State seeks proof of tax loss under new 22 percent bracket
The Kansas State Revenue Department requests facts to support claims by two variety stores that they would lose money under a new 22 percent sales tax bracket effective June 1. Officials of S S Kresge and F W Woolworth say they cannot collect the full tax, as the arrangement still allows merchants to take over five percent on some sales. Revenue Director John Kirchner invites figures and promises full consideration. A spokesman notes five 20 cent sales would yield five pennies in tax, while only 22 percent of collected tax goes to the state.
