Also, 1t is noted that so many

ANNAPOLIS, Sept. 13.-Gov.
Tawes said today he has no
objection to giving Montgomery
County broader taxing powers.
The Governor also made
these points during the first
Of o new program Of weekly
press conferences:
He will again support reap
portionment legislation at the
1861 session Of the State Legis-
lature.
He had not made up his
mind yet on whether he will
seek reelection in 1862.
The presidential election
probably will be close in Mary
land but he thinks the Demo-
cratic ticket will win and will
"show up we'll" In all sections
Of the State where seven Demo-
cratic Congressmen are run
ming for reelection.
No Real Tax Objection
Montgomery County plans to
ask the 1861 Legislature to give
the county broader taxing
powers, similar to those held
by Baltimore County. which is
the only other so-called home
rule" county in Maryland.
II have no real objection to
giving Montgomery the same
power that Baltimore County
and Baltimore City have" the
Governor said.
The powers would include
authority for Montgomery to
levy a local sales tax.
The Governor said that any
local tax should be collected,
however. by the locality and
not by the State. He said that
the State controllers office
claims it would be almost i'm
possible to handle the local
sales tax collection along with
the State sales tax. Some local
officials have suggested that
the State should collect any
local sales tax and return 1t to
the locality after deductions
for administrative costs.
Bars Income Tax Change
For a sales tax to be adopted
region-wiSe, it would be neces-
sary to pass general legislation
which would also give Prince
Georges authority to levy such
a tax. Gov. Tawes said that
