Closed-Door Fight
Looms Today Over
Disability Measure
WASHINGTON House Re
publican squared off today for a
closed-door fight with Democrats
over presidential disability legis
lation. The Republicans were encour-
atrj m advance by Senate sub-
committee's acceptance of Presi
dent Eisenhower's views on the
matter.
Scene of the battle was the
House Judiciary" Committee,
which was set to take up again
the controversial problem of pro
viding for a temporary succes
sion by the vice president if the
president becomes disabled
So far the Democrats, who out
number Republicans on the coin
mittce, have been faithful to the
line laid down by Speaker Ray-
burn (D-Tex). They have held out
for a simple law on the subject
Eisenhower wants a constitutional
amendment.
Approves Amendment
A Senate Judiciary subcommit
tee approved an amendment pro
posal tailored closely to Eisen-
bower's views. It would authorize
a majority of the Cabinet to de
cide whether the vice president
should take over, in case a dis
abled president did not step out
on nis own volition.

Employers Will
Begin Paying
Higher Tax Rate
SA1.EM .iifi Twelve thousand
Oregon employers will pay higher
payroll tax rates beginning in
April, while 14,000 won't be af
fected, the Oregon Unemployment
Compensation Commission said
Thursday.
The 12.000 employers who are
aneciea nire aoout iwo-tniras ot
the workers in the state, however.
Because the unemployment trust
fund has been hard hit by heavy
unemployment, the rate next
month becomes a flat 2.7 per cent
of payrolls. The rate now ranges
from .6 to 2.7 per cent.
The flat 2.7 rate goes into effect
because the trust fund fell below
the 31. 5 million dollar mark.
By the end of the month, it will
be below 28 millions.
It is likely that the higher rate
will remain in effect for at least
six months, and possibly longer.
But the rate can't be reduced
again until the fund is built up to
the 31.5 million mark again.
The average payroll tax rate
now is 1.85 per cent, the commis
sion said.
There are 2.261 employers pay
ing at the 6 per cent rate, so the
new rate will be i'l times as great
for them.
