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.
P) Hungary's Supreme Court
of Justice yesterday reduced the
death sentence of Dr. Simon Papp,
managing director of the Hun
garian subsidiary of the Standard
Oil Company iN.J.i to life in jail.
Papp was sentenced to death
on Dec. 9 by a "People's Court of
Justice." He was charged with
sabotage.
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.

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.
