Economy In Government Mulled By Salem Solons By DICK HUMPHREY SALEM (VIM' - The Orecon legislature, well into its second week, is starling to do some real soul-searching over the problem oi economy in government. Most lCRislalois, both Reoubli- an and Democratic, seem to feel considerable public pressure against any now taxes which large-scale spending might entail 1 his was revealed in a nol of bolh House and Senate members But the problem is not that sim pie. As responsible men and worn n they also eel the pressure to provide needed programs and services, even though they cost money. Especially is this true in lields of education, building and welfare. Senate President Walter J. Pear son iD-Portlanct) stated the econo my case fairly bluntly when he said "The 1959 Legislature will not be a spending Legislature." Sen. Ben Musa ID-The Dallcs phrased it a little more ominously when he said this session "had better be economy minded!" Rep. Clarence Barton (D- Coquille) chairman ol the impor tant House Tax Committee, saw the problem ol economy was one forced upon the Legislature ol necessity" as far as fiscal mat ters were concerned. The feeling of the public was remarked by Rep. Pat J. Melke R-Bend when he said: "The November election was an economy mandate and responsible legislators must recognize this pattern." Both Reps. Betilah Hand iD- Milwaukici and Katherine Musa D-The Dalles i came out (or econ omv but wanted the State Lcgis latuie not to be penny wise and pound foolish." Sen. Monroe Swectland (D-Mil-waukiel approached the question cautiously stating thai the Legis lature should be economy-minded as all Legislatures should be. "But a sort of tax-hysteria has been stimulated which has be fogged the real tax situation. Along some lines Oregon should spend now to forestall greater costs lat ci," Sweetland said.

"Otherwise, why should we have Ir, spend so much now (propor tionately) to catch up with the short-sighted, penny pinching pol iews of past Republican adminis nations. "We are spending more now than we were, but that doesn t mean we're not interested in real economy," Skelton continued. "Was it real economy that kept us from spending sufficient amounts in education, so that now we have to increase spending more than average growth to catch up? Was it real economy to let the employers of this slate rob the! nemployment compensation fund! so that we now have to assess ourselves too much to keep the i fund from going broke?" Skel- on asked. And as a parting shot, he added: This may be the sort of ques- ion which will delight a Hal- legedly responsible press would ask such a damnedably irrespon sible question." Nonetheless, the poll showed that most legislators, both Demo cratic and Republican, had econo my in the back of their minds even though it has economy with reservations as they came tc grips with the problem of how to make Oregon run both humane ly and efficiently for the next two years.

Smith and Mitchelson went to court Monday to seek a citation Judge Gumpert told them to go back to their law books and una if there was legal precedent for holding Hayden in contempt with out service of an order.
