Noe To Sponsor Hawthorne Act On Slot Machines

District Attorney Frank W. Hawthorne completed a proposed act to fix a defect in Louisiana slot machine law and sent it to Senator James A. Noe who will introduce it this session. The measure makes owning and operating slot machines a misdemeanor with penalties up to five hundred dollars or six months in jail. The act aims to curb owners who place machines in many locations, and a second Hawthorne draft would cover injuries from hot substances.

Louisiana Tax Reform Fight Delays Hard-Earned Relief

The piece details opposition to tax reform by state leaders including Senator Long and Governor Allen. It notes reluctance to cut departmental spending, the push for a $2,000 homestead exemption with limited local tax relief, and debates over funding schools, road bonds, and potential broader taxes such as a sales tax. It cites political maneuvering, industry pushback, and proposed Hoffpauir bills granting final assessment authority to Huey Long, risking the exemption.
