',Moo,ini`-House
IiARRISBURG, - Sept: .17—(P)—A $138,250,00Q compromise tax
program Startdd to move in the house tonight without any Surface
indication that the Senate will support it.
""Eight - bills, backed by the' House Republican leadership, were

- within a7l hour. They include
percent levy on real estate trans
fers.
Tax Revisions Planned'
The House package, in addi : -
,; tion to the real' estate transfers
tax, proposes' increasing from 10
percent to 20 percent the inheri
tance tax on estates left to Per
sons other than direct heirs, col
lecting 30 months of corporate net
incomes in the next ,24 months,
and closing a number of loopholes
in imposts on insurance, inheri
tance, and gross receipts on public
utilities.
Sen. John H. Dent, Democratic
floor • leader, said that "circum
stances" might make it necessary
to support the income levy to
avoid a breakdown in financial
aid to education and state-aided
•
institutions.
Salary Increase Asked
A bill increasing salaries of
future members of the ,General
Assembly,from $3,000 to $5,000 a
s es s ion was introduced in the

College Fruit
Is 'Forbidden'
The College orchards are laden
with "forbidden fruit" Pomology
Professor David• 'White of th e
Horticulture departrfient &gently
warned yesterday. -
With great Concern . fOr the
health of persons who eat fruit
fr o m the • orchards, pomologist
White cautioned that the fruit is
not sprayed with the •ordinary
insecticide'S but rather with a
deadly spray of hormones.
These hormone sprays, White
said; are being used- as a test to
find suitable sprays for future
use and at present the concern is
'not • over" the chemical compo
sition which .in the - case of the
hormone spray is extremely dead
ly.
• Two3oo-ppund hogs die d:
and three more were seriousl y
ill yesterday - on the! College
farm, V e t e r i n a ry Instructor
. John Shook announced. The
cause has not beeri determined /
yet but Shook believes' the
ready-for-market hogs were fed
apples from the spray hormone
experiment.
Unlike the Bibilical Garden of
Eden, the trees sprayed iv it h
these dangerous hormones are not
specifically tagged since the test
ing is done by lots, White said.
