Brown Lauds
State Budget
LOS ANGELES IL'PI) Gov
I tdmund G. 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.

BALTIMORE (AP)-A 55 mil

The Kentucky will be towed into
Baltimore today. She is a victim
of the times and 'mishaps.
They couldn't finish her in time
for World War II. It ended too
soon. So work on her stopped.
Then she was to get a new lease
on life. She was to become a mis
sile carrier in a new age.
But when the battleship Wiscon
sin was damaged in a collision
m 19o6. the Kentucky had to give
up ner dow to make the Wisconsin
whole again.
After that the unfinished battle
wagon had all she could take. She
just laid around the Newport

She's being sold by the Navy
to the Boston Metals Co. for

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.
