STATE DEFICIT s577,O74
Controllers Report Shows Condi-
ton OF Treasury


AS members of the Legislature,
with the budget for 1936-1937 in
hand, prepared to embark on series
of executive sessions and hearings,
William S. Gordy, Jr., State Comp
troller, informed them that the State
ended January with deficit OF
S57,O74.3S in operating accounts.
Legislation is in process to AFFORD
immediate relief from the strained
cash position of the treasury and of
set the impending $2,300,00O deficit
for the current fiscal year. This
legislation includes sale of the States
Northern Central Railway annuity
and imposition of 81 barrel beer
tax.
Governor Nice, in his budget, made
no provision for meeting the deficit,
but the annuity, if sold, is expected
to produce $2,571, 900, and the beer
tax approximately $4,000 a month
for the remainder of the fiscal year
A. the beginning of the calendar
year (January u the State had an
operating surplus of $132,993.7O
Mr.. Gordy's report disclosed.
That was made up of surplus in
the special funds, which totaleo
S1,O13,8O6. 20, while the general
fund accounts of the Treasury were
SSSO,812.5O in the red.
At the end of the month, however
the general fund deficit had mounted
to S1,23O,103.01, and available spe
cial funds had fallen to $3.50, 028.63
This was accounted for by heav,
drains to meet 1885 appropriations
both from the general and specia
funds. From the general treasur!
S1,322,749.95, and from specia
funds 81, 441, 94O.7O was paid out tt
various departments.
The Comptroller's report showed
also that uncollected taxes for thu
fiscal year in which the State il
operating amounted to $3.50,
lO71.31, while the total, with arrears
amounts to S. ,849,513.19.

FARM BUREAU OPPOSES DIVER.
SION OF GAS TAX

Believing that the State of Mary
land lags behind some of its neighbor
states in the matter of tax legislation
and that available sources of public
revenue are being overlooked. the
Maryland Farm Bureau Federation,
through it's secretary, Mr.. G. E. Wise,
Jr., is criticising the proposal OF the
Governors Tax Commission to divert
100000 annually of the States
gasoline tax money.
In commenting upon the commits
sion's proposal to set aside approx
mately three-quarters of million
dollars of state road funds with
which to amortize the projected S.
100000 bond issue alleged to be re-
quired by, the State for unemploy-
ment relief and other purposes dur
ing the next two years, Mr.. Wise
pointed out thai the State of Mary
land could, by following the example
of other states in adopting modern
income-tax legislation and more
effective inheritance tax law, realize
very substantial increases in it's pub
lie revenue. Mr.. Wise also called
attention to the fact that the state
road funds were raised by special
purpose" taxes Con motor fueD and
that part of these funds are supposed
to go towards the improving of later
al roads in the state.
Sixty per cent of the farmers in
Maryland, he said, are still on dirt
roads, and any diversion of gas tax
money for extraneous purposes
would most certainly cripple our
roads program.

HIGHWAY USERS OPPOSE DI
VERSION OF ROAD FUNDS

Baltimore, Feb. Economical
ly unsound and grossly unfair tt
more than $4,000 highway workers
and 100000 motorists of Maryland
was terse comment made today by
John A. White, executive secretary
of the newly formed Highway Users
Conference of Maryland in reviewing
Governor Nice's budget message, de
livered Tuesday to the Genera
Assembly.
Weeks ago, seeing the dark clouds
of diversion looming on the horizon
group of representative highway
users got together to formulate g
plan of action. The result. was the
recently organized Highway Users
Conference, which will combat what
the Conference terms "a breach OF
faith" in diverting, either directly OF
indirectly, motor funds to other than
highway purposes. With II or
CARNATIONS actually represented
among them the two automobile
clubs-and Is affiliated units, the
Conference has backing of more
than $4,000 individuals.
Governor Nice's budget recon-
mendations will directly curtail a
major activity of our government, :"
said Mr.. White. HE apparently has
disregarded the primary purpose for
which the State Roads Commission
and motor revenues were originally
established: the use of motor money
to provide maximum of safety and
efficiency in highways for those who
are footing the bill.
His proposed curtailment of con-
struction will destroy an existing
volume of business badly needed at
this time. This is in direct contra
distinction to the economic truth
recognized by the national Admin
istration that only through employ
ment and business stimulation can
our tax Golfers be replenished"
Mr.. White, who also representa- the
Society of Automotive Engineers,
continued, "the Highway Users Con-
ference of Maryland intends 70 fight
this diversion at every point. 1t is
time for militant action. Motorists
as special group should not pay for
road and bond issue. already amor
tized."
Apparently the Governor gave no
consideration to the financing sitheE

MOVE FOR TWO DOLLAR AUTO
TAGS

State Senator Harry T. Phoebus
(Rep., Somerset) has introduced in
the Senate a measure calling for re-
duction of automobile tag fees to a
50 fiat rate. Governor Nice will is
sue a statement outlining the rea-
sons why he could not, in the bud

figure.
Provision has been made in the
budget, however, for cutting the
motor registration fees from 80
cents to 30 cents per horsepower,
lowering the average cost for tags
from is.s0 to $40.
