School News
Wilson School
Mrs. Marjorie Shelton's
first grade room has 11 girls
and 14 boys.
In science, students have
been studying about the Mon
arch butterfly. Many of the
children brought cocoons to
school to see the butterflies
emerge. In art class, the stu
dents drew pictures of their
families.
Oregon's biggest single
source of tax revenue, like
most states is the income tax.
Welfare Recovery
$51,91 in September
Salem i'Mi T h e Oregon
Justice Department's welfare
j recovery division took in
S51.91 1 in September, Ally.
Gen. Robert Y. Thornton said
Wednesday.
Of the total. SSI (IRH w:i
; collected for child support,
! and S823 in welfare fraud.
! will cat into state finances is
still anyone's guess. And no
! one in state government
wants to do any guessing just
now.
Gov. Mark Hatfield esti
mates the impact on stale fi-
; nances between now and
June, 1963 end of the bien
: num. as "significant," with
1 no elaboration.
At best, any loss of stale
! income means a big headache
I for the tax commission, for
i the governor, and for the 1063
legislature in January.
This Is due to the fact that
stale finances were tight be
fore the storm hit, with no
money to spare. Some legis
lators had questioned state
ments by Hatfield and his fis
cal advisors that no tax in
crease would be needed to
balance the next state budget.
A big question after the
storm was: Where will the
money come from to pay for
damage to state buildings,
; since the Budget is tigm."
! The answer Is that, in ari
jdition to federal disaster
funds, Oregon has been sav
1 ing for a rainy day since 1923.
The savings are ill the form
I of a state restoration fund, a
little-publicized pool of $2.7
I million.
Administered by the State
j Finance Department, it has
' built up through the years by
assessing various state agen
! cics a certain amount each bi
l ennium.
I The state operates this self
j insurance program because it
carries no catastrophe insur
i ance.
Stale agencies weren't as
sessed in the current bienni
um because the fund has built
I up close enough to the S3
million top set by law. But
now the fund will be heavily
depleted, and the 1063 legis
lature will be asked to assess
agencies in 1063-65 to start
building it back up.
