State Sales Tax Funds Winners, Plates Debate Continues
Collections for that quarter reached 14.79 million with a 9,485 shortfall from the 1952 quarter after refunds to taxing bodies. Legislative action now exempts taxing bodies from the sales tax. GOP figures praise 1953 net figures, while calls for new 1955 license plates clash with safety chief Pearl McMurry’s funding concerns. Auto dealers urge plates, arguing 1953 plates rusted and duplicated plates add 50 cents, and claim prison labor costs are overstated.
