We could sure use the extra money. We , have many friends who' manage this way and they have new cars, boats and luxuries that we'll never be able to afford on my salary. My wife has a washing ma chine and a vacuum cleaner, still she claims she's bushed from the housework and laundry. I say the cost of living is so high, these days It takes two pay checlta If people are going to enjoy any extras. Please tell my wife to stop making excuses and go get her self some work.-DlSGUSTED Dear Disgusted: A woman who has five young children, doesn't aeed to make excuses she's got work, and plenty of it at home. So your wife has a washing machine and a vacuum sweeper big deal. How would YOU like to take on another full-time Job? Well, that's .exactly what you're asking her to do. Quit trying to get the old mare to pull a dou ble load and give her a band 1th her present duties. She can probably use It. Dear Ann Landers: I'm 18 years old and I've been going steady with a girl .who will be 17 . next month. She's been nagging me to get married but I feel I'm too young to take on the responsibili ties of a husband.

DICK Dear Dick: Yeah I. know ex actly what you mean and this Is a fine time to be asking the score. No fellow can t tnrrrA into a marriage regardless of the clr cumstances. You have an obllga tion, however, to take care of the girl and support the baby and there are laws to see that you do. I urge you to slay In school and get "your diploma whether you marry or not. It looks as If you're going to have some finan clal responsibilities starting soon, and a fellow who is not a high school graduate will find mighty slim pickings in the Job market. Dear Ann Landers: We live in a medium-sized city. A man here who gets into all sorts of trouble, with the law has the same name as my husband. It is a terrible embarrassment to us whenever his name appears in the paper, which is often. He has been arrested for drunken driving, fighting in taverns and petty larceny. The paper prints his name and address but we feel they should also say "Not the John Jones who is employed at the X Com. pany." The paper refuses to do this. Can we insist on grounds that this other man is ruining our rcpu lation? INNOCENT VICTIMS Dear Victims: The newspaper should make the proper distinc tion by printing the man's ad dress. A newspaper can't identify Individuals by stating who he is NOT. V. KERNS NEW FOR 1961!

However, the truckers said they wanted to learn just how this would affect their so-c ailed "grandfather rights." These are the established rights of an op erator who has been in the area a long time. The log haulers also voiced support again for a miminum raie regulation, a provision ior this was vetoed by Oov. MarK 0. IHatfield after the last session. The committee, created by the 1959 legislature to keep a close watch on state spending, said "consideration shquld be given to reducing the present number of; employes. . . It said that in 1938, Oregon had 107.7 state employes per 10.000 population, compared to a na tional average of 75.7. Eveq allowing for the fact that Oregon has a high level of slate services, the figure appears to be unusually large, the report said. It recommended that a com. plete study be made to measure the work output of state em ployes, with a view toward reduc ing the number. The committee said that state lias 24jOOO employes, compared to 20,500 five years ago. It spent $138 million for salaries in the 1957-58 biennium, compared to $260 millioq asked by Gov. Hat field for the 1961-62 period. It agreed with Gov. Hatfield that state employe salaries must be increased to keep the stale workers in their jobs. But it said that if the legislature goes. fur this it should - attach- a" string that the work measurement study I be made. . . ' The committee said that st a t e revenues would total at least $330 million in the next biennium, in stead of the. $320 ' million -esti mated by the governor,' Adding the $40 million surplus, this means the legislature would have $370 million to spend at this scs sion. The governor recommends spending $359 million. The committee said that for the past decade, the legislature has underestimated revenues. The 195!) legislature figured that the state general fund would be broke by next July 1, instead of having $40 million left over. It said that Gov.' Hatfield fol lowed the same old pattern in underestimating revenues. Gary W. Burt In Landing Team Marine Pfc. Gary W. Burt, son of Mr. and Mrs. V. L.

A preliminary monthly report from the- Department of Water Resources showed today that ear ly w inter rains . and snow had brought a slight increase in thc amotint of water, in Northern Cal ifornia . reservoirs, especially at Shasta Dam. : ' - But the picture was worse farth er down Central Valley. - Water storage at Folsom Dam went down 64,000 acre-feet to about one-third of capacity to) the last three works.. Continuing drops in reservoirs and the water table may peril pear and apple or chards in Uie foothills, according to a farm spokesman."

Jim Faught. speaking for the truckers, called for adoption of the minimum rate protection for log haulers. ' . "If you give us the same rates and protection as freight truckers get, we don't mind paying," the Roseburg man said. State Sen. Al Glegel. D-Rose-burg, said that none of the bills were a good deal unless all three are passed. He said that just what scope of operation is per mitted is also important. "This is real important be cause the log trucker is a no mad," Flcgel said. "He goes where the logs are." Faught said that if the flat rate option were repealed he would have lost money because his taxes would have been upped hv about 18 000 last vear. J ' ... ' Faught gave chairman Anthony Yturri, R-Ontario, his books and figuring for the committee record to prove his point. Yturri told Faught he could nrovide copies instead if he wished. "Copies?" exclaimed Faught, "I've been up for four nights making these." This drew a chuckle from the partisan audi ence. Robert Knight, managing di rector of the Oregon Truckers Association, testified in support of repeal of the flat rate option for log' haulers. Knight said it allowed one seg ment to pay less than the rest of the truckers. Stale Sen. Richard Grocner, D Milwaukie, pointed out that the segment Knight represents gets rate protection and has certifi catcs of necessity. This drew applause from the log haulers. John E. Erickson, superintend ent of the revenue division for the public utility commissioner's office, said that the flat fee pro vision saved log haulers about $750,000 last year.

Timber to sat isfy this amount has been sold by the forest, but the slump of the lumber- market in I960 caused tim ber operators to reduce the rate of cutting which resulted in the total cut being under the allow able cut. :r . :. - -." : T WHAT'S IN A NAMEf EAST MOLINE, 111.
