the same time, except as otherwise provided in this part, the tax

shall be paid for each according to the rates severally prescribed.

(1) Liability for tax

The payment of a special tax imposed by this part shall not

exempt from an additional special tax the person carrying on a

trade or business in any other place than that stated in the

internal revenue district.

(2) Storage

Nothing contained in paragraph (1) shall require a special tax

for the storage of liquors at a location other than the place

where liquors are sold or offered for sale.

(3) Definition of place

The term "place" as used in this section means the entire

office, plant or area of the business in any one location under

the same proprietorship; and passageways, streets, highways, rail

not be deemed sufficient separation to require additional special

Certain persons, other than the person who has paid the special

tax under this part for the carrying on of any business at any

tax, the same business at his new location for the remainder of the

taxable period for which the special tax was paid. To secure the

right to carry on the business without incurring additional special

tax, the successor, or the person relocating his business, must

accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary.

The regulations of the Secretary under this chapter respecting
