Lindsay Issues. Injune- tion i n Cases Including North:Shore Towns Superior Judge William J. Lindsay of Chicago recently ruled 'the 2 per, cent occupational sales tax as appiied to water, gas and electricity is illegal and issued a. permanent injunction restraining. Knowlton L. Ames, Jr., state director of finance, from col- lecting the tax from 16 Cook county cities and villages that sought the re- straining order. Rule& Service is SoId These cases include the north shore towns that obtain the water from Lake Michigan, and also covers the Village of Winnetka revenue from the sale of electricity. The mu- nicipalitiles wvere represented by Vil- lage Attorney Frederick Dickinson, of Winnetka*. Judge Lindsay, in bis decision upheld the argument of At- torney Dickinson that the service in dispute does flot constitute a tangible commodity-that it is a service that is beîng sold. Give Oppoýsite Ruling On the saine day three down state Circuit judges sitting en banc in Springfield,' ruled the tax is legal. The Sangamon county case was brought in behaîf of 118 cities and villages owning and operating public utilities. The case of several private public utility companies appeaied some time ago mwas argued recentiy in the Su- preme court, and it is hoped, Attor- nev Dickinson, said, that a (lecision wiil tiot be reached until the Cook counity cases and the Sangamon county cases can be taken up for a final ad- judication of the question. In Wilmette the annual water sales amount to approximately $100,00. Thus theproposed sales tax, if held legal, would amount to about. $2,O0 per year. Lutheran Church Holds.
