Hopes Increase
For 2O% Virginia
Income Tax Cut
State General Fund
Revenues Possible
OF $1O5 Millions
BY tho Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, June 26.-
Hope for a 20 per cent automatic
reduction in State income tax pay
|ments next December bobbed ur
again today.
| The optimism was based on the
good chance" expressed In the
office of the State controller that
general fund revenues would hit
l$105 million.
It was generally accepted that
the fand-the basic pot into which
most taxes go and from which
most operating expenses of the
State are drawn-would 60 over
$103 million.
But until yesterday, the book
keepers were doubtful the fund
would hit the level necessary for
the maximum reduction under the
Byrd automatic tax reduction bill.
Provisions Of Act.
The bill. passed by the last ses-
sion of the General Assembly, pro-
Ivides for a 10 per cent reduction
lin individual and corporate income
tax payments when the general
fund goes over 500 million, is
|per cent when it goes over $103
million, and 20 per cent when 1t
passes $105 million.
The reduction will be proclaimed
|officially by Gov. Battle in Au-
gust.
What shifted opinion to the
bright side on the reduction issue
was a steady stream of t'little bits
OF revenue"-particularly from
local officials.
Already counted up are revenues
near the $l04 million mark. More
money can come in during the
next five days and there still is
plenty that the bookkeepers have
not had an opportunity to put
on the books. Most of these are
fees for deeds and other items
handled by local clerks, fines and
costs collected by trial justices and
some late tax payments and fees
collected by local treasurers.
Also some Of the beer tax money
has not yet been added in.
Means Little To Many.
For about 80 per cent of the
individual income tax, even the
20 per cent reduction will mean
cutting of less than $40 from
their bills.
And the average for this group
those who had a taxable in
come OF $4,000 a year or less
would be a reduction of about SIS.
That is. If the 20 per cent reduce
tion works out. If the reduction
is only Is per cent. the average
cut would be only about $2.75.
About 100000 taxpayers are I'M
that category. Last year, they
paid an average tax of $22.49, but
it is expected to be slightly higher
this year.
For some $4,000 taxpayers with
taxable incomes between $3. 900
and $1,000, the average reduction
will be SIG If 20 per cent or sal
If Is per cent.
About 6 per cent of the income
taxpayers, those in the more than
5000 taxable income class, will
get more than half of the SIS mil
lion in reductions to be made toI
individuals If the 40 per cent rel
duction goes through. These re-
turns win vary widely with the

DENVER, (P)-Use of the whip will no. longer be allowed in Colo rado's prison, the state institution board chas decide.
 The board met Monday to consider the whipping of six convicts, five of whom last week took part in a prison riot and shot two guards.
 It outlawed the whip, but re- fused to order charges against Warden Roy Best who ordered the harsh discipline.
 Governor Thornton, acting on the boards suggestion, said that if charges were brought against the warden they would have to be the work of the district attor- ney in the prison town, J. Stump Witcher of Canon City.

 Whether He Posted Bond For Communist Leaders

 Field was brought before the Senators from New York where he is serving a 9O-day jail term for contempt of court. That sen- tence was given him for refusing to tell a federal judge who con- tributed to the Civil Rights Con- gress bail fund.
