ANPCAPTOI2EPBY L/r-ui' A 5WEA7V NO-NECK it-W swmc&mm AUSTIN — State Land Commis sioner Garry Mauro asked the Texas Supreme Court Thursday to recon sider a decision that Mauro estimates could cost the Permanent School Fund $918 million in mineral reve nues. The court recently ruled that the state does not own the coal and lig nite under 817 acres in Webb County. Instead, the court gave ownership of minerals within 200 feet of the surface to surface owner H.D. Schwarz, who leased the land for strip mining in 1978. Mauro said in a brieFing that the owner was not an unwilling victim in the mining of the minerals. “It must not be forgotten that this lease was executed by the surface owners for themselves, and as agents of the state,” the commissioner said. “The state did not force them to lease it; they did it of their own free will.” According to Land Office re cords, the surface owners in the case, including Schwarz, have collected $602,781 as a result of their part nership with the Permanent School Fund, which receives income from state-owned minerals, Mauro said. The fund is used to support pub lic education in Texas. “Despite the rich rewards received by the petitioners, and despite their agreement that such compensation adequately protects them for all damages to the soil, they ask this honorable court to rob the Perma nent School Fund of Texas of its share of the mineral revenues from this lease,” Mauro said. Proposal will 'hurt oil industry Governors object to tax plan Associated Press AUSTIN — Govs. Mark White of Texas and George Nigh of Okla homa said T hursday just the sugges tion that tax incentives for the oil and gas industry might be with drawn will hurt the industry, and the nation. “What this uncertainty in the tax impact has already done in Texas is to decrease the utilization of drilling rigs by 33 percent during the First six months (of 1985) and decrease by 33,000 the number of industry-re lated jobs in this state,” White said. Nigh said, “The treasury (depart ment) proposal in itself, as was pointed out very adequately by Gov. White, damaged the industry —just the fear, waiting for the other shoe to drop — created problems within the industry, within the economic development of our state, within the national security of our country.” White and Nigh were co-hosts for the 50th anniversary meeting of the Interstate Oil Compact Commission. The IOCC has 36 member states, and 25 answered the roll at the main session Thursday. The governors’ messages were similar — the industry needs tax in centives to explore for oil and gas so the United States can reduce its de pendence on petroleum imports. “Isn’t it obvious that this nation simply cannot run without adequate dies of oil and gas, that America supplies ot oil and gas, mat America couldn’t even get up and go to work in the morning without it?” asked morning White. “Isn’t it obvious that any re duction of the industry’s momentum would be a severe setback to the en tire nation? “We must emphasize that our De fense Department operates with pri mary energy resources. “We have spent literally hundreds of billions of dollars, and 1 thini people throughout this countryaml particularly in Texas recoenize tht need to build a strong national de fense, and yet I will suggest to you that the treatment given totheoi and gas industry by this current ad ministration’s tax proposals would suggest to you that there are alterna tive fuel sources for the operationol a B-1 bomber and an M-l tank. “They don’t run on coal or cord wood, and the sooner our Congres and our administration understand! that, the sooner, I think, they will understand the ingredients wtfspeal of — for national security, we mus have a secure energy policy.” Nigh said, “If we can’t have en ergy independence, we can’t be in dependent — it’s that simple.’^ He said he had personally asked President Reagan for a meeting talk about oil and gas. Reti re (continued from page 1) will be forfeited upon retirement, he says. Persons wishing to participate in the program must apply no later than 90 days prior to the retirement date, he says. other words, the employee does not have the right to demand to retire early and then come back on a part- time basis. It wouldn’t make sense from an institutional standpoint be cause there might not be anything worthwhile for a person to do on a part-time basis.” According to the policy statement, the department or administrative unit head will review the application with the employee and then decide whether to recommend the appro val. Lancaster says the program is vol untary and will not be used to get rid of unwanted employees. If the department head approves the application, he must demon strate that the rehiring is in the best interest of the System, the policy says. “The early retirement program was not meant to be seen as the right of an employee,” Lancaster says. “In F rogrt u what some people call ‘dead wood’,” he says. “It’s entirely voluntary on the part of the partici- E ant. I’m sure administration at all :vels would discourage the urging of the subject from the standpoint of the administration on down to the person saying ‘why don’t you con sider this’ becaause that’s not the in tent of this program at all.” What’s up MSC GROVE 85; Friday 5; presents “Lone Wolf McQuade” at 8:45 pun in 701 Rudder.

Defense (continued from page 1) now receiving retirement pay nor the 2.1 million people now in uni form would have their benefits re duced. The cuts mean the Pentagon will only put aside $1 4.2 billion next year for retirement, rather than the $1 8.2 billion which had been requested. The Senate proposed a smaller cut — $1.8 billion —in retirement. The House also gave voice-vote approval to a proposal making es pionage a crime punishable by death under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. The measured was sponsored by Rep. Bill McCollum, R-Fla., who said, “I can think of nothing that’s more dramatically demonstrated the need for this than the Walker case.” fight over the administration’s Cen tral America policy. That was a reference to the current Navy spy case, in which four men are charging with passing secrets to the Soviet Union. The Nicaraguan debate was the latest round in the long-running While Reagan has said he wouldn’t use American comb forces there, he has strongly crit icized the Sandinistas and his admin istration is openly supporting a force of I 2,000 to 1 5,000 Contra rebels.
