Mrs. Kenneth Gcnsmer and Funeral services and burial wilf Higher Speed Limits Asked on Badger Roads MADISON, Wis, UWA higher speed limit on four-lane highways and a referendum on a withholding method for collecting state taxes were called for in measures introduced In the Legislature Tuesday. The proposals, sure to itir opposition, were part of a continuing flood of bills which has deluged the week-old 1961 Legislature. A less controversial measure introduced Tuesday would give local police power over ice-bound inland lakes an extension of authority granted locally during the summer season. The authors, Sens.

Chester Dempsey, R-Hartland, and Reuben LaFave, R-Oconto, said the bill was an emergency measure in view of the lives lost in winter lake accidents. The new speed plan would set the fourlane highway maximum at 75 miles an hour during the day and 65 at night 10 more miles an hour than now allowed on state roads. The bill was authored by Assemblyman Raymond Heinzen, R-Marshfield. Kendziorski's proposal would ask voters in the April 4 election if they favor collection of state income taxes through withholding "so as to eliminate tax evasion and tax delinquencies." Democratic Gov, Gaylord Nelson twice in the 1959 session proposed a withholding system for state income taxes. In each case it was passed by the Democratic-controlled Assembly and killed in the GOP-controlled Senate.

Two Republican senators last week introduced a resolution calling for a public referendum on a sales tax in Wisconsin.
