Am 1 right, is this the school compromise approved by
the state senate override of the Governor's veto?
All school taxes in the state would be pul in one hind
and that fund would be divided equally between the 1 1(X)
or more school tax districts
If that is correct why not divided all income where
every body in the state would have the same income?
• ♦* **
If the veto override holds up and all local tax dollars is
divided equally will all school taxes rate to equal?
Another question, if all school taxes come from the
same fund equally will there ever be a local tax increase
for something that school district taxpayers are willing to
provide their children?

Little thing exacerbate the problems that led to racism,
small things like a misinterpreted look, a failure to say
thank you. a disputed price, and accusation ol shop lilting.
In New York, handbills are passed out calling lor
"African people" to stop shopping With people who do not
like us, do not look like us. and who do not care about us."
Reports out of New York say a black owned radio
station. WLIB, broadcast Korean merchant's "disrespect"
for black people. "They always have a way of treating
people like we are thieves when we go into their stores."

Montague County was once my home. 1 am
embarrassed by stories that blacks are denied the right to
live in the county by implied threats but ugly racisms
really is the result of conflicts of culture and I do
understand. When a friend trying to explain the all white
county said,,"you can t discriminate against blacks ii the
county has none.
for everybody.' one official said.
A source with the Corps said keeping the lake basically
shut down until more ramp access is complete sounds like a
good idea but I don't think it's going to happen.'"

Racism is very ugly, is it really the color of skin that is
the root cause? In New York, the real melting pot ol
America, the Washington Post says racism is the
resentment of Koreans success in running a small
business. Racism also exists between black and Jewish,
Italian. Arabs who have come in and alter making good,
move up.
*****
This is really not a bad idea, the Communist world has
always believed that income should be equal, its never
worked, but maybe our legislature will be able to make it
work better here, but I would want our politicians to make
no more money than 1 do. Well. 1 would not want to go to
far. 1 would not include money that is stolen.

Note story in today's paper. Montague County stays
all white." This deals with our neighboring county to the
north who docs not want blacks in the county
Racial neighbors conflicts are Just a part ol America.
In New York stale (he worse racial conflict is blacks not
wanting Koreans moving in a black neighborhood.
Black's hatred for Koreans moving into their
neighborhoods in spite of mediation attempts and court
injunction against picketing seems only to fanned the
anger in this most recent explosion of resentment toward
Korean merchants in the black communities.
So which side of America is preaching hate? Well it
just depends
To the Editor:
Now pending before the Texas Supreme Court is a ease that
every citizen should know about In Raborn v, 1 the high
court has now, for the first time, approved turnover orders by
District courts that require Judgement debtors to turn over
their future income and paychecks to court appointed
receivers. This is happening despite the provision in our
Texas Constitution that states that "(n)o current wages for
personal services shall ever be subject to garnishment, except
for the enforcement of court-ordered child support payments.
The protections against garnishment in our constitution
have been rendered virtually meaningless. Also, now
creditors are preparing to have judgement debtors placed in
jail for up to six months if they lail to turn over their future
• income and paychecks.

A mere minority of the current nine members of the
Supreme Court appear to be willing to enforce Section 18 ol
the Texas Bill ol Rights which stales: No person shall ever be
imprisoned for debt. Justice Mauzy wrote a dissenting
opinion on February 21, 1990 In his dissent he staled that it
would be unconstitutional to enforce turnover orders by
imprisonment for contempt and noted that imprisonment lor
debt has been prohibited in every version of our Texas
Constitution Justices Lloyd Doggett, C.L. Ray. and Jack
Hightower joined Mauzy's opinion. However. Justice Eugene
leaving the Sanger Access Area as the very popular lake's one
reliable launching spot.
There are. after all, 100.000 boats registered in Dallas
and Tarrant Counties, and most of them are fishing boats.
Heavy crowds at a convenient new lake like Ray Roberts were
inevitable. Opening day. Jan. 1, saw at least 600 boats
launched into the lake despite cold weather. One unofficial
report in March indicated 7(X) boats launched at the Sanger
ramp with a wait of at least two hours to launch or retrieve
craft.
"Corps contractors were working on five additional
permanent launch sites - the ramps are in place, but the
parking areas and access roads are not complete. Three of
those originally were scheduled to be open by late June, but
the rains shut down construction.
"Now. says project engineer Bill Begole, it doesn't look
as if additional ramps will be available by the time Ray
Roberts drops back to a water level near its conservation pool,
which is the level at which the Sanger ramp should be open
for business.
"Even some officials in the Ray Roberts area agree that
the Corps should take this opportunity to complete additional
facilities before throwing the lake open to boating traffic.
"With 20-20 hindsight, completing a couple of more
launch sites before opening Ray Roberts would have been best

How back to the school financing or the game the
governor and the slate legislature are playing.
Lat in the week (Friday May 25) Texas State senators,
fresh from overturning the governors veto took u p the 1/2
cent sales tax to provide schools extra funds. The
governor says he will veto this solution just as soon as it
hits his desk
The house is still considering whether to over-ride
Clements veto of the first bill, ho hum'

Dallas columnist says it all
Fishing on Ray Roberts?
Oh, yes you can, he says
In a recent column in the Dallas Morning Neu?s.
outdoor columnist Ray Sasser dealt the straight story on area
lakes. He wrote:
The boat ramps officially are closed. That doesn't
mean you can’t launch a boat. Corps (of Engineers) lakes
never officially are closed On some lakes, boat launching
still is possible.
At Ray Roberts.. .enterprising fishermen have
discovered a submerged county road north of FM 922 where
they can gel boats in the water. That's the Big Elm Creek area,
and the problem with launching is that you can't yet get a boat
under the FM 922 bridge to fish areas south of the bridge.
"I was personally hoping that the Corps would view the
Hooding at Ray Roberts as a second chance granted by Mother
Nature to get more permanent launch facilities completed
before the lake officially is re-opened to boaters, but that’s
apparently not in the cards.
In my opinion, Ray Roberts should have never opened
in the first place with only one permanent launch site. Two
tempoorary sites were constructed where old road beds hit the
lake but the first heavy spring rains washed them out. cS^o^e, a sepanHe'oidrHm/Rworing^he'power of LouH^'lo
enforce their judgments by imprisonment ( hiel Justice
Phillips. Franklin Spears. Nathan Hecht and Raul Gonzales
have yet to address the issue. It is apparent from their silence
that they do not share Justice Mauzy's opinion in favor ol the
Bill of Rights.
Texas was the first stale to adopt a Hat constitutional
prohibition on imprisonment for debt. In the November
election Texans will have a choice between Mauzy and
Phillips for the position of Chief Justice ol the Texas Supreme
Court. Also, letters should now be written to State
Representatives and Senators requesting that remedial
legislation be proposed and adopted.
It is enough for creditors to have the power to execute their
judgements and seize non-exempt property. It is intolerable
for them to seek to circumvent the Texas prohibition on
imprisonment for debt by the use of turnover orders and
contempt of court.
