TAX QUESTION is PREPARED
U. S. High Court To Decide Which
Land Is Taxable

MusEoge gee.-Suits 10 determine i'm
portsnt tax questions pertaining 10
; dian property are in preparation BY
the probate attorneys Office at the In.
dian agency at Muskogee.
TIL, Sc suits a.e expected to be ap.
peaied to the United States supreme
court and Will determine whether sur
plus allotmeDts of half-blood Chero-
KEGS are taxable; whether deceased al
louncnts become taxable so long a.
they remain the property of the an
cestral estate and whether personal
property purchased with restricted
funds belonging to Indians is taxable.
indian agency officials say millions OF
dollars are involved in these cases.
An appeal is being prepared in a
case where Judge Robert L. Williams.
Of the eastern Oklahoma federal court
held that when restricted Indians
funds are invested in town lots and
the lots within the city limits, they
become taxable.
His opinion raises the point on
which the case is being appealed;
namely, the funds remained restricted
funds no matter what their represen-
IatiCn. The opinion holds. however.
that when these funds were invested
in that manner, and the lots made the
property Of the state, the state has
the right to levy the taxes on the
holding.
