The honorary secretary (Bro. F. Petrie) • said he had been in correspondence with the 'Stamp ’Department on the matter, but apparently nothing could be done to avoid liability for the tax. So long a«s the choir paid fees to soloists appearing concerts amusement tax had to be paid. On the other hand the Operatic Society wat? permitted to pay a producer and an orchestra and could escape the payment of .the tax as the producer and orchestra were not classed as performers. .Member, s agreed that this was an anomaly, and it was suggested that) member of ParlianicvAt) for Invercargill should be asked »to endeavour to secure relief from the taxation which had cost ithe choir )£)22 during the last season. Th e president, Bro. R. S. Mc]lines, eaid it would- be difficult to induce the Government t {) relinquish any sources of revenue at the present time.
