Carpenter's Controversial By Melvin Paul Statehouse Correspondent The Nebraska Press Association LINCOLN A proposal to anow tax - linanced transport ation for parochial school pu pils has been soundly defeated In the legislature. The vote a gainst the suggestion was 24-15 Spearheading the attempt for me controversial aid was Sen. Terry Carpenter of Scottsbluff. After the legislative turndown, he immediately announced he is having a constitutional amend ment prepared and hopes to have It submitted to the voters In 1964. The legislature's action came after Oovernor Morrison and some church spokesmen went on record In favoring of spend ing public money to finance school transportation for par ochial students. The governor said he also favors a constitut ional amendment on the matter. Carpenter had argued that It would be fair and equitable to give parochial schools some help In view of the money the private school system saves the taxpayers. During the debate, It was not ed that in 1953 the attorney gen eral issued an opinion stating that the aid to parochial students would be unconstitutional. How ever, Carpenter said the opin ion "does not really say any thing and I want to know the letter of the law on this matter." He said he was not prompted by any church group to Intro duce his proposal and added that It was submitted "because I believe in the principle." Among those who have a view opposite Carpenter's was Sen. Clifton Foster of Bradshaw. He said the Scottsbluff lawmaker's FAST LAUNDRY SERVICE WORK CLOTHES ERINC THEM IN BY 6 P.M.

He also maintained the state "does not owe the par ochial system a penny." Several of the parochial spok esmen said bus transportation Is In the category of "welfare serv ice" to which private school students are entitled as residents of the community. They said this in no way involves the doc trine of separation of church and state. Home Stretch Nebraska's lawmakers have had a four-day vacation and are now heading down the home stretch toward adjournment. There are some, Including presiding officer, Lt. Gov. Dwlght Burney, who can't vis ualize the completion of legis lative business before July 15. Between 50 and 60 bills were still awaiting first consideration at the start of this week and a good many of them were con troversial, some of them ex tremely so. Add to this the fact that the huge budget measure Is still to be debated and lt be comes obvious why many of the senators are pessimistic a bout the possibility of winding up their work prior to July 4. The legislators have been com ing to grips with some of the more knotty problems awaiting disposition. The defeat of the state Income tax proposal has helped some of the senators make up their minds on pending legislation. This group includes those who are working diligently to keep the levy on property for state governmental purposes as low as possible. Among bills getting prelimin ary approval In recent days was one proposing establishment of SLACKS slacks ;v J,,-u Biv m time vws SLACKS : TQ Mm DAD H GIVE Jkplf CAN f$ DAD $m ALWAYS A Wl USE m CURLEE W EXTRA SUIT.

Approval came des pite the fact the financing will apparently come from the state's general fund, which re ceives a good deal of Us support from the levy on property. The bill still has a long way to go, but it survived Us first floor test handily. Also off to a fast start is LB 665 which provides the means by which an osteopath may be licensed to practice medicine and surgery In Nebraska. One significant revision In the meas ure removed provisions which would have applied the grand father clause to presently prac ticing osteopaths. There are some lawmakers who now believe LB 15 will get a lot of support. The bill could impose a four-mill tax on stock in domestic and domesticated corporations. Such stock Is now exempt un der Nebraska's Intangible tax formula. The philosophy behind this exemption Is that it en courages home corporations. Ncbraskans who own stock in foreign corporations do not get such favred treatment. Already passed is LB 117, which Increases the tax on gross premiums of domestic Insur ance companies from four-tenths of one per cent to six-tenths of one per cent. Meat Price Investigation Governor Morrison says he Is opposed to having the state con duct an Investigation Into the decline of livestock prices and Its relationship to retail meat prices. The governor said such a study would only result In a duplica tion of similar studies conduc ted by the U. S. Department of Agroculture and the University of Nebraska College of Agricul ture. Recently, the legislature ask ed Morrison to report the re sults of a study Into the prices of cattle and hogs authorized by the lawmakers March 22. Morrison said he has confer red with agriculture department officials In Washington and with college of agriculture econo mists about the price problem. As a result of these talks, he added, he Is convinced what Is most urgently needed Is more rapid and frequent marketing Information to keep feeders vised about the general livestock situation across the country. Manpower Training Graduates The state labor department has announced employment re sults of the graduates of the first Manpower Development and Training IMUTI course held In the state. Of 25 unemployed persons en rolled In a clerical course at Technical High School in Om aha, 15 completed the course and of the enrollees, 16 are now employed In clerical occupa tions.
