The Montana legislature authorized a new classification system taxing moneys and credits at 7 percent, deemed constitutional by the supreme court. Charles Leonard of Butte, head of the temporary tax commission, says the reform will bring many previously untaxed properties into the tax base and reduce the old hit or miss system. Citizens with large sums in cash or notes are urged to report voluntarily, viewing it as good citizenship and a fairer approach aligned with other states' tax reforms.
