A test case will be submitted shortly thereafter, there-after, seeking repeal of the law and return of approximately $1,800,000 to be paid under it. Commenting on the law, Butler But-ler said, "Revenue from this tax apparently is scheduled to be used for purposes for which it was not originally intended. The measure was passed by the legislature to offset anticipated losses due to the $2,000 homestead exemption bill. The bill was vetoed and there was no reason- for the tax but we still have it."
