t BINIT MD 6 Truman Tax Increase Urge Backed By CIO Union Calls For Higher Levies On Corporations, Hits Sales Tax Proposal WASHINGTON iP Th CIO, barling the administration's re quest for a S10.000.000.000 Ux in crease, called for sharply higher corporation levied than the House approved and took a swipe at busi ness groups which have urged a sales tax. The labor organization said $10, 000.000,000 additional revenue nearly $3,000,000,000 more than a house-passed bill would raise is needed to put the' government on a pay-as-you-go basis this fiscal year. In a statement prepared for the senate finance committee, Stanley H. Ruttenberg, director of t h t CIO's education and research de partment, urged that corporation taxes be increased $5,000,000,000 instead of $2,855,000,000 as voted by the House last month. Loopholes' Plugging Atked The CIO official declared that another $2,500,000,000 should be raised by closing "loopholes" in present tax laws. And he proposed an additional S2.5O0.0OO.OO0 boost in individual income taxes. Rut tenberg endorsed virtually the en tire house bill provision which would hike individual levies 12"t percent to raise $2,847,000,000. He urged, however, that the com mittee reject another house provi sion calling for a $1,252,000,000 boost in excise taxes on cigarets, alcoholic beverages, automobiles, gasoline, electrical appliances and a variety of other items. "To impose higher taxes is to ration commodities according to the ability to buy and not accord ing to need." Ruttenberg declared. Salat Tax Plan Hit He also hit hard at the National Association of Manufacturers and olher business organisations which have proposed one form or another of national sales tax to raise most or all of the additional revenue required. "Their program is to tax the poor, tax the low-income individ ual, give relief and incentive to the wealthy." Ruttenberg said. "They say. 'shift the burden from the backs of these corporations and wealthy individuals to the backs of the poor and low-income peo ple.' " Ruttenberg said the house pinvison for a flat 12'a percent in crease in individual income taxes is based on "a sound and funda mental principle of developing and maintaining a progressive tax structure, one which is based upon the ability to pay, which places the tax burden upon those individuals most able to afford the tax in creases." Chairman George (DCs) said that the finance committee prob ably will reject proposals for a national sales tax. At the same time, he told reporters he doesn't like the plan for a flat 12'i per cent income tax increase. He made it clear, however, that he thinks individual income taxes will have to be raised, adding that he hopes to work out some for mula other than the one approved by the House.

Water had been gushing out the side of the hill and running down the street. The break was near the top of the hill on the Jackson street side. The pool was filled after repairs were made.

Disunity Due To Petty Personal Feuds, Resolution Declares Fifty seven memberi of the Foseburg Kducation association Saturday prepared a resolution protecting the resignation of Paul S. Klliott as superintendent of Boseburji schools, John A. Lucas, president of the association, re ported. The resolution was prepared to be read to the school board meet ing tonight at 7:30 in the Junior high school. The 57 members present at the R EA meeting Saturday unani mously passed the resolution, re questing the school board to refuse to accept Elliott's resignation. Elliott's resignation was a n nounced Friday. At the time El liott said: "I'm convinced that it's for the good of the school system and the unity of the school board." Personal Feuds Seen The Pose burg Education asso ciation's resolution states: "We believe that fo a great ex tent this disunity is caused by petty personal feuds, and that the ac ceptance of Mr. Elliott's resigna tion would not accomplish unity to Via. hansfit (if th Rnhiirff irhiVal system " Unnamed officials of the school board were spotlighted in the res-1 olution which continues: "If a resignation is necessary to accomplish unity, that resigna tion would best come from offi cials of the board." The resolution further asserts: "We consider Mr. Elliott an ex cellent educator and administra tor. We have bee- able to see the fine iob which he has done in building up the Roseburg schools. New Centract Urged "We respectfully request the Roseburg board of directors to re fuse to accept his resignation and instead to tender him a new five year contract and a promise of the complete support of all members in an effort lo have him alar and continue his fine work in Rose-1 burg.

OREGON MONDAY, JULY designation Protested Martial Law by police rifle fire and army tanks, gave violent impetus to the ten sion between the Communist Tu deh and Mossadegh's Nationalists, which has existed since the na tionalization law was passed in May. T h Mossadegh government, while standing firm on its pro gram to get the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co. out of Iran, is worried about Tudeh efforts to use the popular oil nationalization issue to spread Communist influence and disorder. Today's crackdown on the Tu deh Is the sharpest since the at tempt to assassinate the Shah in 1949. Since then the Tudeh party has been outlawed but has con tinued to flourish under such front organizations as the "Partisans of peace" and the "Society to Fight the Imperialist Oil Companies."

O) Destructive Peak Passed In Kansas, leaving0 Damage Figured Over Half-Billion KANSAS CITY. SIo. (AP. The nation's costliest flood passed iU destructive, peak in the Kansas City area today and surged on eastward in Missouri. Bi't this met jopolitan area of 900.000 persons and east ern and central Kansas still reeled from the impact of high waters. The twin furries of fire and flood lashed at Kansas City, Mo., and Kansas City, Kas., for the fifth consecutive day. Four industrial districts were under water. Transporta tion was crippled. The water supply was curtailed. A seven block fire bttrnod fiercely and destructively just as it has since last Friday. In eastern and central Kansas, the swollen Kansas river and its tributaries receded generally, permitting soma of the thousands of homeless to return to mud-caked areas. More than 75,000 persons in both states wera driven from their homes.

A little over a week, ago. Com munist Hungary ordered out Al bert W. Sherer Jr., second sec retary of the American legation at Budapest, and Miss Ruth Tryon, head of the U. S. information serv ices there. In evident retaliation, this gov ernment Sunday handed formal no tic to Hungary ts withdraw La ins Nagy, second secretary and charged'affaires, and Peter Var- konyi, attache. In both instances, the method I waa the same a declaration that each of the diplomata was "pej-sona non .grata." or unwel come. Under long diplomatic tra dition, that leaves the home coun try, no alternative hut to with draw the person involved, Washington and Budapest have had several brushes in the past year. ' A Hungarian court convicted Robert Vogeler. an American businessman, on spying charges. Jo obtain his -tcne, the it, S. agreed lo lift a ban on private American travel in Ifungjry and allowed that country to reopen consulates in New York and Cleve land, closed in an earlier row. Hungary's action in declaring Sherer and Miss Tryon unwelcome came after the II. S. reiecled ita request to bring them home. Pro secution witnesses had attempted to implicate both in the trial of Catholic Archbishop Groesz, con victed of working against th Red regime in Hungary, The American government de nied the charges and asserted that the whole thing was a propaganda move against the west. At th same time it withdrew the two, thia government closed down all ita cultural activities in Budapest and accused the Hun garian Reds of brazen falsehoods and terrorism (gainst their own people.
