Lobbyists'
Views Sought
SACRAMENTO. Des. 16 (Pi A
call went out to lobbyists to speak
up today and tell California legisla
tor what they think about proposed
action to control their vote-getting
activities.

eyed Governor Warren's lobby-curbing
program Intently but ever so
silently, get their chance at a sen
ate rules committee hearing called
for 11 a m. (PST) and thrown open
to all comers.
SUUed
On the fifth day of the year-end
special session, the bills to stifle
corrupt practices In Influencing the
making of the state's laws have
cone exactly nowhere. They remain
In assembly and senate committees
while members work to soften or
clarify restrictions applying mainly
to lawyer legislators.
Bills covering other Issues of the
session school funds, sex crimes
snd welfare system revision have
fared better.
. The assembly education commit
tee approved a 12,500,000 approrla
tlon to help, out school district bur
dened by boom growth. The Cali
fornia Teachers association declared
that unless emergency aid Is given
many schools will be forced to close
before the end of the school year.
Aged Blind
Legislation to continue state
handling of aged blind aid until July
1 cleared the assembly social wel
fare committee. Otherwise admini
stration will revert to the 58 coun
ties In March under the Initiative
measure adopted by the people last
month.
The senate finance committee rec
ommended passage of a bill giving
the state $8200.000 to pay the costs
of the security program until July 1.
Finally, the state rules committee
sgreed on the need for some severe
penalties against sex offenders by
reporting out, favorably, a series of
measures designed to meet the prob
lem.
