Hope for North Carolina tax cut fades in Senate action

The plan would have raised the dependency exemption from 300 to 400 dollars if revenues hit 532 million in 1965 66, with opposition from Gov. Dan Moore. The House also approved funding for mental health training and required insurers to explain why auto policies are not renewed, while the Budget Commission must be notified when agencies seek non state funds for new programs.
