Senate Republicans are pressing for revival of the state sales tax at a 2% rate and .cuts of $131,' 000,000 in the Governor's budget requests. The program, rejected by the Governor, broke up the second round of tax talks on Aug. 22.
The Governor campaigned in 1954 against a sales tax and said only recently he could conoeive of no situation where he would approve such a levy.
The renewal of the talks to¬ morrow morning does not mean the start of "around-the-clock conferences which the Governor has advocated.
