Two other recommendations
have not been acted on. They are
exempting medical expenses and
life insurance up to $250 a year
from income taxes, and referal to
the voters a building program
financed by surplus income taxes.
The Legislature undoubtedly
will refer some type of building
program but it is doubtful the
lawmakers will go for exempting
medical expenses and life insur
ance from income taxes.
The only item of the 10 major
recommendations that appears
