world beat Conference panel set to ‘fine-tune’ tax bill proposal SALEM ( VP) - Legislative maneuver ing over thj sales tax package appeared to move onto a fast track Wednesday, when the House of Representatives sent the proposal to a House and Senate negotiating committee headed by the Legislature’s top leaders. Gov. Vic Atiyeh is to appear before the negotiating committee on Thursday to urge it to ease the school spending limit the Senate put into the plan. The school spending restriction ap parently is the last major obstacle to completing legislative action on the ballot measure that asks voters to enact a 5 percent sales tax. If it clears the Legislature, the measure will go to the voters at a special election later this year. The date had been set as Sept. 17, but now there is talk of moving the election to early October. Senate President John Kitzhaber, D Roseburg, and House Speaker Vera Katz, D-Portland, on Wednesday appointed themselves to the negotiating committee. Other members are Sens. Rod Monroe, D-Portland, and Cub Houck, R-Salem; and Reps. Tom Throop, D-Bend, and Mary Burrows, R-Eugene. The leaders said if a quick agreement can be reached, the Legislature could wind up work by Friday on the top issue of the 1985 session. That would be 96 days after the session convened in January. However, the influential education lobby is distressed about the school spending ceiling adopted by the Senate. The House-passed version of the tax plan would allow school property tax bases to rise by 6 percent a year without voter approval. The Senate cut the automatic growth limit to 3 percent. 1^0 peer Preweq Dy Miner Brewing company, witwaunre wi OVQ! HM) YEARS AGO A CLEAR COMMITMENT L To Quality To Purity To America.
