TAX STAMPS ON REcEIPTs.-It may be well
for all to understand that all receipts for
money paid must be stamped. On this SUBJ
ject the commercial editor of the Bulletin
says:
There has been considerable discussion
among business men as to the proper division
of expense in relation to stamps required
upon various documents under the revenue
laws, and the equities of the case are not vet
clearly defined. The new act requires upon
the document stamp of the .p.rson, or
party who shall make, sign, or issue the same,
or for whose use or benefet the same shall be
made, signed OF issued" Here the requisi-
ton applies equally to the maker of the in
strument and to the receiver. But the pen.
alty of $50 in section Isl for neglect, applies
in direct terms only to thesmaker and issuer,
and not to the person for whose benefit it NAV
be intended. In case off receipt for money,
therefore, which should be unstamped, the
rule would be that the document would be
valueless to the holder, while the signer
would be liable to the penalty of $50 for is
suing it without the stamp. Which. then,
should pay the cost of the stamp? 1t would
seem that the better rule would be to require
the issuer or signer in all cases to afix the
stamp but there will be multitudes Of in
stances where be will have no interest in the
issue of such document, and will not pre-
pare it unless the receiver viii furnish the
stamp. Some provisions for this should have
be n made in the act. In England person
who receives any sum Of money above G5
can be required to give-a stamped receipt,
at his own proper cnst. and ifhe refuses is IL
able to penalty of Sl0. In this country the
law is silent, and the person, therefore, for
whose use or protection the document is re-
quired, will be obliged to furnish the stamp
if the maker of the receipt refuse. In our
judgment he ought not to refuse, and the
law should compel him to furnish it.
