Professor Le CHAIN STORETAX INDEPENDENTS DENVER, June 8.—The Colorado Supreme Court today handed down a decision of far-reaching importance threatening possibly to upset both national and_ state legislation proposing discriminatory taxation of chain stores. This decision holds that a group of some thirty-five independently owned auto supply stores operating under the Gamble-Skogmo franchise come under the provisions of the Colorado Store License or Chain Store Tax Act. The decision holds that the use of the GambleSkogmo name, uniform store front, and contractual relations for supply_ ing of merchandise all give GambleSkogmo Inc. control within the meancision of the lower courts. State Treasurer Charles M. Armstrong expressed the opinion that all voluntary and cooperative chains and oil stations which use a common store design and name may come under the chain store tax by reason of this decision; Thus such organization as Red & White Stores, the IGA Stores, and other so-caled voluntary chains may have to pay the graduated chain store tax in Colorado. If the principle is sustained such organ izations will have! to pay in twentyone other states that have chain store taxes.
