the machines and adding that
cities which did not collect taxes
on the devices would be refund
ed 50 peicent of the tertitoria)
tax collected within their limits.
At that time, the city abolished
its tax to take advantage of the

and another installment is du
at the end of i his half yea , not

status of the refund. Mrs. Per
kins has had no word at all from
the treasurer.
