Governor Calls For Freeze On Property Tax Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie Monday called a special session of th^iegislature to freeze real estate taxes immediately and to work for property tax reductions in 1973. V He called the special session for Nov. 26 to run concurrently with the regular session of the General Assembly. Ogilvie's action was based on the early receipt by the state government of $100 million annually from federal revenue sharing and an extra $45 million bonus this year. Cities and counties in Illinois will receive $200 million an nually in direct revenue sharing funds, plus a one-time bonus this year of $90 million additional. The U.S. Senate Friday approved the revenue sharing bill 59-19. The House gave its approval Thursday to the conference committee report which reconciled House and Senate differences. Ogilvie outlined his plans in a statement which was sent to each member of the General Assembly. He charged the legislature to: - Freeze all property taxes at present levels. -- Permit real estate tax rebates of 10 per cent or more by city, township and county governments. ~ Begin state participation in paying as much as 60 per cent of the cost of building new local schools. McClory Reports On Provision For Parochial Tuition Hie House Ways and Means committee ha& taken action to introduce a measure granting tax credits to the parents of students attending parochial and other non-public schools. The landmark legislative measure, sponsored by Democratic Congressmen Hugh Carey of New York and James Burke of Massachusetts and Republican Congressman John Byrnes of Wisconsin, would grant a tax credit of 50 percent of the tuition, or a maximum of $200 per student to parents of non-public school children. Congressman McClory declared: "This measure comes very late in the Congress, and I would not expect favorable action this year. However, the Committee vote indicates a growing awareness of the financial plight of many parochial and private schools. Some remedial legislation will probably be taken in the next Congress which convenes on January 3, 1973." Congressman McClory emphasized that there are constitutional objections which must be resolved. Also, a proliferation of small private schools - including segregated school programs - must be avoided.
