this statement if you knew me and

Likewise, airplanes speeded certified

jailed, and to Minneapolis, where at
least five of those indicted are either
held or hunted.

said Keenan,, in a dramatic statement
at the close of the five-hour grand jury

PROPOSED TAX PLAN
OPPOSED BY OHIOAN
Graves Program for U. S. to Allo-
cate Sums to States Held
Impractical.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, December 90
Opposition to the proposal Of Mark
Graves, president of the New York Tax
Commission, that the Federal Govern
ment levy income, sale, gasoline and
LIQUOR taxes. with an ALLEGATION of a
portion of the revenues back to the
States, was expressed yesterday by Carl
ton S. DarguSch, vice chairman of the
Ohio Tax Commission.
Pointing out that Graves was quoted
as recommending that the States with
draw from these fields of taxation, Dar-
gusch said:
Our Federal Constitution was created
on the theory that the several States
are sovereign. Before yielding any
more ground to the Federal Govern
ment, the States should determine for
themselves whether their sovereignty
shall be further emasculated by sur
rendering large portion of the taxing
power of the States to the Federal Gov
eminent.
Speaking for Ohio, I cannot sub
scribe to a plan which would leave en-
tirely to the discretion of Congress the
amount that Ohio would receive from
the Federal taxes imposed. I could
agree with Mr.. Graves in so far as
ALLEGATION is concerned If he had pro-
posed an amendment to the Federal
Constitution fixing absolutely the allo-
cation to the States. so that all danger
of tampering would be removed and the
industrial States not stalemated by Sec
tional fights in Congress over the dis
tribution of revenues"
