Is prohibitive and unfair was made
public her. last night over th. signa-

The ten percent tax was levied with
no other purpose than to increase at
once the revenue and Dlace the oil
business on a more stable basis.
An increase in oil exports to a total
of 1.276504 tons during March and
April shows he says that the object
has been accomplished.
