Twenty-one of them were enacted in the depression years of the 1930's. six in the 1940's, and six states have joined the parade since 1950. Most of the states which have enacted a sales tax law have retained it. Pennsylvania repealed its law (enacted in 1953) in 1954, but reenacted it in 1956. This again proves the old adage, "Once a tax law gets on the books, it stays." - Of the thirty-five states levying sales taxes, twenty-one also have state individual income taxes. Illinois has no state income tax. The rates of the thirty-five sales taxes now in effect very from % of 1 per cent in Indiana to 4 per cent in Washington and Pennsylvania.

Illinois' rate is 3 per cent with Va per cent earmarked for school aid purposes.

Michigan's 3 per cent tax produced over $363 million -- almost 40 per cent of its total tax revenues. Illinois, with a 3 per cent tax, obtained almost $375 million -- about 45 per cent of its total tax revenues. ment of these sales tax law^5 Ohio's 3 per cent tax produced over $265 million -- over 30 per cent of its total tax revenues.
