oil produced under the federal instru-
mentality; that the law was invalid
in that the producer was made to pay
gross production tax on the royalty
paid to owners of leases; that the
title of the bill did not sufficiently
state the subject matter of the law.
Justice Sharp's opinion held that
the gross production tax is tax on
the business or occupation and that
the amount Of tax was determined By
the value of the production. He held
that the law exempted nothing from
the advalorem taxation, but merely
substituted one form of taxation for
another.
The constitution gives the legisla-
ture authority to select the subieg
for taxation say the opinion.
Judge Sharp held that the legisla-
ture did not go out of the constitu-
tional bounds when it held the prc-
duction under federal agencies not
subject to the gross production tax
but subject to the advalorem assess
ment
The question of the liability of the
producer to pay the tax on the roy
atty, the part Of the production which
is turned over TO the owner of the
oil lease, was not touched by the
court. Only questions that involve
the validity Of the act were decided,
