Iowa Tax Reform Urged By Farm Bureau Leaders
The Town Farm Bureau urged immediate action on property taxes at a Democratic state central committee session. Dale Nelson warned that property tax growth of over 20 million yearly threatens Iowa’s economic base and called for funding from other sources to sustain services. Charles Sloca, a Republican candidate for governor, pledges repeal of the tax law if elected, arguing the double tax collection is unjust. Medal note: Lester Moore receives the Bronze Star for WWII valor after delay. Bridges: Iowa has nearly 60 percent of its 1,880 primary road bridges rated fair to poor or worse, signaling vast construction and financing needs.
