Legislators Cautious Over Reorganization Salem (UPD Oregon legisla tors attending the fiscal con ference here were generally cautious in tneir first reaction to Gov. Mark Hatfield's plan for government reorganiza tion. Hatfield's proposal, reveal ed Thursday, calls for sweep ing consolidation of state agencies including formation of seven new departments and making two major state of fices appointive by the gover nor instead of elective by the people. The governor would have broad new powers and it would be the first step to ward a cabinet system. Duncan's Attitude House Speaker Robert Dun can, (D-Medford), said he has not had a chance to study the plan yet but he is on rec ord in the past favoring reor ganization for economy and efficiency. Sen. Ben Musa, (D-The Dalles), said he takes an "ex ceedingly dim view" of the plan. Rep. Grace O. Peck, (D- Portland), said she Is "fear ful" it gives loo much power to the governor, "not just Governor Hatfield, but any governor." She said she disap proves of his Idea of scattering the state institutions to vari ous new departments and pre fers them under one authority the Board of Control. Under Hatfield's plan, the board would be defunct. Potts Sees Fight Sen.- elect E. D. "Debbs" Potts, (D-Grants Pass), said there "definitely will be a fight over it, as with anything new." Sen. Alfred Corbetl, (D- Portland), said he favors some parts" of the program but will have to be convinced on others. Sen.- Francis Ziegler (R.- Corvallis), said he agrees with Hatfield that if the program were submitted in one bill "it would be defeated." Hatfield intends to submit it as many bills, figuring it will have a belter chance of passage. Another Republican, Rep. Victor Atiych of Portland, predicted that "at least part of It" will get through the 1961 session. ' Senate Democratic Leader Indefinite . Washington -(UPI)- Sen.
