According to an announcement
by W. J. Dickey, President, the
Talks to Students Committee for
Corporate Income Tax
Collections Increase
State Revenue Commissioner
Peyton S. Hawes called a large
increase of 19.3% in corporate
income tax collections one of
the most encouraging factors in
April state revenue collections,
declaring the increase “indica
tive of Georgia’s growing econo
my.”
In issuing this statement about
April collections, up over-all
11.7% by an increase of $7,-
462,097.11, Commissioner Haw
es stated, “as we predicted in
previous months, the recovery
of corporate profits in Geor
gia has now begun to reflect in
monthly corporate income tax
collections, and Ibelieve that this
tax category, in its second con
secutive month of a high percen
tage of increase, is now well
established.” The corporate in
come tax for the immediately
preceding month of March re
gistered a 34.7% increase. For
the fiscal year to date, corporate
income taxes are up 5.7%.
The Commissioner reported
total revenue collections of s7l
-for the month of Ap
ril. This brings total collec
tions for the first 10 months of
the current fiscal year, through
April, to $621,853,459.90, an in
crease of $64,525,649.66, or
11.6%.
The Commissioner pointed out
that once again the decrease in in
dividual Income tax collections
(21.2%) reflected his depart
ment’s concerted efforts to is
sue refunds in a comparable pe
riod of time to the federal go
vernment. “This department
realized that our delays in pre
vious years in making our re
funds were a source of taxpayer
complaints and irritation. The
last two years we have stepped
up our efforts in the Income
Tax Unit in this direction, and
our success can be noted in our
loss of revenue as a result of
these efforts.”
1969 includes Chairman, Mrs.
Dan Moore, Homer Sharp, and
Charles Tinsley. Each welcomes
your suggestions for future ven
tures for benefitting their
students. Each welcomes indica
tion of your interest or concern
with individual students’ pro
blems.
The Newton County Mental He
alth Association is grateful that
you support the Covington-Newton
County United Funds, Inc., of
which it is a participating agency
all year long.
With the exception of indivi
dual income taxes, all sources
of revenue for April were up.
“That our sales tax collec
tions that month reached a 14.9%
increase, continues to indicate
that Georgia has a healthy eco
nomy,” was Commissioner Haw
es* comment about the most pro
fitable state tax.
The Commissioner noted an un

is obvious that in the light of the
wine tax rate change passed by
the Legislature and effective July
1, all the wine manufacturers are
buying up large quantities of wine
tax stamps in order to save mon
ey later.”
Wine tax rates were changed by
law from .20? to .40? a gallon and
from .50? to SI.OO on Georgia
table wine and Georgia fortified
wine, respectively. Foreign wine
rate changes were from SI.OO to
$1.50 a gallon on table wines
and from $2.00 to $2.50 on forti
fied wines.
