On State's Special Session
(VMInr'n nnlei United Press
International asked the Senate
president and House speaker to
comment on the special session
which begins Monday. Their
comments follow)
By Senate President Ben Musi
; I anticipate the session ?U1 be
austere, snort ana narmonwus,
We have a very specific man
date from our bosses, the vot-
nra In rodllfo the 1963-65 blldg
et, as originally adopted, by $60
million.
It is my hope this can be ac
complished without seriously in
juring necessary state services
ThA on rierilcated men and wo
men of the legislature are well
aware of tneir grave response
hiliiv and will make a eood ac
count of themselves, and all
with reasonable dispatch.
Rv StwflVfi Clarence Barton
It would be my hope that the
special session of the legisla
ture will rapidly come to grips
with tho nrnhlems at hand, will
confine its activities solely to
these problems, will solve tnem
and adjourn.
Thn ImmoriintA nrnhlem is to
reduce state expenditures, to
present state revenues, ine guv
ernor is not only permitted, but
is presently required uy law, 10
cut spending in those areas
where ne can, to me ena mm
outgo equals income. The attor
ney general has given an opin
ion that the governor cannot re
duce basic school support with
out permission by the legisla-
fnca RnrmiRp nf the fact that
basic school support comprises
about W per cent or we sime a
budget, it is my personal opin
ion that it, too, should be sub
ject to allotment control, other
wise the area where reductions
can be made is so small that
many unfortunate individuals
Vehicle Stolen in
Area in Accident
State police here said they
have been informed that a pick
up truck reported stolen from
Ashland was involved in an ac
cident 18 miles west of Grande
Rondo Tuesday.
' The driver, Anthony Everett
McCredie, 28, was hospitalized
al McMinnville.
State police headquarters in
Salem has informed the Med-
ford office that McCredie is
wanted by authorities in Michi-gan.
' The auto was taken sometime
after 6 p.m. on Monday from
the Jim Busch used car lot.
will suffer if the total reduction
in the budget must be made
from sources not including basic
school support.
My mail indicates that the
people of Oregon support educa
tion but they resent what they
call "frills" in education. People
in the field of public education
should commence trimming
their sails and eliminating these
frills. If this is done, basic
school support can be reduced
and education will not suffer in
fundamental essentials.
Many people indicate that they
feel a sales tax would solve Ore
gon's problems. It may well be
that it will help to solve them,
though this has not been the ex
perience in sales tax states. All
states have their financial prob
lems just as Oregon does, and
the method of taxation that is
used is not a panacea for these
problems. It would seem to me
that if the special session of the
legislature were to attempt to
write a sales tax bill, we would
also, at the same time, have to
rewrite the present income tax
law completely and submit the
two proposals to the people for
their vote.
I have never been an enthu
siast for a sales tax, and if it
is to be just another tax, my
opposition to it will be intensi
fies. I question whether or not
there is time in the special ses
sion to rewrite our entire tax
code so as to present a bal
anced new lax program to the
people. It would seem to me
that the course of wisdom would
be to leave this for the tax in
terim study committee, which
will have the time and oppor
tunity to do a workmanlike job
on tax reform rather than to at
tempt to accomplish this in the
hurry of the special session.
This is particularly true because
enactment of any new tax will,
in my judgment, require the
ultimate approval of the people
of Oregon and will not solve our
immediate problem of balancing
the governor's $404 million budg
et with approximately $342 mil
lion of revenues.
This is the principal task of
the special session. This we
should do and then adjourn.

Rockefeller Said
Bothered by Two
Major Handicaps
By RAYMOND LAHR
WASHINGTON (UPD - Gov,
Nelson A. Rockefeller goes into
his campaign for the Republi
can presidential nomination
with two major weaknesses
his liberal image and his re-marriage.
These two handicaps were
factors often mentioned in a
UPI survey of Republican gov
ernors, state chairmen and na
tional committee members,
Party leaders in more than 40
states were contacted after
Rockefeller's formal announce
ment Thursday that he was a
candidate.
Long Struggle Seen
It was taken for granted that
the New York governor and
Sen. Barry (Joldwater of Ari
zona, a still unannounced can
didate, were headed into a long
struggle leading up to the Na
tional Convention next July.
Rockefeller was generally rat
ed the underdog.
A Rockefeller vs. Goldwater
contest was commonly translat
ed into a liberal vs. conserva
tive race, although some GOP
leaders contended that differ
ences between the two men
were overemphasized. Foreign
policy, civil rights and welfare
programs were cited as specific
points of difference.
There was little inclination to
discount the political burden
created by Rockefeller's marri
age to a divorced mother
of four children last May after
his own divorce.
Chances Damaged
Of the party leaders ques
tioned, one or more in 26 states
felt that Rockefeller's chances
were damaged to some degree
by his remarriage. Some felt
that this was a serious handi
cap which would never vanish;
some felt that the unfavorable
reaction had partly subsided
and would fade even more.
These appraisals were offered
even by Republicans who de
plored consideration of Rocke
feller's personal life as a factor
in the campaign.
Party officials in only five
states dismissed the remarriage
as insignificant and eight others
refused to guess about its politi
cal effects.
Rusk Pledges United States Will Give Every
Assistance To New South Viet Nam Government
WASHINGTON (UPD-Secre-tary
of State Dean Rusk today
expressed hope that the new
government of South Viet Nam
will be able to rally the country
and its people to get on with
the war against Communist
guerrillas and create an "inde
pendent, free and secure" na
tion. Rusk said this was now the
"main job" of the provisional
government and the United
States will give it every assist
ance it can.
But Rusk said under present
conditions he sees little real
prospect of any realistic nego
tiations between the Communist
regime in North Viet Nam and
the Western-backed regime in
South Viet Nam to end their
guerrilla war.
Attacks Senate Restrictions
At a news conference, Rusk
also lashed at senatorial efforts
to write restrictions into the
foreign aid bill to limit or deny
assistance to such countries as
Yugoslavia, Egypt and Indo
nesia. He accused senators of trying
"to legislate foreign policy."
The secretary said he was
"very much disturbed . . . very
much concerned about the ten
dency" in Congress to "try to
build into law attitudes on for
eign aid."
On other subjects, Rusk said:
Soviet harassment of U.S.
military convoys on the Berlin
highway is very serious because
it could lead to major prob
lems. He noted that Soviet Pre
mier Nikita S. Khrushchev
showed in remarks two days
ago to some visiting American
businessmen that he realizes
this. He said the United States
and its Allies consider their ac
cess to Berlin "utterly funda-
