Nuisance tax is cast aside for new plan
Atlanta reports a shift in postures during the extra session as discussions focus on tax revisions. The plan aims to raise income by the Boykin bill and to cut 1931 appropriations by 10 to 15 percent, favoring fewer new taxes and favoring rental and realty measures. Strong politics shape the discourse with opposition from the school group over appropriations and unpaid balances, while Peterson Martin ideas are softened but pursued.
