Big Fortunes And Taxes On Inheritances
Washington reports congressional tax authorities agreed that even if Roosevelt's inheritance tax bill becomes law now it will not affect many large fortunes for years as most have already passed to heirs. The tax would be prospective only, applying to future inheritances or gifts. Rockefeller case indicates minimal tax in 1922, with most income property transferred to heirs or foundations.
