ble «THE NE VADA erry NU 4GGET _FAGE SEV EN FRIDAY, _MAY 10, 1935. USLATIVE JETTER by Graham Berry (By WWU Service) Like two turtles racing a_ rabbit across the cornfield, are the state .ax and social security programs as eompared with the adjournment date of tke present. session. The Asseniily realizes this, and as the rabbit nears the finish. line, away ahead of his competitors. the lower House is trying to persuade him to take a nap before the race is over. In other words, although the Sennie has suggested that May 19 be the final deadline, the Assembly has decided to stick it out until its work is cleaned up. It is claimed that the turtles will finish the race about May 25, which at present appears to be the favored elosing date. The work of the newly-formed Joini-Assembly Tax Committee has speeded .he tax program by tentatively aoprovin:, $120,000,000 in new budget-baluncing revenues. Action fs promised this week on a series of unemployment bills. Assemblyman Anderson, who has been dressing up the bills in a sub-committee, says that business and industry favor state unemployment insurance and are doing their bit by giving the eommittee plenty of co-operation. Another social insurance measure has finally escaped committee with a . do-pass recommend. It -is the state public health insurance bill, requiring compulsory insurance tor medical and kospital attention, which has~ been approved by the upper House public health and quarantine conmnittee, Financing the plan calls for a5 per cent payroll deductionO14 per cent from the emptove and 1% _ per eent from the employer. The measure covers only those: receiving $3,000 a year or less, making eepiae ty Laas of members of health-bencfit 2 FRR So Sraternal organizations which have been in operation five years and have 4 membership of at least 2.500. Other exemptions include Californians who are Christian Scientists and city em: ployes who are members of health insurance associations, such as the persennel of the city of Los Angeles, wha, have their own insurance program. After many highly vocal hearings, @ommittees are beginning to yield up important legislation at last. The assembly ways and means committee has do-passed AB 767, calling for substantial increases in the California old age pension allowances. With their practically unanimous approval— at least according to vote—of the Townsend Penison plan, passage of the new brli by the Assembly ‘is considered eertain. It calls for a minimum $25-dollara@month allotment for needy old people. The maximum is $35 per month. It would tower the eligibility age from 70 to 65 years, retaining the present requirement of 15 years residence in the state. Assemblyman Hornblower, vif @ponsor,.said that this bill will cost Galifornia an addition six to eight miltion a biennium. He feels, however, that the aged deserve this. Under the present law, the maximum is $30 a month, the state and° counties going 56-50 on the cost. Actually, under this system, the needy receive little more than $20 per month. Hornblower will also sponsor. a resolution asking Congress to amend pending legislation for Federal old age pension aid so California -will be @igible for funds. The amendment has to do primarily with the length of residence required of applicants. The Hornbiower bill says that old people owning homes need not surrender them obtain pensions. specifically small to More Money Matters During the first weeks of the session, the Legislature might have been eompared to the too many cooks who spoiled the broth, as far as workimg out a sound financial program was eoncerned. All but one chief chef was eliminated by formation of the Senate-Assembly Tax Committee. Now the committee might’ well be i¥kened to the old woman in the shoe. ‘Bhere are still so many tax programs floating around that it’s hard to tell what to do. The budget steering committee, in trying to offset the state loss of $60,600,000 in revenue through transfer of the utility property tax to local rolls as voted by the people, considered three suggestions: A state ud valorem tax. A gross transaction tax. Delay in making the utility tax transfer. Thumbs were pointed down on all three propositions. By this action three things were disclosed. First, that this particular problem is still as unsetiled as at the beginning of the session. Second, that the state may be forced to take over personal property tax on automobiles, although this levy would only raise $25,000,000 a biennium. Third, that the committee is in close touch with the desires of the public. This last-named fact was_ first evidenced some time ago when the committee first formulated its “minimum budget” plan. Later it went on record as opposing all “nuisance” taxes which include amusement, tobacco, soft drink, candy, jewelry and sporting goods levies.

Protests from all corners of the state have at last drow.ed out the bills. at least as far as the present session is concerned, opponents believe, Final stzuggles took place last week In’ the senate roads and highways committee’ when Senator Bigger, one of the bills sponsors, sought to drag them out of committee and place them on the upper House floor. He said he wanted to offer amendments to them. The committee, which had turned the measures down some time ago, crushed his motion 27 to 9. Declared Senator Edwards, commnittee chairman, “I see nu reason for These bills have been given consideration by the com mittee and I believe the opinion of the committee should be respected.” Senator Scollan, one of the several authors of the bills when they were first introduced, withdrew his support because, he said, the plan does not do what he believed in the beginning it would. fe This ladies and gentlemen, is a good example of a bill being killed in committee. As there were not enogh assemblymen who thought the resolution “improper and embarrassing” to Governor Merriam, the Assembly refused to recede from its original resolve to urge the governor to commute the sentences of Thomnas Mooney and Warren Billings, who were convicted of the San Francisco Preparadness day bombing. On a revote, the resolution carried, 44 to 33. 2 The governor gave a cool reception to the resolve. He said, “TI regret the resolution was not made concurrent so that the Senate might also express its views. An expression of the entire Legislature would be of much more importance.” After the lower House had made this move, it turned around and voted 39 to 29 against withdrawing from committee an act making showing of perjured testimony grounds for a habcas corpus action after final judgment. This affects Mooney’s case, ‘lessening his chances for freedom. City in Spotlight The city of San Francisco is in the legislative spotlight this week, first, in its effort. to gain control of the state-owned harbor of San Francisco. This issue will mean a battle at the Capitol, powerful farming being opposed to the move. claim thst the bulk of the produce cleared through the harbor comes from agricultural districts and that iould have something to say about determining the harbor policies, If the city gets the harbor, this power will be relinguishod. received legislative a day of debate They Again the city attention when, after the Assembly approved a bill, 59: to 16, which gives the California Toll Bricze Authority permissive power to provide through acquisition or construction, transportation facilities to and over the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge and transportation facilities connectiny within an area of 50 miles from either end of the bridge. This action sanctions: the Authority’s efforts to negotiate for a $15,000,000 lozn from the RFC to: fihance the work. Three days after the Florida state Senate had passed an anti-chain store bill, the Califorina Assembly passed the Cronin-McMurray bill, placing a tax of $500 on each store of companies having over ten on their chain. This measure is causing one of the major battles at Sacramento, many legislators believing it an outrage to private business to place such heavy taxes on the chain systems. It is certain that such a bill will cripple the chains so that it will be unprofitable for them to operate in this state. The chains declared that Califorina farmers would suffer by losing one of the their largest purchasers if the law is passed. Backers of the measure savy that if the chains go, that other privately-owned stores will take, their place. Building and loan fiascos are over in California. At least this is what backers: of the bill regulating California building and loan associations claim. The bill has passed both houses and awaits the pen of Merriam. It provides for the rehabilitation: of organizations in financial distress. Some have criticized the measure as not sufficiebtly protecting depositors, but all agree it i a great improvement over existing laws covering the building and ioan business: interests !

Road Bill Killed . scheduled to sail trom .Seattie, May . \pog pes pes nes Sa z e Off again, on again, gone again: 115, will be similarly feted: The JumNOUR RRR URL LL Ur ue enig ay bee ge tm pg has been the stormy history of the administration road-consolidation bills‘at the present sessicn. Protests from all corners of the state have at last drow.ed out the bills. at least as far as the present session is concerned, opponents believe, Final stzuggles took place last week In’ the senate roads and highways committee’ when Senator Bigger, one of the bills sponsors, sought to drag them out of committee and place them on the upper House floor. He said he wanted to offer amendments to them. The committee, which had turned the measures down some time ago, crushed his motion 27 to 9. Declared Senator Edwards, commnittee chairman, “I see nu reason for These bills have been given consideration by the com mittee and I believe the opinion of the committee should be respected.” Senator Scollan, one of the several authors of the bills when they were first introduced, withdrew his support because, he said, the plan does not do what he believed in the beginning it would. fe This ladies and gentlemen, is a good example of a bill being killed in committee. As there were not enogh assemblymen who thought the resolution “improper and embarrassing” to Governor Merriam, the Assembly refused to recede from its original resolve to urge the governor to commute the sentences of Thomnas Mooney and Warren Billings, who were convicted of the San Francisco Preparadness day bombing. On a revote, the resolution carried, 44 to 33. 2 The governor gave a cool reception to the resolve. He said, “TI regret the resolution was not made concurrent

so that the Senate might also express its views. An expression of the entire Legislature would be of much more importance.” After the lower House had made this move, it turned around and voted 39 to 29 against withdrawing from committee an act making showing of perjured testimony grounds for a habcas corpus action after final judgment. This affects Mooney’s case, ‘lessening his chances for freedom. City in Spotlight The city of San Francisco is in the legislative spotlight this week, first, in its effort. to gain control of the state-owned harbor of San Francisco. This issue will mean a battle at the Capitol, powerful farming being opposed to the move. claim thst the bulk of the produce cleared through the harbor comes from agricultural districts and that iould have something to say about determining the harbor policies, If the city gets the harbor, this power will be relinguishod. received legislative a day of debate They Again the city attention when, after the Assembly approved a bill, 59: to 16, which gives the California Toll Bricze Authority permissive power to provide through acquisition or construction, transportation facilities to and over the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge and transportation facilities connectiny within an area of 50 miles from either end of the bridge. This action sanctions: the Authority’s efforts to negotiate for a $15,000,000 lozn from the RFC to: fihance the work. Three days after the Florida state Senate had passed an anti-chain store bill, the Califorina Assembly passed the Cronin-McMurray bill, placing a tax of $500 on each store of companies having over ten on their chain. This measure is causing one of the major battles at Sacramento, many legislators believing it an outrage to private business to place such heavy taxes on the chain systems. It is certain that such a bill will cripple the chains so that it will be unprofitable for them to operate in this state. The chains declared that Califorina farmers would suffer by losing one of the their largest purchasers if the law is passed. Backers of the measure savy that if the chains go, that other privately-owned stores will take, their place. Building and loan fiascos are over in California. At least this is what backers: of the bill regulating California building and loan associations claim. The bill has passed both houses and awaits the pen of Merriam. It provides for the rehabilitation: of organizations in financial distress. Some have criticized the measure as not sufficiebtly protecting depositors, but all agree it i a great improvement over existing laws covering the building and ioan business: interests !
