Medford Police Arrest Men for Lane County Mcdlord police Wednesday arrested two men in Medlord wanted by law enforcement authorities in Lane county. Arrested were Marvin Ar thur SIcadman, 29, of Philo math, Ore., wanted by the Eu gene police department on a charge of uttering and pub lishing a forged check, and Donald Frank Schwab, 30, of 242 Beatty st., Medford, on a Lane county charge of failure to provide. governor, and 196 fewer than asked by the Board of Higher Education. Rep. John Mosser (R-Port-land), proposed the cutback. The committee rejected an alternate motion by Sen. Al fred Corbett (D-Portland), for a 16.5 to 3 ratio. Froth Cut Eyed A move to restrict fresh man out-of-state enrollments to 10 per cent of the freshman class total was proposed by Rep. Stafford Hansell (R-Her-miston). He termed the proposal "a budget device" to allow high er education to begin cutting down on undergraduate out-of-state students, thus leaving more room for Oregon students. No action was taken on Hansen's suggestion. Mosser asked committee members to consider the ad visability of raising out-of- state tuition fees, and encour aging out of state enrollment. It was Mosser s contention that education is a business, and that if out-of-state stu dents paid their own way, Oregon's higher education sys tem would expand and pro duce more education and eco nomic growth. Hansell said the committee would have to adopt either the Mosser or Hansell view as a "policy decision" before planning new classroom and dormitory needs. Rep. Ross Morgan (D-Gres-ham), co-chairman of the par ent Joint Ways and Means committee, suggested the pos sibility of budgeting funds to individual institutions. Corbett replied "we can't impose detailed instructions on the higher educa tion board. Our job is to adopt pol icy, and let the board imple ment the policy."

Brown Asks Moves For Rehabilitation Sacramento - rtlPD - Gov. Ed. mund G. Brown called upon the legislature today to move toward rehabilitating the four million Californians who "live precariously on the margin of our economy. In a special message on so. cial welfare, Brown told the lawmakers: "We must complete the change in the emphasis in our public assistance programs from the cash dole philosophy which has ruled them since their beginning in the 1930's." The chief executive also said the state must "seek out and correct the causes of pov erty: lack of education, lack of training and lack of eco nomic opportunity." As a third point, he said the state must make its social welfare programs and the ad ministration of them "sounder fiscally, more effective and more efficient." To do this, he suggested the lawmakers: -Amend state law to make "rehabilitation" a major ob jective of public assistance and give the state the riRht to require this in local adminis tration of the program. -Speed payment of aid in federally-assisted programs so they will be made as soon as need and apparent eligibility are established. -Declare the administration of public welfare to be a mat ter of statewide concern. -Adopt a single formula to share costs of all federally- aided welfare programs be tween the state and counties. -Change the function of the state social welfare board from a policy-making unit to an advisory commission to "serve as the conscience of the people of California." -Extend the aid to needy children program to children of unemployed parents "sub ject to strict safeguards to prevent chiseling and coupled with a program of work re lief, training and rehabilita tion." -Widen the definition of disability in the aid to the totally disabled program to cover persons unemployable because of permanent disability.
