bill would curb irregularity and protect the relief recipient
ion for wasteful spending.
_A revealing summary .of the situation is that William
A. Pixley, who, as secretary of the Property Owners’ Association of California, is chief spokesman of the ‘“‘peoples’
lobby”’ for tax retrenchment. ‘“Tax-harassed as they are,” says
Mr. Pixley, “the farm and city home owners have willingly
tightened their belts and ‘done without’ for the real relief of
the needy. But the time has come for putting a ceiling on relief tax levies, as on all tax levies, for the reason that the ability of the taxpayer to pay has also reached the ceiling. Furthermore, when a taxpayer goes bankrupt, one more family
may be added to the relief rolls, with one more trickle of re~ lief source‘dried up.” eo
There is hard-headed soundness in the theory voiced by
Mr. Pixley and manifested by the Assembly's action. It will
be well if the Senate concurs in ‘that intelligent plan for placing a ceiling on soaring relief costs—and perhaps goes the

BUDGET BATTLE
STILL ENGACES
By CLEM WHITAKER
Full of fight and oratory—and
the 1939 State Legislature’ seems
triple threat of torrid temperatures,
day and night sessions and paylesspaydays.
(Making haste slowly, due to~prolonged debate over such major issues as relief and the gigantic state
budget, the lawmakers are far behind in consideration of the recordbreaking calendar of more than
4,000 bills which must be disposed
of before adjournment.
Thus far, only a handful of ills
tle of the budget, which has taken
more time than all other issues combined, is still far from ended. But
the economy ‘bloc, making a. dast; ditch stand against continued expansion in government, feels that the
time thas been well‘spent, for it is
within ‘striking distance of a balanced budget, balanced without levying a dollar in new taxes!
Faced ‘with some of the most critical legislative problems in ‘recent
years, the lawmakers, according to
present indications, will still be in
ments have ceased, with the most
optimistic forecasts setting June 15
as the probable date of adjournment. Many seasoned observers, in
‘fact, expect the boys will still be at
their desks on July 1—hungry, tired,
but still determined. It’s that kind of
a session. ‘
Although long in duration, the
1939 legislative meeting promises to
go down in the record book as one
of the most constructive sessions in
the state’s ‘history. © * :
Negative accomplishments, judged
from the present temper of the leg‘tax proposals totaling more than
$60,000,000, including the proposed
gas tax boost; income tax increase;
severance tax on oil, lumber and.
gold; cigarette taxes, additional bank
and corporation taxes. Also defeat
of production for use;. new pension
proposals; compulsory health insurance; the newly revived . Garrison
Revenue Bond Act; Dills‘to turn the
Central Valley Project into a power
program; measures to “abolish the
present farm bloc plan of legislative
representation, et cetera,
Positive accomplishments, as nearly as can be gauged at this writing,
will include: A cut of many millions
in the budgeted operating costs of
state government; simplification of
election procédpre, ‘due to enactment
election of most state officers and
elimination of cross-filing; adoption
of Senate Bill 1115, giving farmers
and other shippers the benefit of the
influence in relief administration;
