Times WASHINGTON Bureau.
1892 NCtO York AreUUe

WASHINGTON, May 9.-India-
mas automobile and inheritance tax
payments to the Federal government
have dropped greatly, probably in
part as a reflection of the cut in
both forms of taxation in the 1926
Federal tax law.
The State paid $5,937,659 to the
Government as taxes on autos and
auto parts for the first nine months
Of the 1926 fiscal year. This was
at the old 5 per cent rate, until
March 20, 1926, when the cut to 8
per cent became effective. 1t paid
only S2,796,313 for the nine months
Of the 1927 fiscal year ending March
81 or less than half the 1926 pay
ments. This was at the rate Of 3
per cent.

Less Manufacturing

Because the drop in revenue Is
considerably larger than the per-
centase drop in the rate of taxation.
and because a very small part of
the 1926 collections were at the 8
per cent rate. it is evident that the
decrease in taxes reflects some de-
crease in manufactures. National
collections dropped from SSS,000,000
in 1926 to S46,OOO,OOO in 1927.

Sharp Decline

The drop in inheritance taxes is
even greater. from $1,029,S1S for the
1926 period to s396,1S9 for the 1927
period. This is a decrease of al
most 200 per cent. whereas national
payments decreased only from $97,-
100000 to sS1 ,O92 900. or less than
20 per cent.
Indiana cigar and tobacco manu-
Eacturers also paid considerably less
taxes the first nine months of 1927
than during the same period in 1926,
due TO a general decrease in rates
by the 1926 tax law. The cigar tax
dropped from 1881 900 to $4,000.
and the manufactured tobacco col
lections from s57,36S. to $52, 500.
