Challenged Cigarette Tax Suit Filed in Circuit Court
Aett challenged Illinois cigarette tax law claiming it unconstitutionally defines distributors and violates Interstate Commerce Act. Attorney Richard F. Babcock filed suit against Attorney General George Barrett and Revenue Director Paul C. Rosenquist after his client, Esscock, bought 16 cartons by mail from Indiana and was asked to pay $4.80 and obtain a distributor’s license. The state revenue department has reportedly increased collection. Elementary and secondary teacher counts rose since 1935, with 2,544 to 3,002 and 1,209 to 1,449 respectively.
