Protests Move Kansas Truck Tax Case To Court

The Kansas Supreme Court ordered acceptance of 1957 state property taxes on trucks paid under protest and to hold those payments in a special account pending final court action. About 750,000 dollars in truck taxes are involved with unclear figures on protest payments. A district commissioner ruled much of the 1955 and 1956 taxes on motor carriers valid, with a refund of about 54,000 dollars for 1956 taxes paid under protest. The ruling deemed intrastate and interstate certificates of convenience and necessity taxes unconstitutional while upholding the tax on motor carriers equipment.
