HOW TODODGE THE
 INHERITANCE TAX
Nearly Every State Is
 Interested
THE kEENEY ESTATE
Seek to Establish COnstitutionality of New York Transfer Tax Imposed on Life Interest Retained in
 Transferred Property

Washington. December 6.-How in- heritance taxes may be lodged was explained today to the supreme court of the United States. An effort was being made in argument to have the court uphold the constitutionality of the New York transfer tax" enacted
 In 1896 to stop evasions of the inher- itance tax.
 Nearly every state having an inner
 itance law is said to be interested in
 the decision of the court in passing on
 the law. It will probably be several
 weeks before the decision is an-
 nounced.
 The transfer tax is imposed on the
 life interest retained in property trans,
 ferred by a person. The very fact that life interest in property was singled out for taxation led to the attack on the law as being unconstitutional. 1t was arugued that the singling out of this interest was an arbitrary and un- reasonable classification of property for taxation, prohibited by the four teenth amendment to the federal con- stitution.
 LiiO Coilplalhb dpOul ih6 ldW CdHlt u a focus when the state comptroller sought to collect about s3000 as d transfer tax" from the estate of Mrs. Susan A. keeney of 175 Washington Park, Brooklyn, N. Y. She died in 1907
 but four years before she had trans ferred large amount of her property to the Fidelity Trust company of New ar I in ct bpr tbraa nh L. dren. She provided, however, that she should retain one-fourth of the income
 from this property during her life. It was this life interest that the state sought to tax.
 The court of appeals of New York upheld the constitutionality of the tax. In announcing the opinion of the court Chief Justice Cullen said that it was not a wholly unnatural desire eXistir g among owners of property to avoid the
 imposition of the inheritance tax upon the estate they might leave so that the estate might pass to the objects
 of their bounty unimpaired.
 The justice said that it was a mattor
 of common knowledge that for the pur- pose of avoiding the inheritance tax trusts or other conveyances were made whereby the owner of property re-
 served to himself income arising there- from. He added that were it not for the provision of the statute, attacked
 as unconstitutional, in many eases property would pass free from taxes upon the death of person to the par ties who would take 1t as heirs. Tt Is true" said he, that the ln- genious mind may devise other means to avoid the inheritance tax, but the one commonly used is the transfer witt reservation of a life estate. We think this fact justified the legislature 1T singling out this class of transfers as subject to a special tax"
