State Agencies
Give Requests
For Two Years
State agencies have asked for
277 million dollars in appropria-l
tions for the two years beginning
next July l, and 150 millions of
that amount would be for educa
tion, Gov. Elmo Smith said Tues
day. The 277 millions would be 55
millions more than is being spent
in the current biennium.
However, the total will be re
duced by the state budget division
and the legislature.
The governor promised that he
would submit a balanced budget
to the legislature.
"I have repeated my earlier in
structions to the finance depart
ment to make rigorous tests and to
seek substantial reduction in
these requests," the governor
said.
At the same ' time, he warned
that the budget would be consid
erably higher because the state is
growing rapidly.
Besides 150 millions for gen
eral and higher .education, the re
quests total 31 millions for public
welfare and 40 millions for state
institutions.
Wearing eye protective equip
ment in U.S. industrial plants has
saved the vision of 10 thousand
workers in the last 10 years.

Policies
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Gov. Elmo Smith Monday
opened his campaign for election
and listed the issues as "finance,
provision for our schools, decent
living for our elder citizens, and
funds for all of the services of
government which people expect.
Smith told a Republican wom-
ens gathering at Sweet Home
that he was seeking election on a
continuation of the policies and
administration that he now is pur
suing.
He said that -if elected he will
recommend that the Legislature
repeal the surtax on the state in
come tax. "Experience has shown
this tax, by its very nature tends
to amplify inequities, he said.
He added that he will recommend
a complete fax program later.
Sen. Wayne Morse, campaign
ing for re-election as a Democrat,
told a Grass Valley audience that
"small businessmen of Oregon are
fed up with the high interest rate,
hard money policies of the Eisen
hower administration."
He said that these policies are
one of the "leading issues of the

Issues
campaign."
"My opponent, Douglas McKay,
refuses to stand up 'and be heard
on any of the vital issues of the
day. His philosophy was expressed
last week when he said that issues
are not important and only votes
count," Morse said.
McKay, the Republican nominee
for Morse's post, said that the
idea of the "little man" advanced
by Democrats was designed to
"take away the opportunities of
the individual and make our citi
zens dependents of government.
"Our stake in these issues will
be lost unless we get out the vote
Nov. 6," he told a McMinnville
rally. "Only by getting out the
vote can we help guide the des
tiny 'of the nation."
There were these other develop-
ments in Oregon politics Monday.
Republican Hep. bam Loon,
speaking at Milton - Frecwater,
said that if he is re-elected he
plans to sponsor legislation in the
next session of Congress to defer
rcpavment of funds which farm
ers borrowed from the federal
eovernmcnt after last winter's
freeze. Coon is opposed by Demo
crat Al Ullman.
State Sen. Monroe Sweetland,
Democratic nominee for secretary
of state, said that the office he
seeks has been held by the Re
publicans since 1878. "The time
for a change in this office is long
overdue, he said.
His Republican opponent, State
Sen. Mark Hatfield, told a Pendle
ton meeting that "superior pro
grams and superior candidates
are the aim of the Republican
Party, but that partisanship
not."
Rep. Harris Ellsworth (R-Ore)
was campaigning in the Coos Bay
area.
State Sen. Carl H. Francis, GOP
candidate for the attorney general
post now held by Democrat Rob
ert Y. Thornton, planned a politi
cal caravan from Yamhill County
to Portland Tuesday.
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger ID
Ore) campaigning for his party's
candidate, told a Democratic
rally at Garibaldi that the "bitter
by-product of the partnership
power scheme espoused by ex
Secretory (of Interior) McKay is
the increased pressure to con
struct dams imperiling fish mi
grations, and scenic and wildlife
values.
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt is to ar
rive in Portland Wednesday to
speak at a sio-a-plate Jefferson-

dinner that night.

Sheriff Hurts
Ankle in Run
For Prisoner
Sheriff Denver Young was sport
ing a sprained ankle Tuesday as
the result of the arrest of a father
of eight children Monday after
noon.
In the county jail is George Ken-
ney, 39, resident of a South Salem
trailer court, on a charge of ob
taining money and property by
false pretenses. He asked for a
preliminary hearing on the charge.
The charge involves a $35 bad
check passed at a South Salem
grocery. Kenney asked for a pre
liminary hearing on the charge at
his arraignment Tuesday morning
in district court. The hearing is
set for Thursday. Bail was set at
$1000.
The sprained ankle came when
Kenney attempted to escape cus
tody while en route o jail. Sheriff
Young said. When he stopped for
the stop sign at Church and Ferry
streets, Kenney jumped from the
car and ran, the sheriff related.
He jumped from the car to chase
Kenney, Young said, and twisted
hip ankle. He then yelled twice at
Kenney to halt, he said, and Ken
ney obeyed after running into a
parked car. They then continued
on to the jail.
Kenney's apprehension came aft
er combined work of the sheriff's
office and city police, both of
whom had been looking for him.
They spotted him Monday after
noon as he returned to his trailer
house with a rented pickup truck
and gave chase as he attempted
to get away. After stopping him,
Young was taking him to jail
when the escape attempt-occurred.
Tht truck, returned to the rental
agency by a city officer, ,was ob
tained with a bad check, officers
said.
2 Dallas Men
Ask Hearings
Preliminary hearings were re
quested by two young Dallas men
upon their arraignments Monday
afternoon on charges of knowingly
uttering and publishig a forged
bank check.
Charles LeRoy Armstrong, 18,
is charged on two separate counts,
one of passing a $38.92 check and
the other of passing a $51 check
in partnership with Donald William
Schnee. The hearings are to be
set. Bail is let at $2,000 on each
count.
The checks passed in Salem
were each made out to Daniel Har
rison, city police said. Officers
say they believe there are more
of the "Daniel Harrison" checks
out in the city that have not been
reported by the stores taking them.
They would like holders of any
such checks to contact the depart
ment.
Armstrong, in addition to the
check charges, faces a charge of
violation of probation on a pre
vious Marion county conviction.
