Texas Governor Warns Economy Could Drive Higher Sales Tax
Governor Price Daniel warned on a 30-station TV hookup that Texas must focus on economy measures or the 2 percent sales tax could rise to 3 or 4 percent in coming years. He cited that two thirds of the 34 general sales tax states increased to 3 percent or more, with four at 4 percent, and urged prudent economy and reorganization to prevent higher rates. The tax takes effect Sept 1 and Daniel noted his opposition to such levies since 1939.
