other day during the summer vacation period, as demanded by the ham
‘and eggers, is said to be absolute—
and leaders of the Thirty-Thursday
‘movement are sizzling mad about it.
The strategy of the pension boostwas to stage the election at the
‘height of the vacation season, when
;}many wary voters would be basking
at the seashore or tramping the hills,
‘far removed from their voting precincts.
But Governor Olson, who has rendered a “Dutch verdict’ throughout '
jon the pension plan, will have none
of it. Privately, he holds the opinion
. according to his intimates, that pas. s2ge of the plan would plunge state
government into financial chaos—
and that he would take the blame
for it. He agreed to:call a special
election, his associates report,
,cause he feared the pension army
would launch a recall against him if
he refused. But he wants the rank
and file, conservative voters home on
election day to give the proposal a
drubbing. Hence the November date,
for the election! .
Perhaps the hottest question still .
at issue in the legislature is whether Governor Olson will be prohibited, by statute,. from “transferring
; money out of the state emergency
fund to replenish his governor’s office fund when and if the need arises.
The senate budget committee placed
such ,a restriction on the fund, but
the governor is fighting to have it
removed.
The governor is. not required to
make an accounting of funds expended by his. office—and the legislators
have a hunch that if he is given free
access to the emergency fund some of
the money will be used to finance the
proposed Olson “purge’’ of. lawmakers who have opposed his program.
On the governor’s black list—and
due to be purged if the governor cay,
arrange it—are most of the leaders
of the economy bloc in both houses.
And the economy minded solons have
no intention of leaving the governor
any lookphole to use state funds in
his fight against them. That, they
insist, would be adding insult to injury.
