Albert Seltzer, chief of the State Health Department's social services program, said the legislation (SB 1863, Song) enables California to participate in the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children. Seltzer said the compact provides for uniform procedures between member states for placement of children in foster homes, for adoption or for institutional care. He emphasized that the compact is not a substitute for existing state legislation, but is Cutting Through Red Tape meant instead to provide full, legal protection to children by its uniformity of regulations governing interstate child placement.

Seltzer said that often the needs of a child or those of concerned adults cannot be served adequately by the available services or administrative programs of a single state. No state acting alone can provide safeguards in another state. "With the compact," he said, "services, activities and family ties can cut across state lines, under the uniform rules. Children who have been placed with a California family may remain with that family in a new state, assured of the protection Dunlap Pushes Job Plan Sen. John F.

Dunlap (D-Napa) today introduced urgency legislation which he said was "'intended to cut state bureaucratic red tape and put more people to work in local communities throughout California." Dunlap said: "Under the Work Experience Program of the new federal job law, the emphasis is on job creation. State law now requires local agencies that contract with the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) for pension benefits to pay 10.5 per cent of wages to the state fund even for Work Experience Programs which are temporary in nature. This federal money should be used to produce employment rather than enrich the PERS. "It's time to cut through the bureaucracy and see that employment opportunities are maximized. SB 312 will exempt both employes and employers from PERS contributions under the temporary Work Experience Program.

This will not only increase money available for jobs, but will also allow the currently unemployed to keep a greater share of their paychecks when the finally get in the program." Under the new federal program to provide more public employment at the local level, two categories of jobs have been developed: public service employment and work experience. Under public service, local agencies are required to employ at least 50 per cent of the employes originally hired under the 13-month program after the program expires on a continuing basis. Work experience program is temporary employment and does not require local agencies to continue to provide employment after the federal program lapses. SB 312 applies only to the work experience program. Dunlap's office indicated that local agencies participating in the federal program must contribute approximately 10.5 per cent of the employe's salary to PERS and the employe must contribute 7 per cent of his gross School Menu Menus for the coming week have been announced by the food services office of the Napa Valley Unified School District.

THURSDAY: Mock Swiss steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, relish carrots, fruit salad, rolled wheat pan bread. FRIDAY: Fish and chips with catsup, carrot, cabbage and a apple salad, applesauce, spicy pan bread.

A Adoption given to California children." Under the compact, jurisdiction over a child is retained by the sending state. The receiving state supervises the child and reports on the case to the sending state. Seltzer pointed out that the compact will increase opportunities for adoption, particularly for older children and those with special needs, traditionally those who are hard to place. "The placement of California children out-of-state will not be the most important feature of this association." he said. "I think the greatest effect will be the uniform and orderly protection provided to children who leave California, and the protection given to children placed in Easier California from other states." The Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children was originally drafted by al New York state legislative committee in 1960.

Shortly afterward, 15 states, principally in the East, Southeast, and Midwest, joined the compact. A total of 39 states are expected to be 'members within the foreseeable future. The compact was created 1 to simplify many unilateral and often conflicting state laws and administrative procedures. One significant advantage is the mechanism it provides for clarifying and establishing jurisdiction and continuing protection for the placement of children across state lines.

According to Frank James, city manager of the City of Sonoma, who was responsible for bringing the problem to Dunlap's attention, the County of Sonoma would be able to provide employment for an additional 15 individuals if the PERS requirement was waived. Dunlap said: "Fifteen new jobs may seem a small matter when Sonoma County has an unemployment rate of per cent; however, I can assure you that it will be very consequential to the 15 families benefiting. "If SB 312 can increase the number of jobs available to Californians, we have at the very least contributed to the solution of our economic crisis. It is the time to coordinate federal, state, and local efforts.

State government must respond flexibly."

Siegler Wants All Classes Eligible For Duty On Jury All Californians whose names are drawn would be required to be available for jury duty under legislation introduced by Assemblyman Alfred C. Seigler (D-North Bay).

The only exception would be persons who have served during the last year. "The present law is unfair in the extreme. Seventeen classes of people including such archaic occupations as Ferry Tollgate Keeper are exempted from jury duty," said Siegler. "Our system of justice guarantees a person a fair and speedy trial by a jury of his peers, but in practice, a great deal of time is consumed corralling a dozen people. Their com- Refuse Painting, Cherubs Too Fat LONDON (UPI) A midwives school at Crumpsall Hospital in Manchester has rejected an offer of a reproduction of a painting by Flemish master Peter Paul Rubens because the cherubs are too fat.

The painting of "Christ Child, St. John and Angels," shows four chubby babies with round faces and bulging stomachs. The school's officer, Kathleen Malin, refused to hang it in the school. "We don't want fat, overweight babies anymore," Miss Malin. She sent the picture, on loan from the Red Cross, back to hospital administrator Daniel Ellis.

"We know these days that babies must not be obese, because it's very bad for their health," she said.

Youth Cut With Knife mon qualifications seem to be they have fewer demands on their time. "I'm certainly not knocking those who serve on juries. They are to be commended for their public spirit. I'm just concerned that so many do it so often and others never at all. "No Californian should be able to routinely duck the responsibility of citizenship because they have a loophole in the law.

"That goes for people like me elected officials and it includes professionals such as doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, teachers, ministers and faith healers," Siegler Siegler said, "Among others automatically exempt from jruy duty are members of the armed forces, prison guards, shiphands, mail men, telephone and telegraph workers, police and firemen and railway workers. "In other words, millions of Californians can't even be considered. This leaves the unemployed, the retired and homemakers as the most frequently used jurors. Why should they have to shoulder so much of the public burden? And is it justice to depend on the judgement of such a small percentage of our society?" Siegler said. The North Bay lawmaker explained that while his legislation would delete the 17 classes of exemptions from the code of civil procedure, the courts would still have discretionary power.

Persons could be excused from jury duty for various reasons including "undue hardship upon himself or members of the public served by him, which would result in a loss of livelihood, extreme inconvenience or which would obstruct or delay the fair and impartial administration of justice."
