a concurrent resolution adopted by
the two houses yesterday.
Senator Alice said this morning that
the committee had been in touch with
several so-oalled tax experts but that
no one had been engaged as yet 10 do
the work. II is rumored that some
plan may be worked out similar 10
the old Adams tax law 10 tax invest
ments for school purposes.
II IS estimated by senator Alice that
the S. tax on every citizen under the
tentative school bill would bring I'm
probably 100000; that the - cent
tax In each county On real estate for
school purposes would bring In S6OO,-
600: and the proposed graded income
tax $4,000. making a total or ST.
500 600 Unless some plan Is worked
out TO get in 100000 more, ne ar
CUES that amount would have to be
appropriated from the general fund
or the school program be cut down.
The Joint committees on education
will meet agyiin tonight and tomor-
row might 10 continue going over the
proposed new school law.
