Final vote set on North Carolina sales tax in Roanoke
The Raleigh Herald reports the North Carolina House advanced a two percent general sales tax with support 51 to 49 and 56 to 42 on readings while debates over electric power, foreign stock and franchise taxes loom. Senate action may raise the rate to three percent, with adjournment likely by early May. Executors warn creditors to file claims by April 20, 1934, in the Hockaday estate case.
