COMMISSIONER GRAHAM CALLS
ATTENTION TO A RECENT
ACT OF LEGISLATURE.
THE TAX MUST Be COLLECTED
The Law Imposes a Fine Of Five DOL
lars Per Day on Every Glnner who
Operates Without License.
Raleigh.


AS there are a number of cotton
,ginners who have not complied with
the law requiring them to take out
license to operate, Major w. A. Gra-
ham, Commissioner of Agriculture,
has issued notice warning delinquent
ginners.
Major Graham's notice of warning
follows:
There are a number Of cotton GIN
ners in the state who have not yet
applied for license to operate a cot
ton gin during this season. Their at
tention is called to the fact that the
last season of the legislature passed
law requiring that all ginners make
application for license to the Commits
sioner of Agriculture and that such
ginners collect for the next two
years a tax of twenty-five cents per
bale on all cotton ginned, remitting
this monthly to the Department OF
Revenue.
THE law imposes fine Of gve dof-
lars per day on all ginners who op-
crate without securing state licenses.
Therefore, it is directed that gin
ners who have not yet secured their
license to operate write the Commits
sioner Of Agriculture requesting a
form Of application for license which
should be filled out and forwarded
Immediately.
