Tax Deal Shaping Up in State
Gov Shapp plans a joint session once a plan is ready as Budget Secretary McIntosh warns the treasury could be broke by August with only 160 million at start. Legislature acts to fund July, discusses Sunday liquor sales, and GOP tax relief aims to cut corporate net income and capital stock taxes to bridge a 949 million hole in the 1971 72 budget.
