CALIF. GRANGER
SAYS SALES TAX
Ll
A. P. Williams of Gazelle, Calif.,
a member of the agricultural com
mittee of the state grange of Califor
nia, was a visitor In Med ford yester
day In the Interest of purchasing
Hereford bulls, and while here, ex
pressed his views on the sales tax now
In effect In California.
Mr. Williams stated that the farm
he operates In Gazelle was taxed $800
two years ago, and this fall, he was
only required to pay a tax of $460,
the result of the sales tax now In ef
fect In California.
"It has been a big help to us," Mr.
Williams said, "and I believe the far
mer Is the last one who should fight
this tax."
Mr. Williams said the agricultural
committee of the grange considered
the measure at the state convention,
and reported to the general body that
the grange should not abolish this
tax. As a result, no action was taken
against It, he said.
"It's the best tax we've got at this
time", Mr. Williams said. "I don't
believe in a tax on necessities, but
there seems no way of segregating
them. What might be necessities to
one, would not be to another."
The schools are maintained mostly
by the state in California, Mr. Wil
liams pointed out, adding that the
sales tax had made It possible to con
duct the schools on the return from
the tax.
