TELEVISION IN REVIEW By RICK DU BROW HOLL-yWOOD (UPD-CBS- TV struck gold Monday night in the search for adaptations of children's stories, with an original tongue-in-cheek musical version of "Jack and the Beanstalk" by the Prince Street Players of New York. This repertory company, which will be displayed on CBS- TV again Feb. 13 in "Pinoc chio," represents without question an opportunity for the network to fortify its supply of children's tales in a bountiful and tasteful way. For as CBS-TV notes, the Prince Street troupe has a repertoire of 10 children's stories "in new musical dress" and has "gained recognition for its presentations of beloved fairy stories in suburban theaters in New York, Milwaukee and Massachusetts." High Rtting "Jack and the Beanstalk" and "Pinocchio" were broadcast last season on the CBS-TV station in New York City. And, says the network, "the decision to present them to a nationwide prompted by the high critical and viewer ac It was good judgment aU around.

For although Monday night's hour got off to a bit of a slow start in the manipulations that prompted Jack up the beanstalk, it soon took off as a fast and delightfully cuckoo show when he encountered the whimsical, zany giant who was as perfect a villain as any children's or adult's tale could have. The giant was played by a gentleman named Will B. Able, and he really was wonderful, song, dance and fast-fast vaudeviUe-style delivery of a line, and in his good nature overall. His tango number. Take A Giant Step," with his tiny, deadpan housekeeper (Dorothy Greener) was charming.

And a razzmatazz music hall number, "Oh, Them Golden Eggs," by the giant's golden goose (Marcie Strmger) was a wildly appropriate showstopper. The show was conceived and written by a gentleman named Jim EUer. Merry Christmas, Mr. Eiler. Scrooge's View On the other hand, bah humbug to ABC-TV for its new, running beauty a a nt.

Don't get me wrong. LOVE Christmas. Brown urges Reagon fo seek fax increase By NORMAN KEMPSTER United Press Intsrnational S.ACRAMENTO. Calif. (UPI) Edmund G.

Brown, with less than two weeks left in office, is urging Ronald Reagan to fight for a tax increase instead of trying to balance the budget through deep cuts in spending. Arbitrary budget reductions. Brown warned, could wreck many vital state programs. He urged Reagan to show the courage to get in there and make an analysis of what needs to be done and then fight for it." A tax increase may be unpopular. Brown said, but it is necessary.

The Democratic governor delivered a "farewell" address Monday night to a capacity audience at a SlO-a-plate testimonial dinner. Brown said shortly after he was defeated Nov. 8 in his bid for a third term that he would never again seek elective office. But he was cheered Mon day when he said, "When you have been in government 23 years, you're not ready to call it quits when you're as young as I am." He did not elaborate. But he said he would speak out in retirement "when I believe the well-being of the state I love is threatened." Brown said California's taxes are not excessive although "too much of the burden is being carried by property taxpayers." He -offered to support Reagan if the Republican governor-elect proposes a property tax reform program to the legisla ture.

But Brown said he was opposed to Reagan's stated aim of reducing a budget deficit by cutting spending. "Arbitrary cuts in a budget may pull a corporation through a had business year," he said. It probably would make it stronger in the long run. But government's only product is service. And services can only suffer when cuts in a budget are made across the across the regard to the long-run impact of such action.

'The quality of government is not measured by any profit and-loss sheet." Brown said Reagan has already ordered state agencies "to hold budgets for fiscal 196768 to this year's levels." "If that order is carried out, California's university and state colleges would, for the first time in history, turn away qualified students from their classrooms." He said the order would also cripple mental health, rehabilitation of welfare recipients and other programs. Brown also said he has been rising at 5 a.m. every morning to study the cases of the 62 convicts awaiting execution at San Quentin. Although no execution dates are pending during the final days of his administration. Brown could grant clemency if he chose.

The governor gave no indication he would commute any of the sentences but he repeated his opposition to the whole concept of capital punishment. He said the death penalty is "a waste of time and a waste of money."

The superior court suit, filed Monday, accused producer Roger Corman and American International pictures of making a film "of the most repulsive, distorted and prurient sort.

The suit was filed in behalf of 22 members of the organization by attorney Jeremiah Cas selman. It charged that the motorcycle organization was portrayed "as being a vicious, degenerate, lawless and thoroughly depraved group of persons whose activities are illegal, wrongful and menacing to public morals." The club members said that last February Corman agreed to make the picture factual and not put them in any disrepute. Instead, they claimed, the film is full of "false and derogatory implications" which have made it unsafe for members to be ia public places without protection. Court Commissioner Florence M. North.

The accounting itemized that many of the holdings were mortgaged and more than 8300,000 unpaid income taxes was due. Miss Adams said she paid 530,000 for her own separate property on tax debts and the estate paid but there still was more than unpaid. Even the $16,184 listed as still being left in the estate is being held in reserve to pay off-more debts. Miss Adams said. The comedian's mother had charged that Miss Adams had "mismanaged, wasted and concealed" assets of the estate.

Kovacs died when his car skidded out of control on wet pavement and wrapped around a Beverly Hills telephone pole. By GEORGE J. MARDER United Internatisnal WASHINGTON (UPI) -The new Republican-flavored 90th Congress apparently is ready to give President Johnson almost anything he wants to press the war in Vietnam, including money to escalate the fighting if he deems necessary. Members also are in a mood to sacrifice butter for guns. A poll by United Press Interna- tonal disclosed overwhelming sentiment for cutting back on domestic spending before even considering a possible tax increase.

Possibly remembering Johnson's unsuccessful fight tor "open housing" in the last Congress, the legislators also said by a similar lop-sided margin that they see no current need for new civil rights measures. One hundred and sixty two members a third of the Congress to the poll. Seventy five identified themselves as Democrats and 72 as Republicans. The other 15 declined to be identified. The returns also came from all sections of the nation from the East, 46 from the South, 38 from the Midwest and 31 from the West.

There was no way of identifying the geographic origins of the 15 unsigned responses. Here are the questions and replies: Would you vote necessary money to continue the war in Vietnam at present levels? Yes 155; No Doubtful 2 Would you vote increased funds to escalate the war in Vietnam if the President considered such action necessary? Yes 129; No 10; Doubtful 23 Do you believe taxes should be raised to prosecute the war and combat inflation? Yes 40; No 106; Doubtful 16 Would you favor curtailing domestic programs such as the War on Poverty as an alternative to a tax increase? Yes 126; No 26; Doubtful 10 Do you think any civil rights legislation is needed at this point? Yes 46; No 102; Doubtful 14 On the war in Vietnam, the Congress clearly seemed ready! to foUow although there was some reluctance on escalation. Most members answered with a simple "yes" to the question whether they would vote funds to step up the fighting. However, a significant number wrote in a "qualified yes" or "with reluctance, probably yes." Rep. Peter H.

Frelinghuysen. R-N. put it this way: "Yes. but strongly hope such request will not be made." Some members hoped escalation would shorten the war. Others made clear they would not favor escalation to the point of using nuclear weapons.

Only a few went against the tide of giving tlie President all tlie money needed to continue or intensify the fight. Only seven (5 no; 2 undecided) had reservations about providing funds at existing levels. A total of 33 yes 10 no; 23 undecided expressed reservations about following the President's lead on escalation. House Republican leader Gerald Ford of Michigan was among those who would support escalation. But Ford insisted that "if increased military funds are needed there must be even more substantial reduction in domestic spending." He said there "also must be a tightening of control of Aid spending in Vietnam." There was overwhelming sentiment for belt-tightening on Great Society spending while the United States is fighting the war in Vietnam.

More than 80 per cent of those who replied favored curtailment of domestic spending as an alternative to a tax increase. But the figures alone do not tell the full story. Unsolicited comments pointed up the mood of Congress to sacrifice butter in favor of more guns. Rep. James R.

Grover, R-N. summed it up this way with the scribbled notation: "no guns and butter." He underlmed the word "and." War on Poverty programs were favorite targets of Republicans. "Favor curtailing domestic programs such as the war on poverty." wrote Senator Len. B. Jordan of Idaho.

Some democrats sought to protect Great Society projects from the economy axe, but' even they were a minority. "I would favor curtailmg certain domestic programs (not the war on poverty)," wrote Rep. William S. Moorhead of Pennsylvania. "I would prefer a tax increase to inflation." "Curtail public works; not Mr.

Johnson's lead, i the war on poverty," wrote Sen. William Proxmire, D-Wis. Republican Sen. Jacob K. Javits of New York ex-pressed himself similarly.

"Taxes should he raised," he said, "so that domestic programs are not curtailed. A substantial number believed both cuts in domestic spending and tax increases would be voted by the new Congress. "I believe both curtailment and tax mcreases are required," wrote Rep. Glenn R. Davis, "I will not vote for the taxes without assurances of the curtaihnent." "The question may not be 'either or' but 'both'." huysen wrote.

"A combuiation of the two with a guarantee of reduced spending before voting a tax increase," replied Rep. Roger C. B. Morton, R-Md. There seemed to be nearly unanimous sentiment for a review of spending before increasing taxes although a handful insisted that the U.

S. economy could provide guns as well as butter. Rep. Wright Patman. wrote that neither tax increases nor cuts in domestic spending were required "at the present time or for the foreseeable future." Sen.

Philip A. Hart, said that "with prosperity putting tax collections at a record rate, it seems to me that domestic programs can be continued without a tax increase." Several senators singled out foreign aid spendmg as a place where cutting can be done before mcreasing taxes. The poll pointed to the apparent futility of any new struggle over civil rights legislation in the next Congress. The lawmakers were asked whether they would vote for any restriction on the sale or rental of housing. Many house members pointed out that they had voted for a limited ban on racial discrimination in housing last session.

But more than 63 per cent who responded felt there was no need for any civil rights legislation next year. (Tomorrow: The "Hawk" Congress) Didn't Trip Magellan did not actually sail around the world.

A Children burned in trailer fire at Lompoc LOMPOC (UPD-Four chil dren playing around a Christmas tree were fatally burned Monday night when flames swept their trailer home and drove back rescue attempts by their mother. The mother, Mrs. Sandra Kay Moon, 21, was visiting a neighbor when another neighbor noticed flames froming from the two bedroom trailer home.

Mrs. Moon sped to her home and opened the door in hopes of reaching the youngsters. But smoke and flames spewing from the living room prevented the mother or neighbors from reaching the children. Firemen responded from their station only a few blocks away and quenched the blaze within minutes. The bodies of the four little girls, Debra, 5, Dannette, 3, La Donna, 2, and La Vonda, 4 months, were found huddled around the charred Christmas tree and burned gifts.

Firemen said the blaze apparently started in the living room where the children were playing but there was no indication of the cause. The children's father, Clinton, 27, was at work at the nearby Vandenberg Air Force Base at the time of the fire. Mrs. Moon is employed by the Lompoc Rec ord. A number of changes bound fo fake place in Europe By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Inevitably, changes are coming to Western Europe.

Although steadfastly denied in Washington, one possible change is a gradual reduction of U.S. forces in Germany. Another is improvement of relations between France and West Germany under the latter's new Chancellor Kurt- Georg Kiesinger and a third will be West German moves toward closer relations with Communist bloc nations to the east. Akeady taking place is the move of the North Atlantic Treaty Alliance (NATO) headquarters to Belgium, brought on by President Charles de Gaulle's determination to follow a course independent of NATO and to diminish United States influence in Europe. But while he is effectively removing U.S.

bases from France, it already may be said he has failed in his main goal and that this is a change that will not occur. Taking the changes one by one, there are a number of reasons why tlie United States might find it both possible and necessary to reduce U.S. manpower in Europe. An important one is that feelers already are being put out for a reduction ot forces on both sides of the line but not on a man-for-man basis. The Soviets maintain 22 divisions on their side of the line, and the Germans already have said they could not accept a withdrawal of three Soviet divisions in exchange for a similar reduction in U.S.

forces. The fact that feelers have been put out, however, is a beginning. The maintenance of large U.S. forces in West Germany has complicated the U.S. balance of payment problem, with gold flowing out faster than it is commg in.

The Germans have notified the United States they cannot give the help it demands for troop maintenance whatever the U.S. goH problem may be. Further, there are Gen. William C. Westmoreland's demands for more manpower and resources in South Vietnam.

If the U.S. is not to extend the draft, then it must find its manpower somewhere else. Germany would seem to be a natural source. So far as West Germany 's relations with France and Eastern Europe are concerned, a clue rests in the membership of Kiesinger's cabmet. Willy Brandt, foreign minis, ter in the new Christian Democrat-Socialist setup, long has made known his view that the way to eventual reunification of Germany lies in an improvement of contacts with the East, including East Germany.

Franz-Josef Strauss, a onetime defense minister and now fmance minister, is known as a leader of the Gaullist wing of the Christian Democrats. He will press for closer relations with France even if it means some loosening of ties with the United States. But it is noteworthy that in. all of Western Europe not one leader, besides De Gaulle, even would consider a meeting on European security which would include the Soviet Union and not the United States, Aside from the lofty De, Gaulle and whether or not a war threat exists, not one believes that Europe alone can counter-balance the. mighty weight of Russia..
