Kansas at Present Time Is One of 12 States Without Any Tax Leg-
Fraternity Issue Passes to Senate for Final Decision
STATES IN 3 GROUPS
islation
If the Hirca hill is killed in the senate, Kansas will remain one of the 12 states in the Union in which fraternity property has been passed, she will join the other group of 36 in which, under one provision or another, fraternity property is taxed. In a report of the low committee on fraternity property, the states have been divided into three groups. In the first group are those states in which fraternities are excommunicated or by judicial decision. In the second are those states which tax organizations under statutes expressly providing for taxation or under statutes not specifying the purpose. In the third group there is only one state, Utah, which does not exempt private educational institutions from taxation, and consequently not the
Kansas and Oklahoma Out
Karnas and Oklahoma fraternities are exempted by judicial decision. Kappa KappaGamma and Pearly in the case of Karnas, and the Dhea Thea Phto in the case of West Virginia read practically the same as those of Karnas, but no judicial decision has been made since it was established. Karnas' case would be effective there.
States expressly exempting college fraternities and secrecy from taxation, Newada, North Dakota, and Vermont. Three other states, Missouri, Tennessee, and Georgia, are gardening taxation are similar to those in which fraternity are not exempt, do
All the rest of the state tax the organizations. In many of them, fraternal organizations with charitable purposes are included among the exempt individuals. We have held that "Greek" organizations could not be classified as charitable.
Courts Made Other Decisions
In other decisions the courts have held that social fortifications were not protected against scientific and literary purposes. In 2018, the Court provided for the exemption of associations "organized exclusively for the benefit of men, women and children." It appears from the wording of this statute that to be tax exempt an association must be owned by a man, woman or child.
In six of the states which tax fraternities, court decisions have denied that they were either literary or scientific in nature. In Arkansas, Arizona and Texas provisions for the taxation of the houses have become especially complicated according to the report. In these cases, the courts require "no institutional institutions," are exempted, but there is a leachhold exception which states that the exemption "shall not extend to leasehold estate or real property." In some jurisdictions, college or university of learning."
Literary Societies Not Exempt
In the states of California, Colorado, Hawaii and Vermont are exempt from North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, Florida. The exemption is made for the exemption of schools from taxation, but not literary society-
Indiana, one of the states in which "Greek" houses are tax exempt, is at present in the same situation as is found in the United States. Chamberba bill is before the senate of that state. The purpose of this measure is to place fraternity and security bonds on all students being made by the interfraternity council at Indiana University to prevent the passage of the measure which will soon come up for its third reading before the governor.
At the University of Wisconsin, the organized houses have voted to take in reometers during the school terms in 2016. If they meet the expense of paying taxes.
