MINED TO SECURE REpEAL
OF. PRESENT UNJUST TAX
FAVOR NEW YORK PLAN
GATHERING DATA VOW. CHAIRMAN
TODD SAYS, TO PRESENT IT'S
CASE TO THE NExT GEN.
ERAL ASSEMBLY

The Richmond Real Estate Ex-
change is entering with earnest de-
termination that will not brook de-
feat it's purpose OF reforming the Vir-
ginia mortgage tax laws
Chairman William Todd, of the eX-
change press committee. said yester-
day: The present State law on
mortgage taxes Is unjust and un-
reasonable. Its operation has COM
pounded dissatisfaction in real es-
tate and financial circles as well, and
it encourages deception. and evasion.
! do not believe that the state re-
ccives now returns from over 10 per
cent of the outstanding mortgages,
for the reason that both lender and
borrower regard the law as unjust
and consequently evade it.
4 Double Tax.
The present law is really a double
tax. The lender who takes the
mortgage on the property must pay
the State one and three-quarter pei
cent for the privilege OF loaning It.
and the property owner who gives the
mortgage must pay the State for the
privilege of borrowing needed money
The borrower must now pay s per
cent on all the money ne borrows on
real estate because the lender Aas
has to put his rate high enough to
get his State tax out OF 1t whether
he pays the tax or not
I'VE viii probably suggest to the
legislature plan like that pursued
in New York State, which has proven
eminentiy successful. When the
mortgage is recorded the holder must
paw AK OF of,e-half Of one per
cent and that's the end OF 1t. There's
no burden on the property owner and
none on the lender except the original
low tax. which. as you see, auto
maticaily collects itself A law Of
this Kind would give us 5 per cent
money and that is what Richmond
needs badly. 1t would do much to
stimulate real estate and building
activity. Furthermore we propose Ia
show to the general assembly that the
State would derive more revenue from
such law as New York's than il
does from Its present statute, for
under the New York plan every
mortgage would pay tax. while the
existing Law is consistently eSaaed
and HE state is getting Hstie or moth
ing from that source"
Gathering Data Now.
Secretary Boykin, of the exchange,
is now gathering data in the shape of
complete Information regarding the
mortgage tax laws Of all the other
States of the Union. and this data
will be laid before the board of gov
ernors Of the exchange at its next
meeting for further action. At that
time, 1t is understood. the board will
outline the Jaw it believes best suited
TO Nirginia's needs and then start in
on an active campaign to secure the
enactment nf a proper statue By the
