Another change in governmental organization suggested by Kraschel was creation of an independent state motor vehicle deT partment. Kraschel recommended the legislature consider again proposals of the interim committee which suggested a number of Iowa governmental reforms to the last assembly. His proposals for immediate placed in a single motor vehicle department, with an enlarged highway patrol empowered to enforce all highway traffic laws.

He asked the assembly to consider: Continuation of the sales tax, homestead tax exemption, a truck tax to finance farm to market roads, chain store taxes, payment of old age pensions from sales tax receipts, co-ordination of state farm agencies, extension of the farm mortgage moratorium, a "sufficient" appropriation for re- lief, retirement pay for teachers lation of St. John's text.

In his recommendation that the sales tax be continued, Kraschel said three-point tax receipts should be used first, to pay all eligible state old age pension applicants with the remainder "allocated exclusively to homestead tax relief."
