Major Issues of Legislature
Start Emerging in Sacramento
By United Preea latent allaaal
Some of the major issues of
the 1983 legislature,' smoulder
ing beneath the surface ever
tince lawmakers convened In
January, have begun to
merge and temperatures
were rapidly rising.
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.

The dispute between Speak
er Unruh and Republican Dr.
Max Rafferty, superintendent
of public Instruction, a non
partisan position, came to the
surface when Rafferty ac
cused Unruh of "bossism" in
the amending of a pair of edu
cation bills that would have
given appointive powers to
Rafferty. 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.

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 Defends Cut
In State CD Budget
Salem James A. Redden
(D-Jacksonl, defended the con
troversial Civil Defense budg
et, passed last week by the
Oregon House of Representa
tives. "The budget on Civil Do
tense, coupled with the nec
essary organizational changes
already agreed upon Is cer
tainly adequate," Redden
said.
The budget constitutes a
$145,000 cut from the Gov
ernor's request. Earlier, the
House had voted to reorganize
the Civil Defense depart
ment.
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."
Under the reogranization
plan proposed earlier, several
other operating state agon
eies, including the Oregon
state police, are included in
the Civil Defense set-up.

Honkers Hatching
In Rough Weather
In Klamath Basin
If the Rogue River Valley's

one or something, much less

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

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.
