Senate Cool To Tax——
With Ickn than bubbling on
thuslusm, Senate State Affairs
began hearings on the first tax
liill sent over by the House.
It Is Rep Charles Mailman's
"loophole liill" designed to raise
•ome ft!.not),non toward retiring
an expected $6.1.000,000 deficit
In the general revenue fund.
Senators listened with seem-
ing sympathy to witnesses who
crltlrod the bill's provision for a
revised franchise tnx formula and
a gift tax. They listened, too. to
a lengthy pro-sales lax discussion
by Tom Sealy of Midland, chair-
man of the Cltliena for a Sales
Tax grout.
I’nder the nallman bill's broad
caption, the Senate will be eager
to eeixe the initiative at this stage.

Insurance Change Flounder*—
H* n. Grady llaxlewood's bill to
*«>t ground rules for the state's
merit rating auto insurance has
had st least a temposry set-hack
Senate voted l6-to-13 to take
up the bill. However, a two-
thirds majority is needed to begin
floor action
l’rlor to this action, the State
Board of Insurance announced ex-
tensive changes in the rating plan,
effective August 1. Such viola-
tions as running a red light or
atop sign, illegal passing or turn-
ing, negligent collision and break-
ing of drivers' license restrictions
were removed from the list of ac-
tions causing n driver to pav
higher insurance rates.
Senator Haxlewood was not
satisfied with the changes. He
criticised the removal of red light
running from the list and the
keeping of penalties for speeding,
no matter how slight.
Freight Kate liill I'mencd—
A liill to simplify rate setting
for railroads and truckers was
passed on second reading by the
House,

Commission litis to pass on every

would go Into effect. If there
were objections, the Railroad
Commission would call a hearing
and decide th*' matter.
