Tow truck add ons spark debate in city council election
Mason says add-on towing charges may be unnecessary and asks Police Chief Stewart to monitor implementation by Sherman's Permian and Neal Pool. The ordinance requires four wreckers per firm and a 25 ton wrecker. District Judge Connally declined to block a temporary contract with Permian due to lack of public funds. Chrysler faces strike risk as UAW negotiates, with leaders warning of potential crippling effects and noting no extra funds exist to grant raises. Fraser argues for a redesigned package with upfront money.

Consumers increase spending despite modest income gain
Americans boosted consumer spending by 1 percent in September while personal income rose only 0.3 percent. Wages declined about 400 million from August, with a 3.2 billion drop in manufacturing payrolls. Unemployment rose and durable goods industries led payroll declines, though government transfers and investment income rose. Reagan officials say consumer spending is key to recovery as retail sales show uneven gains.

Constitution bonds and four year terms seek voter approval
In a statewide ballot readers face a bond measure tied to inflation with opponents arguing higher interest increases debt costs. Also on the ballot are Prop 4 to extend terms for water and reclamation boards and Prop 5 to abolish county treasurer in Tarrant and Bee counties with duties moving to the county auditor after a local vote. The issue traces to 1979 and 1981 legislative moves and prior attorney general rulings on constitutional changes.
