Texas tax plan faces mixed buy in House hearing
Gov. Preston Smith’s initial tax program drew strong objections from beer, cigarette, coin laundry and cable TV interests at a House Revenue and Tax Committee hearing. Coin laundries warned of redesign costs for nickel slot machines while tobacco and beer groups warned of revenue losses. Floor vote on the bill is likely to be delayed about three weeks. Welfare and public assistance make headlines as AFDC grants face cuts and a Aug 5 special election may seek constitutional amendments on welfare, bonds, and the Texas Water Plan.
