Bill Heads to Joint Committee on Tax Increases
The Senate plan proposes a three percent hike in the existing ten cent cigarette tax and a one cent cigar tax. It shifts the sales tax base to include services such as credit agencies and temporary help, plus new items like photo finishing and answering services. Corporate tax rates would apply 6.5 percent above 25 000 and 3.5 percent below that. The package also raises the intangibles tax on dealers and on insurance firms. Welfare, education, and mental hygiene receive the largest budget increases, with welfare up 51.2 percent, K 12 up 28 percent, and mental hygiene up 26.3 percent.

Leedy backs low level budget amid tax debate in Ohio
Ohio Senator James K. Leedy joined 16 Republicans and one Democrat in approving the $7.67 billion tax budget bill, opposing the Gilligan administration personal income tax plan. He praised the Senate measure for funding state needs without excess and noted the Homestead exemption, amid volatile national signals on prices and taxes. The lengthy passage also captures broader White House kinship with Emperor Hirohito during a historic U.S. visit and related ceremonial scenes at Elmendorf and Anchorage.
