INCOME TAX LAW
IS VALID, State
Judges DECLARE
Court in Banc Unanimously
Sustains Constitutionality
of Statute
ATTORNEY General TO
Get after DELINQUENIS

The constltutlonality Of the State In
come Tax Law was upheld today in a
decision unanimously concurred In by
all flve Justices in the Court in Banc.
Chief Justice Pennewill read the
opinion Of the court from the bench IN
the Public Building at 1880 o'clock this
morning. Seated with him were JUS
tlces Helsel and Rice. The Chief Jus
tice announced that justices Conrad
and Boyce, who also sat in the case
were unable 10 be present but had
read the opinion and had concurred
In Il.
"The opinion OF the court, therefore,
Is unanimous" said The Chief Justice.
who then proceeded 10 read the opin-
ion In full. There were only about
twenty persons. mainly lawyers, in
court.
As a result OF today's decision. At
t0Fnoy General Reinhardt intends pros
ecuiing residents Of the state who
have neglected TO make their returns
and pay their income taxes. There are
hundreds Of such dellnquenls through
out the commonwealth.
The opinion holds FIRST that income
Is property. As income Is property.
Il therefore Is subject TO taxation or
exemption from taxes.
The constitution makers, II Is held,
| recognizing the inherent power Of the
/ legislature 10 tax anything, did not
undertake 10 grant the power Of tax
alton. or say what might be taxed, but
merely provided that the tax imposed
on any class OF subjects should be uni-
! form and that The legislature might
exempt such property as In It's opinion
would best promote the public
welfare
In support OF the exemption In favof
OF rentals Of real estate and gains and
profits from agricultural operations.
the court holds that the legislature
manifestly believed that III the tenant
had TO pay "a tax upon his profits de-
rived from operating the farm. he
would be entitled TO a lower rental. and
20 the extent the rental was decreased,
the return 10 the landowner would be
diminished. In other words, the owner
would Indirectly have 10 pay the tax
| ltNlfN dtulhet lllH lANht7 Va AAo trh
,bnt."
As 20 the exemption OF taxes on in
comes less than $1,000 a year, the court
says briefly, 1t Is enough TO say that
the Legislature might very well have
thought thar such exemption would
best promote public welfare"
In conclusion the court holds that
the Income Tax act does not violate
the Fourteenth amendment OF the Fed
erbl Constitution, or deny equal pro-
tectOn Of the law or deprive the defen-
dant Of property without due process
Of law.
The case in which today's decision
was given Is that Of the State versus
James H. Pinder, Of this city The de-
fendant was Inflicted on a charge OF
violating the State Income Tax Law
and demurred 90 the Indictment. Pin
der was defended by Henry r.. ,jaac.
and William w. Knowles. The Stat'
was represented bv Attorney Genera
