COAL MINE TAXATION

The Albuquerque Journal is to be
commended for its stand for a just
mine tax law. In an editorial in last
Sundays paper, some light was cast
on the matter and incidentally a fit
ting compliment was paid to Harry
L. Patton of this city in the follow
ing reference to his opinion on the
mine tax law:
"The state tax commission and the
attorney generals office need to ex-
plain. On August 2S, 1917, Harry
L. Patton, attorney general, in opin-
ion 2O5O, held the above law (rela-
tive to taxing coal landS) unconsti-
tutional, thereby throwing the tax
back to an advalorem basis. This
opinion was ignored and is still ig-
nored by the state tax commission
and the present attorney general.
Had 1t been followed, several mil
lion dollars would now repose in the
public Golfers which are snugly tuck
ed away with the corporation"
