AUSTIN—Shape of Gov. John
Connally's major legislative goals
is beginning to emerge.
lie gives high priority to his
proposal for a constitutional con-
vention to rewrite the state's
basic laws.
Modernization of local govern-
ments is essential to state pro-
gress and effective management
of local affairs. "Functional gov-
ernment by federal guidelines" is
the likely alternative to a "re-
naissance of local responsibility,
Connally warned.
*. Governor outlined a tough, sev-
"^en-point traffic safety program
Including driver education for all
youngsters, severe penalties for
j/violations of driving laws and a
| minimum licensing age of 16.
4 41 "Without question," he acknow-
ledged, "the 60th Legislature is
looking at a raise in our state
taxes, but it is impossible to tell
exactly how large or how small."
He also ticked off these subjects

from his lists of legislative "es-
sentials":
Revision of the penal code and
code of criminal procedure; ad
ditional sources of revenue for
growing cities; substantial salary
raises for state employees; con-
tinuation of progress in educa-
tion, tourist and industrial de-
velopment, community services
or the mentally ill and mentally
retarded and park system deve-
lopment and improvement.
In discussing streamlining of
local government with county of-
ficials ,lhc governor declared:
"We cannot progress on a pre-
conceived notion that moderniza-
tion is politically impossible."
SCHOOL STRETCHOUT URG-
ED—Texas children ought to
start to school younger and stay
in school longer. So concludes the
State Board of Education in its
16-point legislative program.
Board proposes schooling for
five-year-olds, state . supported
summer school for all grades, a
study of teasibility of a 10-months
school year and seven-hour day,
and higher salaries for teachers.
COURTS SPEAK-Texas Court
of Criminal Appeals has ordered
a new trial for Jack Ruby, who
faced a death Sentence for the
murder of Lee Harvey Oswald,
the man the Warren Commission
said assassinated President John
F. Kennedy on November 22,
1963.
Court said Ruby must be else-
where than Dallas, scene of the '
crime, and concluded that testi-
mony of a police officer concern- j
ing statements indicating preme-
ditation were improperly ad- |
mitted at Kuliy's first trial.
Supreme Court handed down a
record 137 orders. Among its de- ,
cisions were: !
—November 30 date was set
for arguments on Humble Oil
and Refining Company's suit to
recover $73,302 in franchise taxes :
paid under protest. j
—State Board of Insurance rule I
requiring insurance companies to
charge at least six per cent in-1
terest on installment premium 1
payments was thrown out.
—Transfer of two small sections
of land from Frenship Rural lliu.li
School District to Shallowater In- !
dependent School District of Lub-
bock County was upheld.
—Court will review dispute of
Rio Grande Valley residents over
possession of hair of a winning
$34,000 Mexican national lottery
ticket.
AG OPINIONS — Atty. Gen.
Waggoner Carr has held that a
county may provide ambulance
service for its citizens under the
authority given counties to spend
public money on public health
services.
In other opinion, Carr said that j
the Department of Mental Health
and Mental Retardation may- join
forces contractually with the Te*-
as Education Agency, to initiate
and supervise "halfway houses"
to help restore mental retardates
to society.
Cajrr also held that, children
with only a language skill defi-
ciency do not legaly qnalify as
"exceptional children," so no spe-
cial classrooms may be set up for
them.
EPIDEMIC CONTAINED -
Texas' screwworm epidemic still
i.-i present in the Southwestern
and South Central part of the
state. However, Dr. S. B. Walker,
director of the Texas Animal
Health Commission, says the end
may be in sight.

the screwworm eradication pro-
gram began reached its height
two weeks ago. Number of cases
levelled off last week. Federal,
state and private resources are
being used to battle the worm.

ico have filed a motion with the
U.S. Supreme Court for permis-
sion to file a complaint against

of Rio wi 'trido water.

General Carr of Texas and Bos-
ton Witt of New Mexico for al-
iened violations of Rio Grande
Compact providing for releases of

South. Proposed complaint says
Colorado has withheld 939,900
acre-feet of water, as of Decem-
ber 31, 1965.

Supreme Court to require Colo-
rado to deliver the agreed upon
amounts of water at the Colorado-
New Mexico state line, and to
