from Minnesota legislators this week with his no new tax increase budget but a possibly elusive million which figures in the financing caused some concern Earlier the governor was sharply by DFL leaders and liberal legislators for submitting a long list of interim ments for confirmation while a recount is in progress The governor's budget message outlined plans to spend a record million during the next two million more than was appropriated two years ago Major increases included lion for education million for welfare and million for state departments Depends On U S Tax Cuts The governor said economic growth would so increase yields of present taxes that no new taxes would be necessary provided Congress enacts President tax cut program He said this would increase the state take by million and possibly as much as million Federal income tax payments are deductible in computing state taxes so state collections would rise if federal payments were reduced Some legislators in both vative and liberal camps raised their eyebrows at counting on the million They said it was dangerous to tie the state budget to a federal action that may or may not take place The governor rejoined that it would be possible to take another look at the budget problem if Congress has not acted by the time this session of the legislature nears its close Appoints 119 Persons At the beginning of the week the governor sent to the Senate a list of 119 persons he had to state boards commis sions and offices since the end of the 1961 legislature and asked that they be confirmed DFL leaders called this in statements referring to Andersen as pro tern nor Under state law he continues in office until the end of a recount proceeding to determine whether he or former Lt Gov Karl vaag the DFL candidate won the November election Liberals moved to have the Senate delay action on the until completion of the several weeks the delay would cause no hardship and that filling the posts should be the tive of the true governor Conservatives replied that the business of the state must go on despite the uncertainty about the governorship that the delay would create confusion and that the contest might not be over before the legislature ad- journs Session The legislature can remain in session for 120 days under an amendment adopted in November but leaders say they are mined to finish their work within the old limit of 90 days In a showdown on the liberal move for a delay on ments conservatives won which means motions to confirm will be made as committees com- plete their
