CHICAGO OB Costs of state
government are going up again.
As a result, most states expect
to take a larger bite from the
taxpayer's pocketbook.
Of 41 state legislatures surveyed
by The Associated Press, 37, either
have approved larger budgets for
the approaching bienmum or are
expected to do so.
Only Arkansas has programmed
reduced spending, and that was
not etirely by design of the 1955
lawmakers. The state's fiscal. code
ties its spending to its income, in
which a decline of four million dol
lars is anticipated for each of the
next two fiscal years.
The Georgia Legislature kept ap
propriations at the same level as
last year.
Oklahoma appropriations are ex
pected to be about the same for
the next biennium.
Mississippi's Legislature, in spe
cial session, is not considering 'ap
propriations. ' ,
To Boost Outlays
All other assemblies checked
have upped or are due to boost
cash, outlays. Most of these have
approved or have tax raising
measures.
This follows a trend of recent
years. The census bureau reported
this week that state spending for

Sometimes "popular demand'? will push the
best-known stocks beyond their real value. These
may be vulnerable to sudden market changes. On
the other hand, certain under-valued securities ig
nored today by the public may be the leaders to
morrow. Markets go up and markets go down but
good values are always available.'

down on several buys because real
estate agents said the homes were
in white neighborhoods where Ne
groes were not wanted.
