the year's license already had been paid by the previous owner. I am asking you, Macon County citizens, do you call this fair and square to the boys that we sent across? I think if the County Com missioners and the Town Board would give this a thought, they would refund these two boys the money which they paid. W. D. QUNIN.
