_THE NEVADA CITY NUGGET _
(By WSU Service)
Everyvhody had his innings at Sacramento last week, sven the clowns in
the circus. They put on a great show
for the politicos, who locked up the
Capitol one afternoon to see the laughlobbyists in action.
However, the most important
as far as Califortiia is concerned,
place under the ‘Capitol dome. The
Legislature put in its busiest week,
making major edvances along. all
fronts. The Joint Budget Steering Committee completed its hudget-balancing
plan, conferring with Governor Merriam on its findings and was warned
not to pare taxes down too much. The,
group had reduced the proposed emergency fund by $1.000,060.
“Instead of a decrease

He added that if the emergency fund

will bring the state increased revenue
from taxes.
So far the steering committee has

an amendment to a bill by Senator Will
Sharkey. One of the bill’s provisions is
to place the burden of proof on the
defendant instead of the prosecutor in
speed cases. The measure was -voted
eut of committee with a do-pass tag.
Anothe journalist has been added to
the long list connected with the state
government. He,is A. R. O’Brien,

Under this bill, all-inclusive charges .

said that ~3%4 perm cent per month on.

The assembly unemployment com.
mittee has been busy, passing out three
major bills with do-pass recommendations, along with many less important
measures. The basic measure conforms .
to the national security program and
provides for “disemployment” benefits
up to $15 weekly, beginning in, 1937
Contributions for this insurance would
include: employes paying 1 per cent
on payrolls in 1936, 2 per cent in 1957
and 3 per cent in 1938 and thereafter
Employers contributions would be 1,
per cent. .
A second bill would) place unem.

Budzet Balance Proratse
A word more on state iinances. Thet
will be balanced is certain. .
The work of the Joint Legis ative Tax
Committee in culling out the three to .
twelve bills on every tax issue is going
to make this possible.
State Bontoier Ray L. Riley has i
been having alittle tax tiff all of his
own. A real estate association leader
criticized him for advocating an ad
valorem levy, Claiming that.real estate .
could not bear any greater burden
when it came to taxes. Whereupon
some interesting noints were brought
out by the State Controller:
the budget
$40,000,000. since the-first act of the
tiley-Stewart tax plan went into effect.
School costs have been transferred
from counties to the state and financed
by the sales tax.
The return of privately owned public utilities from state to county tax
rolls as the second act under the RileyStewart tax plan will further decrease
real estate taxes $35,009,000.
Further, say a small property owne?t
paid $80 in real estate tax. The sales
tax reduced his property tax by 20 per
however, ti cen*, or to $64.. Since, he
average family pays at least $25. pet
year in sales tax, this levy, although
reducing his property tax $16, has cos!
him $25. The property owner has had
one “put over on him” by this switch,
says Riley.
What Riley was driving et was the
danger of edding excise taxcs,.such as
the real-estate association favors in
lieu of an ad valorem in the shape of a
smell property levy.
There are two rays of hope for the
taxpayer, however. One comes. from
Chairman C. C. Cottrell of the assembly ways and means committee. After
more than three -months oc budget
study, hé announces that he will disclose this week how the $47,000,000 in
“controllable”: budget items can be
sliced 20 per cent. In other words, a
saving of $10,000,000 can be made.
The second welcome: ray emanated
from. the committee room cf the tax
steering group. The budgeteers feel
that the bills for new taxes should be
considered as emergency bills. and
should: be enacted for only two vears
Of course the whole budget plan of
the commities is still on the fire. It
has yet to run the legislative gauntlet.
The plan has a very good chance of
passing, say observers. Both houses
have considerable respect for the
serine comnittee. The governor comfaented, “Iam very much pleased with
what has been done, and it scems you
are nearing daylight.”
State Police Favored
A constitutional amendiment
ing a new state police force has been
voted out of the assembly constitutional amendments committee, but
without a recommendation. Floor action can be expected this week. Practically all organizations in California
favor the bill, claiming that a state
police force is needed to handle organized crime. It is also pointed out that
the state is too large for ununified
golice hodies to* properly protect all
areas.
. The one ‘major group which has
. shown opposition is labor, claiming
.
the police will be used to stop strikes.
Further, they say it will be impossible
to raise the four-filihs majority neces
i gary to-enact the amendment.
. Another bill which has draw
of lobbyist fire the controve:
. Hays bill, putting regulation
trucks, except those in the cities, un
der jurisdiction of the State Railroad
Commission. The lower House has ap. proved the Senate-originatel measure,
60 to.17, without amendment.
