WANTS TAX PAID BY DISTRIBUTORS CLARENCE SCHOCK, OF TOWN, ASKED HOUSE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE TO RE- PORT OUT TALBOT BILL Declaring that when the Legisla- ture adopted the present system of gasoline tax collection from retail- ers it imposed an impossible task, Mr. Clarence Schock, of this boro, legislative chairman of the Inde- pendent Oil Men’s Association, ask- ed the House Ways and Means Committee to report out the Tal- bot bill providing for the collec- tion of gasoline .tax from distribu- tors. Mr. Schock pointed out that Pennsylvania is the only State which collects from the retail deal- er and that passage of the Talbot bill would mean tax collection from distributors instead of 25,000 re-, tailers. The Talbot bill would pro-| vide collections monthly instead of quarterly and would result in more complete returns than at present. State Treasurer Samuel S. Lewis, who is interested in the passage of the Talbot bill, said the bill would cause collection more expeditiously and that it would have a tendency to drive out gasoline bootleggers. He discussed the work involved in the present collection system and pointed out that the advantages in the Talbot bill. He urged persons interested to offer amendments to strengthen the bill and suggested that if necessary it could be rewrit- ten. rr Aree mn LANCASTER GENERAL ASKS STATE FOR $110,000 A bill to appropriate $110,000 to the Lancaster General hospital for the two years starting June 1, was introduced Wednesday by Senator John G.
