Supreme Court rules mining firms pay corporation tax
A December 1 Washington dispatch reports the Supreme Court held mining corporations must pay the corporation tax under the Payne Aldrich tariff act. About eight to ten million dollars have been paid under protest, with some 500 suits filed to recover the money. The case arose from Stratton’s Independence, contending that ore proceeds from a corporation’s own mines are not "income" subject to tax, and the court rejected that view while dissenters White McKenna and Holmes challenged depreciation deductions on ore value before mining.
