Handley Foresees No Stale Tax Increase Says State Budget Is Now In Balance INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Governor Handley today painted a bright picture of state finances and said there would be no need to ask the 1959 General Assembly for additional taxes. Obviously smarting under recent Democratic attacks, the governor, at a news conference, said: “Indiana is fiscally solvent for the first time in many* years.” Handley said he "had no apologies” for sponsoring the gross income and gasoline tax increases last year. "In spite of the recent economic readjustment, for the first time in four years the budget of the state of Indiana is balanced and our revenues now exceed expenditures,” he said. Beaman Sees Recovery This was achieved despite the fact that the recession has cost the state an estimated 10 million dollars in tax revenue, according to th governor. Edwin Beaman, director of the State Revenue Department, then told the news conference that part of this loss will be recovered through the payroll witholding system, which he estimated would add 250,000 taxpayers to the list in 1958 alone. Most of these persons have evaded taxes in the past, according to Beaman.

The governor said the cash balance of the general fund increased 5,600,000 at the end of the fiscal fore. He added that it would have been even higher had not $900,000 been advanced for a revolving fund to permit economical purchase of state automobiles and manufacturing materials for state institutions by quantity buying. Handley said that deficit spendng had occurred to a total of $47,400,000 during the last three bienniums. During that same period the surplus was slashed by nearly 50 million dollars from an all-time high of approximately 80 millions, he added. He said he motivated the tax hikes to restore the state's financial equilibrium. Schools Take Bulk The governor said that costs of education now are absorbing nearly all of the gross’ incSme tax revenues and predicted evn high, er expenditures because an additional 30,000 children are entering school each year. Handly admitted that there are now about 20,000 state workers and said he saw no signs of a small payroll. “The payroll expansion will end only when Indiana’s expansion ends/’ he said. * Handley said, however, that the freeze on higher salaries will continue until a committee of Indiana and Purdue University economists reports on the state's financial future. ■ "But I think," he added, “that Indiana’s employes are grossly underpaid. We have attendants working at mental institutions for

only $l5O a month. That is not > enough to support a family.” Handley said that much of thej addition of state workers has re-1 suited from the "largest highway | program in Indiana history which' will involve the letting of $149 mil-! lion of road contracts this year.” I There also have been expansions I of personnel in mental hospitals/ state police, the revenue depart-) ment because of the withholding law and in the Indiana Employment Security Division in view of ■ the recession, according to Han- j dley. U. S. Supreme Court Chided By Justices Chief Justices Os Nine States Report | LOS ANGELES (UPD — Chief justices of nine states chided the United States Supreme Court to-, day for engaging in “policy-mak-' irig” decisions whidh have rapidly extended federal power in the past 25 years. ; The criticism of the high ourt was contained in a 31-page report to the 10th annual conference of chief justices meeting in i Psadena. "It has long been an American boast that we have a government of laws and not of men,” the justices said. “We believe that any Study of recent decisions of the Supreme Court will raise at least considerable doubt as to the validity of that boast." "We find that in constitutional cases unanimous decisions are comparative rarities, and the multiple opinions., are common occurrences. We find next that divisions in result on a 5 to 4 basis are quite ferquent.” The report, prepared by a special committee on federal-state relationships, said it was strange that the Supreme Court had been able to gain its “immense and dominant power” under the Constitution which provides for a system of checks and balances. "We are concerned specifically with the effect of judicial decisions upon the relations between the federal and state governments.” the committee said. “Here we think that the overall tendency of decisions of the Supreme Court over the past 25 years or more has been to press the extension of federal power and to press it rapidly.” Pointing.out their belief that the basis of democracy lies in distribution of power among the various branches of government, the chief justices said at times the Supreme Court has shown “an impatience with the slow workings of our fed-1 era! system.” “We believe that . . the Supreme Court too often has tended to adopt the role of policy-maker without proper judical restraint.” MICHIGAN (Continued trom pave one) the community of Gainesville.
