and none to the State, and that
q bigger tax increase would be
necessary next year II none Is
adopted this year.
Despite the big surplus, Gov,
Tawes said the State faces q
"bleak-looking picture" for the
fiscal year of 1923. He said
that expenditures are out rum
ming revenues and that II q
tax increase is not adopted this
year-providing the James pro-
gram is approved by the Legis-
lature-it may require one twice
as big next year.
Political Move Charged
Some opponents Of the tax
program have said that Gov,
Tawes' proposal is q political
move to keep from raising
taxes in 1862, an election year,
r While supporting the James
Plan this time, Gov. Tawes said
the localities had better start
looking for their own revenues
in the future. He said localities
should expand their own taxing
programs-so long as they stay
away from the sales and in
come taxes-inStead Of coming
to the State for more money.
Aside from the James pro-
gram. the main new features
of Gov. Tawes spending pro-
gram were in the health and
welfare field. Here he pro-
posed:
/. That the State increase
its contributions to the total
health programs Of the locali-
ties. Under the present ar
rangement. the State provides
aid for only q minimum pro-
gram. The new proposal means
that if q locality wants to
adopt a health program above
the minimum standards the
State will foot part of the extra
bill on the same sharing basis
that 1t now helps with. the
minimum program. Ezg
2. That the State provide 50
per cent Of the cost Of any local
"day-care" program for the
mentally retarded. A Cover
nor's aide said this is in line
with trends away from big
institutional centerS." Several
counties are considering the
establishment Of day centers.
3. A SIS million program Of
direct grants to aid in the con-
struction of private, non-profit
nursing homes.
4. Additional payments total
ing 1921 900 for unusual nurs-
ing care and treatments in
nursing homes and for pay
ments to physicians who treat
patients in nursing homes.

will not go along with it.
Among the taxes mentioned
by the council are local sales
and income levies. Not only
does this have the opposition
of some Of the county legislat-
|ors, but Gov. Tawes has put
his foot down firmly against
invasion Of these two fields by
localities.
