NEW SALES TAX RULES TO GO IN EFFECT AUG. 1 (Continued from page one) cessive rates of tax on small sales. To compensate the loss of tax on sales below the taxable line the use of a cumulative rule on purchases at one trading period was denied, so as to give the merchant an excess on taxable merchandise to make up the loss on non-taxable sales below the taxable line. This denial of the right of the customer to have the tax com muted on the tot#l of purchases made 'at one time, rather than upon each article, in many cases resulted in tax ! charges of S and 6 per cent when the j total purchases were large enough to j apply a straight 3 per cent. This was jso confusing that many merchants | elected not to use this advantage. These experiences have been strong | ly persuasive in the direction of a sin gle schedule for all merchants, start ing with "a'Tower taxable line for the benefit of merchants having a large volume of sales below the taxable line and making it adjustable to all mer chants by using a higher top range in each bracket and giving the cus tomer the benefit of a tax adjusted to the total sum of hi* purchases at one trading period. Under the new rule now promulgat ed, it will not be possible for the mer chant to irclude the tax in the price of each article of merchandise, because the amount of tax on a given article ia not an exact sum, but will vary with reference to whether two or More purchases are made at the same time, and depends upon the total ittm THE ENTERPRISE of such cumulative purchases. The •ingle uniform schedule gives to the merchant the advantage of fair and uniform trade practice, and to the pur. chaser the advantage of a tax applied to his cumulative purchases as near to the 3 per cent tax paid by the tper chant as can reasonably be applied. The rule does not require the use of coupons, stamps, or sales tickets, and can be easily applied by every mer chant and easily understood by the customer. Under this simple single uniform rule the customer can never be over charged more than a fraction of a cent on any purchase or group of pur chases, and is given a part of the break of fractions on taxable purchases and no tax on single purchases below 10 cents. The general scope of this new »;hed ule has been discussed with represen tative merchandising groups in the I State, and has met with a very pleas ing degree of approval and assurance of cooperation in its observance. The practical unanimity with which it has been accepted by merchandis ing groups is a line indication of their I real desire to cooperate with any set 'of regulations that provide uniformity of practice and protects them from ab J sorption of the tax, which was the I clear intent of the General Assembly. In the interest of uniform practice and understanding the new regulation , has been put in the form of a placard i that is printed by the Department of Revenue and will be furnished with out charge The accompanying cut !is a fac-simile reproduction of the placard. They will be furnished in lithograph printing on bristol board, size 11 by 14 inches, in such quanti ties as may be needed, to merchants' associations for distribution to their members and other merchants. In communities where there is no or ganization of merchants it is requested that some particular merchant order a sufficient quantity to supply the mer chants in the community. Mitchell Citizens Urge Retaining County Agent Leading farmers, business and pro fessional men of Mitchell county have appeared before the county commis sioners to request that county agent work be continued.
