Legislative delegations vent on
record against tax increases. =

posed 1896 200, 900 budget. with
its $168, 200. 900 tax rise, at an un-
precedented conference with 102
Of 118 Republican legislators after
buffet supper last night at the
executive mansion.
They said Gov. Dewey asked for
no vote commitments from legis-
lators on his fiscal program and
none were offered. They added
that the Governor explained this
his record-high budget could not
be trimmed without impairing
essential State services.
The conference followed q de-
cision over the week end by the
.all-Republican Westchester Coun-
ty bloc Of six Assemblymen and
three Senators to fight the pro-
posed 1-cent per gallon increase
in the State gasoline tax. now 4
cents. and to demand a reduction
in the proposed 662s per cent in

Opposition by the seven Erie
County COP legislators is con-
centrated against the gasoline tax

The two county delegations,
with minority Democrats. could
defeat Gov. Dewey's fiscal pro-
gram. The Republican 1925 edge
in the Senate and the 87-63
