BANK DECISION
ADDS 100000
TO TAX ROLLS

Approximately a million and a half
dollars is to be added to the tax rolls
in Montana Immediately following
che decision of the supreme court in
the recent Billings bank case, the
ST. e tax commission has decidtd.
The commission feels that the SUI
7~ene court gave its approval to tax
alton of shares of stock in state
barks-the method by which taxes
bave been levied on national banks.
This will mean that a million and a
haf dollars represented by stock in
state banks, which has not been taxed
during the past year, will bear the
sswe charges as stock of national
banks. Under a former decision state
banks were taxed on their money cap
ftai and were allowed to deduct from
that amount the total of their invest
men in tax-free government bonds.
Just what method will be used to
add this property to the tax rolls is
not yet determined, Chairman J. w.
TTetIer said today. The board be-
6eyes it has the power to assess it
"a property which has not been as
sessed but is seeking the advice of
the attorney general and the sugges-
tioEs Of assessors before determining
the means to be used.
