Compromise on Cigarette Tax Talks Collapse in Arkansas
In Little Rock Arkansas Senate House conference talks to raise cigarette taxes failed with no further meetings planned. The Senate backed a three cent hike per package while the House added five cents. The panel rejected four and four and four percent discount-rate compromises and debated wholesalers discounts now set at five percent. The session also included House approval of 17 appropriation bills and debate over a public relations allowance for members, a gubernatorial signing of a real property tax transfer bill, and moves to place an audit division under legislative oversight. The Senate advanced a budget control measure requiring annual agency work plans and quarterly progress reports.

Lawmakers debate school aid amid rotational funding changes
Senator Guy H. Jones attacked the administration’s control of program modifications while an amendment would lift per district funding to 105 percent in the first year and 107 percent in the second, with over 9 million more in aid.

Ray Smith’s bid to revise the aid formula and other measures passed, including an opportunity department bill and liquor outlet hours changes, though some provisions were amended to keep Texarkana and West Memphis stores open past midnight.
