FLORIDA CITY LEVIES
TEST "INCOME" TAX
FOR PUBLIC WORKS

Chicago (HNS). In another exam
pie of the search by municipalities for
new sources Of revenue. Fort Myers
Fla, has levied tax Of one-hflf OF /
per cent on gross receipts of every
person, firm or business operating
within the city. The tax will be col
lected over test period of 60 days to
determine its productivity.
The new levy, in the nature of an
income tax, was adopted by the city
council on the basis of recommends
tions which a special citizens advisory
committee had submitted on methods
of financing postwar public works
program, the international City Man
ayers Association reports
The Fort Myers action, the associa-
ton said, is similar to that taken by
Philadelphia in levying / z per cent
income tax (reduced To per cent Il
year ago) which has produced some
SS7 900. 900 since February, 1910, and
to the action of Detroits city council
more recently in levying a tax on gross
receipts of privately-OWned public
utilities. expected To produce up Ia
S14,000,000 annually for postwar i'm
provement purposes
Half the revenue from the tax will
be used to supplement property tax
collections, the other half to make up
Il postwar public works and employ
ment security reserve fund.
