As matters stoon on the hear- ing bench, the parade of indus- trial brass opposing the tax scemed to be more of a page out of a Chamber of Commerce brochure than anything else We understand one industrial lad slunk up here from Phila- { delphia with the idea of put- Ty tage as reek on Senate staged last week iting in a good word for the tax i Governor Leader's proposed) on his business - but when he discovered that he would have been just about the only one from industry appearing on the positive side of the fence, he beat a rather hasty and frus- trated retreat to the wailing arms of the City of Brotherly Love Unquestionably though the tax hearings tended to under- score an oft-made point, to wit: no tax is ever regarded as a justifiable or “fair” tax To those who have to pay the tax the levy almost always appears in the light of an un- | necessary, unjustified and evil i thing The classified income tax ad- vocated by Mr. Leader in the more tender days of his admin- istration this year is perhaps a classic example. That tax would have hit just about everyone who enjoyed a small pittance— yes, even the writer. The clamor was astounding’ and deafening - even to the hard lobed ears of Democratic stratgeists. Nary a squawk was heard from industry however. Now comes this latest prize - the manufacturers excise tax - and industry sets up a howl just about unprecedented, other than that whisk-y tax rebellion in the western part of the state during colonial days. Seemingly in this latest tax venture the main point has been somewhat overlook:d in- sofar as the negative side of the tax is concerned. This is the point: No other state has such a tax. Governor Leader, in alluding to the good points in favor of the levy, notes that Canada has had extremely good fortune with the tax. All very well up to this point Canada is an entire country. Pennsylvania is only one-forty.«ighth of an entire country To place the tax in effect on Pennsylvania industry ungues- tionably would build an econo- mic-industrial barrier difficult | to hurdle with other competing states. A nationwide manufact- urers excise tax placing all in the case of canada - is some- thing else. Pennsylvania isn’t Canada by far. Christmas Party ‘Scheduled For ‘Local Children M. S.
