The Canny Man
One of the world’s great writ-
era on economics was, nat-
urally, a Scotsman. If you be-
long to a canny race,like the
Scots, you know all about econ-
omy. v
He was Adam Smith, bom in
the town of Kirkcaldy in the
county of Fife 200 years ago. He
wrote a book called “The
Wealth of Nations,” which has
been translated into almost
every language in the world.

AUSTIN—Nine mayors from Texas coastal towns made
a trip to Washington to try and revive Seadock, the pro-
posed $700 million Texas offshore terminal facility.
But major oil companies, part of the consortium which
planned the facility 26 miles off Freeport to unload
foreign oil, said there is little hope.
The companies claimed the federal government attached
too stringent terms to licensing and made their sizable
investment unsound. Gulf, Mobil and Exxon, which pledged
52 per cent of Seadock’s financing, pulled out.
Advocates of the superfort believe it can save $1 a
barrel on imported oil costs, permitting transportation
of the oil in supertankers which are too large for most
existing ports.
Meanwhile, Gov. Dolph Briscoe has signed into law
legislation which would permit the state to finance an
offshore terminal if Seadock folds as expected.
The bill provides for issue of revenue bonds through
a deepwater port authority to build the facility. Revenue
would come from users of the terminal, and the state’s
credit would not be obligated.
The legislation also insures that federal licensing re-
quirements must impose no financial liability (such as
' for oil spills) on the state.
Tax Expanding
Revenue from 10 state occupation taxes has grown 133
per cent in the last five years—to a total of nearly $1
billion in 1976.
Bullock said oil and gas production taxes led the big
increase, leaping from $305.2 million in 1972 to $793.7
million last year.
Oil and gas production taxes account for 80 per cent
of all occupation' tax revenue in Texas. Gas production
taxes jumped 219 per cent and oil taxes 125 per cent
during the five year period.
Bullock's monthly report for July showed May state
revenues totalled $803.8 million, bringing total receipts
for the first nine months of fiscal 1977 to $5.2 billion, a
12 per cent increase.
Sales tax collections, at $391.9 million, were 15 per cent
ahead of 1976 levels.
State spending during May totalled $587.8 million. Total
expenditures for fiscal 1977 are $5.06 billion, a three per
cent increase. A cash balance of $1.5 billion was on hand
at the end of May. ,

Home addresses and social security numbers of state,
city and county employees must be made available on de-
mand (with a few exceptions), Att. Gen. John Hill held.
In other recent opinions, Hill concluded:
Whether a fee paid to an employment agency is a re-
ward to secure employment depends on whether .the
agency plays any role in a department’s selecting new
officers.
Bids on state employees uniform, group insurance do not
have to be disclosed prior to public hearing at which the
contract is awarded.
Short Snorts
Judge Charles W. Barrow has taken the oath of office
to succeed Don Yarbrough on the State Supreme Court.
Yarbrough apparently will make his home in Austin.
Potentially significant uranium reserves have been
found along the Texas coast from the Rio Grande Valley
to the Sabine.
Mourning dove season is Sept. 1-Oct.- 30 in the north
zone, Sept. 24-Nov. 6 and Dec. 31-Jan. 15 in the south
zone and Sept. 3-4 and 10-11 along the Rio Grande. The
whitewing season is the same in the Rio Grande area.
