Mark White says his two new nominees to the Public Util ity Commission will make sure Texans get honest utility bills from now on. White kept one of his cam- promises by appointing a lousewife to the PUC, which lost two of itt three members Tuesday by resignation. Within four hours of the sur prise resignations by George Cowden and Tommie Gene Smith, White appointed El Paso housewife Peggy Rosson, 47, and former PUC member Alan Erwin, 38, of Houston to the panel. Rosson, who succeeds Smith, was appointed to a term that will expire Sept. 1, 1987. She has been a member of the Public Utility Regulatory Board in El Paso since 1978 and chairs the board. Erwin, a charter member of the commission from 1975 until 1979, replaced Cowden and will serve a term that ends Sept. 1, 1983. Both nominations must be confirmed by the Senate. White, who used the utility rate issue to help upset former Gov. Bill Clements in last fall’s gubernatorial campaign, had vowed to appoint a housewife to the PUC, which White has ac cused of being more concerned about utility companies than ratepayers. Earlier in the day, Cowden and Smith announced their res ignations effective March 1, saying they wanted to give White’s administration a chance to run the controversial utility regulatory agency. White called the resignations delightful and said he was pre pared to accept the resignation of the third PUC member, chair man H.M. Rollins. The governor told reporters that he telephoned Rollins Tuesday afternoon to ask if his resignation was in the mail. White said Rollins told him he would wait to see who the new PUC members were before he decided whether to quit. “I’d like to be batting 3-0 to day,” White said. “That would be fine. He (Rollins) has that opportunity (to resign) every day. He said it (resignation) wasn’t in the mail.” Commenting on the resigna tions of Cowden and Smith, White said, “There’s the old saying about the heat in the kitchen, and maybe that’s what happened.” Asked if he thought the new commissioners could lower util ity rates in Texas, White replied, “We’re going to have honest util ity bills from now on.” Cowden made the resigna tion announcements during a speech to an Austin civic club. “I can hardly wait for our rates to go down,” he said. “Those who think it is easy to work out these problems,tloi who froth at the mouthtol appointed to the commissioj some of them will have' opportunity.” A member of the PUCsbi 1975, Cowden said hewastitj of criticism, adding, Ti tired, I think. I’ve beenthertl long time.” The announcement camtij the conclusion of a speecli Cowden in which he White’s proposals for an eleq PUC and the abolishment of fuel adjustment clause. Cowden said that an elec PUC would be a serious misEt and that there was no wat make electric companiesabs fuel costs as proposed by Ilia Smith was appointed byC ments in January 1982,1m had not been confirmed bt Senate.

Policemen from several Texas cities testified Tuesday that the so-called “cop killer” bullets threatened the lives of officers and others who wear supposedly bullet-proof flak jackets for protection. “I see nojustifiable reason for this bullet,” Jerry Spain of the Texas Municipal Police Com mission told members of the House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee. “The bullet simply does no good for anybody and i Ic can do a lot of harm to many.” Sgt. D.E. Golden of the Richardson police department said, “We do not get paid to take unnecessary risks. I believe the availability of this kind of ammunition is an unnecessary risk.” Golden said oi category of armor-piercin: lets. “Birdshot will go throuf (bulletproof) vest if it's from a handmade pistol.Ti are a lot of things thattti through a vest,” NRA sptt man Herb Chambers of & Chik 2MF4MMHMMHF AHMMMf *SCHULMANt Golden said opposition to bills outlawing cop-killer bullets represented “a frail argument berry thinks i Sk RL.ITT THEATRES Student Disc Frt. with ID $2 , Tue».

But the NRA opposed two proposed bills that prohibited a general said. “If a polici he’s bulletproof, wrong." Richard Behan of Dallai ecutive director of the!

Robert Dedman, testifying Tuesday before a House sub committee conducting hearings on the department’s budget, said the 10 percent tax could re place the state’s current 5-cent gas tax. He said his estimate of $550 million depends on the price of gasoline remaining at about $1 per gallon. “I’d rather raise the percen tage tax on gas than raise regis tration fees," Dedman percentage tax is paid even f uel is bought and is no!) shot deal and as gas goes) does too. “Our highway depar® in a crisis posture " said. “Houston alone ned billion a year over a period years to get back to a n# they enjoyed in 1975.” The Legislative B) Board has recommended)! r i Budge nial appropriation of lion for the department’ j^ubseq man said the agency needi billion.
