They have been meeting with members of the business\ncommunity- to encourage them to plan and budget jobs for our youth.\nThey have spent a great deal of time in our disadvantaged areas meeting\nwith young people, encouraging them to complete their education, and\nemphasizing the importance of work.\n\"Itsis a pleasure to introduce them to you and to the people of\nCalifornia\" Clem Daniels of the San Francisco 49ers, Tony Guillory\nof the Los Angeles Rams and \"Speedy\" Duncan of the San Diego Chargers.\n\"Their special ability to communicate with both adults and young\npeople will contribute to a greater understanding of the problems we\nface, and will help us overcome them.\n\"I know they are anxious to get on with their tasks, but before they\ndepart, let me make it clear that I know of the desire of many businessmen\nto make this campaign a success. Certainly, industry does not lack the\nwillingness to do its best. At the same time, none of us can ignore\nthe fact that businessmen face a number of cumbersome legal restrictions\n-barriers, if you will--to hiring young people. It is for this reason\nthat I have urged members of the legislature to pass legislation which\nwill ease such restrictions on tempory youth employment.\n\"Again, let me strongly urge every employer to take a hard and close\nlook at jobs they can surely provide--where real work is involved to\njustify the pay--and then match them, wherever and whenever possible,\nto the employment needs of youth.\n#312\n\"Finally, I would like to call on you, the members of the\ncommunications media, to help us in this effort. You can make a\ntremendous contribution to the success of this campaign by emphasizing\nthe positive aspects of what we are all attempting to do. So often,\nof\nthe negative activities/a small number of unrepresentative young people--\nactivities intended to disrupt and destroy--get all the headlines, the\nbig play, creating a mistaken impression of the vast majority of\nour youth.\n\"You have an excellent opportunity here to emphasize a positive,\nextremely worthwhile effort, which can make an important difference\nin the lives of many of our young people.\"\n#####\nEJG\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNO\"\nRELEASE: I ediate\nSacramento, Californ.\nContact:\nPaul Beck\n445-4571\n6-10-69\n#313\nGovernor Ronald Reagan announced today the appointment of Los Angeles\ncivic and business leader Guy W.

This would mean that there would\nbe no net increase in any citizen's combined tax bill if Governor\nReagan's tax package is adopted and the tax credit is permitted by the\nfederal government.\n\"In fact, the tax-sharing plan which this administration is\nproposing has been received enthusiastically by Vice President Agnew,\"\nthe governor said.\n\"Congress now has an opportunity to put into practice the concept\nof tax-sharing. All we are asking is that Washington let California\nretain a small part of the $17 billion in taxes that our state pays to\nthe federal government each year, the governor said.\n\"We will use this rebate in a creative and constructive way---to\nprovide equal educational opportunity for all our children and to\nprovide long overdue property tax relief for our homeowners. Both of\nthose goals should be of vital interest to the federal government, too.\n\"The whole purpose of tax-sharing is to allow the states to keep\nsome of the money they would otherwise send to Washington and use it\nto solve their own problems. That's just what we are attempting to do\nin California with the tax reform package this administration has\nproposed.\nper cent\n\"By allowing our citizens to claim the 1/ Educational Opportunity\nTax as a credit, the federal government would merely be allowing us to\nuse California taxes to solve California problems,' the governor said.\n- 1 -\n#347\n\"A tax credit for the proposed Educational Opportunity Tax is the\nway to institute tax-sharing right now, not in some distant future day.\"\nHere is the text of Governor Reagan's letter to members of the\nCalifornia Congressional Delegation:\n\"In California, 65 cents of every tax dollar goes to the federal\ngovernment, leaving only 18 cents for financing all state services and\nabout 17 cents to finance the activities of local government.\n\"As a result of this imbalance, the ability of state and local\ngovernments to meet the costs of expanded essential services has been\nseverely limited. Members of both political parties have conceded this\nby endorsing the much-discussed concept of \"tax-sharing.\"\n\"Under such a concept, the federal government would remit to each\nstate (through some plan yet to be devised) a portion of the federal\ntaxes collected in that state.\n\"This proposal for tax-sharing was first suggested by Republican\ngovernors in the early 1960s. Democratic party leaders have since\nendorsed and expanded on the proposal. The present Republican\nadministration is publicly committed to the concept of 'tax-sharing.'\n\"But no one has yet come up with a positive, creative way to put\n'tax-sharing'' into effect.\n\"This administration is proposing a method to turn this meritorious\nidea into reality.\n\"A practical and workable program of 'tax-sharing\" could be\naccomplished in California by permitting California residents to claim\nper cent\nour proposed 1/ State Educational Opportunity Tax on income as a credit\nagainst the federal income tax. This tax sharing plan, which has been\nenthusiastically received by Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, is part of\nmy administration's proposed tax reform package.\n\"If a credit, rather than the usual deduction were to be allowed\npercent\nfor this 1/ portion of the state income tax, California taxpayers\nwould be able to deduct from their federal income tax bill whatever\nadditional state income taxes they would otherwise pay as a result of\ntax reform.\n\"We will use this rebate in a creative and constructive way---to\nprovide equal educational opportunity for all our children and long\noverdue property tax relief for our homeowners.\n- 2 -\n#347\n\"The tax reform program that would be partly financed by the 1 percent\nEducational Opportunity Tax would almost double the amount of state\nfinancial assistance to California's local school districts. In turn,\nthis increased state aid would permit a reduction of about 50 percent\nin the average homeowner's property taxes. Both those goals are urgent.\nUnder the present system of school finance, there is a wide and unfair\ndisparity in the amount of funds different school districts have\navailable to finance quality education. This is especially true of\nschools located in core urban areas with a limited tax base.\n\"The tax reform package that this administration is seeking would\ncorrect these inequities. Through this approach, Congress now has\nits first realistic opportunity to put into practice this concept of\ntax-sharing. All we are asking is that California retain a small part\nof the $17 billion in taxes that our state pays to the Federal government\neach year.\n\"Because I know you are as interested as I am in solving these\nproblems without increasing the tax burden of any citizen of California,\nI urge your support of our efforts to have the Internal Revenue Service\n/percent\ngrant Californians a tax credit for the proposed 1 Equal Educational\nOpportunity Tax.\"\n########\n- 3 -\nEJG\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: IMMEDIATE\nSacramento, California\nContact:\nPaul Beck\n445-4571\n6-20-69\n#348\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today named Mildred D.

Weinberger\nState Director of Finance\nSacramento, California\n916 445-4141\n\"The ability of California state government to finance much of\nits future growth depends on passage of a Constitutional Amendment\nraising the present five per cent interest limitation on State\nbonds,\" Caspar W. Weinberger, State Director of Finance, said\nyesterday.\nWeinberger, addressing the annual meeting of the California\nGroup, Investment Bankers Association of America, in Santa Barbara,\nsaid that last week, approval of the necessary Constitutional\nAmendment was blocked by a \"brazen political bargaining attempt to\nsecure passage of other bills totally unrelated to the interest\nlimitation. This is nothing more nor less than trying to barter\nthe State's future,\" Weinberger said.\nHe explained that at present the Constitution prevents the\nState from paying more than five per cent interest on its bonds,\nand with the current conditions, bonds are only saleable if interest\nin excess of six per cent can be paid. As a result, even though\nCalifornia bonds are of the highest quality, few investors are\nwilling to purchase them at the moment. This, in turn, means that\nmuch necessary State construction, including the State Water Project,\nbuildings for State institutions and higher education, and\nloans to public school districts, as well as all other activities\nfinanced by bond issue, requires that we be able to pay the current\nrates of interest required by the market.\n\"Senator Gordon Cologne, of Riverside, is the author of a\nConstitutional Amendment which has already passed the Senate,\ngiving the State the necessary authorization. It is vitally\nnecessary that this Amendment be approved as quickly as possible so\nthat we will know it will be on the ballot next year, and so that\nwe can begin preparations for the campaign to secure its adoption.\n\"Last week, passage of the measure in the Assembly Revenue and\n-1-\nTaxation Committee was blocked by some members who puolicly attempted\nto blame the Administration for the condition of the bond market\nnationally, and who privately indicated they were trying to win\nvotes for some of their own favorite bills.\n\"If these tactics should result in the loss of Senator Cologne's\nConstitutional Amendment, those who participate in stratagems of this\nkind must bear the responsibility for endangering the State's water\nprogram, and all of our other activities that, because of their\nmagnitude, have to be financed by bond issues. These include not\nonly the water program and the other construction previously\nmentioned, but also the State's ability to continue its highly\nsuccessful Veterans Farm and Home Purchases program.\n\"Such matters are far too important to entrust to the old\nlegislative log-rolling practice of 'You vote for my bill, and I'll\nvote for yours. I would hope that responsible legislators will\nrealize that to play such a game is to tamper with much of the future\nof California.\"\nWeinberger also told the Investment Bankers Association that\nuntil the Constitutional Amendment can be voted on by the people next\nyear, the Administration is making use of numerous mechanisms that\nwill meet needs, until bonds can again be sold on a large scale basis.\nAmong these temporary methods are the use of bond anticipation notes\nto continue to supply the Water Project with its heavy cash\nrequirements; a system under which sellers of land, contractors and\nothers take State bonds directly at existing rates of interest,\nrather than cash; and rescheduling many construction programs so that\nthe most urgent can be financed out of available cash.\nWeinberger has already advanced loans totaling nearly\n$30 million to local school districts to ensure that all needed\nclassrooms can be opened and in use when the new term begins this\nSeptember.\nHH\n-2-\nOFFICE OF THE GOVER.

For two years, we have worked hard to put a tough presumptive\nlimits bill on the lawbooks in California. This ceremony represents\na fitting climax to these efforts and reflects a clear recognition on\nthe part of the public of the growing need for effective measures to\ndeal with the very real threat posed by the drinking driver.\nI am very pleased that members of the Senate and Assembly have\nseen fit to give the legislation the support necessary to make it a\nreality. And I want to particularly commend Assemblyman Craig Biddle\nfor authoring this legislation and to thank Gordon Cologne for his\nassistance in the Senate.\nThe fact that alcohol was involved in more than half of the 4,850\nmotor vehicle deaths in California last year has focused renewed\nemphasis on the need for a change in the law to make our streets and\nhighways safe from the problem drinker--for he is the problem driver.\nStudies show that ordinary drivers arrested for drunken driving\nhave an infinitely lower prior arrest record than problem drinkers. By\nsetting the blood alcohol concentration level at one-tenth of one percent\n--the point at which a driver's ability is presumed to be impaired--\nthis legislation will go a long way toward combatting the problem\ndrinker who insists on endangering the safety of the rest of our citizens.\nBy modernizing the prosecution of drunk drivers, the law will also\nrelieve the judiciary of some of the present burden and costly expense\ninvolved in trials.\nI want to emphasize that this administration will continue to push\nfor action and legislation which will improve the California Highway\nSafety Program. We are working closely with nearly 100 local government\nagencies to make more effective various traffic safety improvement\nprojects, including the expansion of driver training and education\nprograms, accident prevention through better records and surveillance,\nintegrated traffic records systems, and intergovernmental traffic safety\nstudies.\nBy coordinating these programs through the State Office of\nTransportation Safety, the administration is now able to channel this\nmyriad of safety efforts into a single vital force which promises to\nbenefit all of the people of California\n###\nEJG\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nSacramento, California\nMEMO TO THE PRESS\nContact:\nPaul Beck\n445-4571\n6-25-69\nGovernor Reagan will sign two important administration bills to\ncombat pornography (SB-62 and SB-63, Lagomarsino) at a ceremony in his\noffice today at 3 p.m.\n##########\nEJG\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, California\nContact:\nPaul Beck\nSB62\n445-4571\n6-25-69\n#352\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today issued the following statement:\n\"Good afternoon.

But to take such action\nwhile at the same time refusing to approve the budget in its entirety is\npolitical partisanship carried to a ridiculous and very dangerous degree.\nIt amounts to outright obstructionism and the result will be costly and\nunnecessary extravagances.\nBut even more important than the effect it will have on California's\neconomy, and in its standing among the states, is the utter lack of\nresponsibility to the citizens of this state.\nSuch unstatesman-like conduct unprecedented in the history of\nCalifornia in fact will cause extreme hardships an citizens from all\nwalks of life. How, for example, can a local school board plan its\nbudget for the coming year when Democrats refuse to adopt a state budget\nwhich in fact should guide them? How can the administrator of a state\ndepartment plan ahead for the good of our citizens when he will have no\nway of knowing whether to start a new program or delay its inauguration\nagain to the great disadvantage of thousands of citizens?\nIt is absurd, for example, to consider one-twelfth of a new building\nfor students, or to realistically program expenditures for such things as\nneeded medical aid or welfare.\nBecause such questions are raised by the spectre of an unforgivable\nlack of responsibility from assembly democrats, I am preparing an\nexecutive order which will give guidelines to all state departments and\nagencies faced with planning in the absence of the annual budget.\nAt the same time, the argument over educational aid in the area of\n$395 million or $200 million is specious. We have put $105 million in\nadditional education aid for our public schools into the budget. There\nof this magnitude,\nare no funds available for alternatives which involve additional spending/\nAs for tax reform, I assured Assemblymen Zenovich and Unruh they\ncould and should proceed with the budget because we Republicans intend\nto move forward with a total tax reform program this session.\n########\nPB\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, Californi'\nContact:\nPaul Bec\n445-4571\n6-30-69\n#366\n3.\nGovernor Ronald Reagan late today sent the following message to:\nAgency Secretaries\nDepartment Heads\nThe President of the University of California\nThe Chancellor of the California State Colleges\nAll Constitutional Officers\nAll State Employees\n\"The present legislative situation is such that I am obliged to\nnotify you of the following:\n\"If the Legislature should not pass a Budget by midnight tonight,\nno expenditure can be made for the payment of salaries, purchase of\nsupplies, or for any other purpose from General Fund money until further\nnotice. Special funds with continuing appropriations can continue to\noperate, and expenditures made from them until present balances are\nexhausted.\n\"Any time or other service expended by a state employee to be paid\nfrom the General Fund after midnight of June 30 would have to be treated\nas a voluntary contribution, because after midnight (unless the\nlegislature passes a Budget) there will be no appropriation from which\nsalaries, supplies, etc., can be paid for; nor can existing continuing\ncontracts requiring the expenditures of state money be honored.\n\"There has been considerable discussion of a '1/12th' or 'skeleton'\nBudget which may or may not be enacted before midnight tonight.\n\"If such a Budget is enacted, which purports to authorize the\nexpenditure of one-twelfth of each item in the Budget as reported by the\nConference Committee, or one-twelfth of each item of the Budget as\nsubmitted by the governor, the addressees of this message will be able\nto encumber and allow to be expended one-twelfth of the appropriate item.\nThis does not necessarily mean one full month's operations, and great\ncare should be exercised that more than one-twelfth of the actual amount\ninvolved is not expended.\n\"Department directors and others who are under bond must understand\nthat there is, at the least, serious risk that they can incur personal\nliability if state obligations unsupported by appropriations are in any\nway authorized by them.\n- 1 -\n#366\n\"I realize that the instructions contained in this notification\nare necessarily lacking in the detail you would all appreciate and\nrequire. However, I am advised by the Attorney General's Office that this\nis a totally unprecedented situation and that there is no previous\nexperience upon which to rely, and that therefore all of your actions\nshould be guided accordingly.\n\"Naturally, as soon as we have additional information and guidelines,\nwe will advise. I am confident that the overwhelming majority of state\nemployees and officers will cooperate to the fullest by contributing\nwhatever time and service are necessary to ensure that the state does\nnot suffer during this wholly unnecessary crisis which has been forced\nupon us.\n\"We very much hope that the legislature will decide to act\nresponsibly and not subject the state to these intolerable absurdities. \"\n#########\nPB"
