House Asks Hike
Bus, Truck Fee;
Would Cut Others

AUSTIN. Feb. "a Up What
changes the house committee on
revenue and taxation would recon-
mend on automobile resignation fees
were diyulged for the first time to-
day through a report OF a sub-com-
mittee increasing licenses on COM
mon carriers from Is 10 % per cent
and contemplating a 20 per cent de-
crease on privately owned vehicles
to be incorporated in a measure
which likely will be reported to-
night.
The hike in fees for trucks and
motor buses was contained in the
report OF a committee headed by
Representative Duvall Of Fort
Worth. submitted TO the revenue and
taxation group for consideration.
Duvall said the committee wrote its
bill after several conferences with
the state highway commission.
Representative Holder OF Laneas-
ter, leader in the move for decreased
fees for passenger ears. served no
tice on the committee that any cut
under fifty per cent would be SER
iously opposed on the floor.
Shortly before hearing the report
from Duvall. the committee voted
un~fsvorably on the Finn measure
placing a tax on lubricatirg oil.

put power development far down in
the list OF priorities in use Of water.
The west Texas bill is being re-
written in the house OF representa-
tIyes, but the redraft may prove as
acceptable TO the western country as
the original measures. Rep. Leonard
lillotson OF Sesly is rewriting the
water legislation for the house; and
members of the house say he is an
authority on the subject, and will be
guided by no local partizanshi2. His
measure will be subject 10 change
By the house.
Must Guard Interests
The senate has before IT Senator
Walter Z. Woodward's original bill
on water control, with a committee
recommendation that IL be enacted
into Law.
So that, regardless OF the wording
Of bills passed by either branch, the
only measure affecting water that
a be passed finally wall be one
that safeguards the interests Of the
middle and southern country, and
opens the way for the extension of
irrigation development in the west.
A safe policy law, legislative com
mittees were told, will bring about
more new irrigation projects. and
benefit more sections Of the state
than have built dams and reservoirs
IN all the years Of the past.
New District Bill
The priorities measure is but one
phase Of the water Legislation now
before the house and senate.
A fa~r-reaching bill 10 overcome
the confusion and uncertainty and
legal entanglements in the creation
of districts has been approved in
house committee for enactment. AT
present water control districts. water
improvement districts. and districts
Of varying legal scope and purpose
are possible. each under a different
section OF the Law.
The new bill re-defines the gen.
eral policy of the state in the ere
alton of districts. and brings all the
forms under one general type. In
the words Of Representative Tillot-
son, it gives the state again a def
mite policy" in respect TO the ere
alton Of the water districts.
The legislature has been busy,
since the famous San Saba water
decision was handed down BY third
civil appeals court, IN passing vail
dating acts by which it attempted
10 make salesble bonds of various
water districts. The new law will
replace the need for future validat-
ing acts, in providing a course,
eharted by the appellate decisions in
the water cases, that can be followed
in the creation Of districts and mar
keting Of securities. with assurance
Of legal safety.
