AS three full-fare tickets are
required to take a couple there
and back. a S per cent round-trip
reduction is eliminated. There is
no thrift advantage of buying the
round trip here, where the Is per
cent Federal tax is applied. One
straight fare and a half fare total
$l95.75. The United States Gov
ernment tax is $29.35: This is
the saving effected by buying the
family plan return tickets in
Mexico. But the airlines won't
tell you about 1t. You have to ask,
Although the Internal Revenue
Bureau comedies this tax-free
return purchase in Mexico is legal,
some OF the airlines quote an In
ternal Revenue ruling Of last
September to justify policy of
not becoming involved" in such
a deal If they can help 1t. In
reality, the September 2 ruling
frightened up on the practice of
ordering tax-free tickets by mail
from points outside the United
States. It was designed to plug
q loophole in a law that has
proved difficult to enforce.
So if'you have bought round

without questioning the tax. 1t
cost you an extra $50 and the
Government got the "windfall." F"
The airline made no extra profit.
For a different reason. travel
agencies may forget" to mention
the tax saving. They receive a
commission on all the air travel
they sell. They would halve the
income from almost every sale If
they suggest purchase of the re-
turn ticket anywhere but at their
ofnces. Normally. however. the
traveller saves money by buying
round trips. ..
Rail Cuts Offset Tax-The tax
on rail transportation from Wash
ington to Mexico City works out
differently. Although railroads
haven't adopted the airline fam
ily-plan. the reduction granted in
buying round trip is in the
neighborhood of Is per cent on
coach fares. This more than off,
sets any saving by buying two
one-way tickets. even If one is
tax-free.
Railroad fares to Mexico City
will 60 up slightly tomorrow. but
these pre-rise figures will serve:
Round-trip coach travel costs.
$l16. One way is $64.31. First
class, the one-way fare is 1924,
with about $25 extra for lower

The round trip to Puerto Bar

tickets piece-meal, here and in

such tactics makes the deal OF
doubtful value. Among other
things, it would entail buying a
