TRACING MONEY IN
TAXABLE PROPERTY
State Eoard is Getting Names of
Owners of Foreign Corpora
tion Stock for Taxing.
State Tax Commissioner W. H. Os
borne is planning to trace the own
ership of county registered warrants
and stock in foreign corporations so
that such securities may be listed for
taxation when the assessors begin
work April. These two classes of se
curities are taxed as intangible prop
erty, warrants at the rate of $1 per
$1,000 valuation and stock in for
eign corporations at 25 per cent or
one-fourth of the rate which real and
ordinary personal property is taxed.
The state tax commissioner finds
there are between 300 and 400 for
eign corporations doing business ia
Nebraska. He has asked these cor
porations to furnish him a list of
persons in Nebraska who own shares
of their stock. He has received re
plies from many. He will transmit
the names of the Nebraska share
owners to the proper county asses
sors who will list the property where
the owners live and tax it at the
rate of 25 per cent of the rate charg
ed tangible property.
In the matter of registered county
warrants the state tax commissioner
has asked county treasurers for a
list of warrants owned or held by
persons living outside of the county
where the warrants are registered.
If the owners live in Nebraska their
names with the amounts of the war
rant owned will be sent by the state
tax commissioner tothe proper coun
ty assessor for taxation at the rate
of $1 for each $1,000 of warrants
owned. As j-et there are no registered
stat9 warrants, but if registration
becomes necessary before April 1
the same information in regard to
state warrants will be furnished as
sessors. Foreign corporations report the
value of their shares of stock, but as
assessors will have to use their own
judgment as to the real worth of this
class of property.
Mr. Osborne and Assistant Harry
W. Scott have returned from a serres
cf meetings with county assessors,
county clerks and taxpayers held at
Grand Island. Bridgeport, Alliance
and Sidney. Another meeting of as
sessing officess will be held at Val
entine March 14 and 15 and a day
or two later a general meeting at
Lincoln.
ARRIVE SAFELY AT HOME- .
STEADS IN WYOMINS
Word has ben received from Har
vey J. Heneger, who left Saturday
morning in- his Ford car, accompan
ied by Harold Daly, for the home
stead lands of these two ex-service
men near Torrington. Wyoming",
stating that they arrived safely and
experienced no car trouble on the
entire trip. At Scottsbluff they ran
into considerable of a blizzard, but
as they were near their destination,
it did not trouble them and the onlv
delay suffered was . in staying all
night in the beet sugar factory town.
Mr. Heneger writes that he will re
ceive his mail at Yoder. Wyoming,
which is one of the new townsites in
the heart of the homestead land re
cently placed under irrigation. An
other townsite has been staked out
within a mile of the farms of both
Heneger and Daily and as all the
claim owners are ex-service men, the
new townsite will probably be given
the name "Legion." Harve was pre
paring to make a trip to town for
the first load of lumber for his new
"shack," when he penned the letter
telling of their safe arrival.
