2. Many farmers feeling the
additional license fee revenue
would work against them by
state competition for lands,
loss of tax money in their area,
etc will close their lands to
public hunting thereby damp
ening interest in 'hunting and
bringing about a greater less
in staite revenue and conse
quently eliminating this com
petition.
'NET RESULT: Poorer and
less hunting, costing more.
3. Increase is indirect tax.
Businesses are failing. Some
are just quitting primarily due
to excessive taxation. Are we
going to hold the tax line or
are we going to promote busi
ness failures and unemploy
ment. Unemployment to most
would mean no hunting.
4. EMPLOYMENT: Distres
sed areas especially need stim
ulation, nott stagnation. Don’t
jeopardize revenue sources
this makes unemployment.
