tax referendum in the interest of a united war effort 0 sf this letter is published for the information of the public and especially the qualified utah voters who signed petitions referring the proposed special tax on chain stores laj to a vote of the people at the general election nov 3 1942 february 14 1942 mr A D stewart president UTAH RETAIL GROCERS association INC salt like lake city utah dear mr stewart the retail chain stores of utah have authorized me to place before your association a proposal for cooperation in a joint action in connect tion with the referendum on senate bill 44 the chain store tax under existing utah law this issue will be voted upon by the people at the general election on november 3rd ard next we assume that your association as the publicly acknowledged sponsor of S B 44 will undertake a campaign to persuade the public to vote for your bill and since S B 44 is aimed solely at chain stores and would be a sentence of slow death for chain stores our members have no alternative but to defend themselves to the best of their ability before the barof bar of public opinion in arranging for the passage of S B 44 you undoubtedly believed that it was of great importance to the competitive interests of your members we may also assume that the qualified utah voters who signed referendum petitions did so in the belief that a complete airing of the facts culminating with a vote by the people of utah would be in the public interest we fully acknowledge that our members have a life and death interest in the decision of the voters however we cannot help but believe that all of these interests in m this issue have become less important since december 7 1941 there is only one issue now confronting us as americans today the necessity of conducting an all out defense of our nation in its hour of greatest Ico jeopardy pardy at a time when american soil is under invasion and american lives fives are being sacrificed dinits in its defense we believe as we are confident that you do that in a period of such grave national peril we should submerge our internal differences and meet the emergency that faces us the present war is total war it is a conflict in which all of us have a place and which der demands nand of each of us the utmost in time money and energy it i is a struggle in in which it would be criminal to do less than our be best st both independent and chain retailers have bave an important task in this war we are depended upon to assure the steady flow of available supplies so that production may proceed unhampered and civilian morale be maintained at a high level our contribution is distribution we are in the army of supply for these reasons reabon we propose that your utah retail grocers association unite with us in a petition to honorable herbert B maw governor of utah requesting that he place before the utah legislature if a special session meets prior to august I 1 ast 1st st 1942 a recommendation that the legislature act to suspend the vote upon S B 44 until a general election following the cessation of hostilities counsel assure us that this is entirely feasible and that the rights of your association those of the public and of ourselves will be in no way injured by the postponement acting upon the assumption that your membership would prefer as I 1 ours does to be free during the time of trial ahead to devote full aften attention to the war effort we are submitting for your consideration an aa I 1 opinion covering the quoi question tion of the legislatures constitutional authors author ity to arder the poa postponement tp together with a suggested measure to accomplish this objective A copy of this letter with attachments is being forwarded to to governor maw for his information and because this proposal has been substantially ly inspired by his many splendid statements regarding the necessity for complete undivided effort in marshalling all of utah facilities for the job of winning the war this letter 1 is being pub published lishe 4 PA a it paid advertisement so that the c utah citizens dij in V every CO county anty of the state who signed referendum petitions on S 5 44
