Provides that certain provisions concerning the State's moral obligation for the bonds of the Authority shall not apply to bonds issued by the Authority on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act. Provides that the notes and bonds issued by the Authority and the income from these notes and bonds may be free from all taxation by the State or its political subdivisions, except for estate, transfer, and inheritance taxes.
