Iowa state revenues rise 19.4 percent in November
State receipts jumped driven by double digit gains in personal income, use, and sales taxes. November total near $295 million, five month collections exceed $1.366 billion up 11.1 percent from a year earlier. Corporate income tax fell 29.6 percent. The REC will use these figures to review 1993 growth estimates for the 1994 budget debate.

Branstad proposes hunt for delinquent payments
Gov. Branstad seeks to borrow on the Great Iowa Treasure Hunt plan to track down taxpayers and debtors owed state money. A central collections system is under study with an accounting firm while officials pursue public disclosure of names. The effort targets hundreds of millions in past due obligations, led by child support, with legal hurdles possible in 1993.
