(AP Wirephoto) Slate Officials Propose To Lure European, Japanese Factories LITTLE ROCK.

(AP) -Legislative Council was asked Wednesday to recommend a $150,000 annual appropriation for a program to lure' European and Japanese factories to Arkansas. The request came from the state Industrial Development Department. The requested money would be used to send members of the department staff overseas for conferences with industrialists and to work with overseas industrial prospects in other ways. That was part of a substantial budget increase proposed by the agency, which is operating this year on a budget of $1,029,492 and is seeking $1.563,171 in general revenues in fiscal 1976 and $1,631,578 in 1977. Part of the proposed increase would go to an expanded advertising budget in publications reaching other, parts of the country.

The department also wants about $200,000 a year to offset the loss of federal funds for the state's four-year-old industry training program. Governor-elect David H. Drivers Records Available To Anyone LITTLE ROCK (AP) Atty. Gen. Jim Guy Tucker said Wednesday that any Arkansas citizen may obtain the driving record of any licensed motorist in the state if he will pay $2 for each name and explain why he it.

Tucker gave the opinion to state Rep. Joseph K. Mahony II of El Dorado. Mahony said one of his constituents wanted to. buy a duplicate of the magnetic tape of drivers' records on a monthly or weekly basis from the Reve nue Division of the state Finance and Administration Department and resell them to in surance companies.

Insurance companies are among the purchasers of the computerized records. They pay 52 for each record. llahony's constituent said he could serve the companies bet ter. He askeji to buy a dupli cate of the entire file, not for $2 for each driver, which would total about $4 million, but for the computer time involved in preparing it. That woujc amount to about $3,000 or $4 000, according to Walter Skel ton, Revenue Division director.

Mahony's constituent was turned down. "We are not going to got into the commercial business selling information," Skelton said Wednesday. "We don' have the computer space foi one thing, and it we set on price for one person, how in good conscience could we chai'ge someone else differ ently?" Skelton said. Pryor postponed any recommendation on the expansions and cut about $40,000 a from the amount the agency said it needed to maintain a continuing level of services. Joe Dildy, the department director, told the council that whether or not the legislature appropriated the money specifically for the overseas "reverse program, the agency would work with foreign industrialists.

"It will require reaching into funds designated lot our domestic program and to adequately support a program of reverse investment in this way could jeopardize our domestic program," Dildy said. "But without proper funding, we will have to i this way or tell interested overseas investors to go to other states."
