INTANGIBLES TAX | SETS STATE HIGH

The intangibles tax—25 cents on | every $100 worth of stocks, bonds, | | mortgages—netted the State an all-| time high of $1599686 last year. | Henry Murray, Tax Board chair- | man, reported today. This is an increase of $217.633 over 1940 collections. Mr. Murray attributed the increase both to the work of the field auditors who were sent out last vear to enforce the law and to the work of Judson H. West, head of the intangibles tax department. Under the law, 90 per cent of the intangibles tax collection will be returned to local governmental units. The Tax Board also reported that | the 1942 budgets approved by it were $8.700,000 less than advertised rates, with $1500,000 of the cut being made by the Board itself. Other 1941 tax collections reyorted by the Board included a | total of $1603000 in inheritance] axes, an increase of $17.800 over | he 1940 figure. and a total of $531.408 in store tax licenses up until | 23. 1941.
