Changes Involved in Proposed Highway Legislation
Proposed highway bill transfers primary road powers to the state highway commission, columns duties of boards of supervisors, and directs rapid grading drainage bridging and surface work as funds allow. Caps construction at 30 percent of the primary road fund yearly until grading and bridging are done. Also provides refund of earlier primary road special assessments and ends new assessments. Counties must fund primary road bonds and certificates from the primary fund with limits tied to county area allotments.

Senator Lange Proposes Bank Stock Deposits and Surplus Tax Breaks
Senator Lange of Dubuque introduces two banking bills. One requires bank stockholders to deposit approved stock equal to par value and adds 10 percent if deposits exceed ten times capital and surplus. The other aims to exempt surplus from taxation to encourage larger bank surpluses and backing for deposits. Senator Eys favors guaranteed 100 percent on stock assessments and a large surplus to back deposits, arguing removal of surplus from tax evaluations makes banks profitable for bigger surpluses.
