wS trrifflljUyi ift was ma<3e vester
- day by the Semet-
Solvay Coke Com
pany in Commonwealth court. The
grounds upon which the action was
based is unique in the history of tax
appeal arguments in that the question
of the right of the State of Pennsyl
vania to levy a tax upon the "in
tangible assets." of corporations which
do business In other States, was put
up to Dauphin's judges. The appeal
ing company has a branch plant at
Steelton.
Xh.e Company's ftft-,
peal Involves taxes amounting to!
about $6,000 and represents the State's j
levy on something more than $1,100,-
000. The comnany declares that tax-1
ation has been Imposed on bills re- [
ceivable, deposits, etc., in banks in j
other States which is used for manu- i
facturing purposes in those States.!
These have been termed "intangible I
assets." The State however, contends |
that these moneys are taxable as they
cannot be taxed by the other States as;
foreign corporation funds.
Elevator Repaired. The front
elevator in the courthouse rotunda
has been repaired and is now in serv
ice with new cables, safety appliances,
etc.
