Congressman Explains New State Car Law
Texas advances a driver responsibility measure to curb unpaid damages with penalties. State Representative Jeff Woodruff spoke at St Lukes dinner, noting enforcement by Public Safety costs about 300000 yearly and will not require facial insurance, while drivers must have at least 15000 in liability or settle damages. The law imposes fines and possible jail time for evaders and requires reporting of incidents.

House Passes Tough Price and Wage Control Bill
The House approved a stricter price and wage control measure than anticipated, though short of President Truman’s demands. Administration spokesmen warned it could invite black markets and raise consumer costs, while conference committee work aims to reconcile Senate and House differences before July 31. The vote was 323 to 2, with amendments debated on beef price rollbacks, meat controls, and rent provisions, and with ongoing battles over quotas and consumer protections.
