Texas Legislature Faces Deadlock And Tax Proposals
In East Texas districts the federal government has built 1400 dipping vats at over 500000 dollars. Speaker Calvert formed a conference committee to align Senate and House pardon and parole board bill provisions while preserving a House salary of 3000 dollars, below the Senate figure. House actions included a nine cent oil tax, 2.25 dollar per ton sulfur tax, five cent per pound carbon black tax, and 20 percent taxes on punch-board prizes. A constitutional amendment seeks a 3000 dollar annual salary for legislators, plus eight member grand juries and a unicameral legislature. House considered actions on public school tax instruction and delinquent tax collection before adjourning. Senate rules hinder general bills until the session’s final sixty days. Lt. Gov. Woodul enforces this, prompting Sen. Woodruff to seek a rule change to admit Senate bills until March 5.
