West Virginia lawmakers plan to test a public disclosure bill on Monday after a weekend adjournment. The House Judiciary Committee will also review motorcycle bills, a data processing system for the Statehouse, an Urban Mass Transportation Authority, welfare law revisions, and bond rules for the Industrial Development Authority.

Two Bills Seek State Investment Reform

Two bills in the West Virginia legislature propose more flexible use of surplus general revenues. One would allow short term investment in West Virginia banks and the other would raise from 35 percent to 5 percent the cap on fixed interest corporate bonds. State Treasurer John H. Kelly supports the measures but says they do not fully align WV with other states. He notes many states invest beyond U S bonds, including 42 states in common stocks. Kelly estimates the depository bill would add about 150000 in interest in fiscal 1968 69, assuming a five percent yield versus current four percent. He cites 1965 66 interest of 502000 rising to 551000 in 1966 67 and projects 750000 for 1968 69. He adds WV has about 18 million in surplus funds annually and sees the figure rising. the State Board of Investments oversees these investments, previously limited to U S government bonds from funds like Teachers Retirement and Workmen's Compensation.
