INTERESTING TO PRODUCERS

der Protest, Says Mr.. Hefner

der Protest, Says Mr.. Hefner
r. A. Helner who returned from Ok
,alOma City this morning made the
following statement which is OF much
importance 70 producers Of oil.
The state board Of equalization met
TO Oklahoma City yesterday for the
purpose OF considering the protest OF
the producers Of oil against the en-
.orremeut Of the per cent gross pro
duot.ou tax. Many o. the producers
flied protests against the payment OF
this tax. in order that the state audi
tor might hold the money until the
.a,iaity OF the law has been deter
mined. for if he Immediately turns
the money into the state treasury,
and the law should be held void, there
would be no way of recovering this
money except by an act Of the legisla-
Wrc. Where the protests were nled
iu accordance with the recent law,
the state auditor will hold the money
and not turn # into the treasury until
the law has been tested by the su-
preme court.
Yesterday case was fled in the
supreme court against the state audi
tor. in which case the various obiec-
lions to- the law are urged. In addition
TO this case am agreed statement OF
facts was entered into in one case be-
fore the state board of equalization,
which board oyerruled the contentious
OF the producers from which action the
case will be Immediately appealed to
the supreme court, and will be ar
guod and heard in the supreme court
iu connection with the case first above
referred to. In this way all OF the
points and objections against the law
can be raised and determined and it is
expected that the supreme court will
render a decision as early as it can.
The gross taxes that have been
paid by all producers without a pro-
test as IL provided for in the law, will
Immediately be turned into the state
| treasury and there will be no way of
getting this money refunded except by
legislative enactment. Many produc
ers simply wrote in their checks or
IN their letters that they paid the tax
