More than 800 Hoosier teachers returned to their homes yesterday prepared to push a legislative program developed at the annual Indiana State Teachers Association leadership conference here.

Wyatt, executive secretary of the ISTA. He outlined a legislative program that also includes: Increased state support for public schools without additional local property taxes. Expanding state supported school programs to include kindergarten and post high school levels. BETTER WORKING conditions to give more time to teach.

The Danville School Board has announced a proposed 1965 budget calling for a $4.52 tax rate per $100 of assessed valuation an increase of $1.54 over the current levy. Superintendent Merrill Vaughn said he expects the final rate to be lower, since the 1964 total valuation of $10,764,000 was used in fixing the tax rate to finance the proposed $746,250 budget. If the 1965 valuation is higher, the rate will decrease. Vaughn said the larger budget reflects proposed increased salaries for te.ich.ing and non-teaching personnel" In the system, and the addition of three new teachers.

Additional appropriations also were requested for new equipment at the new 12-room North Elementary School, which is scheduled to open this fall, he said. A public hearing on the proposed budget will be held at 8 p.m. Aug. 27 in the Danville school administrative office, 151 East Main Street.

Courtney declined to discuss the administrative headaches posed by the attorney general's ruling, other than to say, "We asked whether private schools should be treated differently than the public schools, and the attorney gen-eni! said they should not." In his opinion, Steers noted that its effect could pose a hardship for private businesses which are in competi-t i with school-operated bookstores and dining facilities. He said such inequities should be considered by the next session of the Indiana General Assembly. Caniiel OKs Tux Slash STAR STATE REPORT Carmel, Ind.

FRANK An official opinion issued yesterday by Attorney General Edwin K.

Steers that most sales of books and meals at private and state-supported colleges and universities are exempt from the sales tax handed the schools a big administrative headache. Steers ruled that bookstore sales of merchandise needed for educational purposes and room and board charges for students and faculty are exempt from the 2 per cent sales levy. But the real kicker in Steers' ruling came when he said such bookstores and food sales are exempt only if the university operates such businesses. If bookstore and food sales are operated on campus locations by private firms or through leases negotiated by the schools, the sales will not be tax exempt. This could mean students at Purdue University would be required to pay tax on their textbooks since Purdue operates no bookstore.

But In-d i a a University students could obtain their books without paying the tax since l.U. operates its own bookstore. AND THE RULING by Steers, if adopted by the State Revenue Board, will force school bookstores to decide what supplies are needed for educational purposes and what are not. It also will force the schools to collect the tax from non-students purchasing merchandise in school bookstores and eating in school dining facilities. The ruling by Steers reversed a regulation issued last January oy State Revenue Commissioner James C.

Courtney which called for all sales at both state and private schols to be taxed. MANY PRIVATE schools had objected to thai decision by Courtney who then asked Steers for a ruling.
