Anent the notice in the “Watch- man” last week that movie patrons and theatre goers would be required to pay a tax on their admission tick- ets beginning November first, there has been more or less discussion as to whether the tax should be paid by the patron or by the proprietor. In order to make the matter clear to the pub- lic at large we herewith publish a portion of the act as follows: Section. One cent on each 10 cents or fraction thereof paid for admission to be paid by the per- son paying for such admission. One cent for each child under 12 years of age where the admission charge is made for such child. These taxes not to be imposed in the case of a place, of the maximum charge of admission to which is five cents. The law also requires all com- plimentary, press, billboard and free admissions of whatever na- ture, to pay the patron war tax, which must be paid by the patron according to the value of the seat or free ticket held. From the above it will be seen that there is no tax on places of amuse- ment where the maximum charge for admission is five cents. But if five and ten cents are charged then each ticket is subject to a tax of one cent, as the law specifies this fact clearly. The only exception made in the line of amusements of any kind is in the case of fraternal and church benefits, to which the tax does not apply. —H. C.
