CHICAGO, June 36. ;p Mr. Av
erage Cltlsen paya il M a month dur
ing the first five month of 1935 for
ste.te direct taxes.
His tax bill, established by reports
of tax collections from January I to
June 1 In 39 states, was 4 35 cents a
day or $0.45 for the five months. If
he owned an automobile, Mr. Citlwm
paid out even more. Besides the pur
chase of a license. If he operated a.
car he spent $10.03 up to June 1 In
gasoline taxes to the state, an aver
age of 7-5 cents a day.
It la likely, however, that Mr. Citi
zen didn't even notice he was spend
ing that much money, for he paid
the taxes In many waya, frequently
handing It to the sta only a few
cents at & time. He paid It prin
cipally on his real and personal prop
erty, his Income, gasoline for his car,
on alcoholic beverages and beer, and
as a sales tax. '
The rate paid during the first five
months was determined by averaging
the daily per capita state tax col
lections of 39 states.
The Individual state per capita to
tals were fixed on a basis of total
collections for the first five months
and the 10 30 population of the states.
For the nation, on the basis of
4 27 cents daily per capita and the
1030 census, the direct tax collections
of all 48 states amounted to 791.
616.504 from January 1 to June 1.
The dally total, on the same basis,
was S3. 2 4 2, 404.
For all 48 states, on the basis of
7.5 cents daily, car owners paid In
208.B40.895 during the first five
months 38 per cent of the total
state collections for all taxes. The
dally total, on the same basis was
1.079,145.
Of the 39 states, Colorado had the
highest dolly per capita figure for all
taxes with 13.1 centa. The lowest
waa New Hampshire with 1.3 cents.
Florida had the highest dally per oar
owner gas tax payment with 16.4
cents, and Rhode Island the lowest
with 2.8 cents.

collections include:

A. Ftlene, Boston merchant, told
the congress that the world must
adopt a system of distribution cap
able of supplying an outlet for mass
production.
The Bostonlan's plea for world
adoption of a voluntary chain system
of Independent stores for distribu
tion and purchase created a stir at
the congress and brought approval
from many leading European mer
chants. Filene cited as an example the
United States where he said "unsound
radicalism until recently failed to
get a hearing and the recent success
of radicals la basically due to a bad
distribution."
He said that unless production
found an adequate distribution, the
standards of living would drop, and
"the msses would not only listen to
agitators, but would tend to become
agitators themselves."
