I'M Legislature Enters Final Pay Week Weighted With State Issues Wrangle Seen Over Budget 'Home Is the Sailor Fleet Returns to Coast Phone Concern All in Family By JOHN W. DUNLAP 1'reHN CrrcNiicnitlcn) A A May -CLP)-- California's legislature started today into crucial week which may determine whether adjournment will come before or after the first of Tho determining factor is whether the biennial budget can be disposed of quickly, or whether there will be a continuation of the four-week economy wrangle which put the assembly far behind on its routine business. Pay Stops There was every inducement for speed, however, since the legislators' pay checks stop al the end of this week.

The state constitution allows them payable al the rate of $12 a day for 100 days. The hundredth day is May 20. The report of a special senate budget committee was expected momentarily and probably will be followed by speedy adoption of the program by the senate. The committee's recommendations reportedly call for reductions in appropriations exceeding considerably the $8,500,000 lopped off Governor Olson's $557,000,000 budget in the as- pembly, but with the cuts distributed more generally over all Must Reach Compromise The matter then will KO to conference between the two houses. If a satisfactory compromise can be reached to reconcile the senate and assembly versions--particularly if a program can lie drafted which will draw support of sufficient Democrats not included in the assembly coal.ition for tho necessary two- thirds vote--the budget may go to the governor in a comparatively short, t'me.

i the state departments a institutions provided thtrir necessary operating expenses, there is nothing else pending that cannot be disposed of in short order if the legislature once gets the adjournment fever. However, cons id era hie debate is jiidR-uU'd for various phases of Governor Olson's $6.1,000,000 revenue program. The last of the adminis- trat ion's tax measures are scheduled for hearing -this week, and revenue will be the next order of business in the assembly following completion of the budget. Severance Tux A bill proposing severance on minerals and oil was scheduled; for hearing Thursday by the us-1 scmbly revenue ami ixunn committee, and a measure intended to increase revenue from alcoholic beverages by $10,000,000 was set for Friday. a i i a i move to force the Garrison revenue bond bill out of the senate municipal corpora- dona committee was anticipated in the, next day or two following strongly worded radio speech by Governor Olson urging public ownership of utilities.

The bond bill, introduced by Senator J. C. Garrison Modesto) has been refused action by the committee. It would allow cities and other political subdivisions to issue bonds for construction or acquisition of utilities upon majority vote of the people and provides for the bonds to be payable only froir. revenues of the utility.

Olson criticised the Pacific Gas and Electric company, which he snid "has practical monopoly on the generation and distribution of electric power" in Northern California, for opposing a public power proposition in the San Francisco city election Friday nnd the administration's public ownership program, which included provisions for widespread public distribution.of power from Shasta dam, under construction on the Sacramento river north of Redding. Governor Olson declared the G. and monopoly must be broken or short-circuited," and urged San Francisco citizens to vote "yes 1 on the power issue, Proposition No. 2 on the city ballot. A strong plea for additional state legislation to expand the Central valley project, of which Shasta dam is the first major unit, was made to the legislature in connection with a junket to the dam site over the week end.

Thirty-two assemblymen and seven senators accepted the Redding Chamber of Commerce invitation to make the trip. The senate representation was cut down to continuance of the nine-man budget committee in session Saturday and Sunday and a hearing in San Francisco by the senate, special committee investigating "pressure groups."

LOUIS (IP)--Ben M. Loew- ensfein, former real a denier, is conducting a nationwide campaign to procure passage of uniform laws enabling phut-ins to exercise thfiir right of franchise. Confined To Wheelchair Loewensti'in has been confined to a wheelchair in his room at the Missouri Baptist hospital since in- i his hip five years ago. Despite this difficulty, he has been bombarding members of congress, governors and political leaders i letters urging some form of arrangement that would allow the persons in the nation who are confined to their beds to vote. pay taxes nnd are subject to the ruiLion's laws, yet they arc denied the right to participate in their government," I-oewenstein said.

"Such an imposition amounts to taxation without representation." Called Wide Awake He said the plight of invalids was impressed upon him during his convalescence from his injury. "Most of these people are certainly well informed on candidates and issues since they have an abundance of time for study of political issues," Loeweiif-tein pointed out. "They deserve a champion who would effectively place their problem before the public." At present only nine states provide for the registration and voting by phut-ins, and only 15 of the others have laws permitting physic-ally disabled persons to vote if have been previously registered. The. remaining 24 have no provisions whatever for them.

Loewcnsicin said his program provides for tho voting of shut-ins by mail or by taking special ballot boxes to them. Under the plan of voting by mail, ballots would be sent by registered mail and to prevent fraud election officials would compare the signatures on the ballots with the signatures on the receipts for the letters. According to Loewenstein's second plan, election clerks and judges would be sent to the shut-ins during idle periods of the election day with a special ballot box. Whrn the officials returned to the' polling place, the ballots would be transferred to the regular box. THE GARDEN SEWING STUDIO Hanlrt I.
