NO. 92 A i ii i EXCLUSIVE PRESS, PRESS, CONSOLIDATED PRESS ASSOCIATION HOME 1 EDITION ESTABLISHED 1863 MASSILLON, OHIO, 6, 1933 (TEN PAGES) TWO CENTS ILL FALL SHORT Figures Revenues Will Not Be Sufficient for Schools, Relief GETS ESTIMATES Special Session May Be Called to provide Additional Funds COLUMBUS, July 6. senate's taxation program for school and poor relief will fail by one-fourth to one-third to 'produce sufficient revenues to fulfill the state's obligation, Governor George White announced, today. This failure to produce sufficient properly to finance the schools and unemployment relief will necessitate a special session of the legislature, this fall, to provide foi- additional revenues; the governor indicated.

Below Senate Figures Governor White based his ment on estimates the amount of revenue each bill will produce as prepared for him by the state tax commission'. Sponsors of the senate's tax program estimated it would yield from to $30,300,000 a year, but the tax commission's estimate is to $20,650,000. The governor did not include in the senate program the additional $6,000.000 to be provided for schools under a new allocation of revenues from' the intangible tax law. He contended this was an administration measure and a part of the senate program though the senate had so considered it. Beer and Cigaret Under--the governors estimate, schools 'will receive $13,800,000 from the beer pap and cigaret with 'the from intangible taxes will provide of -which will be allocated back to all districts on a basis of daily attSdaance of pupils.

"On the basis-of-nyaximum-inx mission the senate's tax program' will provide only $0,850,000 for poor relief, the governor said, state short of the $12,000,000 pledged the governor to the federal government as the state's share in furnishing rslief lor the unemployed during the current year. estimate for poor relief is made on the basis nf the new tax balls effective as of July 1. Most of them will not become effective until'the middla of July and one not until "It might be noted," the governor said, "that there is not- provision for compulsory reduction of tax levies on real estate by reason of the state's contribution except in the case of weak -school districts according to the allocation provided in the senate program." Sees Sales Tax The governor indicated he considered the selective sales taxes included in the senate program virtually as far reaching as-his proposed, but rejected sales tax. "A hasty reading of the 'bills in indicates the selective sales levies included almost as many merchants and other vendors subject to inspection by the conimission's agents, as would have been the case under the sales tax plan advocated by me," he commented. "It appears that itr the definition of preparations are included which are sold at every department store, drug store, confectionary and grocery store.

"Thorough inspection under the beer cap tax law require examination merchant selling beer. As you know, this comprehends many thousands of vendors licensed under the liquor control act." More than two dozen important measures will be given the final touches of legislative enactment next Monday and sent to Governor White: The batch includes the senate's taxation projrram for relief and schools and other measures pass. ed 'during the last days of the le-, gislature before it ended its six- months session last Sunday morning. Monday the presiding officers, with few members of each house will meet in a perfunctory session at which they will sign the measures Then some one will move adjournment, ending the session officially. Probably for equal importance to the taxation program are the three bills designed to enable the senate and its political subdivisions to cooperate jn the fullest extent with the federal government in carrying out the purposes, of the national recovery act.

France and other members of the European gold bloc advo- Ca formal for the major activities' of the conference. The morning session of the steering committee lasted three hours arid a half but was unable to arrive at a decision.

The evening session however was comparatively brief ending in triumph for the American position. New Program Drafted In the meantime a drafting committee, of which Secretary Hull was a member, had been at work on a proposed program of future activities for the parley. The conference" therefore will continue in session.for the discussion of economic questions, except tariffs. The agenda for the conclave thus was substantially modified from its original form when the conference met June 12. An official communique issued on behalf of the steering committee said: "Believing that the bureau (steering committee, is firmly convinced that the work of the conference should be carried on to all possible extent and as rapidly as possible, and in-view of recent circumstances that countries on gold find themselves obliged to declare that they cannot take part for the moment in any monetary questions, "Tlie bureau is In unanimous accord that, "First, every sub-committee should meet as soon as possible to make up list of 'questions on which discussion can be carried on with most useful results, "Second, to meet as soon as reports of sub-committees have been received in order to make recommendations for the arrangements which ouffht to be made for the future work of the conference."

Om of the bitterest conflicts yet seen at this dramatic congress of na- ozzoli tions at once developed, raging for three and a half hours before the exhausted participants adjourned for lunch without decision. Confusion Reigns Mopping their brows as they came out of the session, delegates indicated that not only no decisions had been reached but that the situation was wholly confused. Unofficially it was stated the position was somewhat as follows: France and her gold allies were unwilling to concede that the conference should continue to deal with any question except those relating to marketing and production.

The gold countries adamantly opposed any discusslqn of tariffs or monetary problems. The United States, Canada and Sweden were equally insistent that many other matters could be dealt with successfully. It -was understood Prime Minister MacDsnald, chairman of the conclave and of the committee, suggested the monetary commis- sion be asked to consider whether the jfold bloc program would leave sufficient work to warrent continuance of the conference. Fears that the smaller states, most of whom were not represented in the committee would oppose adjournment in the plenary sessions, were said to have strengthened the hand of delegations which were urging that the parley keen marching.
