Temporary sales tax cut goes into effect Monday SACRAMENTO (UI'l) Some of the millions of surplus dollars Califomians.paid into the state treasury last year will begin trickling back Monday when a temporary, one-cent sales tax reprieve goes into effect. Consumers will benefit from reduced taxes on merchandise from beer to baseballs for the next six months. revenue loss lo the state "will consume about million record J826 million surplus accumulated last fiscal year.

Another big chunk will be eaten up in April when income taxpayers are given rebates on their 1973 returns. For most Califomians the sales tax respite will mean a drop from six lo five cents on the dollar. In counties served by the Bay Area Rapid Transit District (Contra Costa; Alameda and San Francisco) the reduction is from 6 Vi to 5 V4 cents. Then in April, when residents are counting their state uwome tax savings, the sales tax is scheduled to jump up once more to its current level. For California's nearly half million retail businesses, the up- again, down-again sales tax problem was compounded by a false start in the initial increase.

The penny boost, the state's first sales tax hike in six years, was to go into effect June 1, but was put off 30 days at the last moment. The tax-collecting Board of (equalization already has notified about 434,000 businessmen of Monday's change. Leroy Benson, the board's management analysis chief, said I rucks were needed to cart the notices, including new rate schedules, to the post office. He estimated mailing costs at $35,000 and printing charges between $6,000 and $7,000. A similar mailing went out with the earlier delay and another must occur before the rate changes again in April.

The reason for all the juggling was a summer-long squabble between Republican Gov: Ronalil Reagan and legislative -Democrats on how best to dispose of the surplus: Basically, however, Reagan said it. back in roughly the same paid in, while the Democratic leadership'thought it best to give everyone what they deemed to be a equal share. After voting the SWay delay lo give both sides time to negotiate, neither would budge and the belated increase went into effect. A howl from and the threat of his tax limitation initlative-rwriich contained a surplus-returning provision combined to give him what he wanted: A six-month sales lax decrease and a system of income tax rebates. Originally, the sales tax boost was intended to help finance the state's hew property lax relief.and school finance program.

But the point was quickly made moot as a booming economy, welfare savings and payroll withholding flooded the treasury with an unprecedented surplus. In the end Reagan called it the "largest state tax rebate in the nation's history." Others in government thought the action just gave taxpayers back funds which should have never been collected. Cabinet resignations cancelled ATHEMS (UPI) -A group of cabinet members who had helped form the Greek military regime cancelled plans for a dramatic mass resignation Saturday, less than 24 hours after throe colleagues quit to protest the demililarization of the government, political sources said.

The sources said they did not know whal caused the cancellation of the resignation. Second deputy Premier Nickolas Makarezos and two deputy ministers resigned Friday in a move which political observers said they viewed as a last-ditch effort by hardliners to delay the demilitarization.

The agency, created by Congress last year and in operation since May, released a list of the products over which it has jurisdiction, ranked numerically in order of injury risk. The figures were based on emergency room data from 119 'hospitals'-- about 2 per cent of the total all over the country.

Data is fed daily into a computer to give the agency a quick idea of what people are being injured by, and to alert them to any" series of related injuries from one product or type of; product. 1 The list reflects not only the number of injuries but their; severity ana the degree to which children under age 10 are; last two factors were assigned higher numbers. Thus bicycles came out on top, even though there may be: fewer actual accidents than with some other products, of the degree to which children are involved perhaps the' severity of Thus the "most hazardous" tag for bicycles reflects not only the risk of injury but who might be! injured and how badly. -f- i In all, the list contains .169 product categories. The one at the bottom, deemed least risky, was lapidary equipment such as rock tumblers and polishers.

The commission estimated that bicycles, and the equipment attached to them, are responsible for 372,000 injuries requiring emergency room treatment each year. Hazards include mechanical failures, feet caught in spokes or chain and loss of control resultingincollisions. The agency said it expects to issue a mandatory safety regulation for the year is out. The Food and Drug Administration, which had prime responsibility for product safety before the commission came into being, issued a proposed safety standard for bikes before it relinquished responsibility. That proposal, now incorporated into the commission's study, included outlawing high-rise handlebars, requiring better reflectors and imposing higher standards of frame construction.
