Austin — In the stormiest
week of the 59th Legislature,
House and Senate deadlocked
over the entwined issues of
longer terms of office and addi-
tion of eight more senatorial
districts.
Whatever the outcome, many
feared resulting hard feelings
from the feud would so dent
harmony that finishing up
necessary business at hand
without a special session would
be difficult indeed.
Big problem began
some representatives, as the
price of going along with a con-
stitutional amendment to give
statewide officials four-year
terms, demanded the same con-
sideration.
House tacked onto a Senate
proposal to increase member1
ship of the upper house from 81
to 39 (and increase senatorial
terms to six years) a provision
for four-year terms for repre-
sentatives, too.
Senate had decided its pet
proposed constitutional amend-
ment to enlarge membership to
39 should be submitted to an
election on Aug. 7 without the
controversial term attachment.
House stripped a Senate com-
when Promise calling for a Novem-
ber election on lengthened
terms for both houses (as a
separate proposal) of the six-
year senatorial term provision.
Senate retaliated by threat-
ening to block the House ver-

Land owner would pay taxes
based on the presumably lower
agricultural valuation. How
w.
ever, If he sold the land, he’d
have to pay the difference be-
tween the two values for the
three previous years.
Valuation would affect all
taxes — city, county, state and
school district.
TAXES TALKED - Top-
level lawmakers are specula-
ting on possibility of o two-
cents - a - pack cigarette tax
boost and extension of the two
percent sales tax levy to all al-
coholic beverages (now ex-
empt).
Increased spending — includ-
ing teacher pay raises and med
care costs—may make as much
as $100,000,000 in new taxation
necessary, some believe.
About $50,000,000. could be
raised from the cigarette tax
boost and $21,000,000 from
placing the retail sales levy on

FARM LAND TAX DEF
FERAL — Resolution authoriz-
ing a constitutional amendment
to give special tax considera-
tion to farm land needs six
more House votes for passage.
Constitutional amendments
require 100 votes for pas-
sage, but the resolution’s
sponsors, Rep. Bill Dungan of
McKinney, Rep. Alonzo Jami-
son of Denton and Rep. Wayne
Connally of Floresviile, could
muster only 96.
If passed by the Legislature
and approved by voters, the
amendment would require tax
assessor - collectors to put two
values for agricultural land on
tax rolls—the valuation based

purposes and the non-agricul-

Bill by Reps. Emmett Lack of
Kountze and Will Smith of
Beaumont to create a State
Commission for Indian Af-
fairs to run the reservation re-
ceived approval of House Com
mittee on State Hospitals and
Special Schools.
Smith said the commission
would help the Indian Tribal
council achieve self-sufficiency
for its 550 people, largely
through tourism.
More than 400,000 people
would visit the reservation
each year if it is properly de-
veloped, predicted Supervisor

plans to provide a lake, amphi-
theater, museums and an arts
and crafts shop.

ment program.
AO OPINIONS — Atty. Gen.
Waggoner Carr has held that
the bill authorizing refund to
city transit companies of three-
fourths of their state gasoline
payments is unconstitutional.
In other opinions, Carr ruled
that:
It’s illegal for a motor hotel
to give free beer or mixe,d
drinks to guests or to transport
liquor into dry areas.

ties over 500,000 population can

topsies in absence of official
medical examiner.

What parent wouldn’t insure
his child good health for life
. if he could?
Although no parent can guar-
antee his child good health al-
ways, a parent plays an im
portant role in the health of a
child.
A parent can teach his child
the basic principles of good
health. Certain fundamentals,
learned early and continued
through life, can do a great deal
towards promoting the health
of the child.
Good health can become a
habit. And this is where the
parent comes in: teaching his
child good health habits early
in life.
A habit is an action you've
done so often you don’t even
think about it, you just do it.
Help your child develop good
health habits.
Hand washing is a funda-
mental in disease prevention.
Teach your child to wash his
hands after he visits the toilet.
Teach him to wash his hands
taking before he eats.
Little hands—or big ones for
that matter — go many places.
They may carry out the gar-
bage, handle a fly-swatter, or
touch many potential germ
sources.

In recent testing contjta
by Consumers R^e
the non-profit testing
tion in Washington, N. J.,
suits showed i that electric
blankets should never be dry
cleaned or machine washed
no matter what claims
manufacturer might make
the contrary.
Study results pointed out
jfare*r|that dry cleaning fluids might
attack the insulation that cov-
ers the wiring, and the tumbling
action of a washing machine
can cause a break in the wiring
ofjthat runs through the blanket
Damage could also result
from any twisting or squeezing,
which led the researchers andj
engineers to conclude that
electric blankets should be
washed only when absolutely
necessary — and then only by'
hand.
In hand washing, the re-
searchers caution against any
wringing action and recoin
mend water be removed by
gently squeezing the fabric in
the direction the wires rim.

harm.
Teach your child to make
hand washing a habit.
Tooth brushing after meals is
important to good dental
health. Otherwise, bits of food
lodge on and between teeth al-
lowing bacteria to grow and
eventually cause decay. Teach
your child to rinse his mouth
with water if he can’t brush his
teeth right after eatoing.
A dally bath and clean cloth-
es are important, too. Hair
should be washed often, and
combed with your own comb.
Head lice are no respectors of
persons and can easily travel
from person to person on a
“borrowed comb.”
Borrowing towels, lipstick, or
sharing food or drinking glass-
es is a good way to borrow
trouble — or other people’s
germs.
True, you may neglect to
wash your hands one time, or
you may skip a bath one day.
But remember to teach your
children the good health habit.
