♦•WILSON
(Continued From Page One)
Law enforcement, and the
need for a Police Academy
to train police Is getting more
attention of the lawmakers.
In the future, the state must
pass water and air pollution
laws. Unless Texas does, the
Federal Government will,
Texas also needs a mini-
mum wage of at least $1.25,
the Senator said. He point-
ed out that unless Texas did
pass an acceptable minimum
wage, the Federal Govern-
ment will enlarge people cov-
ered under the federal pro-
gram.
The lawmaker said he
would favor increasing terras
of Governor, Lt. Governor
and Attorney General to four
years. A man is running al-
most a'l the time, and doesn't
have the time to do his Job,
the speaker said.
On the local level, Sena-
tor Wilson said he hoped to
see more funds alloted to
expand and improve Rusk St-
ate Hospita'. Also, he want-
ed more funds for Jim Hogg
Park and the Luflcln State
School.
Seventy five cents of the
tax dollar goes for educa-
tion, and more will be need-
ed.
To pay for the expected
needs, Senator Wilson said
he favored enlarging the sa-
les tax to Include advertis-
ing, tobacco, beer, whiskey
and other Items, now exempt.
He will oppose any state In-
come tax,
