Third Committee Is Requested For Conference on Diversion Differences Between Houses
The Colorado Senate voted 18 to 0 to appoint a third conference committee to reconcile House and Senate differences on Governor Ralph L Carr’s income diversion plan. The plan would divert income tax revenues up to July 1, 1941 to balance the state budget, with veto risk over a compromise diverting less than 6.6 million dollars to the general fund. Senator Mose S. Smith proposed a compromise of 3.624 million with reinstatement of a 2 percent service tax to raise needed revenue, aiming to finish the current fiscal year and support the 1939-44 biennium without new taxes. Lieutenant Governor John A. Vivian named Senator Latimer and Robert G. Cosworth to the third conference committee.

Porto Rico Opposes Philippine Independence Act Preference
James A. Dickey of the Porto Rican Sugar Producers Association urged committee leaders to block any change to the Philippine Independence Act that grants the Philippines a longer preferred status in the U S sugar market. He argued the act already provides a guaranteed long term share and would harm domestic sugar producers by extending preferential treatment and quotas for 16 years.
