UP) A Unit ed States spokesman yesterday branded false and "asinine double talk" a Russian contention that no four-power agreements exist for air regulations in the Berlin area.

HARVEY Jr. SALEM Ore., Oct. 28. ) Oregonians have voted on old age pensions at almost every election In the past 15 years, so this year's pension proposal will be nothing new. It has been de feated several times, both in the legislature and the people. The bill directs the legislature to pay $50 monthly minimum pen sions, compared with a little over $40, which now is the average. It would kick out the ruonc Welfare Commission, and have pensions horsed by a man ap pointed by the governor. The measure makes no provi sion to finance the extra pen sions, so the legislature would have to levy new taxes, these new taxes then would undoubted ly be referred to the. people, who probably would vote them down, as Oregon people have done for years on new taxes. To Restore Exemptions The next measure would reduce income taxes by increasing ex emptions, and it's a sure thing to pass. The last legislature submitted the sales tax to the people, and rigged it up' so that if the people defeated the sales tax, they would get higher income taxes. The people defeated the sales tax, and got their exemptions lowered from $1,500 to $1,000 for married persons, and from $750 to $500 for single persons. So the State Federation of Labor put this measure on the ballot to restore the $1,500 and $750 exemptions. There is much controversy over the next Initiative, which would allow hotels, restaurants, clubs and trains to sell liquor by the drink if they serve meals. The sponsors, which are the hotels, State Federation of Labor and American Federation of Musi clans, claim it would help busi ness, and they say It is unfair for a person to have to buy a whole bottle to get a drink. But the opponents, mainly the Oregon Council of Churches, say lt means the return of the saloon,' pointing out that a hotel or res taurant can serve liquor any place on the premises, not Just where meals are served. Vets' Bonus Proposed Newspaper opinion polls Indi cate that the people want the veterans' bonus bill, altho none of the veterans' organizations has en dorsee lt. itB sponsor is Koiancl mm C. Bartlett, Portland, a Demo cratic candidate for Congress. It would give maximum bon uses of $500 for each veteran, based on $15 for each month of domestic duty, and $25 for each month of overseas duty. But the bill, while authorizing $42,000,000 worth of bonus to finance the bonuses, makes no provision to retire the bonds. That would be some more taxes for the legis lature to figure out. Some lawyers claim the bill is worded incorrectly, charging that Oregon National Guardsmen who entered service before Pearl Har bor, would not get their bonuses. No Fist Fight Seen The lflth measure on the ballot prohibits salmon fishing in the Columbia silver and tributaries with fixed gear, such as fish traps, pound nets, fish wheels, set nets, weirs, or seines. The sports fishermen and the commercial fishermen are agreed on it, so the voters have been spared the usual fish fight be tween those two groups. The last measure " gives the voters a big chance. They can vote new taxes and it won't cost them a cent. Would Loosen Surplus The state will have a deficit of $6,400,000 at the end of this two-year period. But there is more than $40,000,000 piled up in income tax surpluses. These surpluses can be used only to re duce property taxes. So the measure, submitted by the Legislature, provides that $6,400,000 in property taxes shall be levied. But this property tax would be wiped out by the same amount of income tax surpluses. All it amounts to is using in come tax surpluses to wipe out the deficit, but under the com plicated legal machinery, you have to go all around Robin Hood's barn to get there. If the deficit remains by de feat of this measure, then the Legislature would have to levy other taxes which would be al most certain to be referred to the people and be defeated.
