DOUBLE CROSSING
THE CONSUM MER
Consumer Organizations
Are Already Making An
Appearance.

One chain system alone will be
forced to pay in the neighborhood of
100000 annually in additional taxes
Especial class taxes) to the state of
Louisiana as a result of the chain
store tax recently established in that
state. The chain tax now in effect In
Pennsylvania forces the same chain
to pay upwards of $1,0OO.OOO year
in additional taxes of similar char
acter to that stata This is the PEN
atty which the chain must pay for
serving American consumers too
efficiently through modern, thrifty
merchandising methods.
Politicians have found source of
lucrative revenue in class taxation
against chain stores and are making
the most of 1t under the old guise of
attacking "big business" when as
matter of fact 1t is the consumer
who is being soaked again. The next
step will be class tax for organ
lied" independents. Carefully COM
piled statistics based on an invest1-
cation by a large insurance company
show conclusively that the $1S-a-
week laborer or clerk, who owns no
taxable real or personal property, al
ready pays on the average of SIG
year in hidden taxes. The great ma
jcrity of consumers are persons OF
moderate income, and chain store
taxes will have to be passed on to
them because, as it is, the chains
only retain. on the average. about
two to three cents out of every dol
lar of merchandise sold.
One of these days the worm will
turn. Consumer organizations are
already making an appearance. The
voice of the consumer will be heard.
and 1t will not sound pleasant to the
ears of the tax-grabbing politicians.
