TAX ON CORPORATIONS
SHOULD BE RAISED ACCORDING
TO SECRETARY OF STATE.
New Statute Recommended by Seere-
tary holland to Record All Com
panies Doing Business.

western Newspaper Union News Service
Denver.-Chief Clerk Dudley Hum
phrey of the secretary of states Of
flee has finished a compilation Of cor
poration taxes paid in the various
states which reveals that Colorado re-
ceives but $4,000 annually from for
eign and domestic corporations, or q
little over per cent of the state
taxes, while in Kansas 1,500 charters
for corporations have been issued In
the last year up to June with an In
come to the state of t134.0OO in fees
and $259,54O for state license tax.
As a measure to increase the state
revenue Governor Gunter will be re-
quested by the secretary of state to
include in the governors call for q
corporation laws providing for the col
lection Of just corporation tax.
The report as compiled by Hum
phrey and submitted to the governor
contains the information that Colorado
collects only on the capital stock of
domestic companies and only on that
proportion of capital stock of foreign
corporations as is represented in af-
fidavits filed in the secretary of states
office. BY collecting 1-5O of 1 per cent
the flat tax for Colorado would amount
to $4OO 900 as compared with $4,000
collected now.
Noland's plan provides the receipts
be increased so that the moneys col
Iected from the sources named will be
sufficient to pay the interest and re-
tire bond issue of $3.OOO,OO0 within
ten years.
