State taxes hit new peak as valuations soar
State taxes rise from 5.8 million to 8.9 million, a record 8.81 mills, with a projected shortfall of 600000 for the general fund. Governor Lister vetoes several general fund items totaling 1467000, including highway and bridge bills, while education levies remain contested. A North Dakota market note warns Kennewick peaches face shipment risks from a fruit trust and consigned cars. The Courier invites reader letters and continues a series by Chas H Collins on valley fruit business.
