ones are imposed.
“Hi,” who wili return to his

Duff that “a large increase in
taxes” is necessary if the public
demands for increased services are
to be met.
Cites Sales Tax Opinion
Mr. Andrews says that it is his
personal opinion that sales taxes
should be resorted to only “if the
necessary needs of the common-
wealth” cannot be met any other
way and if new corporation taxes

SUGGESTED FOR TAX
Andrews Says All Racing Fans
Leaving Money Elsewhere
Legalization of horse racing and
licensing of pari-mutuel betting
were suggested the other day by
Rep. Hiram G. Andrews of Johns-
town as ‘one source of revenue
that has not been touched in
Pennsylvania.
Andrews, who was reelected the
Democratic party's leader in the
state house, said the suggestion
was his own and in “no sense a
party position.”
He made the comment in con-
nection with a statement by Gov.-
Elect James H. Duff that the 1947
Legislature foced the problem of
providing “a large increase in
taxes” if the things the public
seems to want are to be done.
“We tolerate the races but let |
the people get out of the state |
to bet,” declared Andrews, who |
declined to estimate how much
revenue pari-mutuel betting might |
produce. “The money now goes to |
Maryland, to New Jersey and to |
New York”
“But if we license pari-mutuel
we should close down on out-of-
state bookies who are doing a
big business right under the eyes |}
of the law,” Andrews added af-
ter asserting “I understand from
the public prints that such a bill
will be introduced under strong
Republican auspices.”
Andrews at the same time urg-
ed a ‘scientific analysis” of the
present commonwealth taxes to
determine who pays them before
any new taxes are adopted.
