S2 THE MORNING HERALD, HAGERSTOWN, MD. TvtKliy, Ftbrmry 15, 1 4 Md. Tax Plan Must Be Modified To Pass This Session' By LOUIS G. PANOS Atsociated Prets Writer ANNAPOLIS (AP) presiding officers of the Maryland Legislature, said Monday the Cooper-Hughes tax reform plan must be modified if it is to be enacted in this session. Senate President William S.

James and House Speaker Marvin Mandel told a news conference they would be inclined to accept some changes in the bill. Rated Hie most controversial item in this 70-day session, the measure would rebuild the state tax structure to case local property tax burdens. Its chief provision would change the 3 per cent state income tax rate to a graduated rate of 3 to 6 per cent, meaning a bigger payout for all except (hose in the lowest bracket --with a taxable net income of 51,000 or less a year. James emphasized, however, a belief a any modification must be relatively minor. "This is like a jig-saw puzzle" he said.

"If you pull out one piece, you destroy its validity and its symmetry." He said this view would not rule out Ally. Gen. Thomas B. Finan's proposals to increase the income tax personal exemption from S8QO to $1,000 and to establish a $1.50 personal prop- erty lax for business instead of the $1.25 rate proposed by the Cooper-Hughes Bill. Mandel said be considers it imperative that the bill be passed "If it's necessary to accept these amendments, we'll just have to accept them," be said.

James and Mandel both said chances are favorable for enactment of legislation to set up a stale educational television sys- tem, build a bridge adjacent to the present Chesapeake Bay Bridge, set up an intermediate Court of Appeals to lake some of the workload off the shoulders of the Court of Appeals, regulate revolving credit, revise the general laws on usury, and reshape the congressional districts. Both also expressed serious doubts thai the Legislature will abolish the death penally or re- peal the ami-subversive Ober Law. Mandel said the bill for a slate operated lottery has a belter chance of passage in the House this year than last, when it got 52 of 85 necessary voles. James said it probably couldn't get through the Senate, anyhow. Similarly, Mandel gave a small-arms control bill a fair chance of making in the House, but James said he saw no strong sentiment for it in the Senate.

Both, however, said some legislation probably will be enacted on highway traffic safety. James said Ihe Senate may even include among these measures the bill to require chemical tests for drunken-driving suspects, but Mandel would not go beyond saying "there is some hope" for this measure in the House. HJTS 11-GALWK MARK. Mrs. Willard Champ Donor The Red Cross bloodmobile found 185 volunteers ready to give blood during Monday's stop at St.

John's Lutheran Church. One donor, Henna Willard, became the first woman in this county listed on Red Cross records as completing donation of 11 gallons of blood. Olher persons who passed personal donation milestones Monday were: By GORDON BEARD Associated Press Writer BALTIMORE A The bride kept throwing off her veil and insisted on eating bananas, a siring band played "Abadabba Honeymoon," and the groom didn't even show up for the ceremony. But the elaborate Valentine's Day affair was held anyway, with the wedding guests watching from behind glass panels. When the proxy ceremony was over, the bride Sylvia went back to her cage to await the groom and a delayed honeymoon.

Hercules, like Sylvia a 2-year- old gorilla, is due to arrive at the Baltimore Zoo Thursday after a flight from Holland. Bad weather prevenled his takeoff earlier Ihis week, although some simple simians at the zoo whispered he was attending an extended bachelor's parly. More than a month ago, the Friends of the Zoo Society launched a drive to collect 2.4 million trading stamps to pay lor Hercules. At ceremony time, the drive was still about $1,000 short of the needed $4,380, but an auc tion of wedding gifts tomorrow night is expected to supply the Ruritan Club Schedules Street Lights Campaign LE1TERS13URG The slrcet ight committee reported on plans for a spring canvass, to he Leitersburg Rurilan Club's ast business mecling.
