Attorney General Eyes Rehearing On Gasoline Tax
Montana Attorney General Foot said the state will seek a rehearing of the Montana Supreme Court ruling on the 1923 gasoline tax law. The case, brought by Sunburst Refining against the state, challenged a tax on Montana refineries but not gasoline shipped into the state. The AG argues federal practice allowed state taxation of in state produced fuel and cites a 1923 federal court decision. A legislative transcription error allegedly omitted a restrictive clause, affecting the law's interpretation.

Juvenile escapes detention after father's plea
The father of a boy charged in Juvenile court with stealing money from clothing in a locker at the M M A was exposed to embarrassment when he went to County Attorney George Padbury Jr. to explain his son had been missing since Saturday night.
