Southland Wins First Round In Gas Tax Battle
A California Assembly transport committee backed a 60-40 split for gasoline tax revenues, moving Southern California closer to parity with the North. The vote, 10 to 2, favored shifting funds to the South, with proponents arguing Southern California has long been underrepresented. If approved, about 146 million dollars over four years would go to Southern California, altering the long standing distribution.

Group Forms to Aid Accused Abortionists
A committee of 48 prominent Northern California figures urged public donations Tuesday to defend nine physicians charged with performing therapeutic abortions. Leaders include William K. Coblentz and Chauncey D. Leake as co chairs of the defense fund. They say the cost should not fall on the doctors and defend the right of scientists to ethical practice without retaliation. The physicians reportedly performed abortions for women who had German measles early in pregnancy, a time when deformed fetal risks exist, noting California law allows abortion only to save the mother’s life.
