Supreme Court Rules in
Favor of the TAXPAYER

In decision handed down by the SUI
preme Court yesterday it was held that
when a county assessor adds promissory
notes to his assessment list as omitted
property" the taxpayer must be allowed
the same credit on account of his debts
that he would have been entitled to If the
township assessor had listed the notes.
Judge Monks said that while the Legis-
lature probab bly, had power to make a law
providing that any person 1aiilng TO list
called should forfeit any right to deduc-
ton for Indebtedness, but, he said such
law had not been passed.
