Amdahl say the state should take over from counties the costs of funding trial courts and the public defense system. They appeared before the State Departments Division of Appropriations Feb. 9. Popovich says the state should assume these costs to ensure equal service and treatment for all Minnesotans, make judicial resources equally available to all parts of the state, and provide for more uniformity of service from the courts. The total biennial cost of the takeover would be $7 5 .5 million, according to Popovich. He's asking legislators for a $71 million appropriation for the 1990-91 biennium, and to require counties to turn over some fee and fine revenue to help reduce state costs. Amdahl says a state takeover of court costs would be a logical step in the process of current court reforms, and that state financing would solve some problems facing the judicial system. The property tax base varies too greatly from county to county to allow for uniform Members of the Minnesota House of Representatives recited the Pledge of Allegiance funding.

Extracting kaolin would require open pit mining of about 80 acres of land for about 20 years, says Brice. Such a mine would produce about 200,000 tons of clay annually. Clay mining would create many local jobs in product refining and transportation industries. Brice also says land reclamation and environmental protection would naturally follow the mining operations.

Representative-elect Linda Runbeck took the oath of office in the House Chamber during the floor session Feb. 9. Voters in District 52A (parts of Blaine, Circle Pines, Lexington, Mounds View, and Shoreview) chose Runbeck, an Independent Republican, to fill the seat Rep. Gordon Voss (DFL-Blaine) vacated earlier in the year. Runbeck will serve on the Governmental Operations, Health and Human Services, Insurance, and Local Government and Metropolitan Affairs committees. Her office is room 329 State Office Building.

She pointed out the disparity The building, scheduled to open in the process. during an appropriations division hearing fall of 1991, will cost $55 million in Feb. 6. Pappas recommends that the St. Paul school keep records of women and minorities in science programs if their goal is to increase participation. Acad­ emy officials have asked the state for $100,000, about 28 percent of their projected budget. Legislators recommend that the school renew its request.

Should the governor's budget include the lieutenant governor's budget? The Appropriations Commit­ tee's State Departments Division dis­ cussed the idea at a Feb. 6 meeting where they considered constitutional office budgets. The lieutenant governor's budget is the only constitutional office for which the governor recommended an increase. The $50,000 increase would go toward several children's initiatives, which the lieutenant governor has undertaken at the governor's request. Committee Chair Rep. Phyllis Kahn (DFL-Mpls) says it "shows an additional link to the governor's office that might make a joint budget more acceptable."

Small- and medium-sized businesses may attend free or low cost seminars that teach business people how to tap foreign markets, among other things. Minnesota Trade Office (MTO) officials told the Economic Development Committee's International Trade & Technology Division that they offer a variety of services to enhance Minnesota's place in international trade.
