Texas House OKs 6 Million Relief Bond Issue
The Texas House reversed yesterday to pass a conference report on $6,000,000 in state relief bonds by a 120 to 18 vote. The measure, backed by supporters and opposed by some, would empower the state board of control to disburse funds for relief through February next year and issue bonds at 4.25 percent interest. Proceeds would fund relief programs and be spent January to February at $1,500,000 monthly, with $1,000,000 monthly allowed October through December.
