the U ing their arraignment before S commissioner State Lawmaker Speaks On Tax Situation In Utah The practice of throwing doubt upon the state tax amendments which will come before the voters at the November election and scattering seeds of disbelief in the honesty and ability of Utah legislators was denounced by George A Fuller Utah state representative from Weber county before the Kiwanis club today Mr Fuller spoke on the subject “The Other Side of the Tax Problem” and answered certain accusations that had been made over the state that the amendments would not relieve the property which is now carrying the majority of the taxes and that the power that voters would give to future legislative bodies would be misused He took as one example the tax on mines which according to the new amendments will be left as is until 1935 At the present time mines are taxed on a valuation of $5 an acre as is ordinary range land and the net income for one year is multiplied by three and taxed on that result “The reason’ he said “that it 'was left this way was because at the present tune there is no one who is capable of saying just how mines should be taxed The additional five years will give a chance to make an accurate and comprehensive survey of the matter” INT EARLY DAYS He first gave a general survey of the tax situation as it is today saythat when the constitution was ing 'drawn up some 35 years ago there were very few people who understood the difference between tangible and intangible property At that time he asserted there was but little intangible property and land and tangibles formed practically all of the wealth that could be taxed Conditions have since almost turned directly about and incomes are not coming exclusively from real estate Apparently he declared at the time the constitution was drawn up the question of ability to pay He criticised was not considered the manner in which so many acres of land in the state which are altogether unproductive are now taxed It has been estimated that the total income in the state from salaries wages real estate and other means is $280000000 a year Of this amount property with income of $70000000 pays the total expenses of the state or the $20000-00- 0 which is raised through taxes each year The main object of the special legislature which met last spring and drew up the amendments to be voted upon was to secure an equitable distribution of taxes he declared Under the present constitution the legislative body is so handicapped that it is impossible for it to function properly The amendments will take these limitations from the body he said FRIGHTENING CAPITAL He mentioned the fact that many said an income tax would drive capital from Utah and deprive the state of many concerns which are thriving He answered that by saying it was impossible to drive money from any place where it is proiitable for it to be If it is possible to drive money from a state he said the other 20 states in the union which have adopted the system would be confronted with diminishing industries In defense of the income taxes which are placed under the amend- ments as excise and personal income taxes he said they found the only equitable manner in taxing an ability to pay The fact that the amendments carry the provision that exceptions and deductions may be made will allow them to take the burden from the small wage earner and put it on those who are able to pay In conclusion he urged the members to study the tax amendments “You will find that they are sane and are based upon the proposition of allowing the legislature to pass laws that will equalize the burden” he declared IMiss June Emley and Miss Zella Phillips entertained with two piano duets H HEARING GIVEN TO TWO SIDES W A McKendricks
