Call 845-2611 AUSTIN (AP) — Texas voters head to the polls Tuesday to decide the fate of 21 proposed constitu tional amendments, with topics ranging from how much to pay legis lators to abolishing seven county sur veyor jobs. Although the amendments will change the Constitution for all Tex ans, light voter turnout statewide is expected to give extra clout to Hous ton residents, who also are choosing a mayor and a successor to the late Congressman Mickey Leland. Secretary of State George Bayoud projects statewide turnout at about 12 percent of the 8.2 million regis tered voters, and he said one-third to one-half of that may come from Harris County. ^ Fueling interest in the Houston races are 11 candidates seeking the U.S. House seat that belonged to Le land, who died last August in a plane crash in Ethiopia. The Houston city elections got last-minute attention after incum bent Councilman Jim Westmoreland made a racial slur over the renaming of Houston Intercontinental Airport to honor Leland. Heading the list of constitutional amendments before all voters is a proposal to more than triple — from ^7,200 a year to $23,300 — the sala ries of members of the Legislature. That proposition also would re move the constitutional requirement that voters approve future salary hikes by tying lawmakers’ pay to the governor’s salary, which the Legis lature sets. The pay raise proposal goes be fore voters after months of news re ports about lobbyists spending more than $1.8 million to entertain legis lators during their 140-day regular session this year. A companion amendment, Propo sition 11, would nearly triple law makers’ daily expense allowance from $30 to $81, the maximum al lowed by federal tax laws. A second major amendment. Proposition 2, has drawn support from most state leaders. It woulcl au thorize issuance of $500 million in additional Texas water development bonds, including money for im provements in the South Texas colo- nias. Among those urging its passage were Comptroller Bob Bullock, who noted that nearly 1,000 colonias ex ist in Texas. “Tens of thousands of our fellow Texans . . . are living in Third World conditions, conditions that are vir tually unknown in other parts of Texas and other parts of the coun try,” Bullock said. Some other propositions est: • No. 3: To authorizes"; in bonds for programs toassT development of small busir.t,'“ ricult u ral prod action or ne»; Vc: prove products within thest • No. 21: To issue uptofi lion in tax-free college saving by the Higher Education!
