revenues compared with this
year.
Gov. McKeldin said, 'It Is
worthy to note here that an In
crease of / per cent on sales and
use taxes on the present base
plus q / per cent increase on
income taxes based on 1858 In
comes would produce the neces-
sary revenue"
Needs Are Listed.
The Governor said over SIT
million more would be needed
for services in health, education
and public welfare, and that ed
ucation would get some $13.5
million of this, health more than
$2A million and public welfare
more than $1A million.
State agencies have asked for
$l31 500, 900 from general funds
to operate the next fiscal year.
Their current appropriations are
$110, ,240,64I. The Board Of Rev
enue estimates has scheduled q
meeting next Tuesday to guess
how much money will be avail
able for these appropriations.
The Grotz Commission, In rec
omlnending the four possible
sources Of increased taxation,
said, "AIl increases, regardless
Of source, should ind their way
exclusively into the general fund
Of the State, and should not be
shared with the localities"
The two-page letter to the
Governor said:
Since Maryland Is one Of but
six States which do not have d
State cigarette tax. this tax
might well be first considered as
q source Of needed revenue"
Raise Sales Tax.
It recommended that the
State might restore some Of the
original provisions. Of the sales
and use tax that were eiini-
mated later when the State found
it did not need 20 much revenue.
The sales tax. as originally set
up under the administration Of
former Gov. William Preston
Lane, r., called for q tar Of !
cent on sales from IA to SO cents
and 2 cents from 81 cents to q
dollar. a. later adjustment wiped
out the tax on sales under 81
cents and also eliminated the
tarid on restaurant meals and
several household items.
He pointed out that his idea
Of advancing the due date on
gross utilities tax incomes to
balance the budget this year win
cut the State revenues by some
SIS million next year; that the
/ new Law to distribute more liquor
tar money TO the countries has
lcut expected State revenues, and
that there is no surplus To dig
into for additional money.

NEW YORK. Jan. so.su-
prerne Court Justice Robert H.
jackson solemnly warned to-
night that democracy must not
accept "lawless action from the
right" as an antidote for COM
munism.
But. he said. the Government
can safely move into fields once
left to individual choice. provided
its officials are as much bound by
law as are the people.
Justice Jackson's address was
prepared for o dinner Of the
New York State Bar Association
at it's nth annual meeting. The
association presented him with
an award of merit.
Hitler triumphed. he said, in
a power race that sent moderate
Germans scurrying to the oppo-

Nothing would be more ON
nous for free government than
growth Of q similar negative
and fatalistic attitude which
embraces one extreme to coun-
terbalsnce another" Justice
jackson declared.

Correction

In an article appearing in The
Star Of January 8. it was re-
ported enormously that the
Justice Department would file
with the Supreme Court a petit
ton for re-hearing in the case
Of United States versus Frank
Fryer, q case involving the right
of a defendant to have access to
statements Of Government Wit
nesses before trial.
A petition for re-hearing Of
this case was denied by the SUI
preme Court on January 4, and
no further action has been taken
or Is contemplated by the Justice
Department along this line. The
mistaken report in The Star re-
suited from q misunderstanding
Of information received from the
Justice Department. The Star
regrets the error.
