asked to contribute one-twentieth of one percent of
their 1978 sales revenue to the defense fund, and
the Municipal League estimates that a minimum of
$200,000 will be needed.
Whatever the cost, the cities of Texas will have
to defend their territory...a major part of their
livelihood is at stake. The one-cent portion of the
sfles tax which is rebated to more than 850 Texas
cities is the biggest single source of revenue for
most, if not all, of them.
U.S. Steel's suit challenges the constitutionality
of the Texas law which, since 1967, has authorized
Texas cities to levy the one-cent tax on a local
option basis.
U.S. Steel argues that the tax is discriminatory
to out-of-state sellers, since they are required to
collect and rebate the tax on sales made in cities
where the tax is levied. A recent change in the
Texas statute, according to the Comptroller's
office, has "taken the wind out of their sails" by
putting out-of-state sellers on the same basis as
out-of-city sellers...all of them must collect the tax
from Page 2]
on sales made to buyers in the Texas cities which
authorize it.
But the case must be heard by the Supreme
Court of Texas, nevertheless, in December, and
will have to be defended there. The discrimination,
if any existed, has been removed...but if
discrimination is found in the original law and a
four-year retroactive settlement is ordered, the
costs to the State and to Texas cities could be
severe.
One thing is sure: the sales tax is vital to the
cities of Texas, and it must be defended against
attack by this out-of-state industrial giant or any
other. Citizens of the cities of Texas authorize the
city sales tax on a local option basis...if a majority
of the residents of the cities of Texas don't approve
it, it can't be levied in their towns. City taxpayers
have repeatedly, and in great numbers, shown
their approval. That's about as democratic as it's
possible to get...and if United States Steel doesn't
like it, maybe they should look for markets
elsewhere.

partially offset by scientific know-how and hard-bought experience.
The geology on this well looks good, but whatever is down there is a
mile and a half beneath the surface and nobody will know for sure
until that expensive hole is made. If it pays off big, that's a
"windfall" in the eyes of the government. If it turns out to be a loss,
that's tough.
In this case, everybody will know In a few days. It doesn't take long
to drill a 7,500-foot well...and the Moran Brothers rig most be on
another location by the first of September. Bat whether it pays off or
not, it will be a small monument to community enterprise and the
generosity of the property owners of this community who have helped
make it possible. In the words of Tiny Tim, "God bless as all."
