State Sales Tax Rise Persists In June Kansas
Kansas state sales tax receipts for June show a modest drop from the prior three months but remain 1.1 percent above the 1954 figure. Totaling $3,812,284 for the month, the figure still lifts the 12 month total to a record $43,878,042. The rise marks the 13th consecutive year over year increase, though the gain is the smallest of the series as comparisons with the 1953-54 downturn fade.
