LAW ALUMNI DANCE THURSDAY NIGHT, APRIL 21 The third annual dance of Boston College Law School Alumni w-ill be College Girls Guild Retreat At Brighton Cenacle This Week WW Citing Boston and Somerille as fcaving the worst records in collating automobile excise taxes, arr.er.g 19 cities and towns examined, the Eofton Municipal Research Bureau, in a report, stale? that Bos-trn would about richer t-d localities pf the state about better off with efficient collation. At the end of 1937, Boston had failed to collect 29 percent of an auto excise tax levy of $300,576 for that year.

In the 19 large Massachu-iets communities which the bureau 16 4 percent of the total' levy wan uncollected. Widespread evasion and whole-lale delinquency in the payment ol the tax necessitates new legislation, the bureau urging passage nf various proposals now pending, including a bill introduced by Mayor Tnhin. "Tightering up collection procedure is the only fair method for the majority of car owners who pav their taxes. It also brings financial aid to cities and towns," the bureau declares. The bureau recommends two jnethnds which it says are successfully in 13 states to stimulate better collections.

One requires proof of auto excise tax payment betore a registration plate is issued for a motor vehicle. In Massachu-uetts this method has been opposed by owners of cars, the report points eiit. The large majority of owners vou'd be subjected to the inconvenience of submitting receipted bill? because of a minority of tax tvsriers. The other method proposed in pending legislation is to suspend or revoke registration after the excise tax has been delinquent over a specified period, such revocation being lifted when the delinquency is cleared up. 'Tor good results, the excise tax tnust be billed and collected more promptly than is now the case," the bureau concludes from a detailed anah-sis of Boston's "Much of the $1,384,000 owed en past levies will probably never be collected." Collection is made difficult by the mobility of motor vehicles and the case of sale and disposal.
