.28 bill to levy a tax of ten ler cent on the net income of small loan companies, loan' and investment firms and pawnbrokers in lieu of all taxes on the yield of their, tangible and intangible, personal property was advanced to the final vote stage Wednesday in the House of Representatives. Suggested by small loan companies, it met with some disapproval from loan and investment companies but was not changed other than to exclude real estate firms, and credit unions from the'provisions. Real estate firms dealing in farm loans asked exclusion so they might be taxed according general intangible tax levy of four per cent of the net yield. That bill awaits only the Governor's signature to become law. Loan and investment companies failed in their attempt before a House committee to the bill amended so they would pay the same intangible property tax as banks would under a pending bill--seven per cent on net income.
