Banner Month for Inheritance Tax Collections
June marked a banner month as the state treasury collected 26315.05 dollars in collateral inheritance taxes led by Treasurer Gilbertson. At roughly 300000 a year rate the biennial total could reach 600009 if the pace continued but officials doubt this. February receipts totaled 23000 dollars signaling a high overall rate, with special efforts to accelerate payments by negotiating partial receipts to bolster general revenue. The treasury expects the June rate not to be sustained throughout the year.
