Commissioner Wilson Holds IL Does
Not Apply to Transfers.

WASHINGTON. Nov. Reconnaissance
Wilson. ol thu internal revenue bureau.
has decided an important question rela-
tive to the taxabiiity of the transfers OF

The question came up on "A recent de-
Cfsion by Judge Wooison, OF the United

which refused 70 allow a mortgage 10 be
offered I'm evidence because IL was not
stamped as q transfer II appears that
the mortgage was given I'm payment of
& note which note passed by Endorsement
through several banks. Judge Woolson
declined To allow the mortgage 10 be tn
troduced IN evidence on the ground that
II had not been stamped fer transfer.
Commissioner Wilson does not concur
with Judge Wooison, and takes the view
that II the mortgage was stamped when
first given X is not subject to the stamp
tax as these transfers were simply Inn
piled. and not expressed. He rules that
congress intended only 10 tax the ex-
press assignments and transfers of mort
