Moy 31. 1955 Budgeting Problems Every budgeting body in Deschutes county with the exception of the county budget board has finiBhed it? chores for this year. And this year's performances indi cato just how inadequate is the method followed in most cases. Appointed budget board members, most of them al most completely unfamiliar with day-to-day operations of the agency or group of agencies whose budgets they aiie considering, sit down with regular court, board or commission members to look over the budget. ; Tho most apparent desire is to remain within the six per cent limitation where possible. ; Once the budget committee members go over and approve their particular budget for the next fiscal year their work is done. ; After -working hard on an item study of the bud fat, they find out that amounts budgeted on an item ba sis have little significance. Many department heads go ahead and spend funds on the basis of total appropria tion solely, and largely ignore specific items.' Under these circumstances it might be well for the Bend city commission, in particular, to spend some time considering the city's services and how they are financed. Hero are a few of the questions they might ask dur ing tho nearly year-long period between now and the time the next budget is drawn up: Does Bend offer too many city services ? Docs Bend offer too few city services? Are some services out of line with others? In other words, do we spend too much for one thing, not enough for another? Is our present tax, license and fee structure a sound one, or is it a patchwork thrown together over a per iod of years? What about matching funds? Are we matching too many, too few, too well or not well enough? Are we making adequate plans for the future? There are no easy or immediate answers to these or the many other questions which would arise during luch a study. But the members of tho city commission tould do themselves, the budget board and most im portant of all, the taxpayers a good turn if such a study Were undertaken. 'Getting Crowded Around Here, Isn't It, Chum? Y No News is Bad News "No News is Bad News Where Schools Are Con corned" is the title of an engaging little booklet just pill) lished by the National School Public Relations associa tion artd the Oregon Kducation association. Written by four Oregonians, Dean Gordon Sabine of tho University's school of journalism, Superintendent fjom Powers of Kugene, newspaperman "Red" Ilornish of Springfield and education reporter Wilma Morrison of the Oregonian, the booklet is an interesting one. Tho book cooers aoproblcm pretty well, and it would be worth the short length of time involved if every school teacher and administrator (and every newspaperman) in the state would read it. New Approach to Research A scientist friend was in the office t ho other day. Follow who works at the big atomic plant up in .south eastern Washington. We got to talking about the change in employment for scientists in the past few years. And a big change it has been. As recently as UO years ago there were relatively few employment opportunities for research scientists. They could work for colleges and universities, and teach other people how to be research scientists. They could work for a few major oil companies which could afford to support research programs. They could work on a relatively few government programs. Or they could work for a couple of chemical or steel giants. But, oh, the change in the past few years. Now chemical companies are hiring geol.OJ.sts, air craft companies are hiring nuclear physicists, utility companies arc hiring research mathematicians, to name just a few. 8 Along with the change in job opportunities has come 1 change in the methods of handling applied research. Kor a long time the basic researcher Worked in his laboratory, when he found something the applied re searchers started in to see if they could make a useful product out of it. Now the companies decide" what kind of product they want, and then put basic and applied researchers to work on the problem to find the answer. The technique is working, anil working well. The whole work life of hundreds of .scientists has changed. And they seem to like it. pi T-mmsmA fir -Jn;iflrj----jr-.ir" vr i 1. wwmm?w - - Redmond Hospital jChiang Opposes Talks with Reds Special to The Bulletin REDMOND A daughter, named Margaret Ann, was bora to Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Sturza of Red mond Friday mght at Central Ore gon district hospital.

American scientists have alrea dy turned in 1100 and 189 have been cleared. They come from uni versities, government agencies, 1 and private industry research sci entists. Russia has submitted 100 titles, Great Britain 100 and France 70. There will probably be high in terest In the Russian papers.
