State Senate kills tax revision plan by single ballot
The California Senate rejected Governor Ronald Reagan's $1 billion tax revision bill by one vote 26 to 13 as the 1970 session neared adjournment. The absence of Sen Tom Carrell due to illness prevented a needed 27th vote, sparking anger from Reagan and calls for renewed effort next year.

Clyde said the county had counted on about 1.6 million in relief from Assembly bills 1000 and 1091 but doubts linger over a possible special legislative session.

Packard Says Pentagon Buyin g Mess Sparks Reform Push

He cites recent Air Force and Navy lapses and notes the panel backs three deputy secretaries, not one. He rejects one key suggestion and critiques another. The remarks follow Pentagon reorganization debate and GOP opposition to tax measures tied to state revenue relief.

El Capitan referendum setback in judges ruling
Superior Judge Arden Jensen limited the Citizens Committee effort to place a county wide El Capitan Ranch rezoning measure on the November ballot. He requires proof of UCSB students signatures, considers using university registrations, and admitted 9 000 signer cards though some addresses may be invalid.
