H. Van Winkle has rendered an opinion that the new income tax law does not apply to 1929 incomes. Instead he says it begins with the 1930 Incomes payable in 1931. The strict letter of the 1929 legislative act called for income tax payments on 1929 incomes payable in 1930. The attorney general holds that the holding up of the bill through a referendum defers the time It Is to go into effect. " 1 'The state ' tax commission which has been puzzled about what to do and asked the attor ney general's advice on the mat ter received the opinion but withheld comment on thd find ings. The uncertainty regarding the interpretation of the law was one reason the commission asked for an early special session of the legislature. Terms Could Have Been Meet, If no Vote Taken "Had the referendum not been invoked,' read the attorney gen eral's opinion, "the law would have become operative in 1929 and, 'in that event, its terms with reference to date of opera tion might have been fully com plied with. "By reason of the act having been referred to the people for their approval it became a legis lative bill rather than an act of the legislature and retained that status until it was approved by the people at the election held November. 4, 1930. "If the statute, as enacted by the people were construed to be effective upon the dates named in the bill, which was attempted to be enacted by the legislative assemblyJts provisions would be retroactive. "In the absence of terms Indi cating a clear intent on the part of the legislature that the act shall be retroactive, it should not be so construed as to gire it that effect Intent of Law to Delay Payment, View "Applying the foregoing prin ciples to the provisions of the statute under consideration and the historical facts, there seems no doubt of the legislative Intent of the people in enacting this law, that the taxes thereby im posed should first be collected In the year following.
