Gov. Smith Asks Drive On Insurance Revision AUSTIN (AP) Gov. Smith urged the public Tuesday to sound off for competitive car and house insurance rates and threatened another special legislative, sesion if lawmakers fail to take "a clearcut vote" on the issue. Smith spoke with reporters while the House worked through a stack of 13 bills, all submitted to the special session by the governor. The Senate is expected to take up the competitive rate issue Wednesday, and House Rayford Price said representatives would vote on a Thursday of Friday.

Price said he still feels the session can adjourn Friday, adding he feels the House will kill the competitive rate measure. That would not prompt the governor to recall the lawmakers in another special session, Smith said. Lower Insurance Cost Although Smith has submitted 26 topics to the session, he indicated he has not lost interest in the main reason for the session-competitive rates as a means, the way he sees it, of reducing car insurance costs for many Texans. "Now really is the time for the concerned, citizens of our state their representatives and senators. This session was called for the people.

Now it is time for the people to speak," Smith said. He was possibility asked he whether there call was another a special session the fifth for the 62nd Legislature. "Yes, there sure is," he replied emphatically, "in the event the House and Senate do not have a clear cut vote on insurance reform, due perhaps to a filibuster or to a conference committee report not being brought out. Under that condition I certainly would call one because I think the people are entitled to know how their legislators stand on insurance reform in this state." Defeat of a competitive rate bill in either house would be "clearcut action" and would not prompt him to recall the lawmakers," he said. Favorable Prospect Asked how he assessed the chances of passing a rate competition bill, Smith said, "Every evaluation we've made with legislative leadership and the members has been favorable.

Smith also said he would wait until the session ends to make his third attempt at filling a vacancy Insurance on the Board. three man State previous Court Seat Bid Is Lost By Courtney BATON ROUGE, (AP) A state district court rejected Tuesday efforts by New Orleans attorney Cy D.
