Gully Tax Question Broadens to Cheyenne County
The state tax commissioner challenges county exemptions on 31 Cheyenne County properties including a gully owned by Western Construction Co and the Memorial Hospital. If taxed, hospital operations could face higher rates, threatening finances. The move stems from a Legislature effort to scrutinize tax exempt organizations led by Sen. Carpenter and Ak-Sar-Ben concerns.

Wheat program would raise domestic price to $2 a bushel
President Johnson backs a new wheat plan, with a House sub committee approved bill. It would be voluntary for farmers, offer marketing certificates worth 70 cents per bushel for domestic use, and set a $1.30 per bushel price support. Cooperating farmers could earn at least $2 a bushel on the domestic share, while export certificates add 25 cents. The bill shifts costs to mills, exporters, and consumers, aiming to stabilize prices without government burden.
