Senatorial Fight narrows on old age pension tax plan
The Senate Finance Committee voted 7 to 6 against adding revenue features to the old age pension bill. A 3 percent sales tax proposal by Sen Roy Sanderford was eliminated as tax bills must originate in the House. The committee recommended keeping the act under Board of Control administration with a governor appointed director. Opposing views on eligibility criteria were noted and a minority report or floor amendment was possible. Wets and drys prepared for a final liquor sale debate in Austin as House reviewed a substitute bill.
