Special Session Slated Because
Of Three Words "Not To Exceed"

LINCOLN—It will cost Nebras
kans about $10,000 this year for
special sessions of the Legisla
ture The second extraordinary
meeting of the lawmakers this
year is slated for December The
first was held in August.
Gov. Dwight Burney suggested
the forthcoming gathering, to per
mit senators taking office in Jan
uary to receive higher pay au
thorized by the voters in Novem
ber.
In August, the late Gov. Ralph
C. Brooks summoned the so ions
to take acti< n to boost the state’s
industry getting iiotential. They
did and an amendment to (to that
was also approved at the polls in
November
The problem on the higher
pay U that the Constitutional
amendment which passed in No
vember needs legislation to fix
the levy of |»av since its word
ing does not do that. It mere
ly sets a ceiling of $200 per
month.
Lawmakers now get $872 per
year. It is expected there will
be a little troubde in setting the
pay at the maximum $2t)0 per
month on the theory that’s the
figure the voters approved.
The salary may very well
produce mure younger members
of the one house body who in the
past have not been able to serve
because of the time required away
from their jobs, and the corres
ponding loss in income.
Board Of Control
It |(x>ks like trouble ahead for
the present Board of Control sys
tem for managing state institu
tions. The three-member board,
whose membership is named by
the governor to six-year terms,
r- — ' ■ ■ ■ ■ ■
has weathered several storms in
the Legislature But most veteran
observers now feel the “hand
writing is on the wall," in the
one coming up in Jaunary
As rspected, a committee of
state senator* who studied U»e
board operations the pant 18
month*, recommended changes.
Including enlargement of the
board to a seven member "po
licy -making only" group.
Also recommended was a sep
arate department of public wel
fare, a fundi n now handled by
the board, with all state insti
tutions under a director hired by
the board.
It was felt by the committee
that the Catad school for the
Trainable Mentally Retarded be
removed from jurisdiction cl the
board and placed under the State
Department of Edjcation.
Two board institutions already
are under jurisdiction of the Ed
ucation Department — Schools for
the Blind at Nebraska City and
the Deaf at Omahu.
There is liable to be a sizeable
scrap in the Leg.slature over
what type of an operation to have
in managing state institutions but
many senators checked felt the
prisent three-member board sys
tem would definitely be altered.
The big problem in the last ses
sion was lack of a suitable sub
stitute for abolishment of the
board which fell th y have provid
ed this time.
legislative Council
The 1961 Legislature will be
faced with many state problems,
some of which have already been
researched by committees and re
commendations made. About 60
per cent of recommendations by
committees of the Legislative
Council, which is really the Le
gislatore sitting as a study group,
--r\
become law Thus, some of the
following recommendations, will
become law in 1961:
Abolishment of the Present
Board of Pardons, composed of
three elected officials, and sub
stitution of a permanent board of
the same size The governor, sec
rotary of state and attorney gen
eral now comprise the board
Registration of all voters in the
state, instead of only in the pnn
cipaicipal cities as now is the
case
Establishment of a State Labor
Relations Act, to govern activities
between employers.
Boosting of the state property
tax levy for parks from .13 of a
mill to .35 of a mill. Ihe latter
would be 35 cents tax for each
$1,000 assessed worth of property
owned by a Nebraskan.
Creation of an office of the ag
ing to handle problems of older
people in Nebraska.
Tightening of laws describing
when property owned by charit
able, religious or fraternal or
ganizations shall be exempt frem
property taxes.
Collection of nuscellanous taxes
by the tax commissioner instead
of the Agriculture Department as
now is the case.
Insurance Business
State Insurance Director Will
iam Grubbs says states have a
challenge to meet if they, in
stead of the federal government,
are to continue regulating the
insurance indastry.
This was part > f his argument
for $30,'J(H) more in tax money for
the 1951-63 biennium.
Nebraska now receives all tax
es from insurance premiums
which amount to about $4 million
per year, Grubbs said, half of
wh.ch goes to operate state gov
ernment and the remainder to
the 93 counties.
