LANSING, March b - (A -
The Legislature moved on many
fronts today to bring az show.
down on the complex twin Is
sues of tax law revision and
state aid to financially distressed
local governmental units.
Identical bills were submitted
to the house and senate in be-
half Of organized city and vii
lage officials seeking to return
sixth of all state sales tax
collections to local government.
Senator George N. Higgins,
Ferndale republican, introduced
bill suggested by Governor
Kelly-but not bearing the label
of an administration bill-to inn
pose a 10 per cent war tax on
the sale of liquor, in addition to
Higgins prior plan to require
that the 3 per cent state sales
tax be collected on liquor sales.
Senator James T. Milliken,
chairman of the senate taxation
committee, called a hearing for
today to determine how far the
committee intended t ogo in
fighting for a revision Of the
much-criticized state intangible
tax.
Rep. Walter G. Herrick, chair
man of the house general taxa
ton committee, said his group
would release to the House floor
today a bill proposing that local
governmental units be empower
ed to levy excise taxes.
The House received an already
Senate-approved bill calling for
State reimbursement of local
government for revenue losses
caused by homestead property
tax exemptions accorded to war
veterans.
George w. Walsh, Mayor of
Grand Rapids, lined up sponsors
for the bill seeking to return
sales taxes to local units. He de-
scribed it as a compromise bill,
and said its terms call for a re-
turn of a sixth of the tax to the
county In which 1t was collected.
City, village and county govern
ments then would divide the
sum returned under a population
formula.
