The banks hare offered to pay thirty-fiv- e per cent of such taxes provided such amount be accepted In full settlement Since this- offer has been rejected, suit will now be commenced to enjoin the collection of any portion of the the banks' taxes assessed against shares, according to Will L. Hoyt, local attorney who represents the . three banks. It is understood that Salt Lake County and some of the other counties of the state have accepted the the banks to pay by proposition thirty-fiv- e per cent of the controverted tax, but Weber county has refused the offer and will contest the suit to enjoin, .collection.. majority of the taxing units interested in the Juab county tax decided to follow the lead of Weber county, rather than accept the compromise offer. It appears to be certain that one of the cases involving the legality of the tax will be carried to the supreme court of the state for decision. The contention of the banks of the state that the tax against their shares, in excess of the amount covered by their real estate, in unconstitutional and void, is based upon the claim that other similar property is not taxpd 'within the state of Utah, that building and loan companies, finance companies, investment companies and like companies are engaged in competing business taxeither exempted by statute from ation or are not assessed for taxation, and that the attempted assess ment of the banks' stock is therefore, discriminatory. The concensus of opinion seems to be that the present controversy will, In any event, result beneficially to the general taxpayer, since it will quite certainly result in a revision of legis lation governing taxation of com panies whose property consists wholly or substantially of what is known as "intangibles."
