MRS. ROBINSON PASSES; LAST RITES MONDAY The difference was more than offset by an increase of $126,524.65 in the highway fund receipts for the month. The drop in general fund collec tions was caused by decreases in in heritance and beverage taxes. Other principal items in the general fund classification — privilege, franchise, income and sales taxes— showed in creases.
