Briscoe Cool
The idea of a special ses-
sion to curb utilities bills
left Gov. Dolph Briscoe cool,
in spite of support from
House Speaker Bill Clayton
and other lawmakers.
Briscoe said ideas of
House committees (includ-
ing sales tax reductions and
tax rebates) are "nothing
basically new." He added he
is not convinced they would
substantially decrease bills
or that they could be passed
quickly by the legislature.
Meanwhile, Rep. Lane
Denton of Waco came up
with 11 recommendations
which he claimed could re-
duce gas and electricbills 25
per cent if enacted. Denton
proposed a ceiling on the
wellhead price of natural
gas, further restictions on
utility companies and tax
adjustments or elimination.
He also recommended
election of Railroad Com-
mission members from six
geographic districts

cutive Committee head
Other liberals are consid-
ering the race which will be

cratic convention Sep-
tember 18 in Fort Worth.
