Legislators to study share wealth plan
Sacramento legislators will study Assemblyman John Burton’s share wealth proposal after adjournment. The plan would cap inheritance at 1 million for non spouses and tax all income on a sliding scale from 2.5 million to 10 million for a family of four, with Burton noting Gov. Reagan likely will not sign it. Burton compares wealth concentration to Huey Long and cites data on income distribution, while opponents argue hard work and saving should allow passing wealth to heirs.

Israeli desert farming breakthrough promises global use
Dr. Michael Evenari of Hebrew University claims to grow apricots, peaches, and more in the Negev with only three inches of annual rainfall by channeling water into Nabatean style catchment areas and distributing it via canals. He notes plants require 20 to 30 percent less water than previously thought, suggesting wide saving possibilities amid global water shortages. Bedouin nomads already visit his experimental farm to learn the method. France owns Saint Pierre and Miquelon islands near Newfoundland.
