Ohio lawmakers move to sidetrack tax bills with new commission plan
Special correspondence from Columbus reports a House bill by Frasey of Lucas proposing a three member State Tax Commission appointed by the Governor to study tax policy and draft constitutional amendments for the next General Assembly. A $20,000 appropriation funds salaries and expenses. The plan aims to push the commission appointment first and defer current taxation measures. Also noted is a bill by Senator Harding appointing five appointees to study Ohio tuberculosis, with a $500 expense cap. Additional items include allowances for Children's Homes trustees and opposition from local farmers and Pomona Grange to game law changes.
