Supreme Court Upholds Montana Income Tax Law
The Montana Supreme Court upheld the 1933 legislature’s state graduated income tax, allowing 1934 collection on 1933 incomes. The court split five to two, with Justice Stewart writing for the majority supported by Anderson and Matthews, while Chief Justice Callaway and Justice Angstman dissented. The majority ruled the levy is an excise tax within legislative power despite constitutional concerns, noting income taxation ultimately affects corporate earnings via dividends. The dissents argued the tax falls under property and exemptions for corporations render it unconstitutional.
