1Opinion of the CourtArterburn, J.

This appeal concerns the constitutionality of Chapter 345 of the Acts of the General *584Assembly of 1961, which provides for a tax of two (2%) per cent on the value of motor vehicles and mobile homes “ . . . in lieu of the ad valorem property tax . . .” To raise this question the appellants filed a complaint for a declaratory judgment and asked for injunctive relief against the defendant public officials to prevent the enforcement of the Act. The trial court rendered a judgment holding the Act to be constitutional and denied the injunctive relief asked.
