Vet Loans and School Issues Dominate California Ballot
Sacramento reports that a veterans farm and home loan measure a public school funding proposal and a non profit school property tax exemption referendum headline the November 4 ballot. Secretary of State Frank M. Dovdan released the official list of 23 constitutional amendments initiatives and referendums. The school initiative could cost over 60 million dollars yearly. A previous non profit school tax exemption bill needs voter approval to become law. A second constitutional measure seeks funds for schoolhouse construction via an extra bond. Gov. Earl Warren plans a special session in August to consider a new school construction bond if needed.

Truman panel calls repeal of Buy American acts and boosts imports
A five man commission led by William Paley urged repeal of the Buy American act and similar laws to curb foreign procurement. The report says current tariffs and restrictions hinder recovery, material costs rise, and imports may need to reach about one fifth to one quarter of demand to meet growing needs through 23 years. It calls for synthetic fuels study, expansion of hydroelectric capacity, St. Lawrence seaway development, and tighter timber conservation with potential federal rules after five years.
