MOTOR FUEL PAYMENT McHenry county has been alloted $35,063 as its share of the Motor Fuel tax paid into the state treasury during July. Repeal Of Temporary Taxes Urged By "Watch Dog" Groups Organizations looking out for the pocket book of the American taxpayer are urging outright repeal by Congress of the 10 per cent war-time federal excise taxes on handbags, luggage, cosmetics, jewelry, fur garments, toiletries and many other articles. The argument they use is that these excise taxes were will be the example of a temporary tax becoming permanent. There is special concern over attempts at making a temporary transition from the retail to the manufacturing level. This is a time of salary raises, foreign aid, increased national debt and aid to foreign consumers. It should be a good time also to bring some of that aid to our home communities and their consumers. It has been estimated that repeal of such taxes will lift a burden of approximately $450,000,000 from the shoulders of American buyers, about $40,000,000 in Illinois alone. Many of the items which fall under these taxes are actually not luxuries at all in this year of 1964. The repeal of such taxes is now a plank in the Republican party platform, and "watch dog" organizations of our taxes believe it should also be in the Democratic party platform since these "sales" taxes hurt consumers regardless of party. This is an election year, an ideal time to make our wishes known before the fall campaign. there's ne substitute for MONEY IN THE BANK The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank authorizes commercial banks to pay a maximum interest rate of 4% on money left on deposit for at least one year.
