In the final analysis, it will all come back to the age-old battle between the State and the counties over taxes. There are many representatives, and they are by no means all from wet counties, who feel that if the State continues to monopolize so many categories of tax revenues the time ris coming when the counties Vvtll find their tax cupboards as bare as the one made famous by Old Mother Hubbard. At any rate, it is going to be very interesting to watoh the maneuvers of ABC county representatives and senators. They’re in a spot and they know it.
