Montgomery does not believe ;he people w ill approve an In come tax hike. And, unlike the governor, he does not believe corporation income and excise taxes should be raised two per cent. “ I don’t believe $16 m illion can be cut from state pro grams without severe damage to programs long since request ed and approved by the people,” says Rep. Montgomery, re ferring to Gov. McCall’ s budget proposals. “ And I don’t believe the peo ple want an increase In their income tax, as they have dem onstrated three times In 15 years, twice in the last eight. We haven’t in 20 years had the opportunity to vote on a sales tax In the same manner as the cigarette tax last May.” Rep. Montgomery, a lanky Eugene Insurance man now ser ving his second term as the leading Hcuse officer, makes it clear he is not a sales tax advocate. Income tax Is the best method, he maintains, “ but after two tries In my short tenure, I’ m prepared to try something else.” At any rate, something must be done for those who seek property tax cuts, and he feels the Senate w ill share this feel ing. He expresses confidence In legislative refe rra l and getting the measure on the ballot dur ing the current session. The package, he predicts, w i l l appear on the ballot In title form, or outline; If approved, the legislature w ill Implement the various proposals and smooth the way for property tax reduction. Rep. Montgomery also fore sees continuation of some state- level programs to relieve prop erty taxes. Inventory tax relief must come, for example, and he anticipates no problem in the appropriation of state funds earmarked for this purpose. He also w ill support a gasoline tax increase If revenue is tagged to go back to cliles and coun ties. A ir and water quality, rated by legislators as the state’ s number two problem area, is viewed as a real dilemma by Speaker Montgomery. A good firs t step, he feels, would be to strengthen the State Sani tary Authority by providing It r Rep. Montgomery anticipates this session w ill last no longer than In 1965, and hopefully not as long. Part of the reason lies in the go-ahead signal he has given his appointed committee chairmen. Instead of waiting fo r b ills or someone to pre sent a problem, committees have been Instructed to look ahead 20 to 30 years and draw up legislation now to meet fu ture state needs. “ I ’m very proud of this con structive step forward,” the House Speaker reports. "Com mittee chairmen are Initiating and Innovating on their own, headlining problem areas and then having people in to tes tify .” “ We want to be responsive to the people, but we also have the responsibility to lead.” A local lad now in the Coast Guard wrote his wife recently about a narrow escape that be fell him in enemy waters off V ietnam .. . an escape that just as easily could not have been.

Dr. Swinger, what is the Cen ter for tte Absorption of Federal Funds? It is an organization, created by a consortium of several insti tutions, for the purpose of sur veying preliminary steps,toward a fresh look at some of die more vexing problems of research,ed- ucation and society. What are some examples of work? PU be happy to tell you, but first I think it should be under stood that the center does not take any problem to the closure mode. The closure mode? Yes, that Is we don't finalize any jxoblems. We confine our selves to pioneering in develop ing approaches. We tend to be technique o riented.. . Specifically, what are some of the examples of the Center's work? Well, the Center staff members have resolved the conflict be tween teaching and research. How? By doing neither. I see. Then what do they do? They confer, they comment oneachother's past papers,they travel a good deal. There Is no shortage of activity. In fact, the pace is cruel.
