Michigan Lawmakers Debate Taxes and Safety Bills
Michigan legislators introduced a plan to let states retain 10 percent of federal taxes instead of grants, while county safety patrols would gain Workmen’s Compensation protections. A marriage license hike to three dollars passed the House. a 45 mph minimum speed limit on freeways was approved with a 70 mph maximum. A bill would allow local ordinances to curb box elder bugs by targeting female trees, and another measure would require loyalty oaths for state pay recipients.
