Is
Less Than Year Ago
Eleven Hundred Now Listed
AT Employment Office AS
Against Twenty-Six Hun lred
Last Year-Seven Hundred Of
Applicants Are Women.

In an interview with a Globe In
dependent reporter, D. Paul Shil-
ling, of the local employment office,
advised that the situation of unem-
ployment in and around Hagers-
town has definitely improved dur
ing the fiscal year June 1916 to June
1947.
Although good jobs are becoming
more scarce all the time, the unem-
ployment list, which stood at 5000
at the end of the 1916 fiscal year,
today has been reduced to HOO APP
proximately 700 of these are women.
Mr.. Shilling stated that expansion in
local industries is very slow at
present and the only jobs available
are those occurring through vacancies
in standing jobs.
Of the 1900 veterans who were
drawing Servicemen's readjustment
allowance a year ago, only 200 re-
main on the lists. They are largely
vets who have been discharged
within the last month or so, and are
expected to be off by September,
when large number will enter
schools.
In most areas the unemployment
problem is still serious one, but
in Hagerstown and vicinity it is
being kept well within bounds. Mr..
Shilling attributes this record to the
fact that employers are reporting
vacancies promptly, and the en-
ployment office staff is cooperating

Sales Tax Notes

For a bit of Qualification, the
Maryland Retail Sales Tax Act is
divided into two parts. The first is
the sales tax and the second the use
tax.
The sales tax contemplates the
collection of two per cent, at the
time sale is made, and the real
purpose of the use tax is to protect
as far as possible the Maryland
merchants and manufacturers SO
that it will not be possible for
Marylanders to go into adjoining
states and purchase the same ma
terial and have it tax free.
The rate is exactly the same in
both cases-two per cent. This is a
rather brief description of the two
laws.

This should be good news for the
Riddles, their parents and CONNECTION
statesmen in Maryland. Under a new
ruling by Edward F. Engelbert, at
torney for the Maryland Retail
Sales Tax Division, ice cream bars,
popsicles and prepared sundaes are
not taxable for consumption off the
premises. However, if you consume
them on the premises they are tax
able. All beverages, such as milk
shakes and soft drinks, if taken off
the premises, are taxable.
''The impression seems to have
gotten out" said Mr.. Engelbert,
"that beer and liquors taken off the
premises are not taxable That is in
correct. Such beverages are tax
able, either on or off the premises. "
Representatives of the Comptrol-
ler's Office now are going through
the various sections of the State in
an endeavor to learn what difficult
ties are being encountered by merch-
ants in their handling of the sales
tax.
These representatives have been
instructed to aid and assist tax pay
ers in every way possible and clarity
the rules and regulations as they re-
late to different kinds of business.
They report that in most cases the
law is functioning with little con-
fusion either on the part of the
merchant or tax payer.
Some merchants have not taken
out a license and reports on these
cases indicate that in most instances,
| the reason for their failure to do so
is ignorance of the provisions of
the law
The law provides certain penal
ties for noncompliance with its
provisions and any refusal on the
part of an individual to take out a
license and collect the tax will bring
about prompt action by the Comp
troller.
