FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. March 27. 19S7 Governor Holmes Sees Legislature Ending in May Salem (UP) Gov. Robert D. Holmes today held his first press conference in many weeks in which he said he would be a candidate for reelection. Answering a question as to the length of the present session, the governor said he felt it would be over around the first week end in May. He said the House Tax Committee had told him it would start formulating a tax program about April 15. Sura To Taka Long Look The governor warned, how ever, that the committee might get started a little later and that the equally divided Oregon Sen ate was sure to take a long look at any proposed tax program. Unless a better method of dis tribution of basic school funds is advanced, the governor said he favored the "key district" plan. He said the basic school law was enacted to give equal treatment to all districts. "But we have veered from this objective and thereby rich districts have become more wealthy and poor districts more destitute," the governor said. Mora Equitable Distribution He added that he felt the House would come up with amendments to the bill that would provide more equitable distribution to the counties that might suffer loss of state funds under the proposed distribution plan. q The governor expressed con fidence that most of his proposed legislative program would be en acted into law. The new highway commission er to be appointed by the gov ernor will succeed Ben Chandler, Coos Bay, whose term expires March 31. On the Fair Board, Gov. Holmes said he had three cour- :tesy resignations and that one I term is expiring. He said a fifth courtesy resignation is expected; He indicated he might accept ;ome of the resignations and ask ; others to continue to serve.

George Leader's traffic council proposing that radar be legalized for speed enforcement in Penn sylvania. "We are not convinced," Smith added, "that the development of radar has reached a point where it can be said to fairly and ac curately do the job claimed for it as a medium of speed law enforcement."

GOP Plunge -Info Showdown Fight Washington (U.R) House Democrats and Republicans plunged into a showdown fight i today over conducting an inves tigation of the nation's economic system.
