Musa, Barton Comment
On Legislative Session
(Editor's Not: United Press
temaliooal asked the Senate
president and House speaker to
comment on the special session
which begins Monday. Their
comments follow.) .
By Senate President Ben Musa
I anticipate the session will be
austere, short and harmonious.
We have a very specific man
date from our bosses, the vot
ers, to reduce the 19t3-65 budg
et, as originally adopted, by $60
million.
It is my hope this can be ac
complished without seriously in.
ejurisg necessary state services.
Tbe 90 dedicated nen and wo
men of (the legislature are well
. ware of their grave responsi
bility and will make a good ac
count of themselves, and all
with reasonable dispatch.
By Speaker Clarence Barton
It would be my hope that Die
special session of the legisla
ture will rapidly come to grips
wilh the problems at hand,will
confine its activities solely to0
these problems, will solve them
and adjourn. I
The immediate problem is to
reduce state expenditures, to
present state revenues. The gov.
ernor is not only permitted, but0
is presently required by law, to
cut spending in those areas
where he can, to the end that
outgo equals income. The attor
ney general has given an opin
ion that tile governor cannot re
duce basic school support with
out permission by the legisla
ture. Because of the fact that
basic school support comprises
about 40 per cent of the state's
budget, it is my personal opin
ion that '!., too, should be sub
ject to allotment control, other
wise the area where reductions
can be made is so small that
many unfortunate individuals
will suffer if the total reduction
in the budget must be made
from sources not including basic
school support.
My mail indicates that the
people of Oregon support educa
tion but they resent what they
call "frills" in education. People
in the field of public education
should commence trimming
their sails and eliminating these
frills. If this is done, basic

school support can be reduced
and education will not suffer in
fundamental essentials.
Many people indicate that they
feel a sales tax would solve Ore
gon's problems. It may well be
that it will help to solve them,
though this has not been the ex
perience in sales tax states. All
states have their financial prob
lems just as Oregon does, and
the method of taxation that is
used is not a panacea for these
problems. It would seem to me
that if the special session of the
legislature were to attempt to
write a sales tax bill, we would
also, at the same time, have to
rewrite the present income tax
Jaw completely and submit the
two proposals fb the people for
their vole.
I have never been an enthu
siast for a sales tax, and if it
is to be just another tax, my
opposition to it will be intensi
fied. I qucion whether or not
there is time in the special ses
sion to rewrite our entire tax
code so as to present a bal
anced new tax program to the
people. It would seem to me
that the course of wisdom would
be to leave this for the tax in
terim study committee, which
will have the time and oppor
tunity to do a workmanlike job
on tax reform rathera, than to at
tempt to accomplish this in the
hurry of the special session.
This is particularly true because
enactment of any new tax w ill,
in my judgment, require the
ultimate approval of the people
of Oregon and will not solve our
immediate problem of balancing
the governor's $404 million budg
et w ith approximately $342 mil
lion of revenues.
This is the principal task of
the special session. This we
should do and then adjourn.

Meany Vs. Reuther Conflict
May Erupt At Labor Session
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
AFL-CIO prepared today for its
8th anniversary convention with
a public display of harmony be

George Meany and Walter P.
Reuther.
But informed sources said the
conflict was not far below the
surface and might erupt at the
labor federation's convention
opening Thursday in New York
City.
Meany, AFL-CIO president,
has taken steps to minimize dis
sension over racial discrimina
tion in union ranks and internal
Disputes on job rights.
He and Reuther, auto work
ers' union president and widely
regarded as the second most
powerful AFL-CIO leader, also
agree on the need for increased
political action by labor in 1964
and the importance of reducing
unemployment.
Differ Over Dispute

Civil Rights, White House And 'Archaic Rules'
Draw Partial Blame For Congress' Slow Pace
WASHINGTON (UPII - Why (
has it taken the Senate so long
to accomplish so little?
Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, D
Conn., triggered a spate of
soul-searching oratory when he
charged that Democratic Lead
er Mike Mansfield, Mont., was
responsible for the Senate's
"dribbling" pace.
"If we're going to get about
our business, he's got to be a
leader and say no sometime,"
Dodd said. He did not spare
Republican Leader Everett M.
Dirksen. I'l He said the oppo
sition, "has aecome so compla
cent, so soft, so cozy that it
doesn't amount to much."
As is his custom, the mild
mannered Mansfield turned tiie
other cheek, insisting tiiat Co.-
gress' record required no apol
ogies. Dirksen blasted Dodd
and said the Connecticut Demo-;
crat was displaying "cerebral
incoherence."
The Dodd outburst and the
ensuing debate pointed up the
mounting frustration on Capitol
Hill over the legislative slow
down, however. It appears that
this session will end without fi
nal action on either'civil rights
or tax cut legislation the two
big issues President- Kennedy
wanted settled in 19fi3.
Mansfield and to a lesser
extent Dirksen are easy tar
gets, fellow senators say, but
neither should bear the blame
for tlie slowdown.
They say the blame should be
spread farther aficid the
White House, the House of Rep
resentatives, Southern lawmak
ers fighting civil rights legisla
tion, not to mention Oie Sen
ate's system of rules branded
"archaic" by liberals.
You can put 90 per cent of
it down to civil rights," one
veteran senator declared. "And
the blame belongs as much
downtown (the White House) a
in Congress."
Once President Kennedy
switched his 1963 program in
midstream and decided to push
for an omnibus civil rights bill
"a lot of people began to sit
on things," he said. That meant
a little delay here, an extra
