FRANCHISE TAX IS
HARD TO COLLECT

Little Rock, Sept 2.-The franchise
tax is yielding Arkansas a handsome
revenue, but it is not the easiest mat
ter to collect it. 1t is estimated in
the attorney generals office that fully
five hundred corporations are delin-
quent in the payment of their tax. 1t
amounts to a few dollars to S6,S87.45
tax and $l,72lS6 for the Cotton Belt
railroad, which is the largest. In
many instances the delinquency has
been found to be the result of care
lessness or neglect The Cotton Belt
is the only corporation that is serious
ly fighting it, 1t opposed the pay
ment of the tax last year, and judg-
ment was rendered against it by
Chancellor Martineau, now pending
in supreme court. Suit has also been
brought for this years tax The at
torney general has no power to remit
the penalty of % per cent.
