Oklahoma House Defeats Salary Increase
Oklahoma City March 4. The Oklahoma house defeated a bill to raise salaries for all major state officials by a close vote of 45 to 42, short of the 53 needed. Legislators criticized the proposed raises to 5900 a year for district judges and debated reconsideration opportunities. The session also advanced joint resolutions to place a constitutional amendment to privatize management of Oklahoma A and M College under a new appointed board. Additionally, a free text book bill was saved from defeat by adopting a minority report. A squirrel hunting open season measure was approved with a daily limit of six and May 1 to January 1 permit.
