Tax Exemption Denied for Late Draft Registrants
A World War II era tax exemption for soldiers who actually served is denied to those who were called up just before the war’s end. The attorney general’s ruling confirms that a registrant discharged before induction does not qualify for the exemption. The opinion was issued to county auditor Frank W. Esher after requests from A G. Reid and others hastening to resolve eligible claims.
