trends.
Democrats, who scored some substantial gains west of the Mississippi river in the congressional elections, point out that the West is gaming population more rapidly than the East. This means they ought to have a good chance of picking up still more seats after the census of I960 results in a re-distribution of House districts.
Republicans, on the other hand, point out that Florida and Texas are no longer Democratic strongholds and that they. too. will have their delegations
to Congress enlarged.
The GOP also notes happily that such states in the Deep South as Alabama. Mississippi and North
Carolina, where Democrats still reign supreme, are almost sure to
lose a few seats because of their population lags.

APPEALS STUDIED
CHICAGO (UP)—The United Steelworkers Executive Board today took under advisement appeals by five “rebel” members w r ho claimed they were denied places on the ballot for international offices. The five are backers of Don C. Rarick, 37, a millhand from McKeesport, Pa., w’ho is seeking to replace David J. McDonald as president of the union. The board, which includes McDonald, Vice President How r ard R. Hague and Secretary-Trea-surer I. W. Abel, heard testimony from the “rebels” and then adjourned after midnight without a decision.
implement the withholding system, applicable only to employers of 10 persons or more. Handley said if the Legislature fails to be realistic about the prospects of deficit spending, “it would propel us into the biggest fiscal crisis that has confronted the state in more than a cen-
tury.”
The new governor urged the lawmakers to forego “stop-gap solutions” to the fiscal problem and "keep the long-range picture in focus.” He repeated an eaiiiei statement that the proposed budget for 1957-1959 is “utterly fantastic.” It called for expenditures of 790 million dollars over a tw’o-year period. Handley also: 1. Urged the Legislature to provide matching funds to implement the federal highway pro-
gram.
2 Recommended continuation of the present precentage distribution of state highway tax rev-
enues/
3. Patted the state on the back for providing new school classrooms “twice as fast as the advocates of federalized education say we should.” 4. Said if the staff contributes a bigger share toward teachar salaries “it should come from a new’ tax arrangement an edu-
cation tax.”
5. Proposed no state money ■be loaned for building school
gymnasiums.
6. Recommended ment of a school of medicine at Purdue. 7. Recommended
tion of a net income tax on busi-
nesses.
8. Endorsed retiring Governor Ciaig’s proposal of establishment of an intermediate reform school for first offenders. 9. Suggested periodic examination of all automobiles and driv-
ers.
But tax and fiscal problems were uppermost in Handley’s mind as he read a 22-page message to the legislators. “The proposed budget,” he reminded them, “now r totals $790,084,813. Thus, it calls for at least 108 million dollars more than the estimated receipts. "If adopted as it is in its original form, it w’ould completely use up the remaining balance in the State Treasury w'hich experts say should not drop below 40 millions and also would call for the levying of 70 miHion dollars of new taxes.” He put it bluntly:
I “Tt is obvious that the propoa* j ed budget must be cut drasticallv. and government expenditures curtailed or else taxes must oe | raised accordingly. Such increasi ed taxes would affect every person living in Indiana.”

Gov. Shivers Names Eisenhower Democrat
AUSTIN, Texas (UP) Gov. Allan Shivers, as his last official act before leaving office, today appointed William A. Blakley, ,i Dallas attorney and an "Enscniower Democrat” to succeed Gov. Elect Price Daniel in the U. S. Senate. The appointment of an Eisenaower partisan posed in immediate threat to the slim Democratic •ontrol of the upper house. However, there was no immediate indication whether Blakley .vill challenge the Democratic lold on the Senate by voting with .he Republicans. This would remit in a 48-48 tie, anti throw conrol to the GOP when Vice President Richard Nixon would cast )is tie-breaking vote.
