Sts if Correspondent i Sacramento, April 8 (UP) Despite the outward confidence of Gov. Culbert Olson, the state assembly remained at loggerheads today while Democratic leaders spent the week end trying to jockey support for a record biennial budget which comes up Monday. Twice postponed, the budget bill will provoke sharp arguments. On one side. Governor Olson insists that no changes be made.

The Republicans propose to trim off more than $30,000,000 through a series of 200 amendments. A few Democrats are likely to join the solid Republican front and block the required 54 votes for majority passage. Biggest stumbling block is the that the $72,000,000 unemployment relief item should be withdrawn from the budget and handled as a separate appropriation bill, carefully earmarked to prevent unwise expenditure of state funds. Olson and State Relief Administrator H. Dewey Anderson strenuously oppose any such withdrawal, contending relief has been an integral part of the budget and should remain so.
