Tax bill aiding college]
construction needs 01
United Press International
AUSTIN — Backers of a prop
osed constitutional amendment
providing a three cent per $100
valuation state property tax to sup
port state college construction
need three more votes to submit it
to voters.
And they are conceding they
face an uphill battle after Sunday’s
18-12 tentative approval of the
measure. A two-thirds majority
vote in each house is necessary to
submit proposed constitutional
amendments to Texas voters.
Senators debated the amend
ment as part of their two-hour de
bate Sunday on the complex state
property tax issue. At the end of
the debate, senators still were in
disagreement on whether the
proposal amounts to a tax increase
or tax decrease.
The Texas Constitution cur
rently provides for a 10-cent per
$100 valuation state property tax
to support construction at state
colleges and universities, but the
Legislature in 1979 reduced the
assessment ratio to almost zero
and lowered the tax to the point it
is not practical to collect.
But Midwestern University
filed suit challenging the 1979
legislative action and if the school
wins, the 10-cent tax rate would
be restored with market value
assessments.
Sunday the Senate rejected, 18-
11, an attempt by Sen, ||

El Paso truck
fulfills promist
United Pres* International
DALLAS — An El Paso trucker
is elated at setting a world record
for endurance running and having
at last fulfilled a promise made to a
dying friend years ago.
“Who needs an airplane now —
I’ve got a pair of good shoes,
Richard Hackney said.
The 27-year-old truck driver
from El Paso arrived in Dallas at
about 1 p.m. Sunday at the end of
a 629-mile marathon run that be
gan a week ago Monday in his
hometown. The home stretch be
gan in Fort Worth.
Hackney undertook the ordeal
because he had promised his
friend, who succumbed to epilep
sy, that one day he would do
something to help other patients
of the crippling disease of the ner
vous system.
The Epilepsy Association of
Texas sponsored the event to help
Hackney collect pledges and
donations along the way.
