NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1949 FIVE Fair' Withholding Tax or Repeal Is Labor's Demand SALEM, Ore., Jan. 21 said yesterday it urgamzed labor s wants the Leeislature eithpr to repeal the 1 percent withholding tax on income, or to make it more iair. , Kelley Loe, publicist for the .State Federation of Labor who said he also was speaking for the CIO, told the Senate Tax Commit tee yesterday that the tax now 3s unfair. He urged that if the law stavs on the books, the tax be changed so that a man's dependents are considered. The law, in effect for the past year, now provides every employ ed person pay 1 percent of his paycheck. Then the accounts are balanced at the end of the year. The employee either has to pay more to the Tax Commission, or he gets a refund check. Sen. Dean H. Walker, chairman of he Committee, told Loe he thinks that allowing exemptions S would make too much bookkeep- ing for the employer. ' But Loe pointed out that the federal government allows exemp tlonsin its withholding tax, and that a state system on the same line wouldn't add too much work to the employer. Loe opposed a State Tax Com mission proposal to exempt farm labor and domestics from the withholding tax. He said the law was passed two years ago for the primary, pur pose of making migrant farm workers pay the tax, as most of them had been evading the regu lar state Income tax. Lqe said the withholding tax is designed to catch a lot of income the state wouldn't get otherwise, so to exempt farm workers would de feat the purpose of the law. Death Sentence of Papp Commuted by Hungary BUDAPEST, Hungary, 'jan. 21.

At the time the court said Papp got instructions "from several members of the American Com mercial Mission in Budapest" to reduce production of oil wells under the postwar government. f T WALLPAPER CLEARANCE 4 IMPERIAL WUPAPERS Now Vffclp lis I L w m m ON ALL STOCK PATTERNS 111 No; Jackson St. Phone 330 f i , t r. rv- ' iW:iWStofdl ftifcl llliHIliilIHiHII lliii.lill mM'iiV, ' , i FORMER RESIDENT FEATURED Pictured above are Hollywood personalities Hal Berger (left) and Lionel Stander (right), who take starring roles in the story, "Casey at the Bat," to be heard on Sunday night's "Favorite Story" broadcast on KRNR at 7:30. Tris Speaker, of baseball fame, asked by producers of "Favorite Story" to name his best loved piece of literature, without hesi tation selected Thayer's baseball classic, "Casey at the Bat." The title role of "Casey" will be played by Stander, with Berger featured as "Hank," Berger will, no doubt, be remembered by Roseburg residents from visits to th KRNR studios during his brief stay in Roseburg early in 1947. Berger, at that time, ap peared in a guest-capacity on several local programs, then pro moted and produced a play for KRNR with an all-local cast, which was broadcast under the title, "Murder for Ducks." Berger is awell-known and popular baseball commentator on the West Coast, which explains his splendid performance in "Casey at the Bat." He also played the title role in his own radio series "Shaffer Parker,' (Mutual-Don-Lee), before becoming a sports-caster.
