Derrick, professor of economics at the University, was a member of the "Committee of Nine" on taxation and government reform which reported to the state legislature last Wednesday. A program for raising $4,400,000 in new revenue, with the diver sion of $1,800,000 from the state highway department as the princi pal item, was outlined in a 43-page pamphlet. The committee has been working for some time in an at tempt to solve the state's financial problems. The report was drafted into pamphlet by Dr. Derrick and two other members of the committee, H. M. Pace, power company executive of Charleston; and Dr. George H. Aull of Clemson col lege. The other six members were: Sienators S. M. Ward, Fred F. Wil iams, and George K. Laney, all named by President Pro Tem. Tay lor L. Stukes of the senate, and Representatives J. D. Poag, Win chester Smith, and Luther Byars, named by Speaker Sol Blatt of the House. Most trouble came over the di version of the highway funds. The committee explains its final action thus-"The committee has con sidered the possibilty and the advisibility of redistributing some of the state's revenues now ear marked for special purposes. Spe cifically, the committee considered the pxpediency of retaining for the general fund of the state a portion of the gasoline tax and automobile license revenue now used exclusive ly for state highway purposes."
