Move To Abolish Equalization Board Buried

Harrisburg United Press International reports a plan to top the state tax equalization board was buried in the House. The bill would replace the three member board with an office of equalization in the internal affairs department led by a governor appointed director. The ripper amendments to abolish the board were added to a time limits bill by Rep. Steckel and Rep. Korns. The measure failed 87 to 98 after a rejected motion to commit to appropriations. Rural areas have debated since 1959 when the board’s report cut school subsidies for many farms and raised urban subsidies.
