that he will not only vote to sus-
tain Governor Cones veto of the
repeal of the gross receipts tax
but will introduce another bill in
creasing the levy from the present
one-half of one per cent to two
per cent. Certain other groups in
the state are now openly advocat-
ing a transactions tax, and a
treasure hunt for new sources of
revenue is now on.
Only a few of the major prob
lens reviewed above show the
tremendous task faced by Cover
nor Holland and the 1941 legis-
lature. Wise leadership and earn
est effort must unite in common
purpose if these problems are to
be solved.

of December, white ones during
the holidays while Clair Brown
was here, and these now. THAT
one there is the Darling plum +,
she said, solving another prob
lem that had puzzled us. There
was some conversation about the
ownership of these abandoned
homes and lands, and we learned
that the house by which we stood
happened to belong to the lady
from whom Mr.. Dahle had pur-
chased his home in Key West.
"The truck won't drive back to
my place., said Mrs. Shanahan;
II tell them to leave the goods
on the porch here and I'll get it,.
1t was in plain sight of the main
on the old road that,
like a double track, ran close be-
side it.

by the state of the odd-cents
break at the tracks, a licensing
of gambling establishments un-
der state supervision, a state in
come tax, a tax on jock organs,
and any other kind of tax pro-
.ponents can think of to bring in
money.
Concerning Divorce Law
Florida's 9O-day residence di-
vorce law, which has made this
state mecca for unhappy spous-
es and q gold mine for divorce
lawyers, is slated for battering
at this session. Another domestic
law giving wives equal rights
with theri husbands in property
management and contractural
transactions will be proposed and
bitterly debated.
Jock joints will hold the spot
light for while through legis-
lative proposals for their elimina-
ton from the social scheme, in
creased licenses, and stricter con-
troll. The Lake County League
of Municipalities are sponsoring
a bill which would prohibit all
look joints" and liquor selling
outside of the corporate limits of
the towns of Lake County.
Legislators from South Florida
will attempt again to have a state
hospital for the treatment of per-
sons mentally ill established in
the southern or central part of
the state Similar proposals have
been made before without sue
cess.
Two new proposed laws will be
introduced affecting motorists.
The first will increase drivers
licenses from fifty cents to one
dollar for private operators. 1t
has the support of the county
judges and receipts will be used
to pay the judges more for issuing
the license, increase the number
of patrolmen, and establish a
statewide radio system for police
work.
The second proposed law will
require two motor vehicle inSpec-
tons each year and the main
tenance of every motor vehicle in
condition which will
assure safe operation on the high
ways.
Taxation Matters
But the biggest problem con-
fronting the legislature is taxa
ton in general. With the gen.
eral fund in the red, state ad
valorem taxes abolished, and Gov
ernor Holland and many legis-
lators pledged to repeal the gross
receipts tax, either new sources
of revenue will have to be found
or some means of increasing col
lections from present sources will
have to be devised. An increase
in the budget for schools, state in
situations and departments will
add to the problem, and the cost
of the new Parole Commission
will have to be provided for.
Senator Amos Lewis from Jack
son County is quoted as saying

Properly Assessments

The second Brookings proposal
is the Equalization of property
assessments, less compromise
with delinquent taxes. penalties
for failure to pay. In support
of this proposal it says: Equal
cation of assessments as between
counties and as between govern
mental divisions within a county
should be required by law to be
made by some appropriate state
administrative agency. Obvious
ly taxing officials and tax-dis-
pensing officials or certain groups
of taxpayers will not take kindly
to the idea of having a state
board in Tallahassee supervise
the assessments made in their
governmental divisions.
These same groups plus the
bondholders will scrutinize with
a great deal of care any proposed
legislation to carry out the third
step recommended by the Brook
ings Institute which is State
control of the funded debt re-
funding and adjustment of cities,
district and other taxing agen-
cies''.
A number of old age pension
bills will be submitted to the
legislature, proposing payments
of from $40 to $50 per month and
decreasing the age limit to 90
years, Plans for raising the
necessary money to provide these
pensions will include a general
transactions tax of three percent,
luxury tax on cigarettes, chew

PRESENT SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE

Continued from Page One)
more than IA million dollars to
put our highways in proper con-
dition to meet the neels of the
state.
Nine-Point Program
Governor Spessard Holland has
proposed a nine-point program,
the principal item of which gives
the State Road Department four
cents instead of the three it now
receives and gives the counties
two cents for the payment of road
and bridge bonds in the place of
the three cents they now receive.
But the Association of County
Commissioners is bitterly oppos-
ing this proposed changed dis
tribution, claiming that such &C.
ton will bankrupt the counties
and necessitate the levying of
unbearable taxes upon county
taxpayers. Bond-holders, desir-
ing the best possible security for
their bonds, will also be active in
shaping legislative action on gas
tax legislation.
The three major steps proposed
by the Brookings Institute and
which have the tacit approval of
Governor Holland are certain to
be the subject of prolonged dis
cussions. The first recommends
ton proposes an independent,
strict budget control of all funds
and disbursed. This is,
in substance, the zone pet treas
ury" idea advanced by Governor
Cone two years ago and which
never got beyond the incubation
state.
This proposal would abolish
the system of continuing appro-
priations and earmarked rev.
enues, which the Brookings In
Stitute says is San outstanding
evil". The Institute declared: 'It
tends to expand since the bene-
ficiries of more and more func-
tons seek to secure assured fl
nancing, to escape legislative con-
troll and to tap the general rev.
enue fund in case of shortage.
But any proposed act to place
this recommendation in our laws
of l94l will be passed only over
the dead bodies of the "bene-
ficiaries" of earmarked funds.
For instance, citrus growers are
taxed on every box of fruit and
such taxes are earmarked for use
by the Citrus Commission for ad-
vertising purposes. They will
tell the legislators in no uncer-
tain terms that they pay this tax
for that specific purpose and that
they do not intend to see this
spent for schools, old age
pensions or for any purpose other
than advertising citrus fruits.
And this group is only one of
the many "beneficiaries' who
will be heard from before such a
budget control act can be enact
