McKay's Ideas Endorsed Legislative leaders were gen- erally agreed today that Gover nor Douglas McKay and tx-oov. John H. Hall had the right solu tlon for the state's financial puzzle. mat is to use corporation in come taxes to pay state expenses, instead oi to reduce property taxes. Former Governor Earl Snell recommended the same thing two years ago but the Legislature tnen told mm it couion t re done. Now, nobody sees anything wrong with It. Members of the legislative fi nancial committees said today they think the whole budget problem can be solved without un due hardship on any state depart ment. And this means, too, the building program for state in stitutions and higher education. There also is a good chance that personal income tax funds will be used for state expenses. These also are now used only for property tax reduction. Icy Storms Again Hit Western States Areas (Continued from Page One) patrol reported early today.

Kbernarier iD-rai, coming up wltn a lax pian, saiu he believes Increases should be almed at corporations and per sons whose incomes are $16,000 a year or more. Doughton withheld comment on that suggestion but said some tax boost "Is probable." Some.
