PAGE THREE
Auto 1 ax Dills
by Regan Now
Before Senate
Ecsigned to Correct the Registration
and Assessment Bills of the
Last Legislature.
Reception of two new members in
to the fold, introduction of two bills
on automobile registration and tax
ation, completion of a list of twenty-
three employes by the committee on
committees, constituted the work of
the state senate during the forenoon.
"All dressed up and no place to go,"
said Lieutnant Governor Jurgensen
as the senate took a recess for lack of
something to do.
Leon II. Hines of Benkelman and
L. A. Sprague of Red Cloud, demo
crats, were admitted to membership
in the senate by appointment of their
county committees and the governor.
Their arrival filled the thirty-three
senate seats. Both were called upon
for remarks.
"In trying to fill Bull Billard's
seat, I mean Bill Bullard," said
Hines, "I do my best," Hines told the
senate he lives three miles from the
Kansas line and thirty miles from
the Colorado line.
Sprague of Red Cloud was intro
duced as the "left end of the senate,"
that being the position of his seat.
"As substituting for Pedersen, re
signed," he said, "I do not want to
be understood as either bragging or
apologizing."
The senate revenue committee has
two of Howell'a bonding bills, one
for issuance of county, city and vil
lage bonds, and another for Omaha
to issue sewer bonds, both designed
to accept federal aid for public im
provements, without a vote of the
electors. No action has been taken.
The bills are alleged to face hard
sledding In the senate, even Omaha
members not all being In favor of
them.
O'Brien Not Pleased.
Preliminary perusal or the gover
nor's old age pension bill, H. R. 17,
failed to please State Senator O'Brien,
author of an old age pension bill in
the regular session. Several provi
sions of the new bill were displeasing
to O'Brien, particularly those per
taining to deduction of a pensioner's
income from the $30 maximum pen
sion to be drawn under the bill.- The
measure sets at 5 percent of the
amount of any property owned by the
pensioner his income from that prop
erty. "Why, there Isn't a farm in the
state of Nebraska that nets 5 per
cent of its value," O'Brien said.
"That's got to come out." He also
indicated displeasure with the sec
tion giving the state a lien on a
decedent pensioner's property. He
pointed out the federal bill merely
says it will take half of any such
proceeds if the state puts such a
provision In Its setup. O'Brien said
he did not have a campaign mapped
out as yet, but indicated he might
introduce his own bills for old age
pensions as well as strive to strike
from the governor's bill sections he
felt objectionable.
Regan of Columbus introduced two
bills in the senate to simplify the
two laws passed by the regular ses
sion for registration and taxation of
motor vehicles, H. R. 70 and H. R.
90, bills which the governor said in
his call were unworkable measures.
The bills are S. F. 3 and S. F. 4.
Both were advanced to second read
ing. S. F. 4 relates to registration. It
provides that the treasurer of a coun
ty shall not receive applications or
registration fee nor issue a certificate
of registration unless the owner first
exhibits proof of tax receipt or other
wise that he has paid all personal tax
on said vehicle based on assessment
4 thereof made in the year next preced
ing the year for which such applica
tion for registration is made; or that
he was the owner of another vehicle
of a similar kind, on which he paid
personal taxes during such year; or
that he owned no such motor vehicle
upon which personal taxes might
have been levied during said year.
S. F. 3, by Regan, strikes out much
of the old law and simplifies the
work of listing for taxation. It re-
Quires dealers to report vehicles on!
hand April 1 of each year as mer
chandise, describing each thus re
turned and the county treasurer shall
on April 1 and the first of each
month, up to and including July 1,
of each year, furnish the county as
sessor a liat of all vehicles registered,
and addresses of owner, township and
school district. The state tax com
missioner is to certify a schedule of
values to county clerks on or before
April 1 of each year.
The bill further provides that not
withstanding the general laws re
lating to revenue, the taxation of per
sonal property in general and the de
linquency of taxes on personal prop-

erty, all taxes on motor vehicles shall
be due and payable in a single pay
ment on Nov. 1 of the year in which
they may be assessed, and shall be
come delinquent on Feb. 1 thereafter.
Provided, that in 1935 suck taxes
shall be due and payable Dec. 1. Re
ceipts issued for payment of taxes
on motor vehicles will not carry the
levy of the state and the sub-divisions,
any more general law to the
contrary notwithstanding.
