Michigan.

Today I would like to discuss tax incentives. A recent study by the Pennsylvania Economic League ranks Michigan second highest among 11 states in total state and local taxes imposed on corporations. Taxes, in such major manufacturing competitors as Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware are more than 35 per cent lower than in Michigan. Though Michigan does compare slightly more favorably in other states in tax incentives than in financial incentives, the state does not use devices such as tax moratoriums or tax forgiveness to firms expanding, locating or relocating their facilities in Michigan. These tool have been more effectively used by certain states in capturing in the South.

Moratoriums or forgiveness, however, are not now constitutionally per- missable in Michigan and a constitutional amendment would be required were we to An especially effective incentive employed in several states involves tax differential advantages offered to expanding industry whereby the state or local unit of government excuses payment of a tax or a percentage of a tax for a specified number of years on newly developed facilities. The differential tax is an effective tool for luring industry if the proposal is properly developed, made discretional at the option of the local units of government, and offered to expanding existing industry, as well as new industry. It should be thoroughly analyzed as a possible promotional device in Michigan. Such a concept, nonetheless, is not without inequities, and careful study should be made of the economic impact on existing industry before it is developed into legislation. Michigan does allow certain tax inducements to industry at the present time.

For example, the value of certain kinds of short-lived tools, jigs, dies and fixtures is exempt from personal property tax in any Michigan county, by. state law. Michigan allows personal property to be valued on either the single assessment date (December 31) or by the 12- month average value. This offers to the seasonal business or industry an opportunity to obtain the lower valuation if their inventories fluctuate widely. Goods in public warehouses which give warehouse receipts and which goods are consigned to an out-of-state destination are exempt from personal property tax.

This is sometimes referred to as a "free port privilege." The value of water pollution and air pollution equipment is exempt from property tax. The purchase of such equipment is exempt from sales or use tax. Our recent study has uncovered 18 other possible tax incentives used by competing states to increase employment through industrial expansion. These range from various kinds of tax exemptions and tax credit to accelerated depreciations. We have thus recommended creation of a special legislative study committee to consider how these incentives can be used to promote business expansion in Michigan.

Next week, I will discuss the use of labor incentives to promote state economic growth. Cedar parking situation is clarified City commission action taken this week to restrict parking on the north side of Cedar Street was clarified today by Don Riley, chairman of the Sault safety commission. Riley said that the commission ruled that parking would be prohibited on the north side of Cedar between Greenough and the west boundary-of the Jefferson school grounds only. Parking is restricted from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m.

for the safety of the school children, Riley said. Subject of normal city parking directives, parking is allowed on the north side of Cedar from the west boundary of the school grounds to Ord Street. 1 ELKS CLUB 552 IS NOW SERVING LUNCHES Serving From LOUNGE OPENS AT 11A.M.

Marie Chippewa Indians have received notification that theyare now a federally recognized Indian-Organization entitled to federal organization under the Federal Reorganization Act of 1934.

Congressmen Philip Ruppe was recently informed of the move by a memo from the U.S. Solicitors' Office. Dorothy Gusler, Project Assistant to Ruppe's office, explained that the granting of official federal recognition is the first step leading to tribal and reservation status for the Sault Chippewa group. "The Federal Government now recognizes that the original bands of Sault Ste. Marie Chippewa Indians are the legal heirs of the original Chippewa Tribe which resided at Sault Ste.

Marie, and have the right to negotiate with the U.S. Government under the F.R.A. Act of 1934," Ms. Gusler said. The Original Bands of Sault Ste.

Marie Chippewa Indians was founded in 1953 and incorporated under a Michigan State Charter. There were originally six bands of Ojibway (Chippewa) Indians in the Sault area. Of these six, only one band, the Bay Mills Chippewas, has received federal recognition prior to this time. Efforts toward federal recognition of the five other bands began in 1972 when the late Fred Hatch, former president; consutlant Fred Hatch Jr. and Henry Olmstead, former tribal registrar of the Original Bands of Sault Ste.

Marie, traveled to Washton to negotiate with officials of the Department of the Interior and Bureau of Indian Affairs. Ms. Gusler said that future negotiations between officials of the Sault Chippewa Band, the Field Solicitors Office, and the BIA will include: of lands on Sugar Island already owned or in the process of being acquired by and for the community and for their use. This includes a title search to determine eligibility of these lands for federal trust status. recognition and verification of the present membership roll, along with certification of the blood by the Secretary of the Interior.

acceptance of the new constitution by members of the Original Bands of Sault Ste. Marie Chippewa Indians through an election. "Upon completion of the necessary actions and their acceptance by the federal government and all concerned, the of the Interior will proclaim Tribal Status for the Sault Chippewas, along with the creation of a federal reservation to be held in trust for eligible members and their heirs," Ms. Gusler added. Among the benefits for those eligible for tribal and reservation status will be assistance in health, education, welfare, employment, civil rights, social services, and special programs such as federal loans and grants especially designed for federally recognized Tribal Communities.

The remaining five bands of the Sault Chippewa Tribe are located in Sault Ste. Marie, DeTour, St. Ignace, Manistique, and Munising. Tribal headquarters are located at the Chippewa Indian Development Center, 206 Greenough, Sault Ste. Marie.
