SEATTLE. Aug. 24 (,P Six
Seattle travel agencies announc
ed today the opening of an office
in Canada for the sale of tickets
for travel In the United States.
They explained frankly in a
three-column newspaper adver
tisement that the arrangement
sidesteps the 15 percent U. S.
tax on air, rail and ship tickets.
The advertisement cited Can
ada's repeal of the wartime 15
percent travel tax and said:
"Under our American law,
however, U. S. citizens may le
gally purchase transportation
tax-free in Canada, even though
the transportation is used wholly
within the United States.
"This sluatlon has brought
about a fantastic increase in
sales of American travel tickets
in Canada. , .and a correspond
ing loss of sales here. Thousands
of Seattleites are buying their
tickets in British Columbia be
cause the inequity of our law
makes it to their advantage to
do so. The situation can be rem
edied only by an act of Congress.
"We have Individually and col
lectively petitioned our elected
representatives in Congress to
take such action. Results none."
