The commission will be asked to straighten out a state law, held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, which permits shuttns and civilian absentees to cast their votes before election day.

Harry J. Hall (R-Scituate), and Sen. John G. McWeeney (D-Providence). Special Summer Session The recommendations, of the commission will be acted upon by the General Assembly in a special session during the Summer.

It is also expected that the special session of the General Assembly will be asked to work out a new tax program which will provide full state aid to cities and towns for education and also increased salaries for state employees. Gov. Roberts, in presenting his $100 million budget to the legislators last month, reiterated his "hold the tax" policy. For the fourth consecutive year, he planned to dip into the state's general surplus instead. imposing new taxes.

The picture changed this week, however. A current study of the state government's labor problems is now under way, and if, as anticipated, the study proposes higher pay for state employees it 1 will be necessary to raise an additional several million dollars to meet the increases. Another problem to come before the special session would be increased cost of state aid to The governor in his budget rec while the January total was 20,061. The D.E.S. attributes this decline to a tapering off of new employment and the fewer number of working days in February.

The two latter proposals were Indorsed by the governor, but not included in the budget. Should the general assembly grant the request of the State Board of Education and include these last two aids, it would mean that an additional $1,350,000 in revenue would have be raised. gales Tax Hike Possible That the state will be faced with the possibility of raising approximately $10 million in additional revenue seems likely at this time. Leaders of both parties feel that the only way to raise that amount is to increase taxes.

There has been no indication as to how the revenue would be raised, but the possibility of increasing the state sales tax from 2 to 3 percent has been discussed, plus Increased taxes on cigarettes and gasoline.
