AUSTIN.—Texana will face ai
$192,900,000 new tax bill before
the 00th Legislature get*
through with Its work next year,
Legislative Budget Board staff
predicts.
Gov. John Connallv a
Speaker Ben Barnes contend the
Board's figure Is far too high.
Barnes says the estimate is
"wrong by 190,000,000."
Lt. Gov. Preston Smith, on
the other hand, feels the staff
not only is within the ball park
but Is actually conservative.
"I would not be surprised to
see the new revenue need soar
to over *200,000,000 by the mid-
dle of next year," says Smith.
Connolly made clear he will
not call lawmakers Into special
session to appropriate funds
for the second half of the bl
ennium and pass a tax biil until
next year. He refused to state
what date he has in mind, al-
though speculation persists that
there will be no tax session until
after the June primary elec-
tions.
At the first budget board
meeting since the Legislature
adjourned last spring, staff
members predicted the present
general fund spending level will
jump from $452,800,000 to $470,-
300,000 next fiscal year.
Staff projections see need for
a $6,000,000 Increase in funds
for health, hospitals, special
schools and youth council facili-
ties; a $5,600,000 cut in execu
tive and administrative agency
spending; $15,800,000 for educa-
tion; and $1,000,000 more for the
Legislature.
Smith Announces
Pour days after Governor Con-
naliy returned from an African
hunting safari, Lieutenant Gov-
ernor Smith told him of his
plans to run for governor. He
asked, but did not get, Connal
ly's pledge of support.
Smith then released his offl
clal announcement, which con-
tained a criticism of the Con
nally fiscal policies and com
ilained of too much power cen-
alized in the governor's of-
fice.
Connally said he will decide
whether to run again himself or
not after swapping talk with
Texana in all areas and figur-
ing out "what ia in the best in
terest8 of the people and the
state." As for supporting Smith
he commented: "You are not
ever very enthusiastic about
supporting anybody who an-
nounces against you."
fyeaker Barnes told voters In
his home district (Brown, Cole
man, Comanche and Runnels
Counties) that he probably is
going to run for lieutenant gov-
ernor, although he might still
be a candidate for governor if
Conally retires. The speaker
will not make a formal an-
nouncement before next month.
Oil Output Cut
Railroad Commission ordered
a big whack in the Texas oil
production allowable for Sep-
tember.
Slacking off of Mid-East ten-
sions will mean more oil than
Texas can use, the Commission
said. Rs order reduced the 54
percent of potential allowable
factor to 48.7 percent. Net ef-
fect is that production was at
old high figure for first week
of the month and will be 44.1
percent for the remaining 23
days.
Cut is about 180,500 barrels a
day or S,415,000 barrels for St
tember. Scaled-down allowal;
will amount to 3,133,500 barrels
a day.
Draft Quota Cut
Texas draft boards are being
called on to provide 977 men
for induction in October. This
compares with quotas of i,iw
tor September and 1,421 for
August Quotas tor July and
June were 974 and 97S.
The 156 hoards are scheduled
to send 4,000 tor pre-induction
mental and physical examina-
tions during October, according
to Col. Morris S. Schwartx, state
selective service director. The
same number waa forwarded
for pre-induction exams in Sep-
tember.
Quota ia the state's share at a
national call for 17,000 men for
the Army hi October.
State Job* Increasing
Texas industrial employment
growth has bein ahead of the
,atr A t K>M . i
nation-wide figure for the last
five years, U. S. Department
'otf-larm employment In-
creased 21.7 percent In Texas
while the national increase was
18.2 percent.
Only Texas and California
among the six biggest industrial
states remain above the nation-
al average. New York, Illinois,
Ohio and Pennsylvania have
fallen below.
It's the Law
lit
Texas
(American Bar Association)
Short Cut to Social Security
To save money, aging bachlor
Fred moved Into a motel owned
by his sister. In return for a
free room, he did maintenance
work around the premises,
One day his sister had an in-
spiration: why not start paying
him wages, so that—as an "em
ployee"—he could qualify for
federal old age benefits when
he reached the age of 65? Ac
cordlngly, she put Fred on her
payroll.
But a few years later, when
he applied for benefits, he was
turned down In a court test
the judge ruled that Fred hod
not really been an employee at
all, because the work he was
paid for was the same work he
had done before for nothing,
To create rights under the
federal social security law,
there must be a genuine em
pioyment relationship. And the
government may be skeptical If
the socalled employee is a
close relative of the so-called
employer.
In tact, the law flatly ex
dudes employment between
man and wife or (with certain
exceptions) between parent and
child. The Idea, of course, is
to prevent families from setting
up fake "jobs" as a short cut
to rewards of social security.
Except in these husband-wife
and parent-child situations, the
law will weigh the facts of the
individual case to see whether
true employment is shown. For
example;
A divorced man, awarded
custody of his little girl, left her
with his sister in another city.
For a monthly fee the sister,
carrying out his Instructions,
took full charge of the child's
upbringing.
Some years later, the sister
put In a claim for old age bene-
fits on the basis of her prior
"employment." And a court up-
held her claim. The judge point-
ed out that, even though the
employment was between close
relatives, nevertheless it was a
bona fide arrangement for a
bona fide reason.
Suppose the person Is hired
not by an individual relative,
but by a corporation controlled
by a relative. If this is simply
a trick to get around the law, It
wont's work.
Thus, benefits were denied to
a man who had been hired by
hl$ son's corporation, set up for
just this purpose. The court
said the law lifts the "corporate
veil" to see If an evasion of law
Is hidden behind it.

Q—1 was In service from Oc-

I plan to purchase a home on
a Gt loan. I have heard some
thing of a funding fee. What ia
this?
A—This applies only to vet-
erans who have eligibility for
GI loans arising out of military
service performed since Jan.
81, 1955. These veterans must
pay a fee of one-half of one per-
cent of the amount of the loan
to the lender. The lender then
submits It to the VA. Since you
had service during the Korean
Conflict period, you will not be
required to pay this fee.
Q--My husband, a World War
II veteran, died recently. 1 ap-
plied for the proceeds of his
Administration that I wa#
the beneficiary. 1 need tills

A—It may be. VA must pay
the proceeds of NSLl policies
to the beneficiary last designed
ed by the insured, even when
this results In an obvious fat-
equity. It is sad but true that
many veterans neglect to fcafe
this beneficiary designation tip
to date. In your case tb« "

ficiary recognizes the unfairness
and can be persuaded to assign
