CONTROVERSY OVER TAX
PROPOSALS

Gov. Herbert r. O'Conor has
shown no signs of being lured into
political snarl that might wreck his
legislative program by endorsing in
full the Rawls Tax Revision Com
missions program for changes in tax
collecting and assessment laws and
systems.
One of the commissions proposals
that centralized state board of
assessments be created within new
department of revenue and taxes
has met with almost uniform disap-
prevail by county members of the
General Assembly.
This is only a part of the COM
missions report which has been
made public.
In discussing the administration
position so far as the Tax Revision
Commission is concerned, the COVER
nor recalled the commission headed
by DR.. Isaiah Bowman, president Of
the Johns Hopkins University, which
drafted for him an administration
reorganization program.
This program the administration
accepted and sponsored in the 1899
session, although the administra-
tons support was withdrawn from
some of it as the session progressed.
In short, the governor said he did
not feel that it was incumbent upon
the administration to accept full re-
sponsibility for what the commission
may report, or, in other words, accept
its proposals in full.

SCHOOL BUS DRIVERS

Twenty-eight school bus drivers
from % counties in the state recently
gathered at the New Mexico State
Teachers College, Silver City, to
study the problems of safe transport
tation of school children. For a
week the men exchanged information
and studied safe driving methods.
Each driver attending the short
course received certificate Of eff
cheney from the College and the New
Mexico Division of Transportation.
Qualified to direct safety work in
the field, these drivers will conduct
county bus meetings and group gath
erings where the work of trying to
make school bus transportation more
safe will be studied.

cossalrTrRH DEMANDS DRASTIC
RnDUCT1oN IN srATE BUD0nr


Baltimore, Jan. e. A demand for
drastic reductions in the State Bud
get 50 as to conserve every tax dol
lar possible to meet the tremendous
cost Of national defense was issued
Thursday by the Citizens State Bud
get Emergency Committee, Mary
land-wide organization OF civic and
association leaders from all parts
OF the State.
The Committee, in public state
ment, urged all organizations in
every County and In Baltimore City
to join in united campaign to in
sist that State Legislators retrench
in local spending for the duration of
the war emergency.
A special resolution calling upon
the General Assembly to eliminate
new spending and to lower taxation
by using available surplus funds to-
falling at least $5,000,000 was dis
tributed throughout the State to in
terest organizations.
The Committee emphasized In its
statement that the new biennial
budget just announced Is not only
the highest in Maryland's history.
but with the proposed new borrowing
by bond issue is $10,OO0,O00 larg-
er than the appropriations for the
biennium endingin September, which
was the previous high.
"The President on January pre-
scented to Congress a record peace
time budget of $17,500, zoo, 000",
the Committee said, creating tre-
mendous burden for the nations tax
payers. That is a burden that must
be carried, as we can not stint In ma
tional preparedness.
"In view Of this requirement, the
Committee feels that every non-es-
sential or non-vital expenditure that
can be delayed or eliminated by
State and local governments should
be postponed for the duration of the
natinal emergency.
with respect to the Maryland
Budget program just released, the
Committee doubts there will be any
actual reduction in real estate tax
bills. The net effect of the reduction
in the rate is more likely to be an
increase because assessments thru
out the State are being increased.
The Governors proposed reduction
in income taxes is a desirable step
in the right direction.
1.-THE Committee feels that 1t
would be real service to retire
some of the bonded debt, thus reduc-
ing interest service charges and pro-
viding real economy.
EVERY member of the Assembly
must carefully analyze the items
called for in the budget, bearing in
mind the staggering national tax
load that his constituents must bear.
Every thinking citizen an dtaxpayer.
should communicate with his legisa
lators and convince him that, for the
time being, all patriotic Americans
are willing to forego non-vital SER
vices.
1.-THE safety of the nation compels
each of us to weigh fully whether
we must make certain expenditures
or can get along without them. When
you have to buy gun to defend your
home, you don't spend the money
on things you can do without. That
illustrates the common-sense manner
in which we must consider OUT pend
ing budget"

Some OF the cash was in bills OF

said, and some OF the money might
be traced should the bandits attempt
to exchange them for bills of smaller
denomination in this vicinity. There
also was a large number of small
bills and considerable coin.
After the holdup, another pay roll
was sent over to the Sanitary Com

and tomorrow.

Senator Taft expressed the view
that any major change in the Neu-

the issue of sending ships into the
presently defined combat areas.

fight out the whole issue of neu-

The Duke planned TO confer this
afternoon with Director James J.

An Embassy dinner with guests
drawn exclusively from the official

definite, but it was thought probably
the Duke would have at least one

official and would take a drive
about the city.

lilies are defense workers in that
employment in Washington is di-
rectly related to the success of the
defense effort
We women realize the Importance
OF keeping up the living standards
of the men and women who are
carrying on the defense program.
Bue We find that national defense
is suffering from the adverse effect
of rising living costs. Rents are
rising. We find that landlords are
profiteering on the defense program.
We have begun to gather instances
of rent increases, which data We
are turning over to the Committee
on Consumers Interests of the Dis
trlct OF Columbia Defense Council.
Families Double Up.
In order TO meet the higher rents.
together with other increases in the
cost OF living, Washington families
are doubling up. Relatives and
friends are sharing single-family
dwelling units in order TO reduce
their rent payments. Overcrowding
is also encouraged by landlords who
find it profitable to convert single
family dwelling units into multiple
family units.
"A study made by the United
States Housing Authority reports
that overcroWding is one of the most
important factors in the relation
between housing and health. The
more tightly together people are
packed in their homes. above all in
their bedrooms and beds. the more
surely does disease which is acquired
by contact infection. introduced by
one member, spread through the
family.
The spread of disease al a time
when Washington hospitals turn
away laboring women for lack of
space would substantially hinder our
defense effort. Over-crowding in
creases infant mortality.

three months looking for a decent
apartment in which her baby can
be born. Nothing has been done
