Brown says the 1 states record budget is not per- feet but is as close as he felt (i nancial planners could come. Brown, aware of criticism by the State Chamber of Commerce and labor unions, said protests agamst proposed tax increases on high incomes, beer and ciearettes showed a lack of desire to face needs. " The protests show this lack of desire at both ends of the social pole to face up to the fiscal needs of the state." Brown told a news conference Thursday. "We've done everything we can to bring auster ity and efficiency. I don't claim the budget is perfect, but it's as close as we felt we could come to what is right." i ne governor said he was against any trimming of water de velopment expenses as one way to cut spending "Unless the water problem is solved. Southern California's growth would be stopped within four or five years." he said. "You have water to take you beyond tbis point, but the effect would be felt early. Brown termed "ridiculous" con tentions that some industries would move out of California be cause of higher taxes, but he did say he felt a state economic de velopment agency should be set up in order to bring defense work to the state He also, said he would present a new program to the Legislature next week designed to utilize all the state s resources.

Cold Stings The Midwest By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A new cold wave, iust as bitter and unwelcome as the old one last weekend, stung the Midwest to day. Frigid air blanketed most ol the country's midsection. It was 30 degrees below zero in northern Minnesota, and it was near zero as far south as northern Arkansas. Snow added to the win try chill from northern Arkansas and southern Missouri into Ten nessee and southern Kentucky. It was freezing in northern ' sections of the Gull states. Most of the Eastern and South ern sections were out of the cold air pocket. But the icy air ap peared headed through the Ohio Galley and into the Middle Atlan tic states and New England as well as the western Gulf region. More than five inches of snow covered Fayetteville, Ark., and storms swept across parts of the Middle Missouri and Ohio Valleys Thursday and continued during the night in some areas. Snow flurries flecked the Appa lachians, and light snow and flur rics tell in the Great Lakes region from northern Indiana northward through northern Michigan. The snow cover at Houghton, Mich., was 46 inches. Light snow also was reported in the northern Rockies, adding one inch to the 37 inches already on the ground at West Y'ellow- stone, Mont.

Garrett innocent Thursday on charges of being a "lewd and dis solute person. Garrett. 42, was accused of fond ling Mrs. Kathleen Johnson after administering tranquilizers and hormones that allegedly proved sexually stimulating. The jury deliberated two hours and took two ballots before reach ing the decision. Last October, a jury found Gar ret innocent of similar charges in volving three other former pa tients.

More than 3.000 exhibitors, breeders and consignors and tueir wives from seven western states have crowded into this Northern California city for the nationally Known event. lift Ml Ml i I To Plug Leaks Boat Measure tural seeks to supplant overlap ping local regulations on small boats with a uniform statewide safety and registration code. Lawrence McDowell, Long Reach Harbor official, took issue with a section of the bill requiring local regulations to conform to those adopted by the California Division of Small Craft Harbors McDowell said he felt the rul ings of an appointed board might thus "infringe on the rights of locally elected authorities. Alan-M. Firestone, chief deputy city attorney of San Diego, went even further at the Senate interim committee hearing. Firestone said any attempt to apply statewide laws to Mission Bay and San Die go Bay "would result in confusion incapable of proper admimstra tion." Arthur W. Nordstrom, assistant city attorney of Los Angeles, said he felt that legislation designed to govern small craft is esscn tially ill-adapted for commercial harbors. Nordstrom said specific exemp tion of commercial vessels from the proposed boating code "would be a big step forward. Erie Wright, Stockton, said the California Wildlife Federation wanted the inclusion of a "litter- bug" clause, "in the line of good housekeeping and good practice." to prevent the dumping of debris into water. R. D. Sweeney, former presi dent of the Los Angeles Harbor Commission, called Cunningham's measure "a fine bill" though he thought local control of speed and port use should be reinforced. "That can be done without killing the whole bill," Sweeney said. Sen. John J. Hollister Jr. 'D Goleta), chairman at the hearing, indicated a number of the objec tions would be ironed out in the bills. Trio Killed In Air Crash OAKLAND. Calif.
