Todav Bennett's recording of Sadie's "I Wanna be Around" is moving toward the top of tlie best-seller charts. Sadie is grateful to Mercer, be cause Johnnv wrote the music and lyrics but gave her credit as cocomposer and split the royal ties with her on 50-50 basis. "He is a most unselfish man." Sadie said of .Mercer. "To me he was a person you could talk to." Wealth on Way Sadie's song sold 15,000 copies the first day it was released.

SACRAMENTO iLPM State Finance Director Hale Champion and the state chamber of commerce were millions of dol lars apart tixlay on the financial condition of California. I Leslie D. Howe, tax department lirector for the chamber, told the Assembly Ways and Means Com mittee Momlav: "The need is pressing to make a major reduction in the proposed 13-m general fund budget. With out such action, Californians' tax payments will le increased con- iiiciabiy . . . hy larger tax in creases in the following years." But Champion fired back that the chamber was being "unreal istic" and its projections of state income and expenditure were "tin- related to the specifics of state budgeting and lacking in under standing of the state's program requirements." Howe said bluntlv that California needs to improve its business cli mate and warned against "con stant tinkering with the tax sys tern to meet recurring fiscal crises." Suggesting a minimum cut in state spending of JiiO million, Howe told Ihe committee that un less there is a significant slow down, the gap in the 15-flfl gen oral fund budget will be more than U.S. Bureau of Census date showed that combined Mate and local taxes in California are the higltest in the nation on a per capita basis.
