MARY#LY YOURS by MARY ODOM These past two weeks have been discouraging. That two - headed monster, automobile liability insurance, which has been waiting in the wings, is moving to center stage in the legislative show. I say two - headed because neither the insurance industry nor the public in general are very happy with the existing laws, but for different reasons. The Joint House and Senate Committees have been meeting three times a week. I don't feel particularly enlightened by the "facts" that are presented to us. In listening to the debate, 1 am confident I am not alone in being confused. We really should have started on this problem they day the Ligislature convened. To try to unravel so complex an issue this late seems unwise if not downright dangerous. There were three very tense meetings of the Finance committee in which we voted to delay action on the bill seeking repeal of the soft drink tax until June 24. I voted with the majority. With the appropriations committee meeting morning and afternoon trying to whittle $700 million requests to match income, it doesn't seem very logical to cut revenue now. I also voted to delay action on the Mohn bill concerning the distribution of ABC profits. This bill would have cut state revenue $18 million. Another bill that dipped into the treasury to the tune of S80.000 annually sailed through the House this week. This wolf wearing patriotic clothing would give military retirees a $3000 income tax exemption. The proponents of the bill claim it will attract many retirees with money to spend in North Carolina. While I welcome all people of good will to North Carolina, I object to "paying" them to come just as 1 object to revenue bonds being offered to industry. I also have some doubts that this $3000 tax break will set off a march to North Carolina. The retiree bill was presented as equalizing benefits offered to state employees and civil service workers. I find (his difficult to digest. Most retirees 1 know have considerably higher incomes at earlier ages reinforced with such choicc benefits as medical services (worth a fortune) and privileges of the Post Exchanges. In my opinion this bill is pure political expediency. To vote against it, as I did, made me seem plain un-American. 1 have great respect for those who serve in the armed forces. I emphatically deny that such service, with the exception of combat duty, is greater than that of highway crews, school bus mechanics, secretaries, or any other state employee, all of whom contribute from their incomes toward retirement. The argument that they are separated from their families seems weak in the light of the fact that they knew perfectly well they were not likely to be stationed two blocks from Mama and the good wife when they signed up. Another bill to come before Finance next week conccrns the taxation of banks "as other corporations". I intend to support it without enthusiasm. Banks support it becausc it will mean that ULTIMATELY they will pay lower taxes. County commissioners support it because it means MORE revenue for them. It has the added attraction of providing additional STATE revenue in a lean period because of a timing feature. It all sounds dreadfully egalitarian to tax banks "as other corporations." Lacking sufficcnt confidence in newly acquired knowledge in this to press the point, I shall vote aye ai so many constituents have suggested I should. I can't help but wonder what the core of this apple is going to reveal. An effort to revise the laws concerning driving and drinking was sidetracked Thursday. McNeill Smith of Guilford offered a very good bill to lower legal intoxication on the breathalyzer to .05. Conviction of driving with a rating of .OS to .10 would not mean revocation of license but a fine and or jail sentence. By vote of 50 - 49 it was referred to Judiciary i committee, which amounts to the death penally. The two Judiciary committees are composed entirely of lawyers. By all odds they are the most powerful In the House. In my own mind I label J-l as the bad guys and J-ll as the good guys, which isn't entirely fair because there are SOME good guys on J-l. My friendliest enemy on J-l is Clarence Leatherman of Lincolnton. Clarence guards Chapter 20 (motor vehicles) of the General Statues as though he wrote it and tells me to leave it alone. I always reply that I might go along if HE would keep away from Chapter 115 (school laws) and leave THAT to me. In any cue a good bill is in the hands of the enemy.
