Richard G. Reichel, Massillon, said Tuesday. Reichel, chief sponsor of tta measure, said the flat-rate taxr, although imposed on everyone at the same rate, would induce taxpayers to become interested in government spending.

"I suggest they will feel a part of government and they will ask government "to spend that money responsibly because they have contributed to it," he told the House Ways and Means Committee. The proposal, which was drawn up as an alternative to the GOP leadership tax package', calls for a 0.8 per cent flat county personal income tax and a 3 per cent corporate net income tax. Committee chairman Rep. E. WL Lampson, R-Jefferson said the dissident bill would be taken "under advisement" by a subcommittee.

He did not say hearings were finished for the measure, which was just introduced last week, but noted all inter ested persons have testified. The committee chairman, who gained time for consideration with the introduction of an in terim budget in the Senate, said a tax package would be develop ed "wren we can get all the votes." Reichel, saying he wanced to "set the record straight," charg ed tne administration with throwing up a "smoke screen" against the proposal by advancing inaccurate remarks about it. He said, for instance, the bill was not unconstitutional a Fi nance Director Haroll Hoevy and Tax Commissioner Robert Kosydar said they oelieved it would be. The administration official contended the proposal violated the Ohio Surpreme Court's decision (in Friedlander v. Gorman) that a county colleried tax ccrid not be redistributed to other counties.

Reichel said his proposal would not vio late that ruling. Reichel also toft offense to contentions there was more chance of error or mishandling by coiuty officials than state officials in collecting a iax. "I am not willing to accept the proposition that county-elected auditors and supers will have less integrity that the political hacks appointed by the state Department of Taxation," he said. He also charged the Gilligan administration wishes to exert its control over all the state's revenues.

r. By KATHLEEN NEUMEYER PASADENA, Calif. (UPI)-In four large, tree-shaded yards behind a big old house here, 185 small, grimy children clamber over an old cargo net, slide down specially designed double slides, and hammer and saw with adult-size tools. They think they're having a good time. They but they are also developing skills designed to increase their understanding of themselves ami their world, and helping at the same time to train some 300 future teachers, psychologists and social workers.

Pacific Oaks College and Children's School was founded 26 years ago by seven Quaker 1 families who wanted to form a free school to promote a more peaceful world through education. They needed teachers, so they decided to train their own, establishing a teacher's college which is now an accredited two-year upper division institution. Some Enrolled at Birth Some of the youngsters, aged from IVz to 6, are enrolled by their parents at birth, and there are three or four applicants for each opening. Minority group children receive special consideration, because the school wants a gcod ethnic mix, but youngsters are also favored whose parents offer special talents wrhich they could share. The children spend either two or five half days a week in the large fenced-in play yards, segregated by age group.

The play equipment, mostly constructed by 1 mteer parents, is specially designed to encourage certain skills.
