Senate Efficiency Committee to Conduct State Govt. Reorganization Study Soon By EARL G. WATERS Western News Service Sacramento (WNS) — Persons interested in better state government at less cost now have an opportunity to demand from the legislature appropriate action in that direction. For the senate governmental efficiency committee will soon conduct a hearing on the several plans for a state government reorganization study which have been proposed. That the need for such reorganization exists is made more striking by the results of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee study of the proposed 1949-50 budget. This committee devoted three months study to the budget and failed to agree as to a recommended expenditure. After diligent examination of all proposed spending the committee succeeded in trimming less than one per cent from the total billion dollar plus budget. Californians will find this startling when it is realized that annual federal government expenditures did not reach the billion dollar figure until 1917. In other words, not until thirty years ago, when the population of the United States had reached 100 million and we were involved in the first world war, did it cost more to run the entire United States than is now proposed to spend to run California government for one year. Those who have watched the operation of state government over a period of years are well aware of this need for a complete reorganization and streamlining of state Watson Votes Yes on Tenney Commie Bill Sacramento (WNS) — Senator Watson, representing Orange county, today voted for legislation barring the teaching of Communist, Nazi or Fascist propaganda in California public schools. The bill (SB 130) sponsored by Senator Jack Tenney, Los Angeles, passed 27 to 4. According to Tenney it will not forbid explanation of the different totalitarian systems by the teacher but will forbid any advocacy of an alien doctrine over the American system. The Los Angeles senator said the need for the bill is overwhelming. He claimed the teachers union in Los Angeles is communist dominated and the same situation exists in other schools throughout the state. Chief opponent of the measure was Senator George Miller, Contra Costa county. It is "a complete blow at academic freedom," Miller said, "it will place a cloud over every teacher and instructor in California colleges and schools." Miller contended that present laws are sufficient to cover the situation and the Tenney measure "is not going to promote and it is not going to stop the teaching of communism." Under provisions of the Tenney bill a teacher will be liable to loss of teaching position if proven Optional Dates On Philharmonic Appearance Give Option for three dates covered by Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra concerts in Orange counties has been given by Southern California Symphony Association for the proposed series of symphony concerts. The dates were listed by symphony association pending success of the current ticket sale effort by the Orange County Choral Directors Guild which sponsor the concerts. Spokesman for the symphony association said the following days are being held for the Guild grand Saturday, October 29 in San Ana; Saturday, December 31 Anaheim and Sunday, February 19 in Fullerton. The Fullerton concert, if given on the date offered, will be a Standard broadcast heard on the Pacific network of the National Broadcasting Company. All of the concerts will be conducted by Alfred Wallenstein, sie director of the orchestra, is one of the foremost conductors in the nation and has headed orchestra for the past six seasons. Joseph Schuster, renowned cellist will be soloist for the Fullerton concert. The Philharmonic will begin 31st consecutive season next It was founded in 1919 and been heard in the principal cities of southern California for more than a quarter century. It has national acclaim and awards, the excellence of its programs for its public service. For several weeks the committees representing the Choral Directors Guild have been directed attention to the Orange county In other words, not until thirty years ago, when the population of the United States had reached 100 million and we were involved in the first world war, did it cost more to run the entire United States than is now proposed to spend to run California government for one year. Those who have watched the operation of state government over a period of years are well aware of this need for a complete reorganization and streamlining of state government. In the hectic operation of the state during the past twenty years one new state agency after another has been created. One created the agencies expanded rapidly. An example of how state government has grown to gargantuan size is that of the California Youth Authority which was created in 1941 with an appropriation of $40,-000 for two years. This agency now spends that much in a single year for travel expenses alone. Of the plans advanced for studying reorganization Senator Randolph Collier of Yreka has proposed what appears to be the one which would be most successful. Senator Collier demonstrated his ability to conduct studies of state problems when he was selected in 1945 to investigate the highway needs. Under his direction an interim committee made a highly scientific study of the deficiencies of California highways which resulted in the enactment of the Collier-Burns Highway Act of 1947. How good a job was done is reflected in the modern highways throughout the state now being rapidly developed. This senator, who sacrificed months of his time to the highway study, now has offered his service to the end that state government can be streamlined in an effort to reduce expenditures. His plan calls for the creation of a 19 man commission, 10 members of which would be legislators, seven others to be appointed by the governor, and the state director of finance and state controller making up the final two members. The commission would embody all the powers of a regular commission plus the powers of the governor, and the powers of the legislature. Other plans advanced by Senator Gerald J. O'Gara of San Francisco, Senator Hugh P. Donnelly of Turloek, Assemblyman Marvin Sherwin of Piedmont and James Silliman of Salinas, have good governor, and the state director of finance and state controller making up the final two members. The commission would embody all the powers of a regular commission plus the powers of the governor, and the powers of the legislature. Other plans advanced by Senator Gerald J. O'Gara of San Francisco, Senator Hugh P. Donnelly of Turloek, Assemblyman Marvin Sherwin of Piedmont and James Silliman of Salinas, have good points but none contain all of the features of the Collier plan. Further, not one of the authors are in the fortunate position of Senator Collier who is virtually retired from business and financially able to follow through. Senator Donnelly seeks to place all responsibility in the governor's lap while Assemblyman Silliman would have the legislature retain the entire responsibility. Sherwin's plan is somewhat akin to Collier's but not as thorough. Senator O'Gara originally proposed a plan which would place all power in the hands of the governor but has now proposed some amendments. His plan, however, still falls short of the Collier proposal. Local Contractors Apply for License Sacramento (WNS) — Application for a contractor's license in classified specialists had been filed here today with the Contractors State License Board by Heath and Owston, 'Ernest H. Owston and Floyd A. Heath, of 718 North Los Angeles, Anaheim. The board delays action ten days after which it issues the license provided no written protest has been received. Food is eaten with the fingers instead of chopsticks by the Chinese in a period of mourning. Emotional Dates in Philharmonic Appearance Given A celebration for three dates covering Angeles Philharmonic orchestra concerts in Orange county has been given by Southern California Symphony Association the proposed series of symphony concerts. The dates were listed by the symphony association pendingcess of the current ticket sell-off by the Orange County Real Directors Guild which will favor the concerts.

The Fullerton concert, if given on the date of this week, will be a Standard broadband heard on the Pacific coast work of the National Broadcasting Company.
