By FRANK JENKINS
Good advice lor today:
Watch your change.
Don't take any wooden nickels
And-
If you're walking along the
street and see a nice, fat-looking
purse on the sidewalk, be
careful. Go a little farther than
that. Be CAGEY! Before picking
it up, scan it carefully to see il
it has a thread attached to it
by which it can be whisked away
before you can get your fingers
on it.
Before doing ANYTHING out of
the ordinary today, stop, look and
listen. Before acting, take the so
ber second thought.
Why all this caution?
This is APRIL FOOLS DAY.
If you were in London today
and did any of these things, there
would be a happily derisive laugh,
and somebody would shout APRIL
FOOL! If you were in Paris,
walking along the Champs Ely
sees, or the Rue Sainte Honore,
or the Rue de la Paix or any
where else, for that matter you
would hear the same derisive
laugh, but the words would be
POISSON D AVRIL, meaning
Apfil Fish.
If you were in Edinburg and
did something of the sort, you'd
be called a GOWK meaning a
cuckoo.
Why all this?
Nobody seems to be very sure
of the origin of it all. But its
very old. It just might be a relic
of the Roman festival of Cerealia,
held at the beginning of April.
The tale is that Proserpina was
sporting in the Elysian meadows,
and had just filled her lap with
daffodils, when Pluto snatched
her up and carried her off to the
lower world.
Her mother Ceres heard the
echo of her screams and went in
search of the voice she had heard.
But in vain. Her search w a s a
"fool's errand."
April is quite a month in his
tory and literature. Samuel Val
entine Cole, in his In April, says:
"In April, Rome was founded;
Shakespeare died;
"The shot whose sound rang out
from Concord town
"And brought an avalanche of
echoes down,
"Shaking all thrones of tyran
ny and pride,
"Was tired in April; Sumter far
and wide
"Lifted a voice the years v
never drown;
"Twas when they laid the
crown
"On Lincoln's brow."
Many of the most eventful pe
riods in the history of the Unit
ed States have begun in the
month of April.
Among these are the Revolu
tionary War, the Mexican War,
the War between the States, and
the entrance of the United States
into World War I. On April 14,
1865, Lincoln was shot by John
Wilkes Booth. Paul Revere made
his famous ride on April 18, 1775
The San Francisco earthquake
and fire was in April of 1906
Washington was inaugurated as
the first President of the United
States in April of 1789.
April, you sec, is QUITE
month.

Economists Predict
WASHINGTON 'LTD Twenty
five economists have taken a long
look into tlie year 2,000 and come
up with a forecast of a U. S. pop

a bountiful economy for everyone.
The forecast was contained In
a 1.000 word report issued today
by a research foundation called
Resources for the Kuturc, Inc.
The report represents five years
of work financed by Ford Foun
dation grants.
The economists predicated their
forecast on a lew big its, how

the cold war will continue for the
next 40 years at approximately
the present temperature and that
there will be no major depression
during that time to scar the econ

Legislature Takes
With 'Do Nothing'
SALEM (UPD - Legislative
leaders today stoutly denied this
was a ao nouung legislature
and charged Gov. Mark Hatfield
was creating a "straw man issue"
on higher education.
The comments were in answer
to charges by Hatfield Saturday
before the State Building Trades
Council at Klamath Kails.
Hatfield warned of a possible
$5 million cut in higher educa
tion's budget, and said "there is
still time to snatch higher educa
tion from the jaws of devasta
tion ..."
House Speaker Clarence Barton
and Senate President Ben Musa
refuted the governor's charges.
Barton said: "Nothing has tak
en place in Ways and Means to
indicate such a cut. No sugges
tions have been made to cut back
on 4-H, agricultural research, or
the quality of education. Nor is
this the desire of Ways and
Means."
Musa commented: "Ways and
Means is simply asking 'do we
need this? Is it necessary'." When
we pass the budget we ll know
what the money is going for.
That is our job."
Barton said the governor
thought it "good finance" when
the Department of Finance
Public Aid
Inaugurates
Birth Plan
CHICAGO iUPI The Illinois
Public Aid Commission (1PAC)
today inaugurated its plan to
pay for birth control for mothers
on relief without . jjaitin? tor the
outcome- of a battle within the
legislature to outlaw the plan
Action by the legislature was
stalled until alter Easter, and
there were indications that t h e
battle would move into the courts
Spokesmen for the organizations
of Chicago Mayor Richard J
Daley and of Benjamin S. Adam
owski, the Republican seeking
Daley's office in Tuesday's city
election, both threatened to seek
court injunctions to force an end
to the program almost as soon
as it began.
Critics said taxpayers were be
ing forced to subsidize illicit sex.
Some said the plan was a step
toward legalized abortion and
mercy killing.
IPAC Chairman Arnold H.
Marcmont, a Chicago industrialist
who first proposed the policy last
fall, countered that it was im
moral to ignore the picas of the
poor for help in preventing the
birth of unwanted, illegitimate
children.
Marcmont called the policy
"one of the most significant pub
lic aid measures everidopted by
any stat."
Maremont's plan was aimed pri
marily at the 60.000 mothers re
ceiving aid to dependent children
allowances. Nearly three-fourths
of these women are widowed, di
vorced or unmarried. They re
ceive nearly $12 million a month
in tax money for themselves and
their children.
Maremont had tlie tacit backing
of Gov. Otto Kerncr. Democrat
Kerner meticulously kept his opin
ions on birth control to himself,
but he had been outspoken in his
praise of Maremont and the prog
ress of the commission in trying
to solve public aid problems.
World
wage earners will be paying taxes
on a national budget of half a tril
lion dollars a year.
The aim surplus will still be
with us.
The experts foresaw no "gener
al running out of resources dur
ing the remainder of the century,
or (or a long time thereafter." But
they stressed that the good lilc
lor tlie year 2.000 will depend on
wise use of resources.
Water was seen as one of the
major resource problems of the
(uturc. The experts said a serious
water shortage threatens in tlie
western United States. The West,
they explained, has only a fifth as
much water as the East "but its
withdrawal depictions are four
times as large."
The East also will have water
problems, however, involving pol
lution. Increased storage capacity
trimmed millions from agency re
quests. "But when the legislature
trims, it is called budget assassi
nation." Both Barton and Musa said this
was the "hardest working" legis
lature they have seen.
Barton said he applauded recent
action by the Board of Higher
Education to increase academic
standards for out of state stu
dents. 'We don't want our colleges to
become a dumping ground for the
dregs that cannot enroll in schools
in their home states. We don't
want a bunch of simple simons
Hatfield Optimistic
For CD Plan Salvage
SALEM lUPD-Gov. Mark Hat
field said today he was "still op
timistic" he could salvage a work
able civil defense organization.
Hatfield told a news conference
the "program" was more impor
tant than Scci(ic money amounts.
The Ways and Means Commit
tee last week voted to slash the
present 18-man agency to a three
member staff attached to Hie gov
ernor's office.
The governor had asked funds
for a 20-man agency.
Hatfield cited budget cuts made
by the legislature for the Racing
Commission, auctioneers, civil
service, Marine Board, Supreme
Court, treasurer, library, and
others. He said he signed the re
duced appropriations because we
can live within them. '
"Basic Programs"
"We're talking in terms of basic
programs, not in dollars alone,"
he said. i
,Hc. denicMhe was :making t
"straw man issue" of higher cdu
eation's budget, as was charged
by House Sieaker Clarence Bar
ton.
He said higher education Chan
cellor Roy E. Licuollcn had been
alerted by Ways and Means co-
chairmen, Sen. Ward took and
Rep. Ross Morgan to plan for a
$5 million budget cut. ,
"1 termed this a probability in
my Klamath Kalis speech," Hat-
licld said.
"It indicates to me that the pre
siding officers are not in close
contact with working committee
members."
He said basic policy decisions
for higher education should be
based on "sound educational pol
icy, not merely on a budget ap
proach.
Not "Dumping Ground"
He also denied Oregon was a
dumping ground" for "the
dregs" who could not gain
trance to their home slate col
leges.
He said "our first obligation Ls
to Oregon students. I do not feel
we have sufficient scholarship aid
to meet our own needs."
The comments were in answer
to charges by Barton that low
academic requirements allowed
poor quality out of state students
to crowd Oregon colleges. Barton
had suggested scholarship aid for
"outstanding" out of slate stu
dents.
Hatfield again blasted the
"snails pace action" of the legis
lature. He said tlie present legis
lature had passed about 70 bills
so far, and that previous sessions
by this time had passed out more
than 100 bills.
"The legislative pay bill shows
they can act with speed if they
want to," he added.

said.
But Barton said "outstanding"
out of state students should be
encouraged to attend Oregon in
stitutions. He said he favored pro
viding scholarship assistance for
such "outstanding" students.
Musa charged Hatfield "twists
the truth," and claims credit for
gains made by the legislature.
The Senate president said the Tax
Court was a result of a 14-ycar
drive in the legislature, but that
when it became a reality that
Hatfield attempted to take all the
credit.
Hatfield said he had received
very good" backing from the
Republican leadership and singled
out minority leaders Rep. K. F.
Montgomery and Sen. Anthony
Yturri, and Sen. Walter Lcth for
praise.
He did not criticize the many
public hearings being conducted
by the legislature. "You can't
have sound legislation without
hearings," he told reporters.
Two Secure
