1 Eight ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL March 8, 1959 State Officials' Pay Increased Continued from Page One review budgets of state agencies was transferred to the Board of Finance under SB130, passed by the House. also approved Sen. T. E. Lusk's bill to slow down wholesale personnel turnovers in state offices at every change of administration.

Lill Set Aside Later, the House set aside for further study a bill lating use of motor boats and licensing them. This measure has cleared the Senate. At the same time, the House passed Senate measures to: -Force employers to give their workers three hours time off on election day to vote. -Let the State Tuberculosis Hospital acquire and operate outside facilities. -Change the small loan act so that interest does not have to be computed to the exact date of payment.

-Outline procedures whereby state agencies dispose of old public records. -Urge Congress not to raise federal gasoline taxes. Opposed By Two In the Senate, only one Democrat, Lon V. Shurbet of Roy, voted against the bill changing the makeup of the Capitol Custodian Commission. The measure slipped through, The other dissenting vote came from Sen.

Richard ma (R-McKinley). "I'll stick with Betty," Pousma said in casting his vote. Betty Fiorina is the present secretary of state. The proposed salary increases were from 5-10 per cent, much lower than first asked in the bill sponsored by Sen. Fabian Chavez, (D-Santa Fe) and others.

Chavez said Gov. John Burroughs and Lt. Gov. Ed V. Mead asked they not be given increases.

Defending the increases, the senator pointed out the raises only totaled $3,000 a year for the five posts and added, "The better salaries we give, the better men we'll get. The bill passed, 17-13. Sen. M. P.

Carr (D-De Baca), one of those opposed, said he thought increases given officials two years ago were adequate. Old, New Scales State officers and propesed salaries include (present salaries are in parenthesis): Secretary of state $10,800 auditor $11,100 000); treasurer $11,100 000); attorney general $12,600 commissioner of public lands $12,900 The governor receives $17,500 annually. The lieutenant governor is paid $40 a day while the legislature is in session. He serves as president of the Senate. Senators also approved a bill to increase salaries of corporation commissioners from $7000 to $7800; but tacked a conditional amendment onto the measure to discourage commissioners from running for another state office.

This amendment, expected to be removed in the House, apparently was aimed at Commissioner Ingram Picket, who was a candidate for governor in the Democratic primaries last year and has openly opposed attempts to set up party conventions to replace the open primary. Chavez Defends Sen. Chavez, who tried unsuccessfully to pass a convention bill this session, spoke in defense of the amendment. Both salary measures and the Capitol Custodian Commission bill now go to the House for action. The custodian proposal would change the organization of the commission, which now includes the governor, the secretary of state and the chief custodian, Joe Baca of Albuquerque.

The commission appoints the custodian. When Mrs. Fiorina came into office in January, she named Baca to replace John KEEP ACTIVE with FRAUER BLACK ELASTIC SUPPORTS Tired muscles, varicose veins, strains and sprains can sap your energy and ruin your health.

Money for Parks The biggest- money measure to pass the House was the one appropriating $659,750 for capital outlay by the State Park Commission. There was a move on the floor of the House made, $99,000 from this total, but it failed. The Senate pared about $122,000 from the original request before passing the bill and sending it to the House.

Another appropriation measure, which also creates a new state agency, was a combination of HB41 and HB166. Rep. Anderson Carter (D- Roosevelt) submitted the first bill for the Legislative Finance Committee. Rep. Alfonso Montoya (D-Sandoval) drafted the second.

Features of both were combined in the bill which passed Saturday. It creates a Public Records Commission to administer the orderly disposition of public records and archives. An appropriation of $55,000 for operation during the coming biennium is included in the measure. Killed Second Time The House killed for the second time legislation proposing a convention, system for nomifor the new Pous-10-member State Board of Edlucation. The bill, turned down once be before, was recalled and heavily amended by its sponsor, Rep.

Thomas Roberts (R-Los Alamos). The first time it was killed 24-36 on Feb. 24. It had even less support Saturday and died, 22-31. The House also killed, by adopting an unfavorable committee report, a bill to establish regional and municipal planning boards in New Mexico.

Another measure to pass the House Saturday repealed a tax measure passed only two years ago. Under SB120, certain sales to federal government agencies would be exempted from the state school tax. Rep. James Patton (D- Dona Ana), who sponsored the measure to do away with the exemption two years ago, urged passage of the measure to reestablish it. "We were out to ax the big contractors and everyone in the net," Patton said.

Truckers Trying To Kill I Ton-Mile Tax, Says Carter SANTA FE (P) -Rep. Anderson Carter (D-Roosevelt) Saturday charged that "big truckers and their allies in the state government" are attempting to kill his proposed ton-mile tax for trucks.

Carter, a representative from the hometown of Gov. John Burroughs, has had noticeably cool relations with the administration for some time. It came to a head during the nearlycompleted current legislative session when Carter was ousted from his position as head of the House Appropriations and Finance Committee. He said truckers are attempting to kill his bill in committee "because they are afraid to let it be aired publicly." He said the first step in the campaign was the double referral given the bill to the taxation and transportation committees. The measure (HB396) is scheduled for hearing at 8:30 a.

m. Monday before the taxation and revenue committee. "The big truckers and their allies in the state government are afraid to let the bill get to the floor of the House," Carter said. The sharp-spoken representative said it was "obvious" that highway commissioner H. E.

Leonard was one of the "allies" to which he referred. Leonard is a prominent Albuquerque equipment and tire dealer. "Their influence on some of the governor's top aides is apparent. They have been working hard to dig a grave for the bill before get out of committee," said. 'Carter A top aide, Dick Valdez, could not be located for comment Saturday.

Carter said his bill, drawn after a long study by the legislative finance committee which he heads, would bring in an additional five to six million dollars in revenue, "without levying new taxes." "The study shows that under the 1955 laws the little trucker had to shoulder a larger burden of taxes while some big truckers had taxes reduced by 60 to 80 per cent," Carter said. He said the big truckers' taxes had dropped by as much as one to six cents a mile since the passage of the controversial "big truck law" of 1955.

"These shares were worth some $40,000. They should make about $5000 worth of dividends for each one of the eight new shareholders," he said. "I decided to give this money prisoners two years ago when I felt that I was soon going to die," he said. "There is nothing worse in life than to lose one's liberty and before dying I wanted to do something, for who freedom of action," he said.

Elfego Baca, Belen chief of police, and H. Leslie Williams, of the district attorney's office, intimated "acts of violence" were responsible. Neither could explain why the "killer" or "killers" had apparently stripped their victims before placing them in the spot.

Credence Lent Laskar's explanation invites credence because artifacts rings, buckles, have been left in the original burial area; thus left behind when the bones were moved to other locations. Laskar said Saturday he believed he could tell the anthropologists where to look for other skeletons. "They're scattered all through that area," he said. But speculation, offering a number of possibilities but no very logical answers, continued to circulate around the mystery. Discovery of the bodies was made Friday by two young men who broke through the concrete floor of the building while excavating.

A University of New Mexico team of student anthropologists Saturday, Jerry Dawin charge, said skeletons of son, three adults, two babies and remains of at least parts of two others had been found.
