AGAINST INHERITANCE TAX
Board of Trade Asks the Legis-
lature to Repeal Law.

A resolution was adopted Yesterday at
the meeting Of the New York Board Of
Trade and Transportation =" which the
BOARD urged the Legislature 10 rcpea!
Chapter. 7Os OF the Laws ot 1910. when
established the present rate 81 taxation
levied By the state upon direct and col
lateral inheritances.
The tax is especially odious,' the reso-
luton stated. because the state takes
advantage Of the death or a citizen and
the misfortune Of his bereaved family Il
makes death the occasion Of arbitrarily
abstractins from what is left to the wife
and minor children over 5000, or over
500 left 70 some helpless dependent
ON the other hand while the heirs 20
large estates will not suffer want because
OF the increased levy upon them. the state
Legislature in its greed appears 20 have
overreached the bounds OF wisdom. In
seeking more. it has made the tax so
b,lrdensome that the wealthy are induced
70 take up their residence in other states
The new law went into effect in July, 1910
and n Is estimated that no less than four
hundred millions Of taxable property have
been ALREADY taken from this state
