Revenue Bill Targets Rich, Expands Tax Reach
A lengthy outline of a state revenue bill prepared by the Executive Department proposes broad taxes on personal property mortgages notes and bank capital with penalties for noncompliance. Provisions require annual returns by property owners and penalties for false reporting, while section 20 imposes detailed reporting on corporations to the Auditor General and a 3 to 6 mill tax on capital stock. The measure also allocates funds to counties and sets deadlines for tax collection, with possible penalties for delinquents.
