Changeover In Sales Tax Takes Place Smoothly Pennies that seemed destined for sales tax suddenly detoured into the clutches of parking meters or small children yesterday, as Hag- erstown got acquainted with the new sales tax rules. Stores and restaurants reported very little confusion, but some absent-mindedness.

Bank clerks said that it was too soon to cause any change in the demand for pennies, but restau- rants in particular were expected to find change-making a lot simpler. In general, clerks were less ab- sent-minded than the customers. AH of the clerks had well briefed in the new regulations, and firmly turned down the pennies offered by customers who came in to purchase a sandwich, pack of cigarettes, or magazines at local stores. Such small purchases, beginning yesterday, were freed from sales tax. However, the changes fall in- to two groups: Retail purchases of 50c and un- der aren't taxed at all any more.

That means, in effect, that no purchase requires payment of one cent sales tax, inasmuch as two cents is required for anything be- tween 5lc and $1.00. Further, restaurant meals, no matter how expensive, are free from the sales tax now. Before this, the- only food that was tax-free was that which was taken out of establishment for consumption. Lots of local folks appeared un- certain about soda fountains. The comptroller's office came up with the statement that soda fountain drinks, like milk shakes, are exempt from tax, but soft drinks in unopened containers are taxable.

However, the sales tax applies to alcoholic beverages, when one persons buys more than KOc worth of drinks at one time. That means that local eating places with li- censes to serve drinks will still have to collect and report pennies on such oales.
