That compares with 3,440, 000 snares traded Tuesday when the market declined. Patterson Backs Basic School Fund PORTLAND IB Gov. Paul Patterson said Tuesday he will iiot nsk the next Legislature to aban don or curtail the basic school support Jund nor any other pro gram approved by the voters or the Legislature. Speaking at the Portland Retail Trade Bureau dinner, where he shared the platform with U.S. Scn.-elcct Richard L. Neuberger, Patterson said these cuts had been suggested as a possible solution to the st-ite's financial nroblemr. "Other Ulan to effect economies wherever 1 possible," the state "should not drop, suspend or alter anything taken on through the vote ot the people or the people's rep resentatives." Patterson said. He gave no bint as to what tax suggestions he might make to the Leslslsture. soylnir only, "I've no ticed that the people of this stale never fail to pay the bill If they've had a chance to pass on the meas ure." Neuberger, in his talk, called for Immediate appointment of fed eral district Judge to fill a vacancy created by the promotion of Judge James Alger Fee to the sin circuit Court of Appeals eight months ago. "It seems to me urgent that an appointee be named to fill this vacancy because the docket has required the presence ot visiting jurists in recent months," he said. Speaking in a lighter vein, Neu--bcrger indicated he thought most of his audience had supported Re publican Sen. Guy Cordon In the recent election. "I saw some people here that I thought voted for me. But now that they have cleared off the tables and left, I don't know whether anyone here voted for me," he said.
