Railroads Win Rehearing Refusal in Tax Case

United States Supreme Court refused a rehearing in the case of Louisville and Nashville and Atlantic Coast Line railroads lessees of the Georgia Railroad against Comptroller General W A Wright. The court ruled the roads owe state county and city taxes on 1 500 000 of Western Railway of Alabama stock, held by the Georgia Railroad. If upheld, state taxes with 7 percent interest would total about 180 000 to 200 000, and five years of taxes would total about 606 000. City and county taxes in Augusta and Richmond County are also claimed, with distribution details unsettled.
