State Bonds Issue Of April I, 1911
Opinion Of Attorney General.


Attorney General John III. Light has
given the following opinion to State
Treasurer Costello Lippitt concerning
the exemption of bonds from taxation
issued under the authority of an act
approved AprilS14. 1909. BY this act
the companies which purchase the
s2.000,000 worth of bonds to be sold
by the state on Tuesday will be ex-
empt from taxation on these bonds.
The bonds which are 1-2 per centum
annually will be worth, accordingly
IL per 'centum. The opinion by the
attorney general follows:
STATE OF CONNECTICUT.
Attorney Generals Office.
Hartford, March 23 1911
Sir: In your favor of yesterday you
inquire:
How can corporation liable to
taxation under chapter "a, Public Acts
Of 1905, obtain an exemption from tax
alton of state bonds issued under au-
thority of an act approved April IA
1909, authorizing the treasurer to is
sue state bonds. Section 8 of that act
reads all shall be exempt from tax
alton by or under state or municipal
authority"
The statute to which you call my at
tention requires the secretary treas
urer, or cashier of the corporations
liable to taxation Hereunder, to file
In the office of the tax commissioner
annually, on or before the 18th day of
October, statement under oath,
showing the number of shares of it's
capital stock, and the market value
thereof on the first day of October
the name and residence of each stock
holder and the number of shares own
ed by each on said last named date:
and on or before the last day following
February, each of said corporations
shall pay to the treasurer of the state
nf no on ha orJ~ rot
value on each share of its stock, as
such value may be determined under
the provisions of section 1882 of the
general statutes.
Under. said section, the board of
equalization determines the market
value of the shares of the capital
stock for the purpose of taxation. In
performing this duty they must con-
slider all the assets of each, corpora
ton, including state bonds, If any
and the market value of the capital
stock so determined will necessarily
represent the taxing value of all the
property of the corporation.
The legislature has not expressly
provided a method for allowing the
exemption from taxation of the state
bonds, when held by corporations
taxed under chapter "a of the Public
Acts of 1905. so I believe it to be the
duty of the board of equalization to
provide such q method
In my opinion it would be a simple
matter to permit each corporation to
subtract the amount of state bonds
held among it's assets from the value
of all of the capital stock as deter
mined by the board of equalization,
and to pay the tax on the remainder.
Respectfully submitted,
(sisned) JOHN H. LIGHT,
Attorney General

Judge Mason Decides Big
Land Case in Favor of a
Little Girl.

A case Of more than ordinary Inn
portance has jest been decided by
Judge John w. Mason at special
term of the circuit court, at Fair
mont. The suit was begun in Har-
riBon county and transferred to the
Marion circuit for the reason that
Judge Lynch had been consulted
about the title before he was elected
Judge. The subject OF the contrO-
versy is 1855 acres of valuable land
near the city of Clarksburg. The
land is very valuable for farming
purposes and contains about 100
acres OF the Pittsburg vein of coal.
December 16. 1858, Truman Tore.
who then owned the land. conveyed
1t to his daughter. Susan Il. Gore.
The language of that part of the
deed out Of which this controversy
arises is as follows: 1.-The said Tru-

both grant unto the said Susan l..

ried Erugar E. Smith, and had by
ono ehfld-iFlora Smith -who was
the only child Susan ever had. Flora
was married twice and died leaving
two children-onc by each marriage
namely Marshall w. Rust and Flora

by Flora Shafter Matfle in ejectment
claiming title to an undivided half
interest in said land
In 1888 Susan l.. Smith and her
daughter. then Flora Rust. con-
veyed the land to Solmon d. Gore.
The defendants claim the land un-
der Solomon D. Gore.
The controversy arises over con-
struction of the deed OF Thomas
Gore to his daughter, Susan. Does
Susan take by that deed an absolute
fee simple estate, or anly an estate
for life? II the deed conveys only
a life estase to Susan, and the re-
mainder to the heirs of her body,
then by the deed of Susan and her
daughter to Solomon D. Gore. only
an estate for the life of Susan
passed to Solomon and Susan being
dead. the heirs of her body are en-
titled to the land. 1t should be re
marked that Flora Rust+Matile, died
while her mother. Susan L. Smith,
was living, hence she was not her
mothers heir-no one is heir to the
living.
Judge Mason holds that Truman
Cores deed conveyed only life es-
tate to Susan. The opinion is based
on Sec. IL. Oh. ZIG of the Code OF
1919 in effect in Virginia when the
deed was made and still in force
in this State. That section reads:
where any estate, real or per
