A simple statement of the facis which occasioned & r JL h 'i i M f M I tt the banks in I tali to contest the payment of certain taxes assessed against their stockholders will we believe be of irtercst to the residents of this kotmtv. in which so much adverse publicity has been given to this question: Due to the nature of their business the assets of hanks, with the exception of the real estate and furniture required for their hanking quarters, are al most entirely of the class known as intangibles; that is to say, they consist of deposits in other hanks, bonds, stocks, mortgage loans, both real and chattel, and the notes of various individuals. In practice, assets of this chjracter have, when held hv individuals or corporations other than hanks, practically ncver been taxed. It is the tax upon this part ot the banks assets which the banks are contesting and not the tax upon its real estate which, without exception, the banks have paid. It will he of interest to the people of this county n the hglt of pnmagin,! yylmh his gone out, to know that the hanks ol Cache county paid when clue taxes on the.r real estate tor 192'1 amounting to In, 2.15. 75, UKI'i of the levy nude t fhr ton on their real estate, or 37 4f taxes corle ted the existing State them under rectly against s law, leaving an unpaid balance m dispute of ot the total taxes 78, or approximately 2' levied in Cache county tot the year 1929 Ol this sl7.26y.7iy, the hanks made a voluntary contribution of 3 s ' . or s6,t)4 76 on Match 2lth and pril n!', 9 1. which was aueptcJ in t ui settlement ot taxes due for the year 1929. Why shm, Id the hanks ot a community he singled out from all other property owneis and required to pay a tax which no one else is icqutrtd to tuv, and when the hanks oh'eit t being so discriminated against why should they he ciitaiyid tot so doing' The hanks have been singled out from other taxpayers and equired to pay taxes upon intangibles in ihc past huausc the law pr.n vied for an assessment against the shares ot their stock and pun idol a simple method ot ascutam.rg tlu toll value ot such stock and its ownership. Ihe law contained no such tnfoiceihle provisions enabling the assessor iead.lv to ascertam the va'ue and ownc sh.p ot ntangihles Ir 1, hv individuals or odor coi p.tr iti.ms and so m practice stub pripe'Des escap'd t'sc'cmr even law subject t assessment where tlu Slate 1J ard ol ui.ihat mi in its upon to ( my c imi I Jet n list c t r said " iiiioibl, i,aii and p, io nil pi,pii' n ! i (i t, ( if 1 ? 1 v i or follow s x 3 , a s 1 , I -- 17,-26- ti determining tile tax payable hy theii owner. he inequality and discrimination against hanks uhih resulted from both the practice as to assessment of intangibles generally, and the exemption given hv law to certain classes of intangibles, is expressed simply in certain formal tinchnus made hv the lax Revision Commission of this state and included in its i cpoi t to the Governor. I hese are as in tangible proper tx lot taxation, lax offnials almost forget about il and toir lax tolls sliofc exdnsne of bank sio,k llial less llian one p, r ,ent of the taxable zalne are intangibles. In 12 tounties of the stale m 1926, not one dollar of the rnottex u as assessed for taxation and m all the state less than half a million sc.o assessed of xiltnh $128, OHO coi in one eonutx a'one.

Ihe constitutional rule requiring the taxation of intangible property at the same rates as tangible property is inequitable and unenforceable. 2. Only a small proportion of the total amount of intangible wealth in the state is now taxed. Ihe remainder is exempt either by constitutional provision or hv common agreement between assessor and taxpayer. The present tax system deliberately exempts 4. all owning classes and all owners of mortgages and stocks in Itah corporations. Since these classes pay no taxes directly the owners of taxable property must pay more. 7. Moneyed capital used in competition with hanks is not adequately taxed under the present system. The foregoing statements and declarations by those bodies oi this State ciuigcd with the adimii x tration of our taxes and yyith the duty ot making a complete investigati n of the operation of our present system and of proposing such changes are necessary to make the system efficient an equitable should put it beyond doubt that in the past the hanks of this State have been discriminated against and been re quire.l to pay taxes upon investments ol a t h natter either exempt hy law or hy common practice when held hv any other individual or corporaMon. Our Constitution contemplates that taxes shall he equal without regard to the identity ot the owner ot the propel tv taxed. Discrimination is not equal1 ity.
