Slouch By Jim Earle
“Don’t you see it doesn’t matter that you don’t need to leave
early for spring break. You’ve got to remember that you have
a proud tradition to uphold!’’
Gambling bill
to be voted on
i
in House today
Associated Press
AUSTIN — The horse race bet
ting bill that proponents say means
big money and opponents say means
big crime bits the House floor today
for a crucial vote.
“I’ll be shocked if we lose,” said
Ricky Knox, director of the Texas
Horse Racing Association. “I think
we’re in good shape.”
The 1983 version of the pari-mu
tuel gambling bill was approved in
the Senate but killed by two votes in
the House.
Supporters say this year’s state
government budget crunch could
lure the votes needed for House pas-
sage.
Texas Agriculture Commissioner
Jim Hightower issued a report show
ing that horserace betting could
mean $712 million for the state
economy by 2000.
Opponents, including church
groups, are not impressed with the
dollar-sign comments.
Former Gov. Price Daniel said, “I
am opposed to legalization of race
track gambling because I lived
through the last period of legalized
gambling and I saw the crime and
waste which resulted.”
House members got some direct
lobbying during a prayer last week
by Rev. Steven White of the Olive
Branch Baptist Church of Axtell.
“Let thy Holy Spirit quicken the
consciences of these men so that de
cisions concerning pari-mutuel gam
bling, ecology, abortion, even eco
nomics, reflect only the wisdom of
thy will,” said White.
“May their only special interest
lobby be thy word ana will, and may
morality and justice never be weak
ened by the dollar sign.”
The measure headed to the
House floor seems to meet the three
requirements set out by Gov. Mark
White. He promised to veto any
pari-mutuel bill that does no^ in
clude a statewide vote, local option
votes and tight controls on orga
nized crime.
But as of Tuesday, it was not
known if the bill satisfies the Legis
lative Black Caucus, whose 13 House
members pulled their support be
cause the measure does not include
money dedicated to welfare.
Speaker Gib Lewis, a pari-mutuel
betting backer, opposes any additio
nal dedicated funds. He said such
appropriations handcuff the budget
process.
The 12 House members of the
black caucus apparently have given
up on the welfare fund demand but
have negotiated provisions aimed at
guaranteeing minority ownership of
tracks.
Reforms attacked
by poor schools
Associated Press
AUSTIN — Eight low-wealth
school districts and the Mexican-
American Legal Defense and Educa
tion Fund said Tuesday in court that
state school reforms have not done
enough to finance their schools.
The schools and MALDEF, which
sued the state, renewed their peti
tion Tuesday in a Travis County dis
trict court.
“The plaintiffs in the litigation ap
preciate the increased funds avail
able to low-wealth districts,” said A1
Kauffman, MALDEF attorney. “Un
fortunately they are not sufficiently
distributed or large enough to bring
the finance system into line with our
own state Constitution. Plaintiffs are
continuing to suffer from the fi
nance system and they will continue
to light to improve it.”
The eight school districts and 24
parents of school children rep
resented by MALDEF filed suit in
May 1984, claiming the state school
financing system discriminated
against them because much of the fi
nancial support for schools was
based on local property taxes.
Poor school districts did not get as
much support from taxes as other
districts.
The school reform bill passed last
summer included a new method of
allocating state school money with a
formula designed to give poorer
schools more state aid.
State Commissioner of Education
W.N. Kirby told a Senate committee
Monday the new formula was based
mainly on school district sizes and
population densities but also was in
fluenced by wages paid in adjoining
districts and by the number of “dis
enfranchised children” in the dis
tricts.
The State Board of Education has
asked the Legislature to let it review
the formula at the end of this school
year and make changes if necessary.
The petition filed Tuesday said
revisions made by the summer spe
cial session “were supposed to suffi
ciently compensate for the insidious
and comprehensive inequity and un-
constitutionality of the system. They
did not.”
The plaintiffs complain that even
with increased taxes and new monies
provided in the school reform bill
they still have only one-half as much
money per year to educate their chil
dren as they need.
“House Bill 72 is on the road to
ward equalization, but it does not
produce equity,” said a statement by
James Vasquez, superintendent of
the Edgewood Independent School
District in San Antonio, read at a
news conference Tuesday.
“It will cost our district $6 million
of the $6 million new money just to
implement our salary schedule,” said
Superintendent Bill Sybert of the
Socorro district in El Paso.
Estela Padilla of Ysleta said, “Our
children in low-wealth districts still
do not have equal opportunity for an
adequate education. They need
more teachers, better buildings,
more education programs, and the
other enrichments that students in
the wealth districts have.”
The eight school districts in the
suit are Brownsville, Edgewood, Ea
gle Pass, La Vega, Pharr-San Juan-
Alamo, San Elizario, Socorro and
South San Antonio.
