During the second half of this decade, tax regime due to assume deep reforms, with origin indifferent fields. New measures had their origin in national jurisdiction and made provincial politics change towards a new regime that had to unify taxes on consumption and sales.

Since 1938 the government of Amadeo Sabattini produced a tax reform according to its agricultural economic policy, based on the argument that land should be of those who worked on it. According to these ideas and to avoid latifundia a progressive and proportional territorial tax was imposed to rural property in order to prevent owners absentism. Thus, tax pressure on companies and individuals with directories abroad that were exercising quality of absent was in-creased. In addition, it was sought to encourage fiscal policies to facilitate the subdivision of large domains through a reform on inheritance taxes.
