Kuchel Warns Against Overworking City Sales Tax to Raise Revenue SACRAMENTO (CNS) — A warning that trouble will ensue if the state and the cities of the state continue to add sales tax laws in increasingly higher amounts, has been expressed by State Controller Thomas H. Kuchel. Addressing the taxation section of the State Chamber of Commerce in San Francisco, Kuchel declared that "the parable of the goose whose peculiar and unique propensities including laying eggs of gold" is relevant to the situation. He declared that if the multitude of local sales tax laws are continued "it will be an increasingly attractive invitation to many, many people to bring out their axes on some future has the backing of the California Retailers Association, members of which are concerned over added costs of operation through complicated bookkeeping, and payment of the tax to many different governmental agencies. In commenting on the California tax situation, Kuchel said: "I do not believe that we can constantly expand state subventions, on the one hand, nor on the other hand, constantly overlap taxing statutes on retail sales nor on anything else for that matter, without running into trouble. "Somewhere along the line is a breaking point and we need to avoid it. "In co-operative studies, I would hope that light could be Addressing the taxation section of the State Chamber of Commerce in San Francisco, Kuchel declared that "the parable of the goose whose peculiar and unique propensities including laying eggs of gold" is relevant to the situation. He declared that if the multitude of local sales tax laws are continued "it will be an increasingly attractive invitation to many, many people to bring out their axes on some future November election day." A plan is being worked on at the present time to provide legislation which would eliminate city sales taxes, increase the state sales tax by one cent, and divide up the increased revenue between cities and counties. Such a plan could well be the solution of the declared necessity of raising more revenue to meet the costs of Proposition No. 2, which increases allotments to schools by between $70 and $130 million annually, provided a formula could be worked out so that cities and counties would get only part of the increase and the schools another part. Kuchel, along with other state officials, including the governor, has declared that increased revenues will be necessary to finance the school grab, and none of these officials have receded from their position despite the contention of the California Teacher Association lobby that no new taxes are necessary to finance the increased allotments. The increased sales tax plan Madonna Festival Opens in Bowers Memorial Museum in Santa Ana Sunday, Dec. 7 has been chosen as the opening date of the third annual Madonna Festival presented each holiday season by the Bowers Museum. The purpose behind this presentation is to emphasize the universal quality of the Madonna. In furtherance of this ideal effort is made to include the interpretations of the peoples of all nationalities as well as all creeds. In the contemporary class, artists of 18 nationalities have entered their work, while distinguished collectors have loaned antique figures, many of which date back as far as the 17th century. The Cheche figures of this period on display, Contributor Gets Letter from Korea re among the finest. Roger Noble Burham of Los Angeles, whose herole figure of the "Smiling Christ" is to be placed on the Hollywood hills where it is said it may be seen for over 100 miles, has sent not only the original model, but figures of Joseph Mary and the babe Jesus. Joseph Nicholosi of Hollywood, internationally - known sculptor, has sent a bronze figure of the Mother and Child. Halle Blakeley, renowned creator of porcelain figures created, especially for the Festival, an exquisitely beautiful modern Madonna and Child, surrounded by cherubs. Madonnas encased in hand-tooled leather shrines are the Contributor Gets Letter from Korea Beneficiaries One Anahelmer who contributed $10 to the George Morar Square club drive for clothing, food and toys for Korean war orphans was rewarded last week with a letter from Rodger D. Slems, secretary of the club, whose home is in Anaheim. Slems is now serving with the Fifth Air Force in Korea. The drive was conducted locally through First Baptist church of Anaheim, on whose lawn a corral for contributions was erected. The letter read: Dear Sir: At the regular meeting of the George Morar Square club on Nov. 17, an acknowledgement of your contribution to the orphanage was made. We of the club wish to express our appreciation of this contribution. I believe my mother told you how the money was sent over here in form of a money order for $10. This was added to a sum of money which was used to rehabilitate a structure for winter use which is now being used by the orphanage. We felt this was of more immediate need than the purchase of toys as you requested. One of these days, some of these very children may be the leaders of Korea. We feel that they will not soon forget the moral and physical comfort that they have received during their hours of tribulation. We firmly believe that this is helping to establish a better relationship between our respective nations.
