MAY TAX EVERY CITIZEN $3.50
Both $500 Filing Fee and $3.50 Capt.
tatiOn Tax May Be Levied and Col
lected Unless Governor .VetOes Bill

lecteQ Unless OONcTHOT y CtOCS Dill
Tax Commissioner Jester, last week
announced that the So filing fee for
1922 was due on March Is but that he
had extended the time for payment
until April Is. On July l, if the new
law repeating the So filing fee became
effective, then in addition to paying
the SO fee before April Is every citi-
zen above 21 years of age who was
not exempt, would also have to pay
this new head tax of $3.50, making
$3.50 he or she would have to pay
within four months. Though Cover
nor Denney has made no statement
the belief appears to be the general
opinion that Governor Denney will
veto the bill repeating the So filing
fee and substituting a $3.50 capita
ton tax. The Governor has ten days
from the 18th in which to exercise
that authority. In addition to cOnsti-
tutiOnal questions involved by the new
bill, there are serious other details
that in the minds of many citizens
would warrant the Governor in veto
ing it. The reason, it is reported for
corporations refusing to pay the full
tax levied upon them is that under
advice of attorneys the corporations
have deducted from the bill submitted
by Mr.. Jester, all moneys they have
paid into the State on other taxing
items. The difference between the to-
tai of the bill submitted by Mr.. Jester
and these other taxing items has beer
paid by the corporations. Those who
have studied the filing fee law anC
the new bill passed by the Legislature
think that the issue is up to the At
torney General. The attorneys fo
the corporations make the claim, tina
their clients cannot be legally leviet
upon by Mr.. Jester unless his lev.
shows that other taxes the corpora
tiOns have paid to the State have beel
deducted. Another detail that wOul
interfere with the successful opera
ton of the $3.50 capitation tax,
that citizens of Kent and Sussex cOun
ty are already paying a head tax fo
, town purposes. 1t the new law shOul
become effective the same collector
and same machinery in Kent and Sus
sex county which collect this head ia
for county purposes would also hay
to collect the $3.50 capitation tax fC
, school purposes.

5000 INDIVIDUALS FAIL TO
PAY THE $500 FILING FEE
THIS AMAZING ANNOUNCEMENT
MADE BY COLLECTOR JESTER
To Delaware Legislature-41O Cor
pOratiOns Are Also ShOrt-Ask
For Law To Remedy Defects

Under a severe grilling by Repre-
sentative Nelson and Collins before
the lower House of the Delaware Leg
islature Monday, State Tax Commits
siOner NJ. Howard Jester said there
are 410 corporations and nearly 5000
individuals who have not paid the So
filing fee on the list of delinquents
who owe State taxes for school pur-
poses. Representative Nelson, at the
conclusion of the hearing, declared
that the investigation showed the non
collection of taxes from these corpora
tions and individuals in the State was
"rotten," and that Mr.. TESTERS defense
was nothing more than passing the
buck to the Attorney General" Mr..
Jester appeared before the House
Monday in response to a resolution of
Mr.. Nelson passed by the House last
Friday. Mr.. Jester claimed he had
gone as far as he could under the law
and read a lengthy letter from the At
torney General giving his views on the
situation generally and expressing a
willingness to share the burden of re-
spOnsibility for the non-collectiOn of
these taxes with Mr.. Jester. The
hearing closed without the leaders of
the House giving any intimation as to
what their next move, if any, would
be, although they freely expressed
/ themselves as not satisfied that al
has been done that should be toward
collecting the delinquent taxes. II
his letter, the Attorney General states
that he will begin he prOsecustion O1
these delinquents Immediately upOr
adjournment of the Legislature, hav
ing deferred action on the collection
Of corporation capital stock taxes hop
ing the present session would enac
measures to remedy certain defects il
the present law. The Attorney Gen
eral sets forth a portion of the pres
ent law on which the corporation
base their refusals to pay the take
demanded by Commissioner Jester
The corporations claim an exemptio
of certain items which Mr.. Jester wi
not cOncede. In his letter Attorne
General Townsend expressed a hop
the Legislature would change the
portion of the law and strengthen tn
g doubtful provisions.
