Peterson, college president and district superintendent, stressed that the budget for publication, required by California law, is not exact in every detail because precise figures for the district's assessed valuation of real property is not yet known, and the formula for state support of junior colleges is now before the special session of the legislature.

Kuchel of California said Saturday he has raised questions about the legal right of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to specify the firms and facilities used at subcontract levels in carrying on research and exploration programs. As an aftermath to complaints from California, the Senate Assistant Republican Leader revealed he has made a direct inquiry of Administrator James E. Webb about the statutory authority by which NASA reportedly attempts to dictate the identity of those retained at subcontract levels and also has called the situation to the attention of the Comptroller General and Senator Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, Chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Reduction of Nonessential Federal Expenditures. Social Planning In disclosing his action, Kuchel said he has been informed that some other Federal procurement authorities are undertaking to control the employment of subcontractors and commented such a practice "has all the earmarks of using funds appropriated for scientific and other specific purposes as weapons for social planning, if nothing more." The Senior California Senator told the NASA head he has received "repeated reports" that agency is using its contracting powers to dictate subcontractors retained for projects financed with public funds. Asks Direct Answer Kuchel's letter said, in part: "In my view, this practice can THE STARS of Under in PearWeishaupt, Chief Musician and Director of Destroyer Flotilla No. 3 Band from the Long Beach Naval Station, but Mrs. Weishaupt and their three children, Gay, Fred and Deana.

The branch library, Anaheim's first, has been heavily used since it opened in August of 1962. The new central facility is now nearing completion. This building has been carefully planned to be as functional as possible and has been constructed of materials that will hold maintenance costs to a minimum. The two branch sites mentioned have been bought with money from the operating budget. The cessful operation for some years. The expansion program cannot be carried further without additional funds. The Library Board felt this to be a matter that properly should be decided by the voters. Accordingly, its inclusion in the proposed bond issue was requested. Authorization is being asked for the sale of $500,000 in bonds for library purposes. Immediate sale of the entire amount is not contemplated. The program will be developed, a phase at a time, as the growth of the community indicates a corresponding ability to finance the oeration of the completed facilities. Anaheim's population growth makes library expansion a necessity. This is particularly true as it affects the many thousands of school age children. Much has been done to improve public library service in our community. But only with your favorable vote at the forthcoming municipal board election can this progress continue.
