REGISTER BONDS WITH STATE


 Norwich owners of bonds. notes and chooses in action upon which no taxes have been paid within the past yes-. will be liable to local taxation at nearly six times the state rate if they fasl 10 register such intangfbles with the state treasured by Oct. 1. Notwithstanding this fact, it was said this week at the state treasurer's office that the last few days had not seen any considerable rush for such registrations.
 Owners of such intang1hles have the option of paying taxes on them either to the state or to the town in which they live. In most cases 1t Is greatly to ths advantage of the owners to pay the tax to the state. as the state charges at the rate of only four mills on the dollar. whereas the prevailing tax rate in near ly all towns is many times that rate.
 To be exempt from local taxation on their intangtbles. the state law requires the owners to list them with the state treasurer prior to the taxng date for the town in which the owners I've. The state law which allows holders of intangihles to list them with the stats at four mills on the dollar, permits the owners to pay the tax for several years in advance, and requires the treasurer to give the owners a certificate of local tax exemption for the period for which the tax has been paad- Only such New London people as pad the state tax on their intangibles prior to Got l. 1891 for period of more than one year. and such people as have uacd khe state tax on their sntang5o1es for one year since Oct l. 1921. will be exemrt from local taxation on their intangibies with. out registering these bonds, notes and choses in action with the state treasurer by Sunday.
