State Raises

License Fee
HARRISBURG ') The sen
ate yesterday endorsed an in
crease in the state's dollar-a-year
driver's license fee to five dol
lars every two years.
As approved by the senate the
increased fee would bring $l5 mil
lion each two years into the mo
tor fund. That is $5 million more
than the house-approved version
would bring in.
However, it is about $5 million
less than Gov. Lawrence request
ed. He had asked for a license
fee of $3 a year.
Senate Republicans boosted the
figure over the house version in
a compromise move to give the
governor part of his requested
road revenue program.
In addition to the license fee
boost, Lawrence has asked a pen

bring in $6O million a biennium.

New Tax Stays
in Committee
HARRISBURG (?1- Senate
Democrats tried unsuccessfully
yesterday to force the administra
tion's personal property tax out
of the Finance Committee.
The Republican-controlled Sen
ate defeated the move 21-28, vot
ing straight party lines. Demo
crats said the revenue could be
used for increasing school aid.
Top Republicans have declared
that the tax on stocks and bonds,
which would yield some $55 mil
lion during the biennium, is dead.
The levy has been in the com
mittee since June 30, when it was
approved by the House.
Sen. William J. Lane CD-

to bypass the committee and
bring the bill out for action so
the money could be used to in

"We have taxed the poor peo

clared. "There is no reason why
we shouldn't tax stocks and
bonds."
