DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Mine Taxation in the United States The mineral industry of the United States had an output which was valued by the United States Geological Survey at two billion four hundred million dollars in 1913 and at two billion one hundred thousand dollars in The average value per annum during the period 1909 to 1914 was approximately two billion one hundred million dollars. A large amount of capital is invested in the industry and in certain communities the mines comprise the principal form of wealth. In such districts and in those states in which mining is one of the leading industries the problem of the taxation of mines and of mineral lands has become of great importance. During the last decade considerable attention has been directed to this subject by the taxing bodies of a number of states, and important legislation directly affecting the problem has been enacted in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and in a number of the Rocky Mountain states.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Proceedings of the Second Annual National Mine Tax Conference: At the Twenty-Fourth Annual Convention of the American Mining Congress, Chicago, Illinois, October 17 to 22, 1921 The federal taxes are uniform all over the country. The state taxes are far from uniform. One state levies taxes on certain industries at the rate of 1.7 cents per pound, another state levies them at the rate of one-half a cent per pound. How can industries in those two states compete on equal terms with those conditions? The three great things that are worrying the mining industry today are: high cost of wages and labor, high cost of transportation, and high and discriminatory and un-uniform taxes. The railroads are recognizing that and are endeavoring to make their rates uniform. The illustration of that is the long and short haul. For example, the mines get a rate on copper, with which I am familiar, to the seaboard, to the East, of $16.50 per ton. That rate is almost uniform in Montana, in Arizona, in Utah, and elsewhere. Wages are mobile. They take care of themselves more or less. If there is a tendency to equalize wages in different states, the taxes have no such tendency unless the mines themselves initiate some sort of a movement, some sort of a concentrated effort to make taxes uniform. There are two ways the states accomplish the penalization of mines: They raise the tax rate directly against the mine. They put on an ad valorem tax and add to that a tonnage tax. Minnesota has distinctly penalized mines. It has an open policy of penalizing mines. In the first place it has an amendment to the constitution which taxes mines to 50 per cent of their value, other property is taxed to 30 and 40 per cent of its value. In addition, it has an occupation tax which is added to that. Another way to accomplish this result is to increase the value of the mines, to gradually add on valuation, increasing it by different methods, increasing it by changing the factors of valuation until the mines are paying a greater share of the tax in that particular state than in other states. Now these conditions have moved the Mining Congress to invite here their representatives to discuss this question and it is a most serious one now. It is far more serious, in my estimation, than the federal tax is. We are going to discuss this and see if it is possible in any way to arrive at some sort of uniformity in state taxation, to arrive at some principles of uniformity and to initiate some movement toward the accomplishment of that result to mold out the unfair discriminatory taxes of some of the states against mines. Mr. Kriegh of the Tax Division of the American Mining Congress has prepared here as a basis of this discussion a summary of the state taxation and revenue systems of the various states. I will ask him to explain that briefly. This summary is here for distribution among you gentlemen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
