The budget also calls for these increases: 10.T millions for basic school aid to local districts, 7.3 millions for state institutions, 2.1 millions for welfare, and 7 mil lions for other state agencies. The budget calls for spending 2.5 millions for new buildings a decrease of about 10 millions from this biennium and in con trast to requests for 20 millions worth of college buildings and 10 millions for institution buildings. The 2.5 millions for buildings would provide matching funds for the proposed medical research center in Portland, some planning funds for Oregon Technical Insti tute, and a few small projects. SALEM (AP) Gov. Robert D. Holmes said today it would be "disastrous" if the Legislature fails to take steps to rebuild the state unemployment trust fund. He said he would recommend that the Legislature adopt the Ex perience Rating and Advisory Council's 17-point legislative pro gram. . . This program calls for increased employer taxes, . maintenance of an adequate reserve in the, fund. tightening up collections from em ployers, , further restrictions in benefits, and extension of cover age to virtually all employers. The council also recommended that the' three-member Unemploy ment Compensation Commission be replaced by a single employ ment commissioner. "Furthor delay in adopting measures to rebuild the trust fund and in making sure it stays ade quate would be disastrous," the governor said. "There is no doubt that legislators recognize this and will make it a prime considera tion at the coming session," Mrs. Cecilia P. Galey, chair man of the UCC and of the Ad visory Council, said the Council's program would "eventually return the fund to an adequate level. More important, it will establish a sound financing system one that will guard against dangerous low levels in the fund such as we are currently seeing, yet -will pre vent unnecessarily high accumula tions. The fund now totals only 27 mil lion dollars, and is expected to shrink much more during the win ter. Ten years ago, there was 85 millions in the fund. ' The payroll tax rates on em ployers would be increased by tax ing the first $4,200 of each work er's annual wages. Only the first $3,600 now is taxed. The tax rate now is 2.7 per cent.
