Governor urges tax hike to fund Maine schools and programs

Maine Governor John H. Reed told 125 attendees at the Arundel Women’s Republican Club in Biddeford that without a major tax increase the state cannot meet obligations to local communities for public schools needing over 7 million dollars in the next two years. He outlined a supplemental budget under five million dollars and noted reductions from a 19 million dollar departmental request. Reed pressed funding for a statewide television network, university support, teacher pensions, wage costs, and renovation of the Boys Training Center in South Portland, while reacting to the defeat of the Right to Work bill.
