Suit Begun to Resist Inheritance Tax in Sioux City
Executors of the late Benjamin R. Sheldon estate bring suit in Sioux City against State Treasurer Gilbertson to resist payment of a 5 percent inheritance tax on Iowa property valued at 295000 plus dollars. They claim the tax on the balance is uncollectible due to a non retroactive law. The piece also notes high prices at a Hawarden Iowa shorthorn sale and other local items.
