Iowa Legislature Faces Slow Progress on Code Revision and Tax Reform
Des Moines February 6 1923 The General Assembly after a month shows limited success with Code revision receding to a minor issue. The Tax Commission's 60 page report proposes abolishing local assessors, creating a state board of assessment and a state budget board plus a 10 percent amusement tax and a one cent gas tax to fund road and school needs. Debate over township assessors and the fate of the budget plans suggests major work may require a special session, while highway funding faces House approval and Senate scrutiny over an information request on federal aid program expenditures.

The Soldiers' Bonus case before the state supreme court set for February 13 may affirm bond legality and trigger rapid payments to World War I veterans.
