'Oil is out as biggest form of revenue'
A&M debaters vote to raise taxes
By Nancy D. Wilkins
Reporter
To tax or not to tax? Students at
tending a debate Saturday answered
that question by voting 68-65 in fa
vor of raising taxes to solve the pre
sent Texas budget deficit.
In the forum debate held in Rud
der Tower by the Texas A&M De
bate Society, students argued the ne
cessity of a tax increase.
The forum is an “audience-style”
debate in which the audience dis
cusses the issue proposed by the
principal speakers, who give two-
minute opening arguments stating
their opinions on the issue. Then the
audience members, who are seated
according to how they feel about the
issue, debate with each other. Those
audience members who change their
opinions during the debate move to
the other section.
Anita McDaniel, a speech commu
nications major from Houston,
kicked off the debate as the principal
speaker against the tax increase, say
ing that the best solution for solving
the immediate deficit problem is to
diversify the economy and not be so
dependent on the oil industry for
revenue.
“Oil is out,” McDaniel said, “and
now we need to find other ways to
earn revenue.”
McDaniel said that while the rest
of the United States suffered during
the recession of the early 1980s,
Texas was enjoying great prosperity.
“And so Texans laughed,” she
said. “But they’re not laughing
now.”
McDaniel said that even a tax in
crease and cuts in spending won’t
cure the present deficit.
One of the solutions proposed by
McDaniel was to delay state retire
ment payments until early March.
This, she said, would mean the re
cipients still would get their money,
but the state wouldn’t have to spend
this money until early March .
Another solution, McDaniel said,
would be for the state to issue tax an
ticipation notes that would be issued
by the treasury and create money
that wouldn’t have to be paid until
the next fiscal year.
By F
The other principal speaker,
Sheryl Perkins, a senior computer
science major from Houston, said
the only way for Texas to solve its
deficit problem is to increase taxes.
Perkins argued that cutting state
programs isn’t practical because
Texas already is operating on a very
“lean budget.”
She cited cuts in higher education
as an example, saying universities
are labor intensive and deep budget
cuts could be disastrous. She also
said that lower salaries resulting
from budget cuts would force pro-
vioral lit

House approves earlier primary for Texas
WORD PROCESSING: Dissertations, theses, manu
scripts, reports, term papers, resumes. 764-6614.9t 10/8
AUSTIN (AP) — Backers say
Texans would have increased clout
in choosing the 1988 presidential
nominees under legislation, which
has won final approval from the
House.
The House on Saturday voted to
move the Texas presidential pri
mary from May to the second Tues
day in March, allowing the state to
join in the southern “Super Tues
day” primary.
Eleven southern states already
have scheduled their primaries for
early March.
Texas now holds its presidential
delegate selection on the first Satur
day in May in conjunction with the
primaries for state offices.
Under the bill that won voice vote
approval in the House, all primaries
would be held on the second Tues
day in March. The measure now
goes back to the Senate with minor
amendments.
House sponsor Clint Hackney, D-
Houston, said Senate leaders have
“It is going to increase the
power of Texas in presi
dential politics just a
whole heck of a lot. ”
— House sponsor Clint
Hackney, D-Houston.
Supporters of the bill complained
upporl
that tne May primary comes too latt
said they would accept House
changes, and Gov. Mark White on
Saturday added the primary bill to
the agenda of the special session.
“It is going to increase the power
of Texas in presidential politics just
a whole heck of a lot,” Hackney said.
Texas in 1984 sent the third-larg-
est delegations to the Republican
and Democratic national conven-
since many candidates drop out be
fore Texans get to see and hear
them.
“It’s going to help anybody that
wins Texas,” Hackney said.
Some Republicans have predicted
that the earlier primary should help
Vice President George Bush, who
hails from Houston.
“I think it’s very possible that
George Bush could benefit from the
bill,” Hackney added. “I don’t know
of any polls or anything that says
George Bush can win Texas. 1 would
think that he’s got a pretty good shot
in Texas, so it would help him to
take a big state early.”
ttons.
The 12 combined Southern states
would select about one-third of the
national convention delegates in the
“super primary.”
Another prospective GOP presi
dential candidate, Rep. Jack Kemp,
R-N.Y., had assigned political opera
tives to the Legislature this month to
work against the bill.
The bill was approved with little
debate.
