Merchants Won’t Fight
Sales Tax in State Courts
(Continued from Page One.)
change it and that there Is virtually
no possibility of a session of
the General Assembly. They also
realized that if they contested the
tax in the courts it would take about
two years to get a final decision—and
that it would probably /be against
them and in f/vor of the State. It
was also pointed out that they would
be placed in a position of obstruct
ing the State government and be
likely to losem uch public sympathy
for thoir cause. As a result, it was
decided best for all concerned to sit
tight for the time being and not try
to contest the tax in court.
There were some memlbers of the
board of directors, just as there are
hundreds and probably thousands of
merchants, who would like to see an
out-and-out anti-sales tax ticket for
governor and lieutenant governor in
the Democratic gubernatorial cam
paign next spring and who would sup
port such a ticket. But the wiser and
more experienced heads both among
the merchants and in other circles,
are inclined to agree that it would be
vrey difficult to nominate and elect
an anti-sales tax ticket over such
strong candidates already in the race
as Clyde R. Hoey, of Shelby, Lieute
nant Governor A. H. (Sandy) Graham
and others. They are much more in
clined to wait and see if one of the
four candidates already in the race
for governor will not take some stand
for a reduction in the sales tax rate
and for its gradual replacement with
other taxes and them support this
candidate, rather than try to put an
anti.sales tax ticket into the field
Reports are current that one of the
present candidates for governor may
issue a statement very soon outlin
ing a plan for removing the sales tax
from basic food articles and prclbably
for reducing the rate.
Tbe reason for the actren taken by
the directors of the State Merchants
Association goes back to this recent
General Assembly, when faced either
witb a continuation of the sales tax
or the many new taxes proposed in
the so-called McDonald - Lumpkin
plan, a large number of the larger
merchants. Including the Belk and
Efird chains of stores, decided they
would much rather keep the sales tax
For the McDonald-Lumpkin plan
would have put the equivalent of a
50 cents State property taxes on all
merchants, based on their buildings,
stocks and fixtures. They would also
have had to pay this tax themselves
and could not have passed it along
t ( , their customers as easily as they
do the sales tax As a result, it did
not take the larger merchants and
store chains long to decide that ths
sales tax was the lesser of two evils
and to use their influence against
the McDonald-Lumpkin proposals and
for a retention of the sales tax. 3ome
of the smaller merchants did not like
this, but since the Ibigger merchants
put up the greater part of the money
for the support of the North Caro
lina Merchants Association and for
its lobbying activities, the little fel
lows could not afford to kick very
much or very hard. Accordingly, vir
tually all of the McDonald-Lumpkin
plan was defeated and the sales tax
was re-enacted nad enlarged to apply
to basic food purchases as well as all
others.
This was one reason—and probably
the principal one—why the directors
of ihe merchants association decided
not to fight the sales tax so vigor,
ously, at the present time, since they
know that if it is removed or dis
placed, other taxes just as unplea
sant and probably much more bur
densome on them directly, will have
to be levied in its place. For it is now
conceded that it would be impossible
to operate the State government with
out the sales tax or a tax that would
yield just as much.

regarded as epidemic in Wake and

townships of Moore county, to vote

The latter act was involved in pro
ceedings brought to prevent an elec

At the same time, however, he re
