Flags fly at half-staff; citizens honor Marine Officials say Wooley was shooting victim BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
City of Corinth and Alcorn County officials joined together to honor a fallen United States Marine on Monday. Flags around the city and county were lowered to halfstaff in respect for Alcorn County native Jacob Wooley, who was killed in a shooting at a Virginia Marine training school on Thursday. “We need to embrace one of our own,” said alderman J.C. Hill who put the plan in motion to lower all flags Monday afternoon. “Everyone in the city and county who has been contacted agreed to do it … I think this is the honorable thing to do.” Alcorn Central High School, where Wooley attended up to his junior year, also lowered its flag Monday. “He was just a real courteous person who was an outstanding student,” said ACHS Principal Tim Littlejohn. “I want his family and friends to know our prayers are with them.” The school planned a moment of silence Tuesday morning. Two Marines were killed when a tactics instructor opened fire on his colleagues at a school that tests Marines who want to become officers. Sgt. Eusebio Lopez, 25,

Appeals court rejects motion BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Mississippi Court of Appeals has rejected a motion for rehearing by Timmy Dale Whitaker, who is serving time on aggravated assault and burglary charges out of Alcorn County. The court rejected the motion for rehearing last week. Last August, the court upheld
the convictions that occurred in Alcorn County Circuit Court in November 2010 before Judge Thomas Gardner III. According to court documents, on Aug. 5, 2008, Whitaker, 49, drove Samuel Patterson Jr. and William Danny Whitaker to the home of William Clark after they picked up a crowbar and a pipe from Patterson’s workplace. Whitaker
dropped off the two at Clark’s trailer, where they broke in and severely beat the man, taking his wallet with several hundred dollars and his telephone so that he could not call for help. Whitaker picked up the two a short time later. Clark was found the next morning by his daughter. He Please see COURT | 2

Alcorn Industries provides opportunities BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
In a metal building on Harper Road, not far from the railroad tracks, a group of Alcorn County’s most special citizens work to improve their lives and live as productive members of community. Alcorn Industries is a shelter workshop for local residents with intellectual development disabilities. At the facility, roughly 30 adult workers carry out a variety of jobs subcontracted from local industries like Caterpillar and the Coca Cola/Dr. Pepper plant. The Alcorn Industries staff also teaches the workers pre-vocational skills, basic writing, how to fill out job applications and social skills for the workplace. The facility recently held an open house that was attended by many community leaders, including Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin, local education officials, representatives from area industries, local doctors and dentists and parents of special needs students in Alcorn County schools. “We want to let people know what we do,” said Alcorn Industries Director Therray Taylor. “Our clients work.

They work very hard at what they do,” Taylor said. “They work within their limitations until they can produce the products. We see them as limitless. They can grow and grow. And they can do more than their families often think they can do.” Taylor hopes more employers in the community
will come forward to work with Alcorn Industries. “We’re really trying to make it grow, but we need more businesses,” she said. “They enjoy working more when they have a variety of things to do.” She also wants parents of special needs students to recognize Alcorn Industries as a post-high
school opportunity. “We’d love to have kids with special needs coming out of high school. They need to start early getting ready and not wait until they’re 21,” Taylor said. (For more information about partnering with Alcorn Industries call Therray Taylor at 2874015.)

Last August, the Court of Appeals did not agree with Whitaker’s arguments that the circuit court should have declared a mistrial because of comments made by prospective jurors during questioning for the jury panel; that his right to a speedy trial was violated; that the court should have suppressed the statement he made to investigators while under the influence of narcotics; and that the jury’s verdict was against the weight of evidence.

CORINTH — A Marine who was shot to death at a Virginia base was described as a warm-hearted country boy from the South who grew up in the Pentecostal church and even preached a few times. Jacob Wooley, 23, of Alcorn County, was killed on Thursday by Sgt. Eusebio Lopez at the Marine Corps Base Quantico in northern Virginia, military officials said. Lopez also shot 19-year-old Lance Cpl. Sara Castromata to death before he killed himself. The three worked at a school that tests Marines who want to become officers, but officials have not released their relationship or a motive for the shooting.
“He was fun, never had problems with anybody. Real laid back. Real nice guy.” Cpl. Josh Darling Marine Corps Their bodies were found in the Taylor Hall barracks, where those who work at the school live. The candidates for officer live elsewhere on base. Tiffany Wood said she met Wooley when they were teens. “I’m just so confused. Jacob had no enemies. He was such a sweetheart,” she said. Wood said they went to the same schools in the small town of Corinth, in northeast Mississippi near the Tennessee state line.
“He was real goofy, too, like he always wanted everybody to smile. If he could lighten a situation he would,” she said. “You couldn’t stay mad at him. He would say something to make you laugh or make you grin.” Before joining the Marines, he had preached a few times at Central Pentecostal Church, she said. “He just had a real big heart. He would help anybody that he could.” Wooley was a field radio operator. He worked at the school, which is
known for its grueling 10week program that evaluates Marines on physical stamina, intelligence and leadership. Lopez, of Pacifica, Calif., was an instructor there whose specialty was machine gunner. Castromata, of Oakley, Calif., was a warehouse clerk. Wooley had always wanted to be a Marine. He joined in February 2010. “He loved the Marines. I have friends that have joined and they hate it. But it was his passion to help people,” Wood said. Lance Cpl. Ian Mills, who served with Wooley on the Japanese island of Okinawa, said they remained close despite being assigned to different bases. “Everybody hated Oki
because they missed their families, but he was the guy who made us a family,” said Mills, now at Twentynine Palms in California. “He brought us all together. He was always so loving and caring about everybody.” Cpl. Josh Darling said he grew up in Tennessee about 40 minutes from Wooley’s hometown. He said Wooley was athletic, smart and liked to sing country music. “He was fun, never had problems with anybody. Real laid back. Real nice guy,” Darling said. Wooley’s great-aunt Jean Luker said after high school, Wooley went to Northeast Mississippi Community College and then the Marines. “He was a very sweet young man,” she said.
Dems call for better Farmington increases sewer rates education funding BY STEVE BEAVERS
sbeavers@dailycorinthian. com
Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi Democrats on Monday renewed their calls for more education funding in the state budget. At a meeting billed as a “Democratic Public Hearing,” Rep. Rufus Straughter, D-Belzoni, lamented the consistent gaps between education funding determined by the Mississippi Adequate Education Program and what has been approved by the state legislature. He said that lawmakers’ debates about charter schools are a distraction from the state’s education funding crisis. “The sad thing is that they make it seem like charter schools will solve our problems,” Straughter said. “Charter schools will not solve our problems.” Rep. John Hines, DGreenville, presented data from the Mississippi Department of Education showing that schools in the state have been cumulatively underfunded by more than $962 million since fiscal year 2009. Statewide, he said Mississippi could have employed more than 4,000 teachers with five-year salaries, or purchased nearly 20,000 school buses with the missing funds. Due to the recession, the state cut hundreds of millions of dollars out of education beginning in the 2008 budget year, when it put $2.2 billion

FARMINGTON — Citizens of Farmington will see an increase in the sewer utility rate beginning Monday. The basic rate for customers will go from $21 to $23 per 2,000 gallons, according to town mayor Dale Fortenberry. A charge of $5.50 per 1,000 for the next 3,000 gallons and $4.50 per 1,000 for the remainder of usage
into K12 education. A joint legislative budget committee approved a $97 million increase to the state budget last Thursday. But even if lawmakers put all of that money into education, schools would only get $2.1 billion in 2014, and that doesn’t account for increased pension costs imposed in recent years. Rep. Cecil Brown, DJackson, argued that the state can’t wait for residents’ income to rise to provide more funding for education. He said without quality education, the state economy won’t grow. Brown added that Democrats are only asking for a reasonable amount of education funding. “This is not a Cadillac program,” Brown said. “This is not Harvard or Yale. This is not the best there is, and it’s certainly not the worst there is. But the legislature said, when this program was adopted, that we want to provide enough funds so that every child in Mississippi has access to an adequate education.”

has also been instituted by the town. “This is something that had to be done,” said Fortenberry. “When the rates were set before, there wasn’t enough profit built in to absorb the increase.” Farmington’s Board of Aldermen voted unanimously to increase the rates at its March 19 meeting. “Myself and the board didn’t take this lightly,” said the mayor. “The price of everything is so much

Important bills now in conference committees BY NICK BAIN State Representative
If first impressions were always true, it would seem that nothing much was happening at the State Capitol last week. However, in addition to taking some floor votes, the very important process of assigning conference committee members was also underway. These members iron out the differences between the House and Senate versions of the same measures. This session has produced many bills that need agreement. We are now heading into “Conference Weekend” when the final versions of the measures are due to be completed. Members will be working either in conference committees, or be on call to vote over the Easter weekend this year, timing which happens rarely during legislative sessions. A number of important measures will become law without further action. I sponsored a bill that will allow law enforcement personnel the opportunity to receive mandated training earlier. House Bill 1485 passed the House and Senate unanimously and was signed by the governor on March 21. We believe this step will help ensure the safety of our law enforcement officers and enhance protection of our citizens. Previously, some full-time officers had to serve as long as two years before being provided this vital training. For the first time, Mississippi is poised to gather complete information on our homeless citizens so that we can determine best how to serve them in their time of need. National statistics show an alarming number of our veterans are now homeless, and more and more families with children are without permanent shelter. I carried House Bill 482 to the floor of the House where it passed 109-7. The Senate approved it, and it has gone to the governor for his signature. The measure establishes the Mississippi Interagency Council on Homelessness which is the first step in getting our arms around this troubling issue. The purpose of the council is to establish, develop and implement a plan to reduce homelessness that includes a strong focus on the needs of homeless children, youth and families, as well as individuals and veterans who are homeless. Now, the various service agencies will have a resource and communication tool as they seek to help the most unfortunate among us. I reported earlier this session I would introduce a bill to provide counties the right to opt out of a requirement to install additional justice court judges and constables, triggered by an increase in county population. Many of us here in Alcorn County believe we are well served by the present system, and do not need the extra expense of additional offices. I was lead author on House Bill 1568 which passed our chamber 117-0 and was co-sponsored by my fellow Alcorn County representatives. The bill was allowed to die in the Senate Judiciary A Committee. That meant we had to be creative to get it included in this session’s laws. I brought forth an amendment to insert the measure into Senate Bill 2739, and it passed the House on a voice vote. The Senate declined to concur, and the bill is now in conference. You can follow its progress on our web site at www. legislature.ms.gov. Another important bill for our area is House Bill 1015 which includes a provision mandating that a drivers license substation will be open at least once per month in every county seat in Mississippi. This measure is in conference. We believe closing these substations a few years ago placed an undue hardship on individuals in rural areas. I hope this provision stays in the final version of the bill. Two bills that didn’t pass the Senate, even though they are very popular ideas with the public, are House Bill 499 to do away with the requirement for vehicle inspection stickers and House Bill 376 which sought to raise the speed limit to 75 on restrictedaccess highways. Both measures had broad bi-partisan support in the House. I expect these two issues will be revisited next session, perhaps with a better outcome. It was my pleasure to welcome fellow Alcorn Central alum and Ole Miss student Trevor Smith to the Capitol as a member of the Chancellor’s Leadership Class. These young people are great representatives of the university, and Trevor is a great representative of Corinth. We will be expecting more outstanding achievements from him in the future. On Thursday, March 21, I attended an awards dinner sponsored by the American Council of Engineering Companies. Alcorn County’s own Cook-Coggin Engineers, Inc. received an award for engineering excellence for their work on the Kimberly-Clark access road. Congratulations for a job well done!

GOP must show support for Hispanic dreams BY MICHAEL BARONE Columnist
Rarely does a political party issue a document so scathingly critical of itself and its most recent presidential nominee as the report of the five-member Growth and Opportunity Project of the Republican National Committee. It refers to Mitt Romney on occasion as “our presidential nominee” and notes disapprovingly of his reference, in the debate about immigration, to “self-deportation.” And while the report states modestly, “We are not a policy committee,” it does call for a policy -- “comprehensive immigration reform” -- that many, perhaps most, Republican members of Congress oppose. I think there’s some risk here for the Republican National Committee. But there also may be some reward for Republicans generally. The risk is of turning off officeholders and voters Republicans need to win elections and prevail on issues. The reward is Republicans might be able to win some elections they’d otherwise lose.
“If Hispanic Americans perceive that a GOP nominee or candidate does not want them in the United States (i.e., self-deportation), they will not pay attention to our next sentence,” the report says. “It does not matter what we say about education, jobs or the economy; if Hispanics think we do not want them here, they will close their ears to our advice.” To this they contrast George W. Bush’s 2000 and 2004 campaign refrain: “Family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande, and a hungry mother is going to feed her child.” Let me put it another way. To win someone’s vote, you need to be friendly to them and those they identify with. My observation in travel over the years is that Hispanics are treated very differently by Anglos in Texas than in California. In Texas, white Anglos see people with Hispanic features as fellow Texans. They know, because they have to take Texas history in high school, that Hispanics have been living in Texas for more than 200 years and that some fought
for Texas independence against Mexico. In California, white Anglos, liberal or conservative, treat people with Hispanic features as landscape workers or parking valet attendants. They look past them without speaking. George W. Bush’s words about family values enabled him to win about 40 percent of Hispanic votes in 2004. As for Romney, when he said “self-deportation,” he was actually describing something real. The folks at the Pew Hispanic Center have concluded that net migration from Mexico to the U.S. fell to around zero in 2007. There may have been more reverse migration than inward migration since then. But “self-deportation” and “reverse migration” are cold, abstract terms. Politicians need to look beneath unfeeling statistics for the effect on the lives of actual human beings. And when you look at the RealtyTrac numbers of foreclosures in the peak years of 2007 and 2010, you find that a majority were in four states -- California, Nevada, Arizona and Florida.
You’re looking at tens of thousands of Hispanic homebuyers who were granted mortgages with little or no money down and that proved to be far beyond their capacity to service when housing crashed and the construction industry shut down. Many gave up on the U.S. and moved back to Mexico. Republicans can perhaps gain entree with Hispanic voters by supporting comprehensive immigration reform. At the very least, they need to avoid approaching this issue with the angry hostility you hear from too many callers on talk radio. But they also need to show an understanding of the realities these people are facing. They need to show them how their policies can help them achieve their dreams. The RNC report is not a bad start. (Daily Corinthian columnist Michael Barone, senior political analyst for The Washington Examiner, is a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a Fox News Channel contributor and a coauthor of The Almanac of American Politics.)
Where is modern-day ‘new ideas’ Jack Kemp? The harsh assessment of the RNC “autopsy” committee would be that it talked to 2,600 people, yet one of its top proposals is reviving a minority inclusion council from the 1990s. It takes months of research to come up with this stuff? There are inherent limits to any such exercise. The party is not going to be saved by committee. The autopsy inevitably reflects the lowest common denominator of establishment Republican thinking on policy, recommending comprehensive immigration reform and hinting at surrender on gay marriage. It is more interesting and useful when suggesting process changes, especially fewer primary debates. The RNC autopsy has stirred up another round in an intraparty debate that is yeasty and entertaining, and will surely prove largely irrelevant to the Republican future. One facet of that ongoing debate is the fight between the grass roots and the establishment over Senate primaries, which has been raging for months and got more fuel when speakers
at the annual conservative gathering, the Conservative Political Action ConferRich ence, savaged Lowery the Republican consulNational class. Review tant Rarely has so much heat been generated with so little light. Some of the same grassroots conservative leaders banging on the consultants believed that Christine O’Donnell would sweep to victory in the Delaware Senate race in 2010. Every time they are about to congratulate themselves on their electoral acuity, they should have to listen to three hours of floor speeches by Delaware’s senator for life, Democrat Chris Coons. On the other hand, the establishment was eager to deliver a Florida Senate seat to Charlie Crist, who is as real as a spray-on tan and as appealing as a cheesy billboard for legal services. The important question isn’t so much establishment or grass roots as it is who
and where. Mike Lee isn’t Christine O’Donnell, and Utah isn’t Delaware. So he actually won his 2010 race. Consider Ted Cruz of Texas, whose smarts and fearlessness are making him the most dangerous man in the U.S. Senate. He proves that you can be anti-establishment and yet talented and electable. So much depends on political horseflesh. Mitt Romney may have been wounded by the 20-odd debates, but he agreed to so many of them in the first place because he was a weak frontrunner fearful of crossing primary voters. If Romney had been granted the Republican nomination with no competition whatsoever, he still would have been a politically inartful former management consultant. And so much depends on substance. No “rebranding” will make a difference if Republican policy is not relevant to people’s lives. What the party desperately needs more than different marketing or new consultants are a few Jack Kemps, political entrepreneurs willing to ignore orthodoxies and evangelize for new ideas.
Kemp did his most important work as a backbencher in the House. Where is his equivalent today? Two possible Republican contenders in 2016 have demonstrated some of his spirit. No committee ever would have come up with the idea for Rand Paul’s filibuster. It showed gumption and creativity, and it caught people’s imagination. But it was in a cause -- preventing drone attacks on U.S. citizens -- that is not pertinent to the everyday life of anyone not on the run in Yemen. For his part, Rubio has begun to talk about college affordability, an issue that should be part of a new conservative agenda aimed at concrete middle-class concerns. All the action, though, is around Rubio’s other cause of comprehensive immigration reform. The Republican Party can study itself to death, but without some Jack Kemps, it will remain in its current stasis for the duration.

Hurricanes offer lessons for builders NEW ORLEANS — Lessons learned from Hurricane Sandy about how best to limit damage to buildings closely track those of Katrina, a federal engineer said Monday. Elevating generators and pumps is a good idea but enclosing elevated foundations that might be hit by waves or wave-borne debris can cause problems. John Ingargiola, a structural engineer for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said the final report on Sandy is scheduled in the fall. But FEMA is releasing seven advisories for rebuilding and minimizing future flood damage for new construction, plus a fact sheet about cleaning and drying buildings. Ingargiola’s comments came during an early workshop at the National Hurricane Conference in New Orleans. Photographs he showed from Sandy’s destruction looked very much like those after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005: houses washed from their slabs or collapsed into their foundations, and critical equipment such as generators or switches flooded on ground floors or in basements. “I think, together as a community, we need to think of ways to collaborate and get the message out” about storm-resistant construction, Ingargiola said. After the session, he noted that Katrina’s lessons were similar to those of Florida after Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Florida had a mishmash of local construction standards before Andrew destroyed neighborhoods south of Miami but imposed statewide regulations afterward and did much better in the storms of 2004-05, he said.
Worker: Training saved lives after blowout NEW ORLEANS — A Transocean employee who served as chief mate on the Deepwater Horizon testified Monday that he believes the rig crew’s emergency training saved lives following the 2010 explosion that killed 11
workers and triggered the nation’s worst offshore oil spill. David Young, who was second-in-command to the rig’s captain, said he believes 115 workers managed to escape the burning rig that BP had leased from Transocean because they followed their training. “What would you say the top priority of the Deepwater Horizon crew was?” Transocean attorney Luis Li asked at the start of the fifth week of a federal trial over the disaster. “For everybody to be able to go home safely back to their families,” said Young, a witness called by his employer, a Swiss-based drilling company. Young, now the captain on a different Transoceanowned rig in the Gulf, said he believes the rig’s crew had an excellent safety culture. But plaintiffs’ attorneys have accused BP and its contractors of sacrificing safety and cutting corners in a rush to complete a project that was behind schedule and millions of dollars over budget at the time of the April 20, 2010, blowout. Marine safety expert Geoff Webster, a witness for the plaintiffs, testified earlier this month that he believes Transocean failed to properly maintain the Deepwater Horizon or adequately train its crew members.
Scant progress on jobs for disabled WASHINGTON — Whether it means opening school track meets to deaf children or developing a new lunch menu with safe alternatives for students with food allergies, recent Obama administration decisions could significantly affect Americans with disabilities. But there’s been little progress in one of the most stubborn challenges: employing the disabled. According to government labor data, of the 29 million working-age Americans with a disability — those who are 16 years and older — 5.2 million are employed. That’s 18 percent of the disabled population and is down from 20 percent
The White House (Formerly Colonial Design)
State Briefs
four years ago. The employment rate for people without a disability was 63 percent in February. The job numbers for the disabled haven’t budged much since the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, which gave millions of disabled people civil rights protections and guaranteed equal opportunity in employment, public accommodations, transportation, government services and more. The National Council on Disability’s Jeff Rosen said longstanding prejudicial attitudes need to be addressed to boost jobs.

GOP lawmaker found dead MENDENHALL — The chief of police in Mendenhall says there’s nothing to suggest that the death of state Rep. Jessica Upshaw was anything other a suicide. Upshaw’s body was found Sunday at the home of Clint Rotenberry, a former Republican state representative. Upshaw, a 53-yearold Republican from Diamondhead on the Mississippi coast, died of a gunshot wound to the head. Police Chief Candy McCullum tells The Associated Press that Upshaw’s body was found on concrete near the garage. McCullum says she had a gunshot wound to the head from what is believed to be a .40-caliber pistol. McCullum says he called the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation when Upshaw was identified as a state representative. The investigation is continuing. Funeral services are pending. Upshaw is survived by a daughter and grandchild.
High court takes on affirmative action case WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court’s decision to hear a new case from Michigan on the politically charged issue of affirmative action offers an intriguing hint that the justices will not use a separate challenge already pending from Texas for a broad ruling bringing an end to the consideration of race in college admissions. To be sure, the two cases involve different legal issues. The University of Texas dispute, with arguments already completed and a ruling possible soon, centers on the use of race to fill some slots in the school’s freshman classes. The Michigan case asks whether a voter-approved ban on affirmative action in college admissions can itself violate the Constitution. But the broadest possible outcome in the current Texas case — overruling the court’s 2003 decision that allows race as a factor in college admissions — would mean an end to affirmative action in higher education and render the new Michigan lawsuit irrelevant. If the justices are planning to overrule that earlier decision, “then I would think they would hold this case,” the new one, and order lower courts to review it based on the Texas decision, said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at the University of California at Irvine. He is representing students and faculty members in the Michigan case.
Lillie Ayers dead at the age of 85 JACKSON — Lillie B. Ayers, who became the lead plaintiff in Mississippi’s college desegregation lawsuit after the death of her husband, has died at her home in Glen Allan. She was 85. Henry Ayers, Lillie Ayers’ son, said his mother died early Sunday at her home in Glen Allan in Washington County. He says she died of complications from bone cancer. Funeral services are pending. Jake Ayers Sr. died in 1986, six years before the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Mississippi hadn’t done enough to eliminate segregation at its universities. Ayers filed the lawsuit against the state’s university system in 1975. It cited inequitable funding for the state’s three predominantly black universities — Jackson State, Alcorn State in Lorman and Mississippi Valley State in Itta Bena.

Manning denied appeal by Court JACKSON — The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from Mississippi death row inmate Willie Jerome Manning. Manning asked U.S. Supreme Court in December to listen to his arguments for a new trial. The court declined Monday without comment. Attorney General Jim Hood later Monday asked the Mississippi Supreme Court to set an execution date for Manning. In his motion, Hood asked the court to set the date of execution for April 24. “It is the state’s position that the denial of the petition ... brings to a conclusion the challenges by Manning in state and federal courts to his sentence of death,” Hood said in the motion. The 5th Circuit said under state law, Manning had until April 5, 2000, to file a post-conviction petition. Court records show Manning did not file anything with the Mississippi Supreme Court until Oct. 8, 2001. Manning, now 44, received two death sentences for the 1992 slayings of two Mississippi State University students, Jon Steckler and Tiffany Miller. On Dec. 11, 1992, the bodies of Miller and Steckler were discovered in rural Oktibbeha County. Both students had been shot to death, and Miller’s car was missing. The vehicle was found the next morning. Prosecutors said Manning was arrested after he attempted to sell certain items belonging to the victims. Manning has another appeal pending in Oktibbeha County Circuit Court in a separate death pen-
alty case. Manning was convicted in 1996 for the killings of Emmoline Jimmerson, 90, and Alberta Jordan, about 60, in Starkville. The women were beaten and their throats slashed during a robbery attempt in 1993. The Supreme Court upheld his two death sentences in 2000.
Bomgar named to state education board JACKSON — A leading proponent of charter schools may be joining the state Board of Education. House Speaker Philip Gunn has appointed Joel Bomgar to the board, pending Senate confirmation. Bomgar is founder and CEO of software maker Bomgar Corp. of Ridgeland. He also heads of Better Education for Mississippi, a group of Republican-linked business leaders pushing for charter schools. Bomgar would replace Martha “Jackie” Murphy, whose term expires at June’s end. If confirmed, Bomgar’s term would begin July 1 and run through June 30, 2022. Murphy, of Rienzi, was appointed by former House Speaker Billy McCoy, a Democrat. The board oversees educational policy for Mississippi’s 151 school districts. Though Bomgar supports charter schools, plans now being considered by the Legislature would create a separate board to authorize and oversee such schools.
Life of Medgar Evers being commemorated JACKSON — The Mississippi Department of Archives and History commemorates the 50th anniversary of the slaying of civil rights leader Medgar Evers with the opening of a new in Jackson on May 1 with Evers’ widow, Myrlie Evers Williams. “This Is Home: Medgar Evers, Mississippi and the Movement” will include photographs, artifacts, documents and news film footage from the MDAH collection. The exhibit will cover Evers’ early life and family, his career with the NAACP and his death.

A settlement was finally approved in 2004 when appeals were exhausted. Lillie Ayers had initially tried to opt out of the settlement. but her efforts were denied by the courts. She told The Associated Press in a 2001 interview that the settlement “doesn’t address the intent of my husband’s lawsuit.” “It’s not about money,” she said. “It’s about equality.”

Bernanke: interest rate benefits trade WASHINGTON — Chairman Ben Bernanke said Monday that the Federal Reserve’s low-interest-rate policies are helping to boost growth around the world, rejecting criticism that they could lead to a global currency war. In a speech at the London School of Economics, Bernanke staunchly defended the Fed’s policies and similar stimulus efforts pursued by other central banks since the 2008 financial crisis. Last week, the Fed stood by its policies to keep borrowing costs at record lows, saying the U.S. economy still required the support to help lower high unemployment. Critics have argued that the low-interestrate policies could lower a country’s currency value and make its products more competitive on global markets.
High court tickets cost time, money WASHINGTON — The most expensive ticket to “The Book of Mormon” on Broadway: $477. The face value of a great seat for this year’s Super Bowl: $1,250. Guaranteed seats to watch the U.S. Supreme Court hear this week’s gay marriage cases: about $6,000. Tickets to the two arguments that begin Tuesday are technically free. But getting them requires lining up days or hours ahead, or paying someone else to. The first people got in line Thursday, bringing the price of saving a seat to around $6,000. For some, putting a value on the seats is meaningless. “It’s just not possible,” said Fred Sainz a spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay rights organization, which began employing two people to stand in line Thursday. The court will hear arguments Tuesday over California’s ban on same-sex marriage. On Wednesday, the court will take up the federal Defense of Marriage Act, the 1996 federal law that defines marriage as between one man and one woman. Supporters and opponents of same-sex marriage say the cases are so
potentially historic that they want to be inside the courtroom to watch, no matter what the cost in time or money. Part of the reason the seats are so coveted is the court doesn’t allow TV broadcasts of its arguments, so coming in person is the only way to see the justices at work. The court has said it will release transcripts of the hearings as well as audio recordings roughly two hours after each case ends, but advocates say that’s no substitute for being there. Seats, meanwhile, are at a premium because there aren’t that many. The courtroom seats about 500 people, but seats are reserved for court staff, journalists and guests of the justices and lawyers arguing the case. After those people are seated, there will be about 100 seats Tuesday for lawyers who are members of the Supreme Court bar and at least 60 seats for the general public. An additional 30 seats for the public will rotate every three to five minutes. Tickets for all those seats are handed out on a first come, first served basis. For the most controversial cases, the line to get those tickets can start to form about a day before. When the court heard three days of arguments on health care last year, the first people arrived three days early. This time, the line started even earlier. By Monday morning there were more than three dozen people waiting, even as snow was falling. Several in the line said they were being paid, while others included college students and a substitute teacher. People in line said they passed the time talking and reading.
Democratic budget extends GOP standoff WASHINGTON — An exhausted Senate gave pre-dawn approval Saturday to a Democratic $3.7 trillion budget for next year that embraces nearly $1 trillion in tax increases over the coming decade but shelters domestic programs targeted for cuts by House Republicans. While their victory was by a razor-thin 50-49 vote, it allowed Democrats to tout their priorities. Yet it doesn’t resolve the deep differences the two parties have over deficits and the size of government. White House spokesman Jay Carney praised the Senate plan, saying in a statement it “will create jobs and cut the deficit in a balanced way.”

Raising backyard birds requires planning, time BY KERI COLLINS LEWIS MSU Ag Communications
MISSISSIPPI STATE — In response to the increasing popularity of raising chickens for eggs and meat, Mississippi State University Extension experts are offering tips for people interested in starting their own flock of backyard birds. Tom Tabler, MSU Extension Service poultry specialist, said chickens are a great project, as long as everyone involved understands what they are signing on for. “I like to talk about poultry as a livestock, and if you’re going to raise livestock, it’s a good starter project,” he said. “You have lower start-up costs and easier care. It’s not a cake-walk, but kids can learn responsibility and how to care for animals properly.” In addition to learning about costs and time involved, Tabler said people should research chicken breeds, because different breeds are suited to different purposes. For example, someone interested in egg production would not need any roosters, and might consider Leghorns, which are productive layers. If meat production is the goal, other breeds, such as Cornish, are better suited for that purpose. Cochins and some Bantam breeds are considered more docile and thus better for small children interested in having a pet. Ameraucana hens lay colorful eggs but do not lay abundantly.

the flocks have been tested for diseases.” Wells said backyard bird enthusiasts who do not purchase from statecertified growers should buy from a reputable hatchery that is National Poultry Improvement Plan certified. “This route may be more expensive than buying from your neighbor or at the flea market, but
it will pay off in the long run by yielding a happy, healthy flock,” she said. Chickens are vulnerable to predators, such as wild animals and family pets, and a pen is needed to keep them safe. A pen is the largest investment backyard birds require, but they don’t have to be expensive, just secure. “Cats, dogs, raccoons, coyotes, possums, foxes,
Mississippi State to offer some degrees in 3 years BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi State University is joining the ranks of schools nationwide saying students can earn undergraduate degrees in three years. Starting this fall, the university will lay out paths for students who want to speed up their time to graduation. It’s also altering scholarships to ensure they will support the path. Unlike some schools, 20,000-student MSU is not cutting the number of credit hours required to earn a degree. Instead, it’s saying students should study in the summers to accelerate graduation. That means students may not save much on tuition, which runs $6,264 for a two-semester year for in-state undergraduates. But they could avoid the $5,000 or more that it can cost to rent a dorm room or apartment in Starkville. Among 23 three-year programs being planned are three in agriculture, three in arts and sciences, three in business and 14 in education. Officials say the best candidates are those who enter MSU with college credits already in hand from advanced placement or dual enrollment in high school, or who pass exams to earn college-level credit once they enter the university. Mississippi State University Provost Jerry Gilbert said MSU examined courses it was already offering in the summer to figure out which degrees could be sped up. He said some fields of study, like engineering, weren’t possible. “It’s a repackaging and ordering of courses that we normally have in a curriculum,” Gilbert said. The university says it’s the first school it knows of in Mississippi to offer such a route. Critics of three-year degree programs say they benefit only a sliver of motivated and well-prepared students, such as those who have earned Advanced
Placement or other college credits in high school and can afford to attend yearround without working in the summer. “Beneficiaries of the degree are limited to students who largely come from affluent households, whose parents attended college, who are likely Caucasian, and who have a laser-like career focus and the discipline required to succeed in full-time, non-stop college studies,” wrote Daniel Hurley, of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, in 2011. Gilbert said that at least for such students, they will have an option. “It’s really for a student that’s highly motivated,” Gilbert said. “Less than 50 students (a year) is what we think will opt for this.” Mississippi State officials couldn’t find any students currently attempting their degree in three years at the school when asked by The Associated Press.
“Beneficiaries of the degree are limited to students who largely come from affluent households, whose parents attended college, who are likely Caucasian, and who have a laser-like career focus and the discipline required to succeed in fulltime, non-stop college studies.” Daniel Hurley American Association of State Colleges and Universities Only about 30 percent of Mississippi State students today finish a degree in four years. Students take an average of 14.3 credit hours a semester. To finish in three years, a student would have to take 15 hours each semester and each summer, with more classes than that in one or two semesters, to reach 124 hours. Some schools, mainly private colleges, have pared down the number of credits needed for a degree to roughly 90 hours, mean-
ing students can graduate in three years and still take summers off. Gilbert, though, said MSU officials viewed coursework reduction as “kind of radical.” Key to staying on target will be good advising for students, he said. MSU plans to set up an advising guide for each major where a three-year plan will be available. High school students will also be able to contact the university for guidance on how to prepare.

hawks and other flying predators will see your chickens as an easy and free meal if you don’t have a proper structure that provides protection from every angle,” Wells said. “Remember that animals can come in from the sides, top or bottom of the pen, and predators come in all sizes.” Wells said growers can find a variety of poultry pen

plans online, but readymade options exist too. “If you don’t want to construct your own pen, a simple chain-link dog pen can be used, as long as the top is secured. This can be something as simple as a tarp,” she said. “Nest boxes should be built out of a solid material on the pen’s back side.” Keeping the pens clean will help keep chickens healthy. “Regular maintenance keeps fecal material low, fly populations down, and feed from being spilled and spoiling, which in turn cuts down on rodents,” Wells said. Chickens may snack on insects that wander through the yard, but they must have a nutritious feed to keep up their weight and regularly produce eggs. “I don’t recommend trying to mix your own feed,” Wells said. “Pre-mixed feeds have all the ingredients the birds need, at the right levels. People think they can feed food scraps or chicken scratch and save money on feed costs, but if the birds fill up on scraps and scratch before being fed normal chicken feed, they don’t benefit from the feed’s nutrition.” The bottom line is that raising chickens is work, but if done correctly from the beginning, it can be fun and fulfilling. “If you don’t provide proper care and management, neither you nor your birds will be happy,” Tabler said.

Christ’s Word is Permanent “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but no word shall not pass away.” - Matt. 24:35. Mark’s word seems to be such a trifling thing to set in contrast with the mighty universe; yet Jesus declares that His word is more enduring than Heaven and earth. His statement should cause us to stop and think. We might need to revise our ideas. How can this thing be? The first impression that the earth gives is that if solidity and permanence. The fields, the plains, the giant rocks, the towering mountains - all give us the ideas of objects that shall stand forever. From the earth we desire our substance. Here we build our dwelling house. Upon the earth we walk with a sense of security. Since the dawn of history, countless millions have lived and passed into the great beyond, but the earth continues to stand. Generally speaking, words are about the most trifling of all things. Why? They are spoken, given little or no consideration--then forgotten. Written words are more enduring than spoken words, but written words also perish. Great libraries soon become musty and decay. Each generation has its authors and books, but these for the most part are soon forgotten. Words--myriads of them are spoken every hour and most of them die the moment they are spoken. Jesus of Nazareth, calmly and deliberately sets forth His words- “Shall Never Pass Away” over against the mighty fabric which He calls “heaven and earth.” We must consider Him who gave utterance to the remarkable statement. Many knew so little about Jesus. He was from a peasant’s home in an obscure village in the little promise of Galilee. The first 30 years of life were spent in seclusion. He obtained no education in a college or university. The philosophers of His day did not know Him; the great thinkers among the Greeks and Romans never heard of Him. He never wrote a book. After a ministry of about 3 years, most of His disciples deserted him and the leaders of His own nation rejected Him. He was put to death as a criminal and buried in a borrowed tomb. He was without wealth, without a home, without prestige, without friends when He faced the crisis. Such a man dared to say, “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” “He is the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him.” - Heb. 5:9. His words are righteous - man can become righteous by obeying His words. - Psalms 145:17

Economists expect that the annual rate of new home sales slowed in February from a month earlier. Sales in January jumped to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 437,000. It was the highest level since July 2008 and further evidence that the housing recovery is accelerating. Even so, new-home sales are still well below the 700,000 annual level that economists consider healthy. The latest sales figures are out today.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian There will be a special meeting between the City of Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen, Alcorn County Board of Supervisors and Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau Board of Directors at 4 p.m. today. Staff Writer/Photographer Jebb Johnston will be attending. Read his story coming Wednesday as these groups work together on tourism budgeting issues.
Man hesitates before he makes commitment to messy marriage DEAR ABBY: “Rita” and I have been together three years and are getting ready to make the final commitment of marriage. My problem is that she’s a slob. Rita isn’t a “hoarder,” but she does things like take the plastic off a package and drop it on the floor. (Don’t get me started on the mess she leaves in the bathroom.) I love her and would be willing to have separate bathrooms if that’s what it takes. But I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in a house that looks the way hers does right now. The thought of raising kids in that kind of atmosphere chills me. I’m no neat freak, but at least I put my trash in the wastebasket. Rita gets offended if I raise the issue. I have offered to help her clean her house, but I don’t want to nag because her mother already does, and it makes Rita respond like a defiant child. Have you any ideas about what I can do to keep our relationship — and hopefully our future — intact? — WHATEVER RITA WANTS DEAR WHATEVER: It appears your girlfriend wants to continue living exactly the way she is. Because she becomes defensive at the suggestion that she make a better effort, accept that you are not going to change her. She obviously has many good qualities or your relationship would not have made it this
far. T h e r e is help for people who are disorganized and sloppy, but only if they Abigail are willing to that Van Buren accept they need it. Some Dear Abby people have successfully used a system originated by Marla Cilley, aka the FlyLady. (”Fly” stands for “Finally Loving Yourself.”) To find out more about her system, visit www. flylady.net and click on “Get Started.” DEAR ABBY: I’m stuck in a dead-end job that doesn’t pay much money, so I have to rely on help from my parents. I’d like to return to school for my master’s, but a lack of funds and mild depression keep pulling me back. I told my mother about how I have been feeling, hoping for reassurance — just a general, “Everything is going to get better.” This is a woman who has longed for me to get married and have children, which I thought was no different than most mothers. I now realize I was wrong. Her motivation speech was: “You have always been beautiful and I want you to see it. Don’t you know that you’re good
enough to become a rich man’s wife?” Now I realize that being a rich man’s wife is what she always wanted for me. I always thought I could be more than that and support myself without the need of a man. I also believed I could one day be a writer. Independence has always been important to me, and I would never marry unless I was. Now, however, my self-esteem is shot, and since I can’t afford therapy, I feel my mother’s plan is probably the only thing I can hope for. How can I improve my self-esteem so I can make the right decision? — DEPRESSED IN LEWISVILLE, TEXAS DEAR DEPRESSED: A good first step would be to stop listening to your mother. Live your own life, and now that you know what poor judgment she has, make your own decisions about the path you will follow. A suggestion: Write the story down and be sure to mention how you persisted in spite of your mother’s advice. You may find inspiration in your own words. And if it’s published, so might others. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Some won’t want to poke around too much, believing it’s better to leave well enough alone. But you’re in the mood to stir things up. You want to know whether “well enough” could actually turn into “awesome.” TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Reach out to an unlikely candidate, and you’ll likely make an interesting connection and possibly have a brilliant conversation, too. It’s all part of your plan to master the art of living. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You prefer not to take sides when you don’t have to. Just because you’re diplomatic doesn’t mean you’re duplicitous. Neutrality is possible, if only for a limited time. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are hurting people in your midst. You want to make another person feel better, but you don’t know how. You really don’t have to worry about what to say. Your kind intentions will be felt.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Sometimes strangers meeting for the first time will act like people they are not. That’s why anyone meeting you for the first time today will be in for a refreshing change. You give it straight. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have everything you need to succeed today. You are creative, intelligent and well versed in the ways of the world. Power and money are not the aim; they are just a couple of the bartering tools you’ll use. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The timing of events that do not come off as planned will be perfect nonetheless. A moment sooner or later would have produced entirely different results. Be thankful for your peculiar sense about these things. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You may think that what you’re doing with the afternoon hours is insignificant, but if you didn’t do it, there would be unforeseeable losses. We depend on one another.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you’re among people who are trying to act cool, the best gift you could give is a foolish gesture to break the ice and bring everyone back to their humanity. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you’re not in the mood to give, don’t give. Only that which you do freely will make a difference today. Better to do nothing and consolidate your powers than to waste your efforts by scattering them to the wind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To move forward with a relationship, misunderstandings and misperceptions need to be cleared up first. You’ll do a brave thing: ask for candid feedback and calmly hear it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Many are jumping on a bandwagon that’s headed for a dead end or possibly a cliff. Be discerning. Ask a lot of questions. Those who don’t want to answer questions are hiding something.

Lady Warriors fall short at Mooreville BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com
MOOREVILLE — The Lady Warriors fell just short of a win, as the Mooreville Troopers staged a comeback in the final inning of the 6-5 loss. Portia Patterson’s groundout single staged the first score of the game by Stennett Smith, with a second ground ball from Bailee Kramer put-
ting the Warriors up 2-0 on a run from Anna Kayte Webb. Smith, who threw 23 strikes at first pitch, sat down the sixth batter for Mooreville after Webb caught a line drive in right field while Colby Cox and Katie Vandiver combined at short stop and third base for another. With a quick second inning, Webb’s sacrifice hit sent
Smith to third base, but it took an error from the Troopers at third base for Kramer to reach first and Smith to score the third run for the Warriors. Mooreville put up a run of their own with the fifth batter, a single from Kelly Minga and an error in left field by the Warriors placing Miah Edmonds over home plate. Both teams would hit three
outs across four batters in the fourth inning, and Smith would sit down three Troopers in the fifth and sixth innings for Corinth. Rebekah Williams punched in an extra run for the Warriors in the seventh inning, and Portia Patterson’s sacrifice bunt provided a fifth run Please see WARRIORS | 13

Cutts was recently named the Mississippi Association of Community/Junior Colleges (MACJC) Softball Player of the Week. Recent weather has forced postponements in softball (Tuesday), baseball (Monday) and tennis (Monday) on the local JUCO front.

Biggersville drops contest to Falkner eagles BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com
FALKNER — A four run inning sealed the date of the Biggersville Lions as they fell to the Falkner Eagles 8-3 in a Division 1-1A baseball contest. The Lions struck gold first, with Jordan Davis batting a single for Peyton Nash to run home at the top of the first in-

Falkner. Tanner Holloway provided the final run, an up the middle drive for Kitchens trip to home plate. With a 3-0 lead, the Eagles posted two runs to close out the third inning, and added six others in the fourth and fifth. The Lions see action again today as they travel to Jump-

Best and worst of NCAA tournament’s 1st weekend Associated Press
Florida Gulf Coast was the breakout star of the weekend, alley-ooping its way on to the national stage to capture everyone’s attention. You probably watched the Eagles crash the round of 16 like everyone else. Well, there were 63 other teams playing last weekend, too. La Salle broke through as well. Bluebloods such as Duke
and Michigan State were big winners as well. So the next round will have something for everyone. Now the Eagles, and the rest of the country, get to take a deep breath before we get going again on Thursday. So here is a look at some of the highs and lows from a memorable first weekend. ■ BEST PLAY: Brett Comer to Chase Fieler vs. George-
town. The exclamation on Florida Gulf Coast’s emphatic introduction to the masses. It was brazen not only for the casual nature with which Comer flipped the ball practically over his head to a soaring Fieler, but also in its timing. The Hoyas were making one final charge, down seven points with two minutes to play when Comer made a pass usually reserved for
dunk contests. Fieler threw it down one-handed, and the Eagles rolled to the victory. ■ BEST GUTS: Aaron Craft, Ohio State. The heady point guard made the play of the game against Iowa State. Twice. First he stepped in at the last second to take a charge, a call that Iowa State fans will dispute for a long Please see NCAA | 13

time, as the Cyclones’ Will Clyburn was driving for the go-ahead basket. Then he took, and made, his only 3-pointer of the game just before time expired to push the Buckeyes into the regional semifinals, where they will meet Arizona. “The moment’s a lot bigger than me,” Craft said. “It just happened to be in my hands at the end.” ■ BEST NEW TEAM: Florida Gulf Coast. They don’t get any newer than the Eagles, who hail from the beachfront school in Fort Myers that came into existence just 16 years ago. Now the school that is barely old enough to drive a car is the first No. 15 in the round of 16. “I feel like we’re getting a lot of America behind us,” Sherwood Brown said. “I guess you could say we’re a part of America’s team at this point.” ■ BEST VILLAIN: Marshall Henderson, Mississippi. Strutting and pounding his chest whether the ball swished through the net or clanked off the rim, Ole Miss’s irrepressible Henderson puts the “shooting” in shooting guard. His shot selection was something out of the Wild West, but his trash talk was all new school. “There’s no question Marshall Mania affects the psyche of the other team,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said. “How can you avoid it? Marshall this, Marshall that. We live with Marshall Mania. So for us, it’s normal, another day at the office.”

Lawmakers must decide on raft of tax-cut bills sippi needs to cut taxes to compete with other states and say aiding businesses will improve the economy. “I think when you cut taxes, you actually make money,� said Bryant, a Republican. Democrats say Mississippi could spend much more on education or Medicaid expansion if Republican majorities weren’t reducing taxes so much. “They don’t know what they’re doing,� said Sen. Hob Bryan, D-Amory, a leading opponent of tax cuts and incentives over the last two years. “They don’t know how much they’re spending, and they don’t seem to
BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — How much is too much? When it comes to tax cuts, that’s the question that lawmakers and Gov. Phil Bryant must decide in coming weeks. There are at least 17 bills still under consideration that would cut taxes or divert revenues to subsidize businesses. Three others have already been signed into law by Bryant. The Department of Revenue says it can’t tell how much all the bills would cost, but it’s clear the total impact will be in the tens of millions of dollars. Republicans say Missis-

care.� Bryan and others say what’s happening is that business groups are cashing in on their support of Republicans who took over the House of Representatives in the 2011 election. “The people who purchased the Legislature in the last election have come to collect,� Bryan said. The House, in particular, has been very receptive to tax reductions, while Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves has been more cautious. At least 11 tax break bills passed the House only to die in the Senate Finance Committee. Reeves said he supports breaks when long-term benefits outweigh costs, but said that “we want to ensure that we can fund our priorities.� Mississippi has a weak system of estimating tax break costs. Many bills don’t have formal estimates, called fiscal notes, prepared by legislative staff. The Department of Revenue has looked at all 20 tax

“Taxes are a necessary part of government, but we believe a lower tax rate enables employers to hire more people. There is a balance in there that we’re trying to achieve, at the same time, to provide the services we need.� House Speaker Philip Gunn R-Clinton bills signed by Bryant or pending, but says it can’t estimate how much 15 of them will cost. One example is House Bill 1322, which would give a $2,000 tax credit to businesses that hire military veterans. The bill passed through the House and the Senate Finance Committee allowing a $2,000 credit each year for five years for every veteran employed. As written, the bill didn’t distinguish between currently employed or newly hired veterans. Without limits, Bryan said that 100,000 veterans could qualify, costing the state as much as $1 billion over five years. The Senate amended the bill to say the credit would only apply to veterans hired after Jan. 1, 2013. The Pew Center on the States last year urged states to beef up cost estimates of incentives, and to use yearly limits to prevent breaks from ballooning out of control. Jeff Chapman, a senior researcher for Pew, says figuring out who will use a tax break is hard. But analysts can offer a range of scenarios or at least try to estimate whether a bill will have a significant effect on state revenue. “But there are states that have taken this on even through the difficulties,� Chapman said. Right now, Mississippi
“They don’t know how much they’re spending, and they don’t seem to care.� Sen. Hob Bryan D-Amory lawmakers are considering cutting the severance tax for the first 30 months of production on hydraulically fractured oil wells, to encourage drilling in southwest Mississippi. Patrick Sullivan, president of the Mississippi Energy Institute, says the formation is expensive to drill in and yields less oil than formations in Texas or North Dakota. “We need to send a clear message out from the state — we want your capital here,� he said. He cited Louisiana as an example. But the Pew report, called “Avoiding Blank Checks,� singled out the 24-month Louisiana break, saying the cost to the state rose from $285,000 in 2007 to $239 million in 2010 as natural gas drilling boomed. In Mississippi, the Revenue Department couldn’t estimate the break’s cost. But the state would forgo $1 million in taxes if a well produces 300 barrels a day for 30 months at $90 a barrel.
Mississippi’s tax break push started in the 2012 Legislature, which Bryant continues to proclaim as “the most businessfriendly� in state history. One cornerstone was a reduction in the business inventory tax, projected to cost $7 million in the 2014 budget year, rising to $14 million in 2015. That bill was pushed by the Mississippi Manufacturers Association, also behind several significant proposals this year. House Bill 844, which is in a House-Senate conference, would eliminate the 1.5 percent sales tax on power or fuel used by manufacturers. It would cut state revenue by nearly $6 million a year, according to one of the few projections the Revenue Department has made, and cut cities’ revenue by nearly $1 million. The association pushed a much larger break, a $45-million-a-year bid to exempt manufacturers from the state’s franchise tax, out of the House Ways and Means Committee. But it died without a vote in the House after objections from House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville. “Taxes are a necessary part of government, but we believe a lower tax rate enables employers to hire more people,� said House Speaker Philip Gunn, RClinton. “There is a balance in there that we’re trying to achieve, at the same time, to provide the services we need.� Bryant, too, said the franchise cut was too big for this year. But he’s open to helping manufacturers achieve that longheld goal. “I think there may be some ways in the future to fund that,� Bryant said.
