8 Great Falls Trihune Ty Mh 20, 197.1 Use of funds clarified House holds money bills in face of shaky budget by school administrator year, districts were asked to ions, and elective offices. Also in House hands is the coal-tax bill, the only major new revenue producer of the Democratic administration and legislature. By a 62-28 vote, the House overrode the veto of Gov. Thomas L. Judge of a bill that would give parole officers pay raises of 16-24 per cent.

Judge said the bill would supersede the 5 per cent pay raises anticipated by the Board of Pardons and Would force the board "to set aside plans to hire six additional officers at a time when they are badly needed." "I'm madder than you know what," said Majority Whip John C. Hall, D-Great Falls, in asking that the veto be set aside. Hall contended throughout the session that parole of- tax on strip-mined coal, had increased the budget deficit by $1.65 million. As of the close of the 67th legislative day, additional revenue of $5.9 million was needed just to have the next biennium end with neither deficit nor surplus and to fully finance the state's share of the School Foundation Program. Latest official estimates of revenue and expenditures show that even by shorting the Foundation Program by $5.45 million in state aid the cash-drawer would be in the red by $538,720 on June 30, 1975.

In addition to the Long-Range Building Program bill, the House has in effect temporarily impounded bills appropriating operating funds for the Montana University System, all departments of state government except institut VHr 4 By J.D. HOLMES Associated Press Writer HELENA (AP) Upon being told that the proposed 1973-75 budget for state government now is out of balance by $5.9 million, the Montana House voted Monday to delay final action on all appropriation and building bills. The request to hang on to the remaining money bills, including four of the major appropriations plus the long-range building legislation, came from Chairman Francis Bardanouve of the Finance and Claims Committee. The Harlem Democrat told the House the fiscal picture had worsened since Saturday when he reported income was $4.3 million short of matching outgo in the next biennium. He said the Senate, by reducing the House-passed No deals' MISSOULA (AP) U.S.

District Judge Ray McNichols ordered Monday that the case of Earl W. Mar-tell be severed from that of other defendants in the University of Montana work-study conspiracy trial. Later in the day Martell said charges against him are being dismissed but emphatically denied "turning state's evidence to'save my own neck." Martell said charges are being dismissed "because they were not true." His attorney, Sam E. Had- classes for emotionally disturbed students." The educational adjustment classes were federally funded originally, but the cost was assumed by the district after the initial federal funding expired. Continuing, Findley stated, "The facts used (during the hearing) were 1971-72 figures which were accumulated by the governor's budget.

Prior to the 1971-72 school year, school districts had not been asked to account for monies provided by the State Foundation Program for specific areas in the general fund budget. "As Sen. Zody stated, there is no law which states that all monies given to districts because they have special education programs have to be used entirely for those programs. Additional state support funds from the Foundation Program have been provided as incentive money so that school districts would provide special education programs. "During the 1971-72 school year, concern began to develop in the Office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction about this program.

During 1972, the department of special education in the state superintendent's office developed new program and budgeting procedures in order to determine more realistic formulas for state support and district accountability. "School boards and special education people around the state generally agree that if the intent of the present law is that all such monies should be spent for special education, then the state support formulas need some study. "For the 1973-74 school at trial, says STUDENT SHOW Karen Caldwell, 910 3rd Ave. a fifth grader, shows off her dolls from around the world in a student directed hobby show at Lar-gent School. Mike Potter, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Robert Potter, 519 5th Ave. was general chairman of the event which Bonita Tilton, principal said included exhibits by 40 students. Hearings are scheduled in Ferda justice court day from Weissman's Yard, Third Avenue South and Fourth Street. The courst set bail at $1,000.

Daniel J. Matye, 37, 3004 3rd Ave. NW, was fined $50 when he pleaded guilty to making false statements to obtain unemployment benefits. The court also ordered Matye to make restitution for $62. A suspended 6-month county jail term was ordered for Cheryl Malabanan, 19, 113 Park Drive, who pleaded guilty Friday to a third-degree assault charge.

She was charged with assaulting Kenneth Gary Dyer. A School Dist. 1 administrator has replied to claims that school districts are diverting state funds for education of the handicapped to other areas of school budgeting. Dr. William Findley, supervisor of special education, issued a statement in reply to a Saturday Tribune story in which Sen.

A. A. Zody, D-Glendive, accused districts of diverting the funds during debate on a special education bill, HB386. "School Dist. 1 was pointed out as one of several districts guilty of such action," Findley said.

"The article stated that School Dist. 1 of Cascade County has diverted certain funds to areas other than special education. The information used in the article presumable reflected only direct cost such as salaries and instructional materials, for it does not correspond with district records. "It evidently did not take into account shared costs within the district. If a special education class or classes are located in a school building, the costs of operation and administration of that building should be shared by the special education monies.

"There also are shared costs in warehousing, business office and central administration. The district also expends money for special education-related activities and services for which the state does not provide any special support through the Foundation Program. "As an example, the district in 1971-72 spent $45,827 for transportation for students and $48,370 for the Educational Adjustment PROMOTED Steve Kirk, field representative for the Great Falls Social Security Office, has been promoted to branch manager of a new Social Security branch office in Pullman, effective April 2.

It was well known and understood by all that my testimony would be available to either side." Neither Judge McNichols nor prosecution attorneys would discuss the question of dismissal or the order to sever. House: "I don't think the mob will move in on a quarter baseball pool." The House heard from Haines that 25 states have laws allowing bingo and 14 others tolerate bingo although it is not allowed by law. "None of these states allow bingo in saloons," he said. Montana is one of 11 states where bingo is unlawful and the prohibition is enforced. Freight derails ST.

REGIS (AP) A Milwaukee Road freight train derailed early Sunday near Handerson, 20 miles west of St. Regis. Four engines and the first 14 cars of the train went off the tracks, throwing a cargo of lumber onto the banks of the St. Regis River. A railroad official in Missoula, Don Klepper, said no one was injured in the don, supported Martell's statement: "He is not being relieved of trial because of a deal with the prosecution to turn state's evidence," Had-don said.

"He is being spared from the case in which he should never have been involved." Martell, in a prepared statement, said: "The fact is simply that there was no evidence against me, and the district attorney wanted a stipulation that I would not refuse to testify once I was out of the case. Since I had During the argument, the House rejected by a 2-1 tally the proposal of Rep. Tom Haines, R-Missoula, to delete the authorization for taverns to hold bingo and raffles. They also refused, by a 51-39 vote, to remove the 25-cent ceiling on the amount that could be charged for each bingo card. This proposal came from Rep.

Michael T. Greely, D-Great Falls. "I think you think you've gotten hold of a bill you can play around with," Majority Whip John C. Hall, D-Great Falls, said as he opposed all changes in the bill. "Either pass the bill as it is, or kill it," he told the representatives.

Agreeing with Hall was Rep. Hal Harper, R-Helena, author of a bill to confine gambling to the privacy of the home. After Hall opposed his amendment to make the bill apply to pools on athletic contests, Lynch told the submit program descriptions accompanied by a line-item budget, with their annual program applications, by Feb. 5, 1973, to state superintendent's office. This was done in an effort to improve accountability as well as special education programs.

"If the Senate had been provided with the information which school districts already have submitted to the state office for the 1973-74 school year, it would have had more appropriate information. "The school district has on file, as does the state superintendent, a detailed financial report of the 1971-72 expenditures for special education which is quite contradictory to the information in the news article last Saturday," Findley concluded.

He complimented the club on jointly sponosring a new club at Malmstrom Air Force Base. The speaker also reminded members to participate in the Walk for Mankind to be sponsored here April 28 by Key clubs, Circle and Kiwanis clubs. By J.

D.HOLMES Associated Press Writer HELENA (AP) State representatives spent better than an hour Monday amending and arguing a bill that would permit bingo and raffles in churches, clubs and bars before killing the controversial gambling plan and then reviving it. The back-to-back actions-death on 51-43 vote and resurrection on a 54-41 vote mean the entire procedure can be repeated Tuesday. The actions stripped from the bill the amendments made to it during debate. One amendment, proposed by Rep. J.

D. Lynch, D-Butte, and adopted 59-36, would have legalized baseball and football pools. Another, proposed by Rep. John F. Tierney, R-Great Falls, and adopted 48-39, would have limited the bill's life to a single year.
