eliminate these two features"
McCarren produced the follow
ing table 10 uphold his contention
of tfnfairneSs.
Ender the present property
tax law Si.00s home pays an
annual tax of S129.71.
\ Under the intangible tax law
- 900 worth Of Ford Motor
Company stock pays 8 cents;
with $4,000 OF General Motors
/, common stock paying Sl.24; with
- 900 worth of Chrysler Motor
Company stock paying Q cents.
and 81 900 worth of s. s. kresge
stock paying Si.e4.
The wide differences IN the tax
on the shares Of different corpora
tions is due to differences in the
par value Of the shares and also TO
provision which taxes the stock
on the basis of how much value is
represented by investment within
the borders Of Michigan as COM
pared 10 the amount Of investment
in other states.
To fill out a return intelligently
on common stock the taxpayer
must obtain a booklet from the
State Tax Commission or from
some local bank or trust company
which gives the division between
Michigan and out of state invest
ments for all corporations with
outstanding stock issues
McCarren pointed out that
neither the millionaire nor the lit
tie man will suffer under the new
intangihles tax.
Take the case ~ a man who
has $500. 900 worth OF ChryslPr
stock and s2O0.OO0 worth Of
General Motors stock" McCar-
rem said. "He IL worth half a
million dollars and yet under the
intanGibles tax he pays exactly
$3.50 tax on these holdings.
Finder the did property tax
law he would pay $4,000 on this
same stock"
Detroit will work through the
Michigan Municipal League in at
tempting 10 have the intangible
tax law revamped into a substan-
tial money raising measure.
McCarrcn Is the chairman Of the
leagues committee on taxation
and will he the key man in draw
ing up the recommended changes.
ACT HELD VALID
The city last Summer joined in
law suit 10 have the Intangible
Tax Act declared unconstitutional
but were unsuccessful when the
Supreme Court decided the act
was valid.
The state tax commission has
three powerful weapons in the col
lection of the new intangihleS TAX
il II chooses 10 use them. The
commission can make use Of De-
troit'S assessment rolls which car
ried moro than 800. 600. 900 worth
Of intangibleS II can deIve into
federal income tax records, and
can make use of Securities Ex-
change Commission reports.
McCarren points out that the
blanks that have been issued by
the state tax commission do not
contain space for the names OF
the stocks and bonds. but only
space for the number and amount.
This will make it difficult to
check their accuracy. he adds.

Child's Road Away From Fear
To Courage Calls For A Lot
Of Sympathetic Guidance

different kind OF fear. 1t Is asso-
ciated with loneliness.
So 1t Is wise to reduce the nightly
allowance of light in the room or
hall gradually, until Jack or Jane
have learned to laugh at their
former horrors, If the dread Of
darkness has once started.
Once in awhile 1t so happens that
child Is suddenly confronted with
an emergency. He has always been
afraid of tight things, just to illus
trate, because Of some hangover
from babyhood. Maybe he was
bound too tightly by clothes. Maybe
he was shut in closet for punish
ment, an unthinkable thing today.
So he has developed a real mania
or phobia which is a matter tor
psychiatrists. However, one day he
Is playing and the pantry door bangs
shut and he can't get 1t open. Well,
at first he is half hysterical. Then
something In him whispers, BE sure
they will hear you. Pretend not to
mind" So he does and Is soon
rescued. How proud he is then.
