AUSTIN, Tex.—Both pto- and
anti-sales taxors declare they're in
i better position now that Gov.
Price Daniel lias dropped his sup-
port of the payroll tax plan.
Pro-sales taxers say this will
leave the Legislature practically
no choice but to |>ass a general
sales tax. Put opponents say it
clears the way to getting down
to “numerous other plans."
In his message dropping the
oayroll tax. the governor also
suid that he felt neither a sales
nor un income tux had u chance
of passage. He recommended in-
stead the State Finance Advisory
Commission’s second choice plan,
extension of excise taxes.
Under thiss plan, new items to
lx- taxed would include restaurant
meals, gas and electric household
appliances, jewelry and watches,
soft diinks, building materials,
business machines, home and of-
fice furnishings and boat and
automobile parts.
Taxes on these items would he
increased: motor vehicles, gaso-
line, air conditioning, (to in-
clude central systems!, cosmetics,
beer, liquor, wine, and boats and
motors.

Elective Insurance Hoard
A proposal to giant the people
the right to elect the members of
the Insurance Hoard has been in-
troduced by Rep. David Head of
Big Spring.
The appointive Hoard has been
under severe critiseism for several
years, especially since it suddenly
increased insurance rates on mot-
orists based on traffic violations.
Bill is patterned after the law
requiring the election of the Hail-
road Commissioners. It is tin-
sponsor’s Ig'lief that the public
would be given more considera-
tion if the insurance posts were
elective positions.

Auto Insurance Plan Hit
Texas’ merit rating plun for
auto insurance came in for heavy
criticism as the Senate Insurance
Committee considered a measure
calling for extensive changes.
Sen. Grady Ha 7.1e wood of Amar-
illo declared that, at present, It’s
not how you drive, hut whether
you get caught that determines
your insurance premiums.
Under a revised plan sponsored
by Sen. Haslewood insurance
premiums would he raised only
for more serious traffic viola-
tions. No penalty points would be
assigned for anything that hap-
pened before January 1. I960.

A bill to raise the amount the
State M’ater Development Board
can lend for local water projects
trained final passage from both
Houses. ,
It will become law with the gov-
ernor’s signature. Governor Daniel
favors the bill, called it "a great
step forward." Pill will allow the
board to lend up to $15,000,000
for any one water project.
Another water measure under
consideration would allow the
state to buy conservation storage
space in Texas reservoirs, saving
and selling water that would oth-
erwise run off. It is in the form
of a constitutional amendment
and is sponsored by Sen. George
Parkhouse of Dallas.
Supporters hope to gain legis-
lative approval in time to have it
put on the ballot at the same time
as the run-off in the special sena-
torial race.

Women Lose Round
M’omen's rights advocates lost
by one vote an effort to get their
proposed constitutional amendment
sent immediately to the Senate
floor.
Instead, the amendment design-
ed to wipe out with one stroke
all differences in legal treatment
of men ami women was sent to
subcommittee.
A large delegation of women
came to plead for the measure.
Objectors said a law-by-law ap-
proach should Ih* taken to avoid
legal chaos.

School Day Increase
House passed to the Senate a
bill which would increase the time
during which a child may be legal-
ly compelled to uttend school.
Present requirement is to uttend
school from 7 to 16 years of age
for 120 days each year. House
bill would change the age limit
from <i to 10 years of age and the
school year to ISO days.
At the request of Hep. Jack
Woods of Waco, the House remov-
ed a provision that would have
required 17-year-olds to stay in
school.

like work” among state employees

tem and raises the sularies of

category. No salary cut:- would be
