BILL FISET By GAYLE MONTGOMERY Tribune Political Editor Illinois Sen. Charles II. Percy last night fired the opening salvo in a Republican effort to win re-election for California Sen.

George Murphy, terming it absolutely crucial." Percy, in San Francisco for the 10th anniversary of the Bay Area Republican Alii-ance'went oui of his way to praise Murphy, demonstrating openly for the first time the extent of the Republican partys concern about the California Senate seat Percy outlined a shopping list of problems faring the U.S., but preceded it oy saying I want to praise the Nixon administration and tell how George Murphy fits into it. Percy, who has opposed Murphy on such questions of the Vietnam War and deployment of an anti-ballistic missile system, lauded Murphy for his contribution on the domestic front. He praised the California senator for supporting bilingual teaching in schools and for leading early fights for more money to end envi- SEN.

He's not going to police the whole world and hot going to try to Americanize every culture. I support that policy of President Nixon. He was critical of maintaining large forces in Europe, saying: We are just plain suckers for all these people, pointing at the $14 billion nual cost of supporting more than 500,000 Americans there. We have to say, If you want our people, you pay for them, Percy told the crowd. He called far reduction of armed forces from 3.5' million 2.5 million men.

Percy derided international communism as a monolithic whole, saying: Im not really worried about that. I think they have more animosity inside eommunism than there is between Russia and nations in the Free World. The senator added: The real threat (to the United States) is not from without its from Percy, who was stationed for two years at Alameda Naval Air Station in World War II, was the first speaker for the Bay Area Republican Alliance when it formed a decade ago, and he returned last night to kick off the second 10 years. He was introduced by State Controller Houston I. Flournoy.

John V. Tunney, D-Riverside, the Democratic nominee: The first vote he would cast would be for' a Democratic organization i the Senate that would put' the South right back in power. Percy then switched to an attack on the nations domestic problems, exhorting the crowd of 300 to get to the job of nation building at home. He ticked off inflation, alienation of youth, problems of city dwellers, inadequate housing, unemployment, hunger, lack of health facilities for the poor, educational financing andcrime is the nations major domestic, problems, saying the past decade has been the toughest 10 years this side of the Civil War.

He decried in the United States, saying: If we can deliver meals to our men in Vietnam 12,000 miles away, we ought to be able to feed our children. He then credited Murphy with fighting for every increase in food allotments. Percy was applauded as he said President Nixon is going to get us out of Viet (Daklanb SACRAMENTO (AP)-Gov. Ronald Reagan said demands of Senate Democrats for more school and welfare money sounds a little like last year holding the budget for ransom again." He said he expected his personal task force to complete its study of school needs before the June 30 deadline for adoption of the state budget and said Democrats would be derelict in their constitutional duties if they dont cooperate in passing a budget. If they submit back to me a budget over and above what we can finance, it is up to me to blue pencil items to balance it," Reagan said.

If they think it hurts me to blue pencil expensive items out of the budget well, I know the taxpayers would be happy to chip in and buy me more blue- pencils, Reagan said. Meanwhile, the senator who is guiding the $6.47 billion budget through the upper house said he will accept Democratic amendments to the budget just to get it before a joint conference committee for resolution. Sen. Donald R-Watsonville, said the Democratic moves to add welfare and education money are a meaningless grandstand play. The governor flatly rejected a suggestion last week by Republican Assembly Speaker Robert Monagan that property tax relief in the tax reform package might be delayed to provide more money for schools.

No I would not accept that, he said. Then this would simply be a tax increase without any comparable relief to taxpayers. Im very fearful anytime you start toying around' with a one-time windfallto support on-going programs, he said.

By NORM HANNON Tribune Staff Writer When the Public Land Law Review Commissions final recommendations are presented to the President and Congress this month there will be a flurry of initial reactions from user interests on one side and the environmentalists on the other.

The commission began its work before the environmental era and some of its proposals may well not be in accord with some of the recent proposals in Congress, such as The National Land Use Policy bill, introduced by Sen. Henry Jackson or the bill introduced by Minority-Leader Hugh Scott which embodies the proposals( President Nixon made in his environmental message to Congress in February. The several agencies which Administer the vast federal lands will have to remain officially neutral, but their activities will be profoundly affected by the report, which was five years in the making and was the broadest of its kind in the nations history, Although all the commissions findings will not be palatable to everyone they will at' least draw the' battle lines -along which to fight out legislation.

One ness proposals in the House Interior Committee. Some of the mining proposals Chave been ehtreme. One geologist, for instance, argued that minerals are the prime assets of the public lands and suggested opening up Yellowstone National Park for the extraction of its copper deposits. But although they are concerned over jthe threat to their discovery rights and other things, Aspinall tried to reassure those attending the Western Mining Conference in Denver in February: We are, as a nation, he said, currently on an environmental binge.

Some-dont realize that a mining man, who after all is on weekends a recreationist himeslf, is also anxious- to have a nice environment The greatest jdanger that we have at the moment is that whether it be because some- one needs the issue to try to get elected to-public office, or for whatever other reason, we may find attempts to establish unrealistic regulatons that are not economically sound Conservationists have done relatively little to press their points at the hearings, preferring to wait for the legislative battles. But they can be expected to jump on some of the commission re-commendatons with fury if the proposals say what -they think they are going to say. which between them administer most of the 7.7 million-acre federal domain, are looking for an affirmation and clarification of the principle of multiple use. They could do a much better job, they assert, if they had clearer guidelines to work by. Multiple use, a principle which they say -is misunderstood, means, generally, that a given area should be put to jts best and highest uses.

In some cases this can mean just mining, and in others just But for most of the huge hunks federal land it means a combination of many uses commercial and recreational. They fear a system of zoning which would -mean much smaller areas for all users and the most bitter battles between commercial interests and conservationists. (On this score, the' agencies may be disappointed. In one of the few statements by a commission member on its work, Gow Philip Hoff of Vermont indicated to the National Wildlife Federation conferertce in Chicago several months ago that multiple use had not been given much consideration.)

In the case of Lassen County, which is mostly BLM land' adminis4 tered for grazing, the fees are small by comparison. The Commission recommendations, which are still unknown, have already had one important affect on legislation in the case of the industry-supported Timber Bill. Rep. Wayne A i a chairman of the commission and the House Interior Committee, came up on the side of the conservationists.

He suggested in the floor debate on the bill, which was strongly opposed by the Sierra Qlub, that its provisions were not accord with the commissions recommendations on tintber. The bill didnt pass.
