He said that if the legislature did decide to keep the liquor revenues the money would go into the general fund. Cities and counties might be partially compensated for the loss by more money from gas tax, motor vehicle registration and weight mile funds, he said. Yturri said the latter slate funds could be spent for highway purposes only and could not be used to help the weakened general fund. At present cities share 10 per cent, counties 19 per cent and the state 71 per cent in various motor vehicle funds. Dr. Richard Zettcll, a Cali fornia Institute of Transporta tion and Traffic Engineering of ficial, told the league similar funds in that state go IS per cent to cities, 23 per cent to counties and 61 per cent to the state. Keynote speaker was Mayor Arthur Naftalin of Minneapolis. He said local government should be freed from restrictions which have placed them in a financial "straitjackct." He suggested legislative consolidation of local government units, sharing of state income with cities and subsidization for either public or private mass transportation sys tems.

Industry officials generally declined to discuss the situa tion, other than to confirm re ceipt of the subpoenas. Approximately 75 per cent of all steel products have been af fected by these piecemeal price increases and only a few weeks ago President Kennedy told a news conference he was watch ing "with concern" the recent round of increases put into ef fect by major producers.

Within two days the bulk of the nation's other major steel producers fell into line and raised their tonnage price a similar amount. In a spectacular confrontation between the Kennedy adminis tration and "big steel" the steel industry rescinded the price in crease. The administration said at the time the price hikes were not in the country's best interests. Since then the steel industry held the line until last April and additional price hikes were made during the summer and fall. The spring price increases, which were selective, actually elicited some praise from the administration for its restraint.
