GAS TAX SUIT
RULING IS Due
Decision in Back Assess.
ment May Come Down
at Any Time
The Timcs-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Jan. Q. - The de-
partment of revenue is anxiously
awaiting the supreme courts de-
cision in its suit to compel the
City of Winston-Salem to pay
back gasoline tax, and it is be-
lieved that the court will issue
an opinion on the controversy at
an early date.
Besides Winston-Salem, the
cities of Charlotte, Durham and
High Point have also refused to
pay the state gasloiue tax of six
cents a gallon, but the pending
suit is directed only against Win
Ston-Salem, a gentleman's agree
ment having been made with the
other cities that they will abide
by the decision Of the supreme
court.
Under the provisions of the
1881 revenue statute, all state,
county and city agencies are re-
CURED to pay the levy. AS for
the state, it amounts to taking
money out of one pocket and
putting it in another, but the
cities involved in the controversy
contest the right of the state to
force municipal governments to
pay the tax.
The 1881 law allows Only for
the exemption of gasoline used
exclusively in airplanes, and
grants refunds on gasoline con-
Sumed by tractors Or stationary
engines used by farmers and
manufacturers, on gasoline used
in fishing boats and on gasoline
used in mining machinery.
The revenue department does
not keep an account of the con-
sumption of gasoline in each in
dividual county Or city of the
state, since the states tax is col
lected from the distributors, and
what happens to the gasoline aft
Ell it reaches the retailers is OF
no concern.
Similarly. no record by coun-
ties of the automobile license tax
collections are kept. While there
are 40 offices outside Of Raleigh
where the licenses can be bought,
many persons in the cities and
towns where the sub-offices are
located order their licenses from
the state highway department
here.
Since the revenue from these
sources is not apportioned to the
counties according to the amount
of revenue collected in each
county, no such check is kept, as
it would not be Of any especial
value, and would entail consider
able expense. However, the state
is able to check up on the amount
of gasoline used by the four
cities which are refusing to pay
the tax merely by keeping track
of all the gasoline entering the
state and consigned to the re-
spective municipal governments.
None of this data, however,
was available at this time, as
there will be no particular reason
to compile it until after the su-
preme courts decision is render
ed and the state learns whether
Or not it can force the City of
Winston-Salem to pay the six
cents levy and collect on other
taxlesS gasoline bought by the
city. ..'.~ .-..

AGRICULTURE
BIG FEATURE
IN NEXT FAIR
Century Of Progress
Soon Ready to Open
at Chicago
BY SAM KNOTT d, .

United HreSS StaH
CHICAGO, March 7.-uP)'-
Agriculture, the basic industry o.
America, is accorded one OF the
three major positions at a GEN.
tury of progress exposition which
is almost ready 20 open.
The Agriculture building, done
in the modern style charac'eristic
of the 1888 "World's Fair ar
chitecture, was the first exhibit
building completed on the expo
sition grounds which spread Tor
miles along the Lake Michigan
shore. 49,.
Windowless, the building stands
like a futuristic revelation upon
man-made Northerly Island, south
of the Adler Plantearium, when
is one of $20,000,00O worth OF
permanent structures which make
the exposition grounds the nat
ural" place for a fair celebrating
mankind's most amazing 10O years
of progress. o, A.
exposition idea original, it was
realized thtat world interest could
not be created in an old style
competitive "row on row" exhibit.
The agriculture show is, therefore,
different. =,
Take one of the simplest exhib-
its. that on soy beans, as an eX-
ample. In former fairs, county or
international, the plan was to Of
fer prizes for the best exhibits.
Under this old plan, hundreds,
perhaps thousands of soy tean ex,
hibits, all very nearly alike, would
have been shown at Century OF
Progress. ,.,.
There being no competition,
there will be only one soy bean
exhibition at this fair. That one
will. however, be complete. 1t
will not only show soy beans. but
the history of soy beans; not just
what things are made from soy
beans, but chow" they are made.
Instead of displaying products,
agriculture will display processes.
1t will show in action how limo;
leum, explosives. soap, food and
1876 other products are made
from soy beans, which have been
grown in Manchuria for 5000
years, but are comparatively a
new thing in this country. :
Men in charge of the agrlcul-
ture department were busy today
planning the popcorn exhibit.
They disclosed that if all the pop
corn to be shown were popped, it
would fill the agriculture building
(6OOx100 feet) to a depth OF 90
inches. And there are no dupllca-
tions of exhibits. -.
