The local garage-owners and taxi
drivers ARE disturbed over the recent
government ruling that all cars used
In the livery service must be taxed.
t was thought that it would be pos
sible to pay the tax on stated numb
err of cars at the beginning of the
season, but this new ruling means
that a tax of ten dollars must be paid
on any car that is used in the taxi
service even though 1t is only used
for one trip and sold the next day.
The livery business of garage Is u.s.
ually not much Of money-making
proposition and Is done mostly as a
convenience for the people, and this
new Law only results in making an
Improbable business more unpro-
itable. II is the custom Of garages
to do livery work with the cars that
are being demonstrated and ii often
occurs that car Is sold before II has
made more than half a dozen trips in
the capacity 81 taxi. 1t is pos
sible than an adjustment viii later be
made by the government as this new
ruling certainly seems little unfair
to the men in the automobile game.
