The merchants' committee suggested that they Merchant's license be changed from *10.00 on the first thousand dollars stook to $25.00 on the first thousand and $2.60 for each additional thoueand; that lumber yarde should be included under the general head of merchants; that de- partment stores and druge stores also be included under the merchants lioense; and if the department stores should be put in a separate classification to define a de- partment store ae carrying ten or more different lines of goods instead of three or more. Mr. Gardner, of the Tip Tap Grooery Company appeared before the Commission and asked that the tax on rolling stores be reduced from $50.00 to 25.00 on each such rolling store instead of increased to WOO in each store as proposed in the ordinance. Lir. Green, representing the Real Estate Board, asked that the tax on land developments both inelde and outside the city limits be taken out of the ordinance and also eubmitt ed a schedule on Real Estate Agents and Brokers license whereby the Agency paid a li- cense of $36.00 and was permitted to do house renting and act as a loan agent without the payment of two additional licenses for the additional privileges. Mr. E. B. Elliott asked that sign painters and bulletin board service plants be taxed a flat rate instead of by the schedule proposed in the ordinance, as the schedule as now pro- posed would impose an unreasonable license. After some discussion the License Tax Ordinance was referred to the Oity Manager and the Director of Finance to make changes as directed by the Commission, and it was announced that the proposed license ordi- nance would come up for passage at an adjourned meeting on Fr•iday,September 28th.
