TAX REFUND
IS REFUSED
Climaxing a long series of disputes between the Six Companies, Inc., and the state of Nevada, H. S. Pohe, chief clerk of the state tax commission refused to allow a large gasoline tax refund requested by the contractors on the grounds that the gasoline was not used on the highways of the state, but for industrial purposes.
The amount in question was $10,663.36, representing a number of claims involving over a quarter of a million gallons of gasoline.
Notwithstanding the fact that the state has made previous allowances of exemptions on the gasoline tax to Six Companies, Pohe said that he would not allow any more claims, either the present ones or any new ones, pending the settlement of cases before the Federal court involving other tax problems arising from the Six Companies' contention that they are exempt from the payment of state and county taxes.
