ONE PISTOL SOLD.
State Gets a Tax of $3.50 Under the
New Tax Law.

Austin, Texas, March 1.-THE
comptroller's department has received
a report from c. H. Parks of Amarillo,
a dealer in firearms, in which the lat
ter reports that during the past quar-
ter he sold one revolver for SIS.
Under the gross receipts tax law he
must pay tax of so per cent on that
amount, consequently he RENTED the
sum of $3.50 in payment. 1t is said
that number of dealers in firearms
are not selling them, but instead are
leasing them for a period of fifty
years, and thus the law is evaded.
