10    person  shall make the same reports and returns, pay the same
11    taxes and be subject to all other provisions of this  Article
12    relating to manufacturers and importing distributors.
13        Nothing in this Article shall be construed to require the

30    immediately pay the fees  together  with  any  penalties  and
31    interest thereon in an amount not to exceed the limits of the
