Constitutionality of exemption. — Statute authorizing issuance of revenue bonds by municipality for industrial development and providing that bonds so authorized, the income therefrom, etc., shall be exempt from all taxation by state or any subdivision, was not violation of constitutional provision requiring that taxes be equal and uniform insofar as the exemption was confined to municipal property. Village of Deming v. Hosdreg Co., 1956-NMSC-111, 62 N.M. 18, 303 P.2d 920.
Insertion of a corporate guarantee into the bonds is inconsistent with the provisions of the Industrial Revenue Bond Act that allow a tax exemption for the bonds. 1960 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 60-219.
