Stamp Tax Abolished Across Most Items Beginning Saturday
The new emergency revenue bill wipes out the wartime stamp tax on most items seen by citizens as unnecessary or excessive, though liquor remains taxed and tobacco may still contribute. Unused stamps may be redeemed within two years. The old schedules A and B are removed, affecting bonds, stock transfers, notes, insurance, deeds, passenger tickets, and other transactions, with varied cent- per-$100 rates.
