Home optimists are inclined to think that the figures for the present ytear may go well over $44,000,000, but others contend that they may not go to $42,000,000. Much will depend upon the manner in which the tax is collected and the Auditor Gen eral's Department is proceeding vig orously to elear the books of back taxes. The twti-mill manufacturing capital tax would add materially and it is not certain yet whether it will not be necessary to take care of the teachers' salary increase. Included in the appropriations asked is $9,000,000 for colleges, which it is predicted will be cut down. The general appropriation bill, which stands over $40,000,000, is due to be trimmed as well. Plans have been made for a con ference between the Governor, the HAKRISBURG TELEGRXPH fiscal officers and the chairmen of the appropriations committees to morrow or next day with a view to getting down to brass tacks on the amount that can be voted. The Governor will also settle the rev enue raising problems this week. The final hearings and inspections will be made by the House Appro priations Cpmmittee this week. Tuesday the Downingtown Industrial School will have a hearing on its appropriation. The new Federal Inheritance Tax law will cost the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania probably a million dol lars a year because of the fact that the taxes of this State are levied on the clear value of estates after de duction of debts, cost of administra tion and federal taxes. When this law was enacted the State authori ties never contemplated such in heritance taxes as those now in force as a result of the War Revenue law and the liscovery that big estates will pay enormous federal taxes and the State lose what it might have gotten has resulted in a series of bills to correct the condition. One of these bills is in the so-called Daw son series, introduced by the chair man of the Ways and Means Com mittee at the request of the Auditor General. The Federal law allows exemptions up to $50,000 estates. The tax is one per cent, up to SIOO,- ,000, bui raises rapidly after that, to eight per cent, for million dollar estates and twenty-two per cent, for those between eight and ten million dollars. The bills will probably be reported out by the Ways and Means Commit tee this week. The Walker series which will stiffen up the taxes against foreign corporations are ex pected to pass this week, while the new inheritance tax code is on the House calendar.
