JEWELRY TAX IS DEPLORED John Bulger Disappointed That it is Not Relieved Sales Bejng Lest In South Disappointment was expressed by John Bulger, local jeweler, this morning, at the failure of minister of finance to abolish or reduce the 25 pe. cent luxury tax on Jewelry In the budget Mr. Bulger, who returned yesterday from a business trip to Vancouver and Seattle, states that jewelers in the south were hoping that there would be an amelioration of the tax, the existence of which, they are con vinced, has been slowing up their business and will continue to do .so. Dally, he .said, sales were bein'r lest because prospective purchasers balked at the luxury tax. Jewelry sales were also slow In Seattle, Mr. Bulger found, but because of a gen end slowing up of buying at high prices. On Jewelry In Seattle there Is a 20 per cent tax In addition to 8 per cent sales tax and 3 per cent token tax general on all commodities. Mr. Bulger noted that prices for meals were considerably higher In Seatt'e than here but hotel rates were reasonable. The theatre admission price is 80c. Hotel. . . arrivals R. W.
