SPORTS CLASSIFIED SECTION FINANCIAL Welcome Si? SBS Governor And Educators Reported Plants To District In Accord On Income Tax Surplus Chairman Olds Cites How Diversifying Industry Would Offer Broader Market L. BY MARGUERITE JOHNSTON Near Home ror Corporation Output Washington Special correspondent Ut ACUIXTOTAXT WASHINGTON 25 Per Cent Hike In Teachers' Pay Up To Electors $6,650,000 From Tax For Education Fund Is Basis Of Accord Electrification has swept across the farmlands of the South in the last 10 years at a greater rate than in any other section of the country. Alabama's number of electrified farms leaped 447.4 per cent between 1934 and 1944. But the Southern states still rank lowest on the nation's list in the percentage of farms served with I electricity, and Alabama has statistically lost position in the march of 48 states toward farm modernization. The reason that the sweeping increases of electrification have been unable to boost the South's or Alabama's position in the scale is because they had the farthest to come.

New England had and has held its head start. Heaviest concentration of electrified farms is found in New England and California. The two Dakotas rank lowest. Southern states nudge the Dakotas for bottom place, with Mississippi 46th on the list, which shows the Dakotas at 47th and 48th. Alabama in the middle ranges of the Southern group and therefore an average example for the region-had in 1934 only 4 per cent of its farms wired for electricity.

At that time, the national average was 10.9 per cent. Of the state's 273,455 farms, 11,053 were receiving electric service. AT THAT TIME, ALABAMA RANKED 33RD among the 48 states. Today 26.1 per cent of Alabamas farms are receiving rural electricity 60,500 of the states 231.746 farms listed by the census of 1940 The addition of 49,447 Alabama farms to electrical service in the 10-year period marked a 447.4 per cent increase. Alabama ranks 15th in the nation for percentage of increase.

But the nation, meanwhile, has continued its forward movement. 1 Today, compared to Alabamas 26.1 per cent, the nation has 42.2 per BY ROBERT W. KINCEY News Staff Writer NEW YORK The United States Steel Corporation and its affiliate, Tennessee Coal, Iron Railroad Company, welcome diversification of industry in the Birmingham district. Not only that, but Irving S. Olds, the corporation's board chairman, told me the corporation would, within certain limitations of propriety, actively assist in effectuation of" such a program.

And this means, Mr. Olds said, U. S. Steel, while already producing raw materials for most essential needs in Birmingham, will go even further and make available at Birmingham any specialized raw steel for which the district and its territory can create a reasonable demand. Mr.

Olds was plainly irked to an extent when I told him, quite frankly, that there was a feeling in some quarters in the district that the corporation had not gone along in bringing new industries into the district and could not be counted i upon to do so. That statement is quite ridicu- lous on the face of it, he explained, I when it is considered that T. C. no less than the corporation's other affiliates, can only expect to operate at a reasonable approach to capacity when the demand for its own products is consistent and relatively high in the consumer goods field.

forces and school leaders reportedly have reached an accord by which Gov. Sparks' constitutional amendment giving the general fund the net proceeds from the income tax will be supported by educators and schools in turn will be assured of the $6,650,000 annual appropriation increase their leaders have insisted on all along. The accord which, among other things, would provide money enough to assure the average school teacher a 25 per cent pay hike instead of the 18 per cent increase proposed recently by administration spokesmen provided voters okeh the Sparks income tax proposal was reached a few days ago during a conference in Gov. Sparks office. The governor and several of his lieutenants, State Superintendent of Education E.

B. Norton and other educators attended the conference. School representatives at the par-ley are said to have given every indication that terms of the accord would be approved by other school leaders and by the rank and file of Alabama educational forces. AS A RESULT OF THE REPORTED ACCORD, a bitter end fight during the 1945 legislative session between the Sparks administration and school forces over the income tax plum will be averted. Under terms of the accord school forces will discontinue efforts to submit a constitutional amendment giving virtually all the income tax net proceeds to education, and will join hands with the administration not only in passing the governors income tax proposal in the House and Senate but also in obtaining support for the amendment at the polls.

By joining forces with the administration educators also are expected to support the governors plan to create a special building commission to control expenditure of more than $20,000,000 for new build-(P)Tbe 'ngs an( improvements at schools and eleemosynary institutions.

Mr Olds said, is that the corporation cannot, by the very nature of the thing, build steel mills, manufacture steel and then pile it up somewhere hoping that some day some one will come along and buy it.

"But we do realize, all of us, that this Southern territory, with Birmingham as the focal point, has an exceedingly fine opportunity to engage in a great many activities not now a part of its economy. U. S. Steel not only wants to fill the resultant demand for raw materials from Birmingham, but is anxious to help create that demand.

On the basis of 1944 tax collections, this would give schools an increase of about $911,000 annually during the next two fiscal years. THE SALES TAX AND OTHER TAXES earmarked for education are now pouring about 52,000,000 annually into the Alabama special educational trust fund surplus account. The governor is willing to divert this revenue flow to schools for operating purposes beginning with the Oct. 1, 1945, fiscal year. In addition, the administration proposes to appropriate out of the general fund in event the Sparks income tax amendment is ratified $1,750,000 annually for schools.

All these proposals would give the schools an increase during the next two fiscal years of $4,661,000 annually. Besides this adidtional money, the administration proposes to release to schools for operating purposes an amount which may run as high as $2,800,000 which is now frozen in the Alabama educational trust fund surplus account for debt service. Counting this amount and the $4, 661.000 promised from other sources, schools thus would be assured of receiving even more than the 650.000 increase they have been demanding. The average teacher, therefore, could count on a 25 per cent pay boost. That is, of course, assuming (hat the governor's Income tax plan is ratified.
