Alaska Ran Fur
Exempt Retailers
Excise Tax Law
Having taken the stand that
fur garments mad'* of reindeer!
and hair seal could not possibly[
be considered luxuries in a cli
mate such as our. and should not
come with*n the scope of the new
revenue tax law, the N. W. Al
aska Chamber of Commerce ask-!
< d Delegte Dimond to contact j
the proper authorities in Wash
ington and negotiate to the ef- [
feet that fur garments made out,
of reindeer or hair seal, which!
would include our popular muk- •
Inks, should not be taxed. The1 ■
results were most gratifying in. i
asmuch as the Commissioner of!
Internal Revenue directly from,!
Washington issued a ruling stat-1
ing that people from the north
are entitled to this exception and!
replied as follows:
“The Bureau holds that par
kas, ants, leggings mukluks and!
gloves, worn by people of the j (
North as protection from the |
cold, made wholly of deer, rein-| i
deer, moose caribou or hair seal|
[skins, cured with the hair on but
'not dyed or processed to imitate!
the fur of other animals are nct|
'articles made of fur on the hide! [
| or pelt within the meaning of|
[section 2401 of Chapter 19 of the!
Code, and retail sales thereof
! are not taxable. If, however,!
such an articles is decorated or
pined with materials commonly!
; or commercially known as fur
I and such fur is the component!
material of chief value in the;
! articles the sale thereof at retail |
[ is subject to the 10 percent tax
i on furs imposed by section 2041
i of the Code.
Articles made of walrus ivory
j are not subject to the retailers’
excise tax imposed by section
2400 of Chapter 19 of the Internal
Revenue Code, as added by sec-!
tion 552 of the Revenue Act of
1941, unless they are articles i
commonly or commercially!
known as jewelry. Jewelry, in j
general, includes articles which:
are designed to be worn on the:
person or apparel for the pur
pose of adornment and which in
accordance with custom and or
dinary usage are worn so as to
be dislayed, such ns rings, chains
brooches, bracelets, cuff buttons,
necklaces, earrings, strings of
beads, etc. Paper weights, crib
bage boards, and pen holders
made of walrus ivory are not)
