Cr&f l r iL Duncan t Tells of Budget Problems Procuring Revenue to Pay 24 Millions Expenses Is Major Task The biggest problem confront ing the 1931 legislature is how to procure the revenue necessary to carry on the program submitted in the 334,000,000 budget of former Governor Charles H. Martin, de clared Robert Duncan, president ot the senate, in an informal talk before the Salem Ad club yester day. The senator from Burns, speak ing individually, said a way out of the dilemma lay through bal ancing the budget with antici pated revenue and putting before the people the option et a sales or gross income tax as the means ot providing funds for greatly in creased relief expenditures.- Dwelling on other aspecta of the tax problem, the senator showed how removal ot boards and bureaus as a means of effect ing administrative economies wss impossible because of pressure from minority groups.
