Legislators Eye
Liquor Revenues
PORTLAND UPI) - Legis
la tors are so hard pressed to
raise money that it has been
suggested distribution of liquor
revenues to cities and .counties
be halted. State Sen. Anthony
Yturri, R-Ontario, said Monday.
Yturri, tho Senate minority
leader, said he doubted such ac
tion would be taken. He de
scribed the suggestion as an ex
ample of lawmakers' "despera
tion" in their search ibr funds.

counties for the rest of the
biennium was estimated at $10
million.

SALEM (UPI) Twenty-one
of the 29 Republican House
members have voiced agree
ment with Gov. Mark Hatfield's
plan to cut basic school support,
and re-pass the $12 million one
shot speedup of withholding tax
collections.
:: House Minority Leader F. F.
Montgomery, Eugene, said the
COP caucus Sunday did not de
cide whether the legislature or
the governor should make the
cuts in basic school aid.
' Montgomery, who has been
calling for a sales tax to be
referred to the people, (aid the
Republicans agreed with the
legislative session should be
no bills to increases taxes now,
but that does not preclude con
sideration of a sales tax."
, : Montgomery said Die Repub
lican House members felt legis
lation at the Nov. 11 special
legislative session should be
confined to tho fiscal crisis. He
said only tho rules, ways and
means and taxation committees
should be activated.
: At a meeting Friday, 11 of the
Senate's 30 members said the
Senate Rules and Ways and
Means committees would be ac
tivated, and that the (ax com
tnittee would be placed on a

Yturri spoke to the league of
Oregon Cities here.
He said that if the legislature
did decide to keep the liquor
revenues the money would go
into the general fund. Cities and
counties might be partially
compensated for the loss by
more money from gas tax,
motor vehicle registration and
weight mile funds, he said.
Yturri said the latter slate
funds could be spent for
highway purposes only and
could not be used to help the
weakened general fund. At
present cities share 10 per cent,
counties 19 per cent and the
state 71 per cent in various
motor vehicle funds.
Dr. Richard Zettcll, a Cali
fornia Institute of Transporta
tion and Traffic Engineering of
ficial, told the league similar
funds in that state go IS per cent
to cities, 23 per cent to counties
and 61 per cent to the state.
Keynote speaker was Mayor
Arthur Naftalin of Minneapolis.
He said local government should
be freed from restrictions which
have placed them in a financial
"straitjackct." He suggested
legislative consolidation of local
government units, sharing of
state income with cities and
subsidization for either public or
private mass transportation sys
tems. Jet Crash

tossed back Into the national
spotlight by the barrage of sub

I where the demand for steel had
been on the decline.
Within two days the bulk of
the nation's other major steel
producers fell into line and
raised their tonnage price a
similar amount.
In a spectacular confrontation
between the Kennedy adminis
tration and "big steel" the steel
industry rescinded the price in
crease. The administration said at the
time the price hikes were not
in the country's best interests.
Since then the steel industry
held the line until last April and
additional price hikes were
made during the summer and
fall.
The spring price increases,
which were selective, actually
elicited some praise from the
administration for its restraint.
