Sterling Is Against
Property Tax Increase

a way to avoid raising the tax rate.
but he has not disclosed what t
will be.
Out OF the five possible ways 10
balance the budget this year with
out raising the 27-cent tax limit 70
somewhere near its 35-cent limit,
speculation centered upon that Of a
statute TO authorize the highway
fund TO advance the general revenue
fund enough money to overcome :he
deficit until new state taxes are paid
in Oct. Is.
New tax levies were excluded from
the list by Gov. Sterling's earlier
statement.
The five possible ways we're:
Advance funds from the ANYWAY
department.
Postpone 1892 general fund
building appropriations for a year
Reinvoke the five and ten per
cent salary cuts voted by the house
in May but finally abandoned.
Shift the occupation taxes 70 other
than present funds TO which they
cie credited.
Extensive consolidation OF bureaus
and departments.
Practical consideration suggested
that the only one OF these steps fol-
which time remained in the last
10 days OF the session, is that OF a
statute 10 authorize loans from the
highway fund. All the building items
are for eleemosynary institutions
and were said to be needed badly
The highway department, up II
the July-AuClst commission session
has been awarding over $4,000. 900
a month OF new construction
though local funds and fedora.
funds are included in the totals.
A slowing-down of contracts fol-
work during the winter was in pros
pect. The state already has taken
advantage Of the S.. 1000. 900 advance
Of federal funds. TO be repaid later
by deductions from future years, IN
order to stimulate public construc-
ton during the depression.

DRY CAMPAIGN
IS PREDICTED

WASHINGTON, July 3. -tPl-
The prediction that both Republican
and democratic parties would be
strongly dry in 1882 campaigns II
political leaders heed the results
OF the wet drive in state legislature
this year was made today In a
statement by the National Women's
Christian Temperance union.
Another statement by Or. Eugene
L. Crawford, secretary OF the
Methodist Board Of Temperance and
Social Service. said:
The church people Of the
south and especially the member
ship of the Methodist Episcopal
church south do not intend TO
abandon for the 1882 campaign
those principles to which they
have adhered through many de-
cadeS.
Dry Enforcement
This board and the constituency
which II represents plan 70 be
entirely consistent with their past
records in their cooperation with
the w. c. r. U. and the antI-saloon
league and with ether temperance
groups representing the various
churches in all proper and neces-
sary action for the support OF the
eighteenth amendment and for its
enforcement by the legally consti-
tuted authorities
The w. c. T. U. statement de-
clared that the campaign TO
smash prohibition state by state"
in the legislatures is a fizzle.'
The fate Of the wet drive this
year" IL continued. "convinceS the
w. G. T. U. that political misfor-
tune turks in repeal or modiflca-
ton.
Nearly 1000 state Legislators,
fresh from the people, met this
year; considered lis wet measures.
and adjourned without modifying
or repeating one line Of any pro-
hibition law. The only successful
wet measures were eleven in a
number from six states, calling for
referenda on the 18th amendment
or asking congress TO call ccnstitu-
tional conventions.
Meager Promises
They are indirect aud nom
mandatory. have no effect on
existing law. and afford meager
promise to wet leaders.
New York is responsible for five
OF these eleven gestures: the re-
naming half dozen coming from
the five states OF Massachusetts.
Connecticut. Rhode Island, WiscOu-
sin and wyoming
II added the wet drive appeared to
the w. G. T. u. 10 have turned into
a device for staging non-mandatnry
smoke screen referenda under which
small-time politicians can run for
office and avoid discussing their
real qualifications.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.@Pi-
The Wickersham commission to-
day coupled a plea for $500 TO
carry on its incompleted study OF

that preliminary investigation had
shown prohibition cases to domi-
nate the entire volume OF criminal
proceedings in one state.
In 2 letter TO Pres. Hoover,
Chmn. Wickersham said the COM
mission had thought 1t "inexped-
lent to apply 70 congress for more
funds. He indicated the needed
sum, If raised. would be turned
over to the American Law insti-
tute.
The report included as a sample
a tentative analysis" OF conditions
in Connecticut in which II was as
serted that the total increase in
the number OF crimes has been TAX
en- up by p%rihibition cases"
Warning that the results from
n district were not enough TO
justify conclusions for all. the re-
port said nevertheless that the pro-
hibition law had given rise to "a
very special treatment" OF its cases
in the courts in which fines played
tual imprisonments.
In his letter Wickersham inform
a heavy role as compared with &C
cd the president that the Rookie
Teller Foundation had agreed to do
nate half the $4,000 needed to
carry Oh the court study. provided
the other half would be raised
from other sources and the Ameri-
can Law institute step Into the
