Kelly Orders
Tax Problems
to be Solved

Lansing, Feb. IS AP- Under
orders from Governor Kelly to do
the job and do It right, the legisla'
ture moved IN today on the problem
OF solving perplexing tax problems
OF long standing.
The lawmakers had explicit In
structlons from the governor TO
clear the laws to provide for the
needs OF state government. provide
relief for financially distressed
municipalities. and not overburden
the taxpaying public.
Kelly Is to confer this afternoon
with u delegation OF mayors and
city managers who have been clam.
oring for financial assistance from
the state. He said he expected to
convince them that state govern
ment intends to help them with
las passed without interference
Of those who might choose to play
partisan or pressure politics.
He told the conferees that the
$50, 900, 900 postwar reserve fund
must not be raided at this time,
that the state will exhaust about
every dollar OF a $4,000, 900 sur
plus expectable in this current
year: and that there Is no guaran-
tee next years income will be
sufficient to cover the states own
needs. let alone provide for big
grants-in aid to local units.
Without explicitly committing
himself. the governor nevertheless
turned the legislators minds In the
direction OF going along with the
tax study committees recommends
tions that the intangible tax be
made more productive and all OF
its revenues turned over to local
units. that the gasoline tax be rails

be empowered TO levy excise taxes

they receive insufficient gasoline

use of an anecdote pointed out that
mo man belongs to himself. but to
those who go before and those who
come after, and IL he disappoints
himself or allows himself to be
disappointed the relationship is
broken. and the nation will fall
He added. "you are a receiving set
for everything which we have ever
had in the past. and IL you will do
your part. Il will be transmitted, so
then. II all life was destroyed this
morning. everything would be re-
moved. In my profession we be-
lieve that possibly $50 or 375 years
from now there won't be any war
providing you do your part because
people are learning more and more
to live together and get along."
He advised the students. Don't
take life seriously, Just laugh when
you are in trouble. a pretty good
philosophy to have is just live to-
day. The thing that we worry

to he solved by the group. He
pointed out that the first considera-
ton was requirement Of students
second, requirements OF employ
ers, and third, capacity Of the
schools.
Norris G. Wiltse. principal OF Up.

that my program must be within

that no one group Of students
$ ould receive training in such a
way that the program is lop-sided.
Mr.. Wiltse asserted that whereas

He also expressed belief that u

The industrialists suggestions in
education included. greater en-
phasis on applied mathematics;
