'ALASKANS NOT TO PAY SALES
 TAX OF WASH.
Statement on Shipment Is Issued by Foster L.
 McGovern


 At the request of the Alaska Steamship Company, which has re- ceived number of reports from Alaskan business houses that the Washington State retail sales tax was being imposed upon goods ship ped from Seattle to the Territory, Foster L. McGovern, Manager of the Alaska Department, Seattle Cham Der of Commerce, took the matter up with the Washington State Tax Commission in order to clarify the situation.
 MT. McGovern, in communica- ton to The Empire says the follow ing interpretation, isued by the com mission, points out quite definitely that on the usual Alaskan shipments from Seattle, where the seller places the goods in the hands of the steam ship company, no sales tax shall be levied.
 The commissions statement says:
 "The 2 per cent retail sales tax does not apply to sales at retail when, as necessary incident to the contract of sale, the seller agrees to, and does deliver the goods to the purchaser at a point outside the State or is bound, under the terms of the contract of sale, to place the goods in the hands of a common carrier consigned to the buyer at 8 point outside the State. It is im- material whether the title to the goods passes, in such cases, upon delivery to the carrier or upon ar rival of the goods at their destina- tion.
 "The 2 per cent retail sales tax attaches in every case except one in which the seller is bound, under the terms of the contract, to start the goods upon an interstate journey. In the case of sale to a purchaser in the State, the fact that the goods delivered to him are intended to be transported to a point outside the State is immaterial; unless the sell CT, in accordance with the terms of the contract of sale, is bound to do something which irrevocably places the goods in the course of an inter- state movement there is no immun- ity from tax"
 McGovern says further:
 T shall appreciate your coopera- tion in seeing that this information is made available to business men of your town in order to obviate confusion or misunderstanding about the State sales tax as it applies to Alaska"
