AGAINST FERSON
Suit Involving Exemption Of
Foreign Stocks Now Goes to
Supreme Court
Former 8tnte Senator Willie IT.
Tersoli, of Franklin county, was yes
terday thrown out of court in his
effort to have tho enactment of the
1923 General Assembly exempting
stock in foreign corpora^ons from
taxation declared uncons^ktlDnal.
The hearing which was hejd before
Judge E. H. Cranraer In Wake Su
perior Court, got away to a slow
start but got ended abruptly, Judge
T'ranmer declaring" nfTFr over an hour
of argument that he had made rp
his mind sustaining tho demur
rer filed by Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Frank Nash. Senator Person an
nounced his Intention to carry the
case to the Supreme Court at the
Fall term.
Senator Person had evidently pre
pared himself for a big oratorical
effort. The hearing was in cham
bers and therefore out of the prov
ince of the court stenographer. How
ever, Senator Person had secured a
public stenographer in order that his
speech might be preserved in full
The Senator slowed down but was
soon absorbed in hiB own eloquence
and going at top speed again, with
the result that the young lady gave
ft "up as a hopeless Job and there
Is no record of the oratorical effort.
About the time his stenographer
left him, the plaintiff aroused the Ire
Of the court b>\ declaring that the
opinion of the Supreme Court In
the case of Person vs. Watts was "a
logical absurdity and a logal mon
strosity." Judge Cranmer's decision
followed immediately upon this out
burst.
Tax Upon stocks in domestic cor
porations have been paid by the cor
porations since 1887, but stocks In
foreign corporations have been made
taxable in the hands of the holder.
The last General Assembly revers
ed this policy and exempted foreign
stocks trom taxation.
Last fal] Senator Person endeav
ored to have the exemption of do
mestic stocks declared unconstituti
onal and brought a suit seeking a
mandamus compelling A. D. Watts,
Commissioner of Revenue, to have
i the stocks listed for taxation. A
demurrer was filed by tire Attorney
General and sustained by Judge T.
H. Calvert. When the case reachod
tbe Supreme Court on appeal, that
] tribunal declared that Senator Per
son tores not properly in court but
j proceeded to decide tthe question on
tccount of its great Importance, hold
ing the statue then in effect valid.
Shortly after the ajournment of the
leglslature.Senator Person sought a
mandamus from Commissioner R. A.
Doughton compelling the listing of
stocks In foreign corporation*, but
the hearing was continued trom time
to time until yesterday.
Both Senator Person and Assist
ant Attorney General Naeh relied
yesterday upon the decision in Per
son vs. Watts. Mr. Nash contend* tf
: that the former decision of the court
I makes the present action demurra
ble on the grounds that Senator Per
son has mistaken both his forum and
his remedy.
The plaintiff contended that in
passing upon the merits of the -for
mer case the court svpported ni<
present position, According to Sen
ator Person the former case was -le
1 elded on the grounds of long < acquies
?e and the fact that a tax upon
; tbe stock the corporation
| neither of which can BeiiigS'j *n sl'P"
port of tho present law. g
It is expected that if the present
suit falls on technicalities that an
other suit will be started to test the
validity of the foreign stock enact
ment. ? News and Observer. June 21st.
