Budd A Holt, assistant director of & the Federal A. A. A. Division of Mar- Headed by President A. F. E. Scheer, . ‘he Joint Northeast Conference of | keting and Marketing Agreements, Sitizens' Associations decided last | 53id an effort would be made to draw 1ight to sponsor a meeting of repre- entatives from every civic organiza- ion in the District for a discussion of he tax situation. Spurred by the business receipts tax and other recent levies, the group has igreed that “something must be done” bout District taxes. They hope that it of the proposed meeting will come 1 “scientific and workable” tax plan w#hich will be acceptable to District athorities and also eliminate the dis- - satisfaction caused by the present system. ‘The possibility of & sales tax was Hiscussed. Using figures compiled by the Greater National Capital Commit- e, Scheer pointed out that more than 2,000,000 visitors come to Wash- ington annually and spend approxi- mately $35,000,000. He said if a 1 or | 1 per cent tax had been in effect last year, taxes from this source alone would have relieved District residents of a goodly portion of the burden. Discussing real estate taxes, the ad- visability of homestead exemption was mentioned. The feeling of the group was that homestead property valued at less than $10,000 should be free from taxation. In the discussion of Maryland and . Virginia children going to District »- 8chools, an “unverified” charge was -~ made that eight schools in Montgom- - ory and Prince Georges counties had . been foroed to close for lack of pupils. A resolution was passed requesting s; that non-District pupils attending ~ Washington schools be required to pay an “adequate” tuition, N Submarine Patrol Work.
