to 1904, 670.65, which has Just been paid
into the state treasurer's office. For the
six months preceding, the tax amounted
to 1924, 37490, and the period ending
June 80 0l2l, S280,294.05.
These figures show that the law ex-
empting from taxation money loaned by
at rate not exceeding five
per cent. has not materially affected the
savings banks and trust companies of
this state for the deposits continue at
the same rate OF increase as before the
law went into effect.
1t is interesting to note also that the
tax for the last six months period ex-
ceeded the tax for whole year paid ten
years ago. The tax paid during the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1913, amount
ed to S2s4,622.73, as against S304, 670.65
for the six months payment just made.
If the present rate of increase holds good
for the balance of the year, the tax for
the whole year will amount to 100000,
an increase of more than $4,000 over
the year preceding.
The figures for the past ten years are
n faI1n,us.
