Poughkeopsl Journal Phots by Robert NIM Legislators Face Budget, New Reapportionment Plan Mrs. Wiseman ALBANY, N.Y.

(AP) New York's legislators headed today into a busy week in which they'll get Gov. Rockefeller's proposed budget and a plan to restructure the state's 41 congressional districts. Rockefeller will reveal to a Joint session tomorrow details of the no tax, election year budget recommendation, designed to carry out the legislative program outlined in his "State of the State" message Jan; 7. The proposed budget is expected to be in excess of 7 billion, a record. But Rockefeller has said he believes income from the state's natural growth will provide the balance required by the state constitution The reapportionment plan could be revealed today.

Its Republican architects put the fin ishing touches on it last week and said they were prepared to report it out today or tomorrow for a vote later in the week The legislative committee was working against a Jan. 30 deadline to redraw the congressional districts to comply with the S. Supreme Court requirement for a "one man, one vote" form of representation In New York State, this should mean districts of 410,000 population Some districts, notably those on Long Island and in Manhattan and The Bronx, are well under this level and others are well above it Bell Seeks Uniform Tax Maps ALBANY Assemblyman Clark Bell (R Ulster) has introduced bills asking for uniform tax maps for all New York State counties, mandatory training for assessors, and systematic reappraisal of each parcel of land on tax maps at least once every four years. Bell's proposed legislation calls for the state to pay for setting np the new system of tax maps while the counties pay maintenance and operation costs thereafter. Bell said the need is long overdue for establishing statewide uniform real estate taxing procedures and methods administered by trained person nel on a systematic, orderly, and equitable basis.

"This tax maping appraisal and assessor training proposal can provide much needed reform and retain local home rule in a system of elected and trained assessors," Bell said "I certainly hope the legisla ture will pass some form of real property tax reform measure at this legislative session as well as make an effort to help equalize the heavy tax burden on real estate," he con cluded I'PrfppSiSNy w5iilBIBfry tfPSyfflgJBy The district having the most excessive population 435,880 is one in Buffalo represented by rnaddeus J. Duiski, a Democrat While the legislators redraw ing the congressional lines worked behind closed doors, enough detail leaked out that it became known some incumbent congressmen would be thrown into the same districts. Among these are Reps Daniel Button, a Republican, and Samuel S. Stratton, a Democrat. The redrawn congressional districts will be used in the No vember election.

Rockefeller and all state leg islators will be seeking re e'ec tion hi the November election and this was a maior reason the governors no tax budget naa Deen expected The 1969 70 budget was $6 4 billion and a 70 71 budget In excess of 7 billion could mean an increase of 14 per cent. It would appear, then, that the Republican governor is banking on continued growth in the econ omy under a Republican ad ministration in Washington Among other things, the growth would be reflected in the state personal income tax and the three per cent sales tax Rockefeller frequently has ex pressed great faith in the soundness of New York's broad based and diversified business enterprises A major part of his budget is expected to deal with increases in aid to education. He already has committed himself to an ad ditional $300 million to schools in the next school year This falls short, however, of the $395 million recommendation of the chairman of the leg islature's study committee on education, and the $795 million demand of Democrat minority leaders Rockefeller also has proposed an extra $136 million for wel fare to pay for increases in the cost of Jiving Welfare spending is pegged at just under $1 bil lion for the current fiscal year EDWIN F.
