URGES
APPROPRIATION CUT

AUSTIN, July 9-(P-Belief that
state departments and institutions
can be adequately supported during
the next two years by an appro-
prlatlon not exceeding SAB, 0O0, 900.
and hope that money measures will
not require the maximum rate Of
taxation during 1930-31, were ex-
pressed today by Governor Moody
IN a message to the legislature.
Revenues from all sources during
the biennium cannot exceed more
than $40, 600 1000 under a 80 cent
ad valorem levy, the chief execu-
tive said, and from this figure must
be deducted $1,000 900 to be paid on
outstanding warrants after Sep
TENDER l from next years revenue.
TIE governor said he based the S1t-
100000 figure on the fact that out
standing and unpaid warrants on
July ! amounted to S~4,414y909. and
that the balance in the treasury to
the credit Of the general revenu
fund amounted now to only S2,3l2.-
736.
of course, all these appropria-
tons may not be used" the gover-
nor stated, "but there is no accu-
rate basis OF estimating what will
and what viii not be used. To be
safely within the revenues. it IL
proper to contemplate that What
cannot be paid before September i
VIII have to be Paid after that
date. 1t would seem that at least
Sl,000,0 GOO would have to be paid ont
OF next years revenue"
The governor said a liberal esti-
mate Of the general revnue fund
for the next two years from sources
other than ad valorem taxes was
$4,000 900.
The suggestion that there is no
necessary demand for an extern
SlVe building program for state
supported educational institutions
at TINS time also was advanced.
Inc governor set at rest belief
that subjects other than appropria-
tons would be submitted for corr
slderatlon by the lawmakers BY the
statement that only one other mat
Ter would tie considered. Amend
mentS TO a law recodified in zoos
providing that a rate should be fiy-
ed which would yield 81 per can
lta for all school children within
the scholastic age, were suggested
n the message, with the explana-
uon that a suit involving payment
OF state aid to the public school
system was threatened unless fhe
statute was revised.

JONES WOULD
COMPEL AUTO
LIABILITY

Senator Wesley Jones, Of Wash
ington, today introduced in the
Senate a bill setting up q form
Of compulsory automobile insur'
ance, which would be admin.
istered under the Employees Com
penSation Commission.
The bill would require every
owner of an automobile to secure
the payment of compensation to
persons injured or killed by his
vehicle without regard to fault
or the cause of the injury, except
where the person injured or
killed was intoxicated or intended
to commit suicide.
The rates at which the vehicle
owners would obtain the insur-
ance would be determined by The
Compensation Commission and
would be based on an estimate OF
the annual expenditures of the
insurance fund thus created.
In order to start the fund the
bill authorizes an appropriation
Of $4,000, which would be placed
back in the Treasury when the
surplus Of the insurance fund
reached a figure of $4,000.
Owners of motor vehicles apply
ing for legislation in the District
would be required to show that
they had secured compensation
as required by the act before
their cars would be registered.
A schedule of rates for the
payment of compensation to per
sons injured by motor vehicles Is
contained in the bill. The meas
ure also provides the times at
which money shall be paid and
the method of payment to
beneficiaries in the event Of
death.

 Assemblyman Horace N. Stone, who has made repeated attempts 10 confine the inquiry 10 the law itself precipitated heated discussion when Professor James C. Ronbrght questioned George K. NanNamee on commission water policy
 Stone objected to discussion of public service commission policy on the grounds that it was not sermane to the inquiry
