Austin. Tex. — A federal
rourt lawsuit filed with little
fanfare may have far reaching
ctwisequanoes for the state's wel-
fare system and finance*.
Suit challenges the ono-year
s^ale residency requiremertt for
eligibility ta receive aid to nee-
dy families with dependent
< hiHlraj. Actually, the issue
goe* considerably farther than
a single class of assistance,
Texas attach*’* this residence
requirement to all major types
of welfare eligibility.
Welfare outlays in the state
last year lotalKnl 5157,9110,000 of
which 565.fi00.0tW was state mo-
ney.
Attorney* ft*’ Mrs. Angelina
B. Ahwsre* cif San Antonio, moth-
er of six children, entered the
federal court suit to requite the
State Department of Public Wel-
fare to grant her AFDC assis-
tance, althoueh she admittedly
haa not lived in the state a year.
Suit claims the residence re-
striction is uneonstitutional,
since 78 per cent of A FIX’
fundsl are [irovided by federal
"overnmerat.
Atty. Gen Crawford C. Mar-
tin. in an answering brief, ei-
gorousiy defends the state con-
stltirtk«a! and statutory provi-
sions requiring a year's resi-
dency for welfare beneficiaries.
Lack of such restrictions, con-
tends Martin, would create a
"nomad" clash of state-to-state
wanderers.
Legislatures of 40 states and
tl’ongrcss recognize a residency
requirement as a condition of
eligibility, Martin urges. Suit,
ho maintains, would compel with
drawvil of uw.ney front the
state treasury without a pre-
existing law
A Pennsylvania federal dis-
trict court has upheld a similar
resU’tctiiHi us the on*> applied in
Texas, tail a CbrmeetScut court
threw out that state’s limitation
ux unciaisitutiomii ivslrictton tat
free travel. Latter suit now has
gone to the L’.S. Sufireme (iturt
for review.
Texas case soon will be heard
by a three-judge court.
Tax Bill Legislative Budget
Bound staff forecasters see a
5122.SOO.OU0 tax bill as neces-
sary’ to finance ttie $468,900,000
general revenue spending bill
tentatively recommended by the
Board for I960 This is about
J45.000.000 above 19fi8’s spend-
ing level of 544,’’ 900,000.
According to staff prcdSctfont.
SB45.fM>0.000 in general revenue
will be available for Spending
in 1969 after automatic deduc-
tions of money for earmark-
ed purposes.
Governors Asked For Advice
State Constitutional Revision
Commission pane! has voted to
call on Gov. John Connaliy anl
ex-Govs. Price Daniel and Al-
lan Shivers for advice on Ix’st
standards for deciding how to
cfiange the governor’s powers
ami length of term.
Executive office committee
debated at length whether the
governor should be limited to
one or two four-year terms and
whether Texas should adopt a
cabinet” form of state govern-
ment with strong governor pro-
vision*.
Courts Speak - State Supre-
me Court and Third Court of Ci-
vil Appeal* in two recent de-
cision* concluded that u formet
State Saving* and G*«n Com-
miisloner should have gr«nt«xl
authority for loan • savings tsm-
corn* in downtow n Houston and
Richardson. Applications had
been dented by the Commission
er
Court of (’nminal Appeals up-
tu-id a Harrison County jury
verdict of life imprisonment for
n man convicted of drowning
hi* wife.
Same Court afnrnud a 20
year drntence of a San Angelo
man for the slaying of a cab
driver in 1966.
