Classroom Censorship Said Rising SAN FRANCISCO. July Voluntary censorship by teachers In the public schools is "growing by leaps and bounds" and ia cur tailing academic freedom to the danger point,--an-' investigating educator asserted today.

When these protests come to teachers. Dr. Essex said, their inclination is to yield a little for. the sake of keeping; peace.

July 5-WVA National Association of Manufac turers (NAM) spokesman got a cool reception from senators to day when he proposed to balance the federal budget with a "con sumption tax" of as much as $18,-? 000.000,000. The reaction Indicated the nlan will get nowhere. Both republi cans and democrats on the senate finance committee spoke up against it. The idea was offered by Charles R. Sligh, Jr., a Holland, Mich., fur niture manufacturer . who heads the NAM'S taxation committee. Sligh proposed an excise tax at the manufacturers' li il he call ed it a "broad consumption tax on everything manufactured ex cept food and food products." Un der questioning, he- said excises sholud yield as much as the gov ernment now gets from individu al income taxes, or about $22, 00 ",000,000 a year. Since he would leave the present liquor and to bacco excises alone (these -yield about $4,000" 000) this would mean $18,000,000,000 - from the manufacturers excise. . ' - - The new tax would replace the many present excises, except on liquor and tobacco. Sligh suggest ed there be no increases in corpor ation taxes and only moderate ones on personal income.
