TAXATION OF BANK SHAREs 10 the case
of the First National Bunk Of Shreveport.
La. ce. the board OF reviewers, in which the
hank and stockholders joined to obtain
reduction Of the assessment put on The
shares of the bank for the yenr 1887, upon
The ground that of the capital stock OF the
bank 5000 600 $4,000 was invested in
non taxable United States and State bonds
and that this amount should be deducted
from the assessment levied on the shares, the
Supreme Court OF Louisiana has affirmed the
decision of the lower court. The following
is synopsis OF the decision However true
it may be that United States bonds are not
taxable az independent assets, and that
their taxation does not depend upon the
constitutional provisions of the different
States, it is matter beyond discussion that
when the capital of p bank is in part or in
whole invested il them the shares of such
bank, whether national or Slate, are liable
to State taxation. La the assessment OF
shares Of a bank whose capital is represent
ed by stock it is immateral whether the
capital was or was not invested in Uaited
States bonds and State bonds, although as
rule the same be themselves exempt from
taxation. The words ''all exempt proper
tyn do net apply 10 United States bonds or
to State bonds in which the capital of
hank, State or national, represented by
shares, has been Invested.
