Solons Propose Two Tax Paths In Budget Battle

Raleigh February 20 Solons debate two per cent general sales tax or a selected commodity tax to raise about six million of the total twenty five million dollar budget with an eight month school term. The sub committee raises franchise and income levies to nineteen million and may remove the ad valorem tax on property. The plan assumes eight month school bill passes and urges highway funds be limited to debt service. If revenues lag the Governor may cut pay or call a special session. The group includes Senator Rankin and Representatives Doughton and others.
