Capital Sources Predict Early
Cutbacks If Measure Defeated
SALEM (UPI) Defeat of the
tax measure at the October 15
special election would result in
immediate cutbacks in some
state services, and in a special
legislative session, state house
sources believe.
Predictions are that a special
session could erupt into a bitter

battle between the House and
Senate.
Gov. Mark Hitfield still has not
announced whether be would call
a special session to grapple with
the fiscal crisis.
But responsible capitol sources
say there is no other politically
practical course open to Hatfield
in spite of the danger of a
lengthy legislative battle.
Loren Hicks, Hatfield's legal
counsel, said Hatfield probably
would wait until election results
were officially certified by the
secretary of state before issuing
a call for a special session.
No Decision Yet
Hicks added, "there's been no
decision yet on whether to call a
special session."
Secretary of State Howell Ap
pling Jr. told United Press In
ternationa', he expects to certify
the election results "within about
ten days" of the vote.
Neither Senate President Ben
Musa, D-The Dalles, nor House
Speaker Clarence Barton, D - Co
quille, would speculate as to what
Hatfield might do.
Rep. Stafford Hansell, R - Hcr
miston, said it was "probable"
Hatfield would call a special ses
sion. Cutbacks Expected Quickly
The general expectation here is
that temporary cutbacks of from
10 to 15 per cent will be ordered
for all general fund - supported
agencies, probably on Wednesday,
if the measure is defeated.
It is believed Hatfield would
recommend a program of cutbacks
and possibly some new revenue
sources if legislatures are called
back.
Speed in calling a special ses
sion would be essential, because
the fiscal crisis would deepen as
the state advanced farther into
the biennium.
It is over the issue of alter
nate new revenue sources that a
senate-house fight is expected to
develop.
Musa said enactment of new
taxes would be "a kick in the
teeth to taxpayers" if they voted
down the revenue bill.
Barton, however, feels some
cutbacks and some new revenue
sources would be needed.
Funds Untouchable
Those who believe a special ses
sion would be called point out
that only about $217 million of the
$404 million general fund budget
would be subject to cutbacks by
the governor.
The attorney general has ruled
Hatfield cannot cut the $141 mil
lion basic school fund. Also be
yond his reach are funds for the
courts, debt reduction, the treas
urer's and secretary of state's of
fices, and the legislature itself.
And there is a legal limit to cuts
that may be made in some state
operations. Many state institu
tions are protected by constitu
tional requirements that the state
provide service.
Complicating the issue is the
fact that dedicated fund agencies,
such as the Highway Department,
will not be affected by the re
suits of Tuesday's balloting.
Salary Cuts Difficult
These agencies still would have
ample operating funds, and this
would make it virtually impos
sible to order across - the - board
salary puts for state employes
The Civil Service Commission
is expected to rule that jobs may
be eliminated, or "days off" may
be ordered, but that the basic
pay scales cannot be cut.
Some high state oiiiciais say
cuts will have to be selective
some services possibly being elim
inated altogether, while others
will go virtually untouched.
The major question here is not
whether the tax measure will be
defeated, but instead, by what
margin will it be defeated.

Here's Some Observations On American Scene Today
' By GAY PAULEY
NEW YORK (UPI) -Some ob
servations on the American scene.
It actually happened in a super
market during a Saturday after
noon traffic jam of carts and
cart pushers. Two women, ap
parently sisters, counted the items
in the one grocery cart they were
pushing as they moved . forward
in an express checkout lane plain
ly marked for "five items or
less."
They counted eight items, con
sulted and then one of the pair
sallied forth to get a second
cart empty. Swiftly, three items
were transferred to the second
basket, making the two eligible
for the express checkout lane.'
But the speed lane jammed
suddenly, so another conference
was held, and one pointed out
that now the regular lane next
to them was moving more rapid
than express.
Before you could say detergent,
the three items were rcpiled into
the original cart and the pair
moved into a regular lane.
The strategy worked. They beat
this shopper, at first head of
them in express line, out of the
store by three customers.
One wise female of our ac
quaintance has figured a way to
mark the keys on her husband's
chain so he never has trouble
knowing which key will open the
front door. She splashed red nail
polish on the keys which count
most.
Anyone want to join STAM?
It's an organization some of us
working women are thinking of
founding. STAM would stand for

Why is it that those who pride
themselves on being on timo find
themselves always waiting on the
laggards? But let the person who
traditionally is prompt for an ap
pointment run late just once, and
the one he or she is to meet is
right on the dot waitingl ;

A neighbor, looking at the re

Another neighbor, staring at
