Also, welfare offices are\nreporting a great many calls for an explanation of why checks received\nare for amounts less than authorized by the new law.\nAccordingly, Governor Reagan today issued the following statement:\n\"Due to hasty and uninformed court decisions in the last few days\n(including a feeble eleventh hour attempt by the State Supreme Court\nto correct its own error), the courts have succeeded in delaying\nwelfare payments to thousands of needy recipients, preventing payment\nof deserved increases to thousands of others, and thoroughly confusing\nthose responsible for administering the system at the state and county\nlevel as well as the public in general.\n\"The resulting damage to the system, and resulting hardship and\ndeprivation of the truly needy, will require a great deal of additional\ntime, money and effort to correct.\n\"I am confident that the official team, headed by Welfare Director\nBob Carleson and the state and county welfare officials who had the\ntremendous task of implementing the Welfare Reform Act in only 45 days,\ncan still bring about order and will, out of compassion for those who\nneed the help, work around the clock to repair the damage.\n\"Further bungling interference by the courts regardless of\nintentions, or honest errors, regardless of how soon they are corrected,\nwill simply prolong the discomfort of those they purport to be\nprotecting and will add unnecessary costs to the program.\"\nSecretary of Human Relations James M.

The\nconstant pressure for additional permissive school\ntax overrides or the extention of such overrides\nerodes local control by taking from the voters\nthe right to participate in the determination of\nspending priorities. I am taking this action\nreluctantly; however, I feel there must be an end\nto the practice of bypassing the voter in matters\naffecting the financing of programs at the district\nlevel.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\" the\ngovernor said.\n#####\nWAS\n-5-\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE:\nIn\ndiate\nSacramento, California\nContact:\nPaul Beck\n445-4571\n10-4-71\n# 544\nThe following is the text of a telegram sent by Governor\nReagan to John Cantwell, Attorney at Law, representing Cemetery\nManagement, and Maurice Fitzgerald, Business Representative for the\nCemetery Workers and Greenskeepers Union:\n\"On behalf of the citizens of the City of San Francisco\nand the Counties of San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara and particularl\nthe families of the unburied dead, we propose that the distressing\ncemetery strike be resolved in the following fair and equitable manner:\n\"That a tripartite arbitration panel be immediately formed,\none member to be designated by the union, one member designated\nby the employers and the third member to be named from our statewide\nroster of qualified arbitrators in consultation with the supervisor of\nthe State Conciliation Service.

They also did not\noffer any substantive reasons why it should not have been approved. They\napparently were not concerned with good government.\"\nThe governor referred to action by Assembly Democrats which killed\nthe administration's Reorganization Plan No. 3. The plan would have\ncreated a new Department of Environmental Protection within the Resources\nAgency. The agency itself would have been renamed the Environment and\nResources Agency.\n\"This plan would have enabled us to mobilize all state agencies to\nattack our pollution problems on a united front.\n\"It would have consolidated within state government the top\nspokesmen and experts on our environment and would have given\ncomprehensive coordination to the many agencies of state government now\nattacking the problem separately.\n\"Our plan would have kept California ahead of federal environmental\nactivities and would have provided positive action on future areas of\nconcern such as solid waste management,\" the governor said.\n\"It is very regrettable that some Democratic legislators, who\ncontinually pose as protectors of the environment until it comes time for\nthem to take action instead of spouting rhetoric, put politics above the\ngood of the public.\n\"This administration is committed to protecting California's\nenvironment and making it a state we can proudly pass on to our children\nwho rightfully expect us to give them a legacy of a clean land, clean air\nand clean water.\n\"We will continue to keep that commitment.\n\"Meanwhile, I sincerely hope that the Assembly Democrats will\nreconsider their ill-conceived action and put principle above petty\npolitics,\" the governor said.\n#####\nPB\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, Californ\nContact: Paul Beck\n445-4571\n10-5-71\n#548\nGovernor Ronald Reagan announced today that he has vetoed AB 950\n(Fong).\nIn announcing the veto, the governor said:\n\"This measure would remove from parents their right to consent to\ntheir children's participation in venereal disease instructions.\n\"I am aware that venereal disease has reached epidemic proportions\nin many parts of this state. I agree with educators and public health\nofficials that there is a pressing need for effective venereal disease\neducation programs in our schools. Such education should continue and\nnew programs should be developed.

It is incumbent upon us to guarantee and guard the\nright of every person in our state to pursue the fulfillment of\nhis or her capabilities without discrimination or prejudice.\nLaws have been enacted and edicts issued to prohibit discrimina-\ntion in employment, housing, schools, public accommodations and\nall other places of business; but these are not enough. Justice\ndemands that every citizen consciously adopt and accentuate a\npersonal commitment to affirmative action which will make equal\nopportunity a reality.\nTo increase this effort I am issuing an Executive Order to redefine\nthe existing Code of Fair Practices for the State of California in\na manner which will emphasize equal opportunity and fair practice\nin all activities of the state.\nPlease post the attached Code of Fair Practices to insure widest\ndistribution to all personnel in your department.\nSincerely,\nRacard Reagne\nRONALD REAGAN\nGovernor\nCALIFORNIA CODE OF FAIR PRACTICES\nAs the 33rd Governor of California, I believe it imperative\nthat we, the servants of all the citizens of our State, continue\nto exert every effort to correct any inequities which heretofore\nmay have been, or may in the future be imposed on a person simply\nbecause that person differs in some way from the majority. That\nwe guarantee and guard the right of every person in our State to\nenjoy to his or her fullest capability the birthrights of our\ndemocracy without discrimination or prejudice. To this end this\nState has enacted laws to prohibit discrimination in employment,\nhousing, schools, public accommodations, and all other places of\nbusiness.\nTime and experience have proven that laws and edicts are\nnot enough. Justice demands that every citizen consciously adopt\nand accentuate a personal and public commitment to affirmative\naction which will make equal opportunity a reality.\nTo meet my personal commitment and the obligation of our\nState and under the authority vested in me by the Constitution,\nI hereby affirm the following Code of Fair Practices to be the\nofficial policy of the Executive Branch of the State of\nCalifornia.\n-2-\nARTICLE I. POLICY DECLARATION\nEqual opportunity for all citizens is the policy of the\nState of California in all of its activities. Employees shall\nrigorously enforce that policy.

This contrasts sharply with what is happening\nin other states across the nation where soaring welfare caseloads continue\non the upswing,\n\"The figures show that during the month of September, there were\nnearly 10,000 fewer Californians on welfare than in August, and 115,008\nless than we counted on the rolls a half year ago,\n\"Had the Reagan administration not pressed vigorously for welfare\nreform had we not instituted administrative reforms wherever and wheneve\npossible our projections show there would be over 300,000 more people\non welfare than there are now.\n\"I want to emphasize that the six-month drop in the number on\nwelfare reflects only the administrative reforms we have put into effect.\nThe impact of California's new welfare reform law will not be felt until\nNovember or December.\n\"It is worth noting that last month the number of recipients on\ncounty financed general relief decreased by more than 3,000 in spite of\nearlier claims of some that any decrease in state funded welfare programs\nwould automatically push more recipients onto county relief rolls.\n\"The fact is, the total general relief caseload in the state has been\nreduced twenty percent over the past six months.\n\"Even if the declining trend we have established begins to level out\nin the months ahead, the fact that we in California have been able to\nconfound the so-called welfare experts who said it couldn't be done for\nsix straight months reaffirms our strong conviction that the approach\nwe have taken to bring welfare back under control is sound, that it really\nworks, and points the way to true reform.\"\n####\nEJG\nState of California\nDepartment of Social Welfare\nHuman Relations Agency\nManagement Information Systems\nOctober 19, 1971\nPUBLIC ASSISTANCE CASELOADS AND EXPENDITURES\nSeptember 1971\nAid Recipients\nPayments\nProgram\nSept. p/\nAug. p/\nSept.\nSept. p/\nAug. p/\nSept.\n1971\n1971\n1970\n1971\n1971\n1970\nGrand total.\n2,178,569\n2,188,135\n2,046,100\n$158,602,920\n$162,268,608\n$143,274,336\nCash grant recipients\n2,096,716\n2,103,220\n1,944,473\n154,621,730\n157,830,493\n139,009,683\nGeneral home relief\n81,853\n84,915\n101,627\n3,981,190\n4,438,115\n4,264,653\nAveragea/\nAGED PERSONS\nCash grant recipients\n317,976\n318,201\n318,652\n106.19\n106.42\n107.01\nBLIND PERSONS (AB/APSB)\nCash grant recipients\n14,005\n14,123\n13,869\n150.69\n154.53\n154.24\nDISABLED PERSONS\nCash grant recipients\n190,872\n190,289\n179,887\n128.87\n129.00\n124.83\nFAMILIES WITH\nDEPENDENT CHILDREN\nCash grant recipients:\nFamily groups:\nchildren\n931,999\n925,734\n839,953\n80.70\n83.12\n76.09\ncases\n393,309\n389,518\n341,307\n191.22\n197.53\n187.27\ntotal persons\n1,295,224\n1,287,313\n1,173,601\n58.07\n59.77\n54.46\nUnemployed cases:\nchildren\n149,751\n157,447\n136,732\n81.27\n84.29\n73.54\ncases\n53,907\n55,819\n46,572\n225.76\n237.77\n215.92\ntotal persons\n244,627\n259,358\n224,940\n49.75\n51.17\n44.70\nBoarding Homes and\nInstitutions:\nchildren\n34,012\n33,936\n33,524\n161.94\n167.38\n151.28\nGENERAL HOME RELIEF\nTotal persons\n81,853\n84,915\n101,627\n48.64\n52.26\n41.96\nFamily cases\n10,406\n10,909\n16,171\n56,15\n62.14\n67.10\nPersons in family cases\n33,289\n35,252\n61,174\n17.55\n19.23\n17.74\nOne-person cases\n48,564\n49,663\n40,453\n69.95\n75.71\n78.60\nUnemployed in labor force (%)\n5.9\n6.9\n5.8\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\n(Seasonally adjusted)\n(7.1)\n(7.0)\n(7.0)\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\nCivilian population (excluding\nmilitary)\n20,041,500\n20,016,300\n19,767,200\nXXX\nXXX\nXXX\nCash grant averages for adult aids computed from \"net\" person counts.\nb/ Excludes U cases.\np/ Preliminary.\nCALIFORNIA NELFARE RECIPIENTS\n2.5\n2.4\n2.4\n2.3\nUNREFORMED\n22\nMILLIONS OF PEOPLE\n2.1\n2.1\nACTUAL\n20\n1.9\n18\n0\nJUL Ave SEP OCT Nov DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL Ave SEP\n1970\n1971\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, Californi\nContact: Paul Beck\n445-4571\n10-20-71\n#584\nActing Governor Ed Reinecke today asked the federal government\nto make funds available to prevent flood damage for fire ravaged areas\nin Santa Barbara County.\nIn a telegram to Office of Emergency Preparedness Director George\nA.

I know that many of them regard this bill as\na way out of their dilemma.\n\"Yet, I am convinced that any short-run advantage gained\nfrom SB 522 would be far outweighed by its long-term detrimental effects\non the cling peach industry itself, on California agriculture generally\nand on the economy of the State.\n\"The bill would authorize acreage certificates to limit the\nnumber of acres from which cling peaches may be marketed. This type\nof interference with a free market is undesirable and it will not work,\nexcept perhaps temporarily.\n\"Prospective new growers would be limited to no more than a\ntotal of 500 acres annually, although the bill ostensibly makes 500\nacres the minimum rather than the maximum. This is a restraint of\nfree enterprise with which this administration cannot agree.\n\"An arbitrary curb on production, if reflected in a higher\nprice for the end product, could intensify and encourage competition both\nat home and abroad from foreign cling peach canners and from other canned\nfruits. This would inflict great economic harm on California peach\ngrowers.\n\"The bill has other specific defects, such as the unrealistic\nrequirement that findings be made of the estimated supply and market\ndemand for three years in advance of the current marketing season.\n\"For these reasons, I feel that I must veto SB 522. This is\nwith full recognition of the many economic problems plaguing the industry.\nMany cling peach growers have suffered considerable economic hardship and\nare in need of help to develop solutions for improved stability. To this\nend I am asking our Director of Agriculture, Jerry Fielder, to meet with\ncling peach industry representatives to seek other methods of solving\nthe economic problems of producers.\n\"Our objective is to seek long range and lasting solutions to\nthis type of problem.\"\nWAS\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, California\nContact: Paul Beck\n445-4571\n10-27-71\n#593\nFollowing is the text of a telegram sent by Governor Reagan\nto President Chiang Kai-Shek of the Republic of China:\n\"Mrs. Reagan and I want you to know how deeply shocked and\ndisappointed we were by the completely immoral action of the General\nAssembly of the United Nations.\n\"I have told the President of my displeasure at what can only\nbe described as the moral bankruptcy of an organization now reduced\nto the level of a kangaroo court.\"\n# # #\nPB\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, Californ\nContact:\nPaul Bec\n445-4571\n10-28-71\n#594\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today announced the following bills have\nbeen signed:\nAB 426 - Burton\nExtends the time period to 35 years in which the\nChapter 1253\nCity and County of San Francisco must issue bonds\nfor harbor purposes and lowers the minimum amount\nof such bonds to $25,000,000.

The bill specifies\nthe content of elementary and secondary school programs\nto aid such pupils and establishes standards for the\npersonnel involved in such programs.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"Our state has always included those who come from\nmany nations. The education of some has been\nhandicapped because of lack of proficiency in the\nEnglish language. One important approach to helping\nthose who are language handicapped in their educational\nachievement is an effective system of bilingual\ninstruction.\n\"I am vetoing this particular bilingual education bill\nbecause I feel it is imperative that we direct\nprograms in a manner which will most effectively insure\nthat our language handicapped students achieve their\nfull potential in the shortest period of time.\n\"AB 115 offers uncertainties in our quest for the\nabove objective. It mandates that all school\ndistricts establish bilingual education programs and\nthat these programs include mathematics, science and\nsocial science taught in the foreign language native\nto all English handicapped students. This would be\ndone before we know the true dimension of the problem\nand the teaching resources available. We know there\nare over a half million Spanish speaking children\nalone in our state, some of whom are not proficient\nin English. We also know there are a limited number\nof teachers trained to serve the needs of foreign\nlanguage speaking youngsters so as to bridge\neducational deficiencies where they exist.\n\"Assembly Bill 115 would not provide school districts\nwith the flexibility to employ their resources to the\nhighest and best use. We should recognize that at\nthe present time there are over $8 million in federal\nfunds being spent by California school districts each\nin its own way exploring solutions to bilingual prob-\nlems. The Department of Education has properly\nestablished a Bilingual-Bicultural Task Force to\nevaluate and to learn from existing programs. This\ntask force has not completed its mission, It is\nworking on a Master Plan to cope with bilingual and\nbicultural deficiencies. It is hoped that the plan\nwill offer goals for districts and will inventory\nteaching personnel and curriculum resources available.\n-3-\n#594\nAB 115\n\"The executive and legislative branches of government\nREASON FOR VETO:\nshould have the information this group is gathering\n(Continued)\nand the advice of the Department of Education before\ninvesting the limited tax resources available for\nthis worthy and high objective.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning this bill unsigned,' the\ngovernor said.\nAB 550 - Foran\nProvides a yearly allowance of $150 for uniforms,\nrevolvers and distinctive accessories of California\nHighway Patrol members, payable upon proof of purchase.\nThe bill appropriates $850,000 from the Motor Vehicle\nFund to finance such allowances.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"Although the appropriation in the bill from the Motor\nVehicle Fund would represent current fiscal year costs,\nit should be pointed out that should this bill become\nlaw, a like amount would have to be reflected in the\nHighway Patrol's budget for each successive year, since\nthe bill calls for an annual uniform allowance. The\nbudgeted amount would also have to reflect any future\nincrease in the uniformed strength of the Patrol.\n\"While I am concerned over this substantial increase\nin State government costs, I believe a more basic\npolicy question is raised by this bill. Providing\nfor the cost of uniform allowances for state employees\nshould not be approachedon a segmented basis.\n\"Additionally, I believe any decision on uniform\nrequirements and allowances for state employees\nshould await careful consideration of the\nrecommendations made by the legislative analyst in\nhis report prepared pursuant to Senate Concurrent\nResolution No. 62 (Res. Chapter 67). In that report,\nthe analyst recommends that the State Personnel Board\nconduct a detailed review of the entire subject of\nstate employee uniform requirements, and that any\naction to provide uniform allowances prior to this\nreview and resulting recommendations would be premature\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\" the\ngovernor said.\nAB 790 - Brown\nMakes the University of California and the California\nState Colleges subject to the Government Code provision\nrelating to payroll deductions.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"AB 790 is unnecessary inasmuch as the California\nState Colleges and the University of California\nalready provide for payroll deductions for their\nacademic and nonacademic employees.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned, the\ngovernor said.\n# # # # #\nWAS\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, Californ\nContact:\nPaul Bec\n445-4571\n10-28-71\n#595\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today met with State Superintendent of\nPublic Instruction Wilson Riles, Henry Gunderson, President of the State\nBoard of Education, and Dr. Louis Saylor, Director of the State Department\nof Public Health, to discuss California's venereal disease epidemic\nThey agreed that no changes in existing state law are necessary to\ninstitute a series of guidelines aimed at accelerating anti-VD\ninstruction programs in public schools across the state.\nThe governor, in pledging the full resources of his administration\nto assist the State Board of Education and Riles' State Department of\nEducation in the establishment of such guidelines, said they \"will help\nschool districts and schools which have not already done so to begin\nvenereal disease instruction immediately.\n\"We agreed that there is, right now, clearly enough authority in the\nlaw to initiate a crash program to combat VD, \" he said.\n\"The fact that parents must be notified in advance should not\ninhibit or hinder putting such vital instruction as this into effect\nimmediately.

Carleson today hailed a\ndecision by the State Third District Court of Appeal overruling the\naction of a Sacramento Superior Court Judge who attempted to block the\nimplementation of a major provision of California's new welfare reform\nlaw.\nIn effect, the Appellate Court today removed from the jurisdiction\nof Superior Court Judge William M. Gallagher's court any further judi-\ncial action on that part of the massive Welfare Reform Act which\nrequires adult children to contribute to the support of their needy,\naged parents.\nCarleson praised today's appellate court ruling as \"bringing us a\nstep closer toward removing the uncertainty and confusion\" which\nresulted from a restraining order issued October 14 by Judge Gallagher.\n\"Now we can get on with implementing this part of the new welfare reform\nlaw which was passed overwhelmingly by both houses of the legislature\nand signed by the governor August 13.\n\"We have been deeply concerned,\" Carleson said, \"about the issuance\nof temporary restraining orders by the courts without providing prior\nnotice to the state---hence effectively denying the state any opportunity\nto fully present its side of the issue. Such orders cause tremendous\nconfusion, not only at state and county administrative levels, but also\namong welfare recipients themselves.\"\nCarleson noted that on October 14, five hours after the State\nAttorney General had filed an affidavit to disqualify Judge Gallagher\nfrom conducting any further proceedings on this provision of the new\nwelfare reform law, Judge Gallagher chose to ignore the affidavit and\nissued a temporary restraining order anyway. The Attorney General's\naffidavit stated that Judge Gallagher was \"prejudiced against\nthe\ninterest of\" the state and that a \"fair and impartial trial or hearing\nbefore such judge\" was not possible.\n-1-\nOne week later, + Attorney General argued fore the appellate\ncourt that Gallagher's court had \"prejudicially abused its discretion,\nand acted contrary to law in entering and filing the\nOctober 14 re-\nstraining order and order to show cause, in that the Honorable William\nM. Gallagher\nwas disqualified from executing and causing to be filed\nthe restraining order and order to show cause, by virtue of the\nprevious\nmotion for disqualification.\"\nThe appellate court ruling today stayed Judge Gallagher's earlier\naction and restrained the Sacramento County Superior Court from \"all\nfurther proceedings.

The bill also\nprohibits the sale and possession with intent to\nsell, after June 1, 1972, of any fish, bird,\namphibian, reptile, or mammal specified in\nprescribed provisions of the Penal Code, even though\nthe part or product may lawfully have been possessed\nor imported prior to 1970.\nSB 166 - Short\nAppropriates $956,000 from the General Fund for the\n(Chapter 1299)\npurpose of payment of night-shift differential\n(Signed with deletion) compensation to State civil service employees\nworking on evening or night shifts established on\nor after July 1, 1971.\nREASON FOR\nDELETION:\n\"I am reducing the appropriation contained in\nSenate Bill No. 166 from $956,000 to $640,000.\n\"The State Personnel Board estimates that $640.000\nwill be needed for night shift differential\npayments for the period November 15, 1971 through\nJune 30, 1972. The reduced appropriation reflects\nthe Personnel Board's estimate.\n\"With the above reduction, I have approved SB 166,\"\nthe governor said.\n-4-\n#600\nGovernor Ronald Reagan has announced the Veto of the following\nbills:\nSB 679 - Stevens\nReplaces the Director of General Services with the\nDirector of Finance on the State Board of Control\nand makes the Controller the chairman thereof,\nrather than the Director of General Services.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"The Department of General Services was\nestablished to administer many of the housekeeping\nfunctions of the State and to relieve the Director\nof Finance of the statutory assignments to many\nboards and commissions. This bill would reverse\nthis policy decision and restore the Director of\nFinance to membership on the Board of Control.\n\"The types of claims and other action items coming\nbefore the Board of Control fit most closely with\nthe statutory responsibilities carried by the\nDirector of General Services and make him especially\nwell qualified to make decisions on these issues.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\"\nthe governor said.\nSB 1338 - Wedworth\nPermits Medi-Cal providers to assign receipts from\nhealth care claims to third parties no earlier than\n30 days after submission of claims to fiscal\nintermediaries.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"There has not been any real need demonstrated for\nthis proposal which would introduce an unnecessary\ncomplexity into the accounting for and payment of\nMedi-Cal claims, requiring additional personnel\nand increased administrative costs.\n\"The bill is written so that all Medi-Cal providers\ncould have all their recurring expenses, such as\ntelephone bills, gas bills, etc., paid through\nassignment and would thus shift their bookkeeping\ncosts to the fiscal intermediaries and ultimately\nto the State and the general taxpayer.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\"\nthe governor said.\nPeTRis\nSB 861 - Kennick\nMakes several amendments to the Health and\nSafety Code provisions relating to the management\nand operation of local housing authorities. It\nexpands the definition of the term \"housing project'\nThe bill requires housing authorities to include\none tenant as a commissioner. The bill also\nrequires a written statement of reasonable cause\nfor eviction and a grievance procedure before\nany eviction action is filed. The bill also\nmakes changes relating to the right of entry of a\ntenants dwelling, tenant liability for damage to\na dwelling, requirement for public notices, waiting\nlista, and a requirement that certain documents\nbe translated into languages other than English\nin certain cases.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"My principal concern with SB 861 is the provision\nthat mandates the appointment of a housing\nauthority tenant as one of the commissioners of\nthat authority. While I have no objections to a\ntenant being appointed as a member of an appointive\nhousing authority, I believe that local governmental\njurisdictions should have maximum latitude and\nflexibility in appointing such members. Senate\nBill 861 would, if enacted, remove that flexibility\nby mandating tenant membership.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\" \" the\ngovernor said.\n-5-\n#600\nAB 2155 - Knox\nClarifies what Election Code violations constitute\ngrounds for ineligibility to register to vote.\nREASON FOR VETO:\nAB 2155 apparently seeks to reflect the decision of\nthe California Supreme Court in Otsuka V. Hite\n(1966). The court in that case discussed the type\nof crimes that would constitute a threat to the\nintegrity of the elective process' for the\npurpose of determining eligibility to register to\nvote, The Hite decision did not limit such\noffenses to violations of the Elections Code.\n\"Any statutory guidelines developed to aid county\nclerks in the uniform administration of this part\nof the elcetion law should include those other\ncrimes that also constitute \"a threat to the\nintegrity of the elective process.'\n\"Accordingly, I am returning the bill unsigned,\"\nthe governor said.\nAB 2891 - Crown\nAppropriates $1,200,000 for the support of services\nto physically handicapped children.\nREASON FOR VETO:\n\"Over $11.5 million has been appropriated during\nthe current fiscal year for the Crippled Childrens\nService program. AB 2891 seeks to augment that\nappropriation. I feel that it is inappropriate to\nfurther augment this program at this time.\n\"Accordingly, I am returning this bill unsigned,\"\nthe governor said.\n###\nWAS\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nMEMO TO THE PRESS\nSacramento, Californi\nContact: Paul Beck\n445-4571\n10-29-71\n#601\nGOVERNOR'S SCHEDULE\nNovember 1, 1971\nthrough\nNovember 7, 1971\nMonday, November 1\nOffice appointments\nOvernight - Sacramento\nTuesday, November 2\nOffice appointments\nOvernight - Sacramento\nWednesday, November 3\nOffice appointments\nOvernight - Sacramento\nThursday, November 4\nAfternoon\nDepart for Los Angeles\n6:00 p.m.\nTaping of David Frost Show, KTTV Studio,\n5746 Sunset Boulevard\nOvernight - Los Angeles\nFriday, November 5\nAfternoon\nDepart for Seattle\nEvening\nRepublican Fund Raiser, Olympic Hotel\nOvernight - Sacramento\nSaturday, November 6\nNo appointments scheduled\nOvernight - Sacramento\nSunday, November 7\nNo appointments scheduled\nOvernight - Sacramento\n# # #\nPB\nOFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR\nRELEASE: Imr diate\nSacramento, Californ.\nContact:\nPaul Beck\n445-4571\n10-29-71\n#602\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today signed legislation that will impose\nstrict controls on the use of pesticides and sets up a licensing\nprogram for \"pest control advisors.\"\nThe bill (SB 1021 by Senator John A.
