TAXABLE ITEMS have a fighting majority in the LegFRIDAY, MAY 17, 19490. ——— — ‘INO NEW TAXES 1S PLEDGE OF LEGISLATORS By RALPH H. TAYLOR The second. half of the State Legislature’s special session, which convenes on May 138, promises to be a meeting of vital significance to all working, producing California! For the forthcdming session, judging from the recent declarations of leaders in both houses, is expected to bring a vigorous re-affirmation and amplification of the ‘back to economy and sanity’”’ principles laid down at the Legislature’s historymaking meet in February. There is every indication that the members of the bi-partisan economy bloc, who clamped down on extravagance, chiseling and corruption in the SRA, and shelved Governor Olson’s demands for 50 million dollars in new taxes earlier this year, have sounded out home sentiment during the legislature recess—and will return to Sacramento even more firmly determined to stay by their ultimatum of ‘‘no new taxes!” But pressure groups, on the other hand, will undoubtedly make a lastditch, desperate stand to re-capture control of public purse strings and the SR'A administrative set-up. Such groups as the Workers’ Alliance (which is now prohibited from collecting tribute, in the form of dues, from relief recipients); the SCMWA, which was largely supported by dues from SRA administrative workers; Labor’s Non-Partisan League and the various communist “front’’ organizations, are planning to “put on the pressure’ with every means at their command. Mail and telegraph barrages, noisy demonstrations, marches on the Capitol and other weapons will be brought into play in an effort to stampede legislators into voting bigger appropriations and new taxes. California taxpayers, now that they is lature, determined to halt racketeering and put a ceiling on taxes, should make certain that they hold that majority—and that the legislators get warm support from their constituents, as well as the brickbats hurled at them by self-seeking @ You may be your town’s first ranking wit or classed among the best, but these will avail you nothfunemployment minorities. Senator Edward H. Tickle of Carmel, chairman of the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee, and Assemblyman Rodney L. Turner of Kern county, chairman of a similar assembly committee, have both made unqualified pledges that they will oppose any and all new tax proposals at the approaching session. And both do committees are expected to bring in definite recommendations against new taxation. “We need to leave a few dollars in the cash register,’’ said Senator Tickle, ‘‘so that business and industry can go ahead, with confidence, and put men back to work. If *° Legislature serves notice that it wiil not permit continued increases in taxation, it will tremendously hearten private enterprise throughout the State, and will do more to solve the problem ‘than we could accomplish through all the government bureaus in California.” And from Assemblyman Turner came the statement: ‘‘We feel that it is time to encourage expansion of industry and private employment of capital, instead of encouraging expansion of government and therevy placing new burdens on our~taxpayers. We are convinced that no difficulty will be found in marketing warrants, so long as our state government is run efficiently and economically, and the Legislature continues to say ‘No’ to new taxes.” After a decade of trying to ‘‘spend ourselves rich,’ those statements— coming from the chairmen of the Legislature’s two committees directly charged with the responsibility of recommending for or against new taxes—are definite encouragement to tax weary farmers, business men, home owners, and citizens generally. There will be many battles at Sacramento over specific acts and methods to be used in bringing government to a point where it can (and must) live within its income, but if the lawmakers resolutely stay by their edict of ‘“‘no new taxes,’’ they will have fought a good fight.
