BUDGET MAKERS FORESEE HIGHER TAX ASCERTAIN Extra $1,000,000 Allotments Predicted to Avoid Special Session. At least $1,000,000 In specific appropriations must be added to the present budget bill as drawn by the administration budget committee, or a special session of the Legislature is inevitable. " This was the statement of a member of the budget advisory committee today in discussing requests for additional appropriations by various departments, which now total approximately $1,400,000. Should this additional million be granted, as seems likely, the budget measure would be brought up to more than $47,000,000, and the cut of $1,000,000 under the 1923 figure would be wiped out. Higher Rate Seen Although the budget makers hopeful of keeping the figure in the budget bill intact at the request of the Governor, two committee members said cut In appropriations asked for the reformatory, the Normal School at Terre Haute and the Easthaven asylum at Richmond at this time would prove false economy in the long run. Although administration leaders also were hopeful and drew the budget with the idea of keeping the tax rate at the present 28-cent figure, commissioners now see that even under the present approprlations. which run almost $67,000,000 for all expenditures. It will be necessary to boost the rate to 30 cents and maybe to 33 cents. No Normal Branch Budget framers and Governor Jackson thus far are standing firm on decision not to create an additional branch of the State Normal School until the next Genera! Assembly. Because the administration is figuring on using the inheritance tax, heretofore given to the State highway commission, in applying on the State debt of $3,400,000 with the intention of wiping it out in three years. It is understood the Cann bill in the Senate Increasing the gaso line tax 1 cent and thus raising an additional $1,000,000, is an administration measure and has the approval of the Governor. Notwithstanding this, Senator Nejdl, Gary, Republican, floor leader in the Senate, is opposing the measure and thus far it has gained little headway. COMMITTEE APPOINTED The Rev. G. H. Gebhardt, president Marion County Council of Re--11 gibus Education, today named a committee to plan for the vacation Bible school institute here in May.
