Daniel Pleads for Okay of Texas Tax Plan
Gov Price Daniel urged passage of his budget balancing plan in a letter to Rep W L (Bo) Ramsey chair of the House Revenue and Taxation Committee. The plan would credit the general revenue fund with remaining omnibus tax clearance funds to Aug 31, aiming to raise about 18 million dollars, amid committee criticism. A second test looms as a hearing on a proposed one year emergency hike in the corporate franchise tax moves ahead, boosting it from 2.25 to 2.85 per thousand and expected to raise 14 million.
