George Murphy, reacting to the Supreme Courts decision outlawing residency requirements for welfare payments, today introduced legislation under which the Federal Government would pay the cost of those added to the rolls.

Murphy said, If the government wants to impose its will on the states in this fash- ion, it is incumbent on the Federal Government to bear the cost of additional payments which will have to be made." He added, In outlawing minimum residency requirements for potential welfare recipients, the Supreme Court has once again blatantly exer cised its self-induced disposition to meddle and muddle, and in so doing has prepared a new financial load for Californias already overburdened taxpayers. The decision also provoked these other reactions: A poverty program law- yer suggested poor persons might be able to collect dam- ages for. the years they were -denied benefits. Welfare Secretary Robert H. Finch, said some Nixon administration proposals -now.

Artist's concept of 300-seat revolving of Oakland iestaurairait oim Oakland port commissioners have postponed any appear- ance before state legislative committees 'until the port, boardcan prepare a precise policy statement on proposed plans for San Francisco Bay development and any succes-' sor agency to the Bay Conser-' vation and Development Commission. The port board had ordered a policy statement brought to its regular meeting yesterday, but rejected it for further study. Board member William Walters felt the port should go in with a constructive attitude, adding that the policy presented yesterday by Assistant Executive Director Walter -A. Abernathy is incomplete.

Abernathys policy statement was to have been turned over today to the State Senate. Governmental Efficiency Committee, which is meeting on various bills concerning Bay. regional government and, extension or abolition of the BCDC. A a said of the BCDCs current Bay plan: At best the plan presents only 1 surface analysis of complex subjects like maritime commerce and aviation. He said, Further, a consistent bias against the government regulated competition existing today among the Bay Area and River Ports, as well as proprietary functions, in favor af an intensely planned and regulated economy runs throughout the Agency (BCDC) reports." Both Walters and board member Emmett Kilpatrick Were against any point-by-point a of the ports policy while various bills are still in the committee.

Edward G. Brown, acting as board president in the absence of Robert E. Mortensen, felt the board has given this a lot of consideration over two or three years. Peter M. Tripp agreed.

There is nothing in here that not been stated by this board at some time, he said, adding that Abernathy has boiled it down to terms that can be presented. In the absence of agreement and with the advice of the ports legislative counsel John Wendt that nothing irritates a committee more than a general statement the board agreed to postpone any in Sacramento until the policy can be reworked. We met three times, and twice at night, on an Equal Employment Opportunity Plan, Walters said. A Bay plan must require as much time, or more. for the restaurant, as part of million the EDA provid- ed for a portion of the $33 million marine terminal project.

The ports share is in the EDA loan funds of roughly 40 per cent of the $600,000. Specialty Restaurants Los Angeles, headed by Dave Tallichet, will put up $184,000 for construction, and about $350,000 for furnishings, equipment, and the restaurants rotating platform base and its associated machinery. This same firm built The Castaway Restaurant atop the port of- fice building in Jack London Square here. The restaurant is to seat 300 persons, and will revolve in a full circle each hour. Final plans will be complete in four months.

Port commissioners have accepted bids for placing the final 35 acres of fill behind the dikes at-the-terminal, with filling to begin in five or six weeks. Apparent low bidder yesterday on the fill project was the Umpqua River Navigation at $1,994,000. Plans for a revolving res- taurant 75 feet high to be built in the Bay by a Los Angeles restaurant firm" were approved yesterday by the board of commissioners of the Port of Oakland. Cost of the structure is estimated at $784,000. It is to be" built on the westernmost tip of the ports new 140-acre Seventh Street Marine Terminal.

By the way, hows your golf game. You didnt mention it? Fiset. OEDCI May Reject U.S.

Fund Grant The executive committee of Oaklands Economic Develop- ment Council, last night voted to recommend rejection of a $1 million federal grant at the council meeting The motion to reject the grant was made after Percy Moore, OEDCI 'executive director, told committee members that special conditions attached to the money by the regional Office of Economic Opportunity would leave QED-CI with little or no time and authority to run its community action programs. The grant, in the form of a contract, is expected to be rejected by the council, executive committee members said. Following the unanimous vote to reject the contract, Moore indicated that the regional office would probably be willing to negotiate a new contract. Regional OEO cannot afford not to have an operational community action program in Oakland, Moore said. HAYWARD Trustees of -1Q6Q IQ the Hayward Unified U5.t April ll, ypy I District- last- night accepted the superintendents recommendation not to seek dismissal of teachers who taught unauthorized minimum day schedules last weeek.

But they also accepted Supt. Raymond G. Arvesons recommendation that those teachers be paid only for the time they taught their classes subject to advice as to the legality of that procedure by the county counsel. Members of the Secondary Classroom teachers are complying with a court ofder restraining them from reducing the teaching day in the districts senior and junior high schools. Last Wednesday three high schools and one junior high school were forced into miniin um -day schedules when SCAT members cut their teaching periods from 55 to 35 minutes.

The school district then obtained a temporary restraining order.

The Role of Black Business' 39 TO 39 Assembly Balance May Shift The balance oPpower in Californias legislature could shift again today as Stanislaus and San Joaquin County voters seek a successor to former Assemblyman John G. Vene man. With the death of Salinas Assemblyman Alan G.

Pattee Saturday night in an auto accident, the Assembly now is knotted at 39 Republicans and 39 Democrats. Republicans are seeking to retain control by electing Modesto City Councilman Ray Simon, 37, Venemans chosen candidate, but five other Republicans threaten to split the vote. Strongest of these are former Modesto Mayor Peter W. Johansen and Ceres grape grower Clare L. Berryhill.

When Veneman resigned to become undersecretary of Health, Education and Welfare in the Nixon cabinet, Democrats immediately united behind Ernest La Coste, a lawyer and former chief deputy district attorney in Stanislaus County. Democrats hold a solid registration edge 59.3 per cent to 37.6 per cent in a district that includes all of Stanislaus County and about 20 per cent of San Joaquin County. If none of the candidates is able to draw a majority of the votes in todays election, a runoff will be held next month between the highest vote-getters in each party. Should the Democrats gain the 40-39 edge in the Assembly with a victory today, they will aim next at Monterey County for Pattees seat. A win in both elections would give Democrats a 41-39 edge in the Assembly, which could displace Republican Speaker Robert T.

Monagan and 'return Democratic floor leader Jesse Unruh to power. Driver Charged In Pattee Death SAN JOSE (AP) Manuel Lucas, 26, of Santa Clara, was charged yesterday with manslaughter and felony drunk driving as an aftermath of the accident which claimed, the life of Assemblyman Alan G. Pattee, R-Salinas, last Saturday. Authorities said Lucas, who is still hospitalized with internal and leg injuries, will have a court date set after he has recovered. Highway patrolmen said Lucas was driving a northbound truck which crossed-into Pat-tees southbound lane near a Highway 101 off ramp in San Jose Pattees wife, Ingeborg, 43, suffered pelvic and arm fractures and was reported as progressing satisfactorily today.

der should not be made permanent. Arveson told the board he strongly disagreed with the use of both sanctions and minimum-day schedules as methods of seeking salary raises. But he said he firmly supports the need to improve our salary structure and I pledge my best efforts in working toward achieving a median salary position in the Bay Area. The Hayward Unified Teachers Association on April 17 imposed sanctions against the district, encouraging members to seek employment in other districts and advising them not to take part in non-paid school activities and extra-curricular events.

Norman O. Houston, president and chairman of the board of the Golden State Mutual Life Insurance Co.

and guest speaker at the banquet, said businessmen can no longer donate our services to high school career days because the participants are usually high-achieving sters who are- going to- succeed anyway. The role of black business is to tap the potential of youngsters from disadvantaged areas, he said. He urged businessmen to plan an educational role and communicate with disillusioned and often misguided youths in a more creative way to prepare them for greater participation in the a i n--stream of society. -Charles F.
