REDISTRICTING — A Sen-
ale Congressional Bedistrictlrg
Bill would save all incumbent
congressmen the agony of hav-
ing te nun against a colleague.
But the House Judicial .Districts
Committee has drawn differ-
ent lines- So this issue must go
to conference committee for an
llth hour compromise. State
House of Representatives dis-
tricts also must be redrawn
But the Senate has little inter-
est in thgt. Judicial redistrict-
ing appears to be impossibly
snarled once more.
SCHOOL TEACHER PAY -
Both houses agree there must
be a raise. Major problem is to
determine the amount.
Although revenue in sight
from the Comptroller’s last of
ficial estimate won’t cover the
budgets drawn by either house,
plus a teacher pay raise of the
magnitude sought, legislative
leader* still insist adjustments
wil make the money possible
without a tax bill.
