Kenneth Halverson, R- Somerset. “Everyone knows that salt is the biggest doggone cause of road damage.” In the Senate committee, the senators agreed that if any of their colleagues want a tire tax, they would have to bring it up on the Senate floor. Rep. Ben Wilson, R-Bucks, said that a tax on the 1.2 million studded tires sold annually in the state would help offset the $4O million in damage that the Transportation Department says the tires cause. The Senate version would allow studded tires to be used between Nov. 1 and April 1; the House bill would allow their use from Nov. 1 to April 30. i During his campaign, Thornburgh said he favored some sort of tax on studded tires that would provide funds to repair roads. Since then, Transporation Secretary-designate Thomas Larson, a Penn State professor, has said he is opposed to studs, with or without a tax. fipy of these advertised'X ftvt.jjilf wy <*ems is required to be readi' ly available for sale at or be low the advertised price in each A&P Store, , as specifically noted in this ad. ./ The Gold Bond Stamp Company will continue to redeem full or partial stamp .booklets for premiums at their redemption center locations listed below.

Gov. William Scranton 111 of the power to refer bills to committee. Democratic senators made the decision in caucus Monday night based on a request by Sen. Robert Mellow, D- Lackawanna, who said Scranton should be given a chance to show he wouldn’t play political games. “I raised the question what is there to gain by doing this,” Mellow said. ‘‘We control the committees anyway. It’s just a show of good faith. We don’t want the people out there looking at us like we’re the bad guys looking to cover up things in government.” When the resolution was first in troduced, Senate Majority Leader Edward Zemprelli, a Penn State trustee, said Democrats felt they had to protect their power.

Zemprelli said the withdrawal “should not be misinterpreted byithe leadership on the other side of the aisle. “Hopefully, Senate Republicans will not attempt to play a game of politics by believing a Republican lieutenant governor presiding over the Senate gives them an edge over the party that con trols the chamber,” Zemprelli said. "As Democrats we stand ready to present our proposals and as the majority party in the Senate it’s not only our right but our duty to make certain our ideas receive consideration,” he said. Scranton said he never considered the issue a major controversy. “It was the first foray of the two sides kind of testing each other,” he said. “I was the new boy in town. 10CK ,. r CORNISH hens ", lb 99 c 169 LB fl PKG B B9° ,1 69 Voi 59° 129 30 OZ B DTL ■ \ L oi 89° 2,c, 1 00 cans g 4 ‘a--) 00 ..1 89 129 u oz B PKCS ■ 1 89 uoz | PKG B
