Cigarette, Income Boosts
Before Senate Group
SACRAMENTO fl'PP- A fast
administration power play today
pushed Gov. Edmund G. Brown's
cigarette and income tax bills
into position for final passage.
The tax boosts, stalled in a
subcommittee Monday, were be
fore the Senate Finance Commit
tee for action today.
Sen. George Miller (D-Martinez).
an administration leader, held an
unannounced meeting of the sub
committee Wednesday night. The
bills were approved after little
discussion.
Chairman Sen. James J. Mc
Bride (D-Ventura), predicted his
Finance Committee would approve
the taxes today, sending them to
the Senate for final dehale.
The two tax bills would bring
in 131 million dollars a year in
new income.
One calls for a three-cent a
pack tax on cigarettes and cigar
illos at a cost of 60 million dollars
a year of smokers.
The other would cost state in
come tax payers 71 million dol
lars a year, most of it from those
making more than $25,000 a year.
The average family of four earn
ing less than 510,500 a year would
pay a little less in income taxes
and single persons and couples in
that earning bracket would pay
a little more.
Vote Count Speedup Bill
Amended By Ballet Group
SACRAMENTO (UPD A bill
designed to speed up California's
tlow vole count following state
wide elections was amended
Wednesday to make sure that it
would acconiplish the job for
which it was intended.
The measure was amended by
the Assembly Elections Commit
tee which will decide next week
Gasoline War
Restrain Set
SACRAMENTO (UPD Legisla
tion designed to crack ' down on
gasoline price wars by outlawing
rebates for under the table pay
ments designed to stifle competi
tion has been approved by the As
sembly Judiciary Committee.
The bill by Assemblyman Bruce
F. Allen (R-Los Gatos) would
tighten state law against rebates
which are intended to create a
monopoly.
A companion bill, also by Allen,
which would permit persons penal
ized by unfair competition to sue
for three times the actual dam
ages also was approved by the
committee.
However, four measures which
would have made it illegal for dis
tributors to discriminate against
retailers on the basis of locality
and would have stiffened other
sections of the unfair practices
act were sent to an interim com
mittee at Allen's request.
Air Hearing j
Continuing
LOS ANGELES (UPD Repre
sentatives of San Diego, Calif.,
and Long Beach, Calif., will testi
ly today before a Civil Aeronaut
ics Board examiner on the es
tablishment of a one-carrier air
service linking key cities from
California, the Gulf States and
Florida.
Orrin King, city manager of
Downey, threw his city's supporl
behind that of San Francisco and
Los Angeles in the opening ses
sion of the hearings Wednesday by
favoring the proposed single ser
vice. But, he said, businessmen of his
community favored placing Long
Beach airport on the route be
cause "we can reach this airport
in 20 minutes as opposed to 40 to
60 minutes to reach Los Angeles
International Airport.
Mayor George Christopher of
San rrancisco, in speaking 11
support of the new route, said
"San Francisco, to retain its his
torical position as a leading gate-
;iy to the Pacilic and to main-
lain its economic competitive pos
ition with other West Coast com
munities must receive adequate
air carrier service.
It was claimed that the route
across the southern tier of states
presently is serviced by three sep
arate airlines in an interchange
system which causes delay in
traveling the full distance.
Stephen D. Gavin, chief assist
ant of Los Angeles Mayor Norris
Poufcon, read a statement by the
mayor calling the hearings the
"iiwst important proceeding di
rcctly affecting the City of Los
Angeles which has been or will
be held in a long time.
Nine airlines are competing to
service the proposed route.
Father And Son
Electrocuted
ROCKINGHAM, N.C. (AP) A
father and his son, working side
by side on a power line project
near here, were electrocuted Mon
day.
The victims were Oscar Morris
and his son. J. L. Morris of Che
raw, S C. The younger Morris had
been working with his father only
two weeks.
They were part of a crew string
ing a new line between here and
nearby Hamlet. Authorities said
the dead line the men were pull
ing into place slipped, whiplashed
and touched a live wire on an
other pole.
Johnny Jackson ol KocKingnam.
a fellow worker, was burned
slightly trying to help the men.
McBride, long an opponent of
new or higher taxes, conceded his
attempt to halt the tax measures
had failed.
Sen. John F. McCarthy (R-San
Rafael', however, continued the
light against taxes. He said yes
terday there still was a possibility
he could muster yotes to hold the
cigarette and income tax meas
ures in committee.
Miller said other measures of
the administration's 256 million
dollar tax program probably will
be held in the Finance Committee
until the budget is approved. Some
of them still are in the Assembly,
where all of them originated.
Assemblyman Thomas J. Mac-
