Briscoe and Farenthold Trade Barbs in Texas Campaign

Governor Dolph Briscoe launches re election bid claiming integrity and tax relief while Frances Farenthold assails his handling of cattle brucellosis testing and the energy crisis. She criticizes vetoes and warns of a looming beef crisis as both speak in El Paso and Dallas Fort Worth. Briscoe touts lower insurance rates, no new taxes for 20 years, and energy policy reforms as he and Farenthold tour Texas venues.

Texas Railroad Commission Excluded From Constitution

The Texas Railroad Commission was struck from the proposed state constitution by an 87 78 vote of the Constitutional Convention. The change would let the legislature decide the commission's future and could alter how members are selected. Opponents cited gas supply crises involving Coastal States Producing Co and Austin San Antonio Corpus Christi. The convention also approved a measure dissolving state agencies every 10 years unless renewed, and kept the Pardons and Paroles Board in the constitution.
