in an attempt to amend the bill to remove its exemption of "building and loan and savings and loan associations. They are exempt, along with, banks, from the proposed tax. Carrigan argued that exempting banks while taxing savings and loan and building and loan associations under the bill would tend to equalize tax loads between the two categories of competing businesses. He said the amendment would somewhat offset inequality of taxation of the two kinds of financial institutions at the county level. Carrigan said that under the property tax, shares of stock are taxed but deposits which represent shares in building and loan or savings and loan associations are 'not.

A manufacturer with gross business could have a net profit as high as 12 per cent and still would pay the gross sales rather than the corporate tax under the alternate arrangement, Gainer said. Senate Finance Chairman, Hans McCourt, D-Webster, conceded there would be few, if any, instances where a manufacturer's tax bill would be higher under the corporate net income measure, requiring him to pay that tax instead of gross sales.

(AP) -Sheriff Herbert Brown said Saturday he will ask more than 1,400 school children to help solve the baffling execution of two 14- year-old boys. Brown said the killings are shaping up "as thrill slayings of some sort." The victims, Ronald Johnson and Wayne Mullendore were found Thursday night in an isolated pavilion in Levings Park on the southwestern fringe of Rockford's city limits. Each had been shot in the head and the stomach.

Brown said Saturday he will appeal to the student body of Wilson Junior High School at a special assembly Monday. He said he hoped that some person' will give information to school Principal Donald Connor that would provide possible clues to the slayings. The boys, who were cousins, were both seventh-grade pupils. Brown said both boys were shot at fairly close range, approximately three or four feet, with a revolver. No weapon has been found.

"I don't think they expected to be shot," Brown said. "They didn't think it would go that far. It was a methodical and deliberate act. It may have been the work of a juvenile.
