Taxation by chain store tax wanes across states
Support for the tax seems to have diminished. From 1932 to 1936 twenty eight states adopted it, eight discontinued it, and it will expire in 1937 in ten other states. The agitation remains sporadic in this state with signs of more organized demand in 1937. Twenty five states have adopted the tax in various forms, mainly in the South and West, while Maine has resisted. California voters recently rejected a chain store tax law, seen as a warning by consumers.
