Bloc Grant proposal backed by John Surran
The State Government Commission debated L D 1498 in Augusta with John Salisbury of the Maine Municipal Association detailing the bill and its aim for fairer school subsidy disbursement. Biddeford's Richard Sevigny urged support, noting a potential $888,100 allotment versus $135,800 now, a $152,300 increase, and fairness for towns paying more. Delegates from Biddeford and multiple towns supported the proposal, arguing it would distribute aid more equitably and reflect tax contributions.

Murphy Bill Vetoed By Curtis In Maine Augusta
Governor Curtis vetoed the measure extending Liquor Commission chief Timothy J. Murphy's retirement age from 65 to 70. He would not grant the extension without House and Senate amendments reasserting executive discretion and the governor's role in personnel policy. The bill, opposed in the Senate, passed the House by a large margin and would have added five years to Murphy’s service.
