This is unthinkable,, of course.
No lawmaker could go home and
face the voters with things in such
a state.
But there’s another pinching
factor which the governor empha-
sized. Cost of deficit financing
plus loss of potential tax income
means that each day’s delay costs
the state an estimated $200,000.
Despite this, the House took a
four-day weekend and the Senate,
3% days.
But some lawmakers seemed to
feel the delays, deadlocks and
head-knocking were not necessar-
ily expensive wasted motion, but
milestones along the long, hard
road to democratic compromise.

we won’t have to cross again,”

AUSTIN, Tex—At it again, for
the third time this year, Legisla-
tors go into the second special
session wearier, but wiser.
Midnight wind-up of the second
session brought show-down votes
indicating what each house will
and will not accept in the way of
a . tax program. Next conference
committee on taxes will know that
the line of compromise must be
more finely drawn between Senate
and House thinking.
In addressing the new session,
Gov. Price Daniel reminded law-
makers of the “up against it
state of things. “Every function
of state government depends on
enactment of an appropriation bill
before Sept. 1 with a tax bill to
support it” said the governor.
No Surrender . . .
Legislature was thrown into an-
other session when the House re-
jected, 117 to 23, a conference
committee tax bill that was large-
ly based on Senate thinking.
Senate approved, 19 to 12.
Some House members were n-
dignant that three of the five
House appointees signed the con-
ference committee report which
House opponents called a “com-
plete surrender” to Senate wishes.
House passed a tax bill that was
divided about 50-50 between taxes
on business and selective sales
taxes. Senate pared back the
business taxes to about 18 per
cent, added new or heavier sales
taxes to make up the difference.
Conference committee proposed
a bill that would have raised $177,-
066,000 with essentially the same
levies approved by the Senate plus
a temporary hike from $1 to $2 in
drivers licenses.
Appropriations conference com-
mittee was reportedly deadlocked
and never made a report.
After the new session opened,
most of the same taxing and spend-
ing bills were introduced again,
including the twice-killed aban-
doned property bill. -
House quickly re-passed the
same appropriation bill it had
passed before. Most bills are ex-
pected to follow the same pattern
they did in the last special ses-
sion—up to the point where the
conference committees start work-
ing out differences.
One Made it . . .
Only major money bill to make
the grade is the bookkeeping bill,
passed by both Houses and signed
into law by the governor.
