Gov. Edmund G, Brown's plan to balance his proposed $3.29 billion budget with no new taxes for the first time ran into chapter-and-vene at tack - and it came from his own Democratic leadership. Senate President pro tem pore Hugh M. Burnt demand ed that $8 5 million be slashed from the .budget, wiping out funds for all new agencies and triklng at the heart of the governors legislative pro gram. Net Honest Approach "In my opinion," Burns laid, "the budget as submitted does not reflect an honest ap proach to the 'no new tax picture painted by the gover nor." Brown countered in a state ment that Burns was "dead wrong" It he felt that his pro gram could not be enacted without new taxes. Brown an swered another Burns' charge by stating, "he Is also dead wrong If he Is trying to say that there are hidden costs in my program." Both Burns and Assembly Leader Jesae M. Unruh (D-Los Angeles) agreed recently that new taxes seemed to be the only answer to financing of such major programs as edu cation. While differences among top Democrats were expected to develop Into a major battle of the session, heat was al ready generating between a top Democrat and one of the GOP's headline figures.

Unruh countered that Rafferty wat "conspiring with the John Birch Society" and challenged Rafferty to repudiate what Unruh called Right wing attempts to take over school boards. Civil Rights also moved through major legislative ma chine ry with passage by the Assembly of an anti-housing discrimination bill - a bill that contained no penalties for en forcement. Despite this major modifica tion, the bill was expected to meet opposition in the senate where, Burns said, "It may not o out Just as it came in." he Assembly passed the bill 47-2S with three Republicans crossing party lines to assist the bill in its six-vote victory. Nixon: Gov. Brown attack ed Richard Nixon for a speech In which the former vice pres ident suggested the United States unleash the Cuban ex Ilea. Brown, who defeated Nixon for the governorship last November, told newsmen at the Western Governors Conference In Phoenix: "I thought that speech was a dis grace. It was a masterpiece of double-talk. Nixon had said in Los Angeles that President Kennedy "pulled defeat out of victory" and called for backing the exiles.

Tunat The search for the aeacuy killer botulism in canned tuna fish was still without a tangible clue fol lowing a month long search by highly specialized "detec tives" from federal and state public health agencies. The search began when two wom en died from eating canned tuna infected with botulism. The cans were traced to a San Francisco packing plant, which recalled more than .1.3 million cans of tuna it packed. no contamination has been lound in the 150,000 cans that have been returned and the question remains: Whv and how did It happen?

On the Air By ELEANOR WIESE Baseball is considered the American national sport, yet twice as many Americans attend horse races as go to major league ball games. This is one of the many thought-provoking facts dis closed in ."The Business of Gambling," an NBC News "White Paper" study present ed tonight at 10 p.m. on KMED-TV. Organized gambling, legal and illegal, may well be the biggest dollar-volume indus try In the nation. The amount the public spends annually in organized professional gam bling operations is estimated at upwards of $40 billion, which is more than the com bined gross profits of Amer ica's hundred largest in dustries. Because most forms of gambling are illegal in most parts of the country, many of those who gamble - and ex perts say seven out of every ten adult Americans do sup port gambling - are breaking the law. Bingo can be played legally in only 11 states and the slot-machine, the most widespread single gambling device, is legal in only two The question of whether certain forms of gambling should be legalized or whe ther the spread of gambling should be checked by stricter regulation and enforcement is a matter of growing na tional concern and controver sy. "The Business of Gamb ling" presents two points of view. According to executive producer Irving Gitlln "Those who favor an exten sion of legalized gambling say it would provide billions of dollars in tax revenue for needed services, stimulate business and eliminate many of the problems resulting from illegal gambling. Those opposing it point out the dan ger of making the state a partner with organized gamb ling in exploiting the weak nesses of its citizens. They claim that legalization In creases mass gambling, with dire social and economic con sequences to the individual and state. The Business of Gam bling," in examining the phe nomenal growth of organized gambling and its far-reaching effects on the political, eco nomic, social and moral struc ture of American life, will pay particular attention to tour counties In Maryland which have had legalized slot machines for a number of years, the gambling economy of Nevada, pressures for a sweepstakes in Massachusetts, off-track betting In New York, and gambling casinos in Idaho.

Redden pointed out that this session of the legislature is faced with necessary budget cutting and that the Civil De fense budget was "obviously inflated."

Main, Medford Honkers Hatching In Rough Weather In Klamath Basin If the Rogue River Valley's chilly April has you complain ing, stop and think of some one or something, much less protected against the unsea sonal air currents. For in stance, those fuzzy little gos lings in the snow. That's where they have been in the Great Klamath Basin, according to Robert H. Smith, biologist with the de partment of the interior, who counts waterfowls on the Pa cific flyway. Smith just returned to his Rogue River valley home from checking the black brants on the Oregon coast. He says honkers have undoubtedly been hatching in some pretty rough weather in the Klamath Basin. For while black brants and many other waterfowl come and go with the weather pat tern, honkers stay in their na tive marshes and they nest when nesting time comes re gardless of the weather. Only in the most extreme seasons do they leave the Klamath Basin and then they return to nest in familiar haunts. Smith will be going into the Klamath area soon to check the birds on Tule lake, Upper Klamath lakes, along the river and in the upper marshes. For the Klamath Basin is one of Miss Darneille To Compete in Event Miss Lindsay Darneille, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Don Darneille and a senior at Med ford High school, enters the sectional American Legion or atorical contest in Portland Monday to compete against other winners in the western region. Miss Darneille won first place in region competition in Moscow, Idaho, and is the first entry from this district to win in the region. Other orators from the district have entered region, according to DeVere Taylor, district chairman of the oratorical contest, but no one prior to Miss Darnielle won first place. If Miss Darneille wins In Portland Monday, she will continue to Eau Claire, Wise, to compete with other sec tional winners in the national contest finals. The local high school senior also is being sponsored by the Medford American Legion post as entry in the Miss Rogue Valley contest and is one of the 10 finalists chosen by judges last Wednesday. She will go into the finals in the contest May 18, at which time Miss Rogue Valley will be chosen as entry in the Miss Oregon contest at Seaside. SPECIAL!

They have been wintering in Mex ico.

Vaccine Questions Subject of Show Questions about the new measles vaccine will be an swered on "Adventures in Medicine" at 3 o'clock this afternoon over Station KBES TV. Other important immun izations will.be discussed. Dr. William J. Miller and Wilbur R. Peterson, pedia tricians, will be joined by Dr. A. Erin Merkel, Jackson county health physician, in explaining the importance of tetanus and other boosters in maintaining a high level of immunity against certain in fectious and communicable diseases. The program on immuniza tions was planned at this time to coincide with the introduc tion of the measles vaccine and also because physicians and health authorities throughout the country are becoming increasingly con cerned about public apathy in making use of the import ant vaccines readily available to everyone. Concern has also been ex pressed by physicians about maintaining 1 m m u n ization against smallpox since world travel has become so com mon. The medical panel will re view recommended immuniz ations schedules, and empha size the most important shots that should be included, espe cially in families with small children.
