VIRGINIA AUTO
TAX At RECORD

RICHMOND, Va, June 7.-Es-
timating returns from the 10
months past, State Director of
Motor Vehicles John G. Rhodes,
jr., predicted today Virginia would
close the fiscal year on June 80
with the largest motor vehicle tax
revenue in history.
Mr.. Rhodes figures placed the
gasoline tax and license income
for the 10 months at $18,544,452,
or already $51,363 more than the
1882 peak of $18,493, 069.
Barring unforeseen develop
ments, the revenue will run at
least 100000 over last year and
100000 in excess of the budget
estimate Of $16,500,000 set by
State Highway Commissioner
Henry G.. Shirley, he said.
However, the excess funds will
be used to meet an approximate
$2,500,0O0 deficit faced by the
Highway Commission for last
years operation. Economies in
the Commissions operation dur
ing the present year, plus the
100000 excess, will probably
wipe out the deficit, it was ex-
blamed,

BILL
REVISED, SURE
Of PASSAGE
International News Service

international News Service
Concessions granted the foes OF
the er-Rayburn utility hold
ing company bill weakened the
opposition today, but a vote be-
fore next week appeared unlikely.
Republicans planned to hold
the Senate in session over Satur-
day. The measures supporters
conceded the opposition will mus
ter between Is and IS votes
against the bill.
Control Eased
Liberalizing amendments Of
fered by Senator Wheeler CD
of Montana, insured final success
for the measure in the Senate.
Under the liberalizing provi-
sions, power Of the Securities and
Exchange Commission to outlaw
utility holding companies can be
exercised only against companies
whose securities are sold in inter
state commerce, and then only
when such sales are detrimental
to the protection of investors.
Even then, the exemptions pro-
vide that some companies could
continue in operation when they
prove that it is for the public
good.
Exemptions Added
Other exemptions excluded from
the outlawry power utility hold
ing companies engaged predomin-
antly in interstate commerce. Fur.
ther, if the holding company is
predominantly an operating com.
pany in one of more contiguous
States, it would be exempted. An
other exemption would exclude
holding companies only inciden-
tally interested in a public utility.
Despite these concessions, Sena.
tor Hastings (R.) of Delaware,
will make a motion to send the
bill back to committee for revision,
but Administration leaders say his
efforts will be voted down.
