District faces financing losses from reassessment methods
Pecos-Barstow Toyah ISD Superintendent Ray Whitley told the board the district faces serious two year revenue losses estimated at 417 831 unless assessment methods are changed. He noted the state report shows higher total valuation than the district levies, with intangible and vehicle values largely uncollected or overvalued. He urged legislative action to remove intangibles from tax base and consider raising assessment ratios. The meeting also reported 4167 students enrolled as of Sept 8, 1978, 542 breakfast program participants, five new teachers appointed, and staff changes across several campuses.

Bentsen warns Carter may seek scapegoat over gas deal
Sen. Lloyd Bentsen argues the administration backed natural gas compromise would not fix the dollar's weakness. He pins blame on inflation, large deficits, regulation and overtaxing exports, and predicts DOE budget rises and heavier regulatory burden if the bill passes. He notes the compromise deregulates less gas in 1985 than current law and cites Energy Information Administration projections.
