Legislative Summary
(Continued from Page 2)‘
uniavorable calendar, initiated on
Friday and .postpo'cd to Tuesday,
is not conceded much chance of
success. The final determination
in the House will probably decide
the fate of a liquor refrendum in
the 1951 General Assembly, de
spite the 2 referendum bills still
to be acted on in the Senate. As
watchdog of the public morals the
House committee has also received
2 other bills (HB 453 and HB1
469> aimed at outlawing pari-mu- {
luel betting at the Morehead City I
and Currituck dog tracks or any- ■
where else in the state. One of
these bills would also ban bingo

to the winners, .

State Taxation
The finance committees are still
busy with proposed amendments
to the Revenue Bill. They have
approved a measure to reduce the
gross premium receipt tax on do
mestic companies writing work
men’s compensation insurance
in order to give them the same
favored position enjoyed by other
local insurance companies. A
Revenue Department plan to in
crease the percentage of intan
gibles tax retained for admin
istrative purposes met with com
mittee disapproval, as did a pro
posal to cut from 3 to 2 years the
time merchants must keep sales
tax records. Rep. Umstead and
others are seeking to raise spme
$1 Vi million annually by upping
wholesale sales tax rates from
wholesale sales tax rates from 1 /
20 to 1/5 of 1%. These repre
sentatives have also proposed a
plan to raise the maximum sales
tax on a single article from $15
to $30- -a proposition on which
a hearing has been called for
March 8. Mr. Umstead may with
draw his demand for a 3% gross
receipts tax on movie houses

__il i .Q-,
Road* and Streets
With ihe fourth public hearing
on the Powell city street bill set
for Tuesday before the House ap
propriations committee, Anal ac
tion on this controversial measure
earmarking the highway funds for
municipal streets without impos
ing new taxes cannot occur be
fore Wednesday at the earliest.
Despite stated opposition from the'
Highway Commission and the pos
sibility of still jnpre amendments,
most observers feel the bill has
passed, its most strendous test and
will pass the House substantially
in Its Senate-approved form. A
nother controversial bill, this one
reducing truck weight limits to
pre-1949 levels, Was scheduled for
public hearing on Thursday but
that hearing has been postponed
until Tuesday. Meanwhile, engi
neers supervising the Maryland
truck weight experiment announc
ed that their findings are incon
clusive and suggested that each
state dran^ its own conclusions as
to what the tests established. To
assure compliance with whatever
weight limits may be set, SB 273
was introduced to require the
Highway Department to erect per
manent weighing stations through
out the state and to take over
from the Motor Vehicles Depart
ment the reaponst>ility for en
forcing truck weight limits. A
Senate bill calling for the estab
lishment of a commission to build
toll roads has been reported favor
ably and set for debate next
Thursday!
