Tucson Tax Windshield Stamps Remain Through June
Despite many motorists removing last year’s automobile use stamps, Tucson post officials say the five dollar tax won’t be officially ended until Sunday, June 20. The wartime stamps were sold at twenty thousand copies annually in Pima county, with 20 125 last year. The policy remains moot on whether locally bought stamps were used for boats. Other levies still in effect include capital stock tax, excess profits tax, and declared value excess profits tax. War rate taxes also apply to theatre and cabaret admissions and the luggage cosmetics jewelry and fur taxes.
