Texas voters ordered legisla
tive revision of the state consti-
tion but rejected pay hikes for
legislators and two top office
holders.
Although inconclusive in some
cases, it appeared at a late hour
that Texans approved 11 or 14
proposed changes in their 96-
year-old constitution.
And the most sweeping was
controversial Amendment No. 4,
calling for the Legislature to pro
vide an entirely new govern
mental blueprint.
The present patchwork consti
tution was adopted in 1876, a
period of citizen unrest after a
decade of carpetbag government.
Voters turned thumbs down on
salary increases for legislators,
the lieutenant governor and the
speaker of the Texas House.
In something of a surprise,
voters indicated they prefer four-
year terms for their governor
and many other statewide offi
cials, who now serve for two
years.
Voters were less enthusiastic
about a dual office holding
amendment, No. 12, but it was
winning narrow approval as the
count continued.

1. Legislators’ pay hikes: For
502,730, Against 549,040.
2. Lamar hospital district: For
589,706, Against 333,727.
