STATE FACES
Peril OF HUGE
TAXLEvY tilt
Possibility of 68-Cent Rate
Rises, With Increase in
School lmpoSt.
MEETING ON JUNE 10
EquaIizing of Educational
Opportunity Is Aim of
Advocates.

Possibility of a 6S-cent state tax
rate (highest in history loomed to-
day as plans for the joint meeting
of the state aid and tax survey COM
mittees were announced.
The meeting is scheduled for the
senate chamber at the statehouse
June 10.
Saturday the state aid committee
discussed plans which would in
crease the present state school levy
of cents to from "a to As cents.
Would Reach 6S Cents
With the present state rate of
20 cents (Which includes the 7-cent
school levy, added to the Accent
plan, the total state rate would be
SO cents on each Sl00 worth of tax
able property in the entire state.
The, high state rate idea follows
from the plan for the distribution of
state funds for the purpose Of equal
izing educational opportunity in In
diana as presented to the commit
tee by Director j. w. Jones of the
research division of the Indiana
State Teachers college and r. w.
Holmstedt, assistant professor of
education at Indiana university.
With cooperation of the depart
ment of public instruction and Roy
P. Wisehart, state superintendent,
data was gathered from all schools
of the state and a standardized
teaching unit" plan worked out.
Lifts School Burden
1t is on the basis of this teaching
unit that the state levy would be
lifted to finance common school ed
ucation on a statewide, rather than
local, plan.
The state levy increase would be
expected to be made up to the tax
payer by lifting the local school tax
burden.
A step-rate plan Of financing is
proposed with the state furnishing
$11,961,3 42 the first biennium, $15,-
399, 1876 the second, and $19,284 456
the third. The fourth and succeed
ing bienniums would require $23,-
223,591, plus SUCH additional
amounts each year as would result
from an increased number of teach
ing units.
The local equalization rate to
finance the teaching unit standard
lied program has been set by the
surveyors at IS cents. This can be
added to by local rate increases,
quirements are demanded by the
community.
Maximum additions Of SO, 80, 81
and 76 cents are set out for the
four periods. The state rate during
this time would be "a, &c, 80 and 46
cents under the plan.
In each instance the grand total
of local equalization rate, additions
and state rates would reach $1.57.

JOSEPH II. BAIRD
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The
senate foreign relations committee
was called in executive session to-
day to determine when it will re-
port the London naval treaty to
the senate for ratification.
Meanwhile, treaty opponents we're
circulating a round-robin designed
to delay a vote until after the No
vember elections, and Senator
Johnson (Rep., Cali, one of the
opposition leaders, delivered a gen.
eral blast against the instrument.
Chairman Borah of foreign rela-
tons committee hopes to be able to
report the treaty to the senate Sat-
urday, though indications of a Bit
ter fight to prevent consideration of
the instrument at this session we're
increasing early today.
Senators would vouchsafe little
information about the round-robin,
as to either its exact contents or
signers. 1t was learned, however,
that at least two anti-treaty sena-
tors. Mcclellan Dem, TENN and
Oddie Rep., New have signed it.

~ MORRIS DE HAVEN TRACY
Tr,it.d Press StaH CorreSnondent

RALEIGH, N. c.. June 9.-North
Carolina today looked forward to
another spirited campaign leading
to the general election in November.
At that time Democrats and Re-
publicans will test strength for the
first time since 1928, when Herbert
Hoover won the state and broke
the solid south.
The test will come with Josiah w.
w. Bailey leading the Democratic
forces as their candidate for United
States senator.
George Pritchard. whose father
thirty years ago served the state in
the senate. apparently is the Repub-
lican choice.
Thus far, with about 5000 Repub-
lean votes counted, Pritchard has a
lead Of approximately 1900 over
George Butler, his nearest Compel
tor. Irving Tucker is third and the
Rev. Grady Dorset fourth.
Bailey's defeat of Senator Sim
mons was decisive. Returns from
1886 of the states 1906 precincts
thus far reported give Bailey q plu-
rality of 63,9S3.
His vote at this stage of the count
is 1S5.9S0 against 12l ,997 for SIM
mons. Estep. wet, polled less than
1000 votes.

TARIFF SPECTER RISES
North Carolina RepudiateS
Democrat Chief Who
Fought Al Smith.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 9.-Fre-
quency witI which senatorial lead
ers are being defeated in primary
elections is causing something akin
to CONSERVATION in the senate as
that body nears a final vote on the
Smoot-Hawley tariff bill.
There is wonder in the minds of
some senators as to whether there
is any connection between the cleo
toral uprisings which have brought
successive defeats to Senator
Charles .. Deneen (Rep, Ill) g.,
Joseph r. Grundy CRep.. Pa. Sad
now Furnitold Simmons Oem.,
". c..
The overwhelming defeat of Sim
mons, who strenuously opposed
Governor Alfred E. Smith, Demo-
cratic presidential nominee in
1928. was interpreted here as in
dicating a Strengthening of the old
line southern Democratic party.
Issues Are Unrelated
It was recalled that Virginia
Democrats last summer defeated
the gubernatorial candidate of the
Smith forces and that Senator
j. Thomas Hef1in, another Smith
opponent, was barred from the
democratic ticket in Alabama.
Simmons defeat was all the more
marked because of the 111,011 ma
iority which he rolled up in the
1924 elections against his Republican
opponent, indicating solid support
of the Democratic party.
While senators know the issues
in the widely separated communities
were unrelated, they are asking
themselves if there is a general I'M
rest and dissatisfaction among the
people.
Their history teaches them it has
not been unusual for an aroused
electorate to turn its leaders out
unfortunately while a satisfied
electorate tends to support the
existing order.
Eagerness for Action
Another enigma is that while
senator's are being moved down.
members of the house are being re-
nominated with comparative ease.
With the primaries only begun
and many other congressman yet
to face their constituents, there is
further eagerness among senators
to get the tariff and London treaty
out of the way so the repairing OF
broken fences back home can be
undertaken speedily.
Recent political happenings may
have no obvious connection with the
tariff to the outsider, but they have
to senators who feel their politicai
future in coming primaries may be
bound up in the tariff vote.
Little Weekend Change
Little change was noted over the
weekend in the close vote lineup.
Some opponents of the bill we're
inclined to agree with the admin
istration leaders that the measure
will pass by a two-vote margin and
in all events by The vote of Vice
President Curtis in case of a tie.
Curtis has not indicated how he
will vote. An informal poll showed
a 1916 tie with four senators doubt
full.
The ballot is expected to be
taken Thursday or Friday.
