ate
Democratic Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson of Texas said Tuesday
lhat unless public works conslruc
lion is speeded immediately the
only alternative cure for the re
cciion is a tax cut.
Johnson told an informal newt
conference that he believes the
time is approaching when a de
cision must be made.
And he said he doesn't believe
the Eisenhower administration is
proceeding as swiftly as it should
with the public works spending
authorized by Congress. "
"If we are unable to get pub- C "!' T" .

to do something else to help the
economy, Johnson said.
"I am concerned about (he
statements on our condition that
are coming out daily, particular
ly that made by the Federal Re
serve Bank presidents.
"t i,.t, w m AiA- 1 John Martin Verberkmoes,
I think we should decide soon 7fl f a..a ... i,.ni

alternative but tax revision."
Under the constitution, tax leg

House.

The Democratic leader's re

there is renewed pressure in Con-
eress for earlv tax cutting moves
But Sen. Knowland ( Calif I. the
Senate Republican leadef, told re

Gill said income taxes, cannot

were voted, he would veto it, as

West Powers
Complete Draft
Of Message
WASHINGTON jT - The Lnited
States, Britain and France com
pleted drafting a new message to
Moscow Tuesday. It it understood
to reject Russia's demand that Po
land and Czechoslovakia be in
cluded in diplomatic talks at sum
mit issues.
The draft, worked out by top
State Department officials with
the British and French ambassa
dors, has been referred to London
and Paris for final approval.
The Western attitude to the pro
posal made by the Soviet govern
ment last Saturday apparently
talks will have to be held in a
series of separate meetings be
tween Western ambassadors and
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Gromyko.
This arrangement had been re
jected by the Western powers last
week but is now considered pre
ferable to accepting the idea of
parity for East-West conferences.
It was that principle which the
Soviets were seeking to establish,
officials here said, in insisting that
Poland and Czechoslovakia should
sit in with Russia in any summit
negotiations involving the lnited
States, Britain and France.

Informal Hearing
Set At Reedsport
On Umpqua Study
An informal hearing by the U. S.
Army Corps of Engineers has been
scheduled at the Reedsport City
Hall May 5 to acquaint residents
of that area of an apparent lack
of justification of protective works
along tile Lower Umpqua.
A letter received Monday by Ben
B. Irving, head of the Water Re
sources Survey office, said the
meeting would start at 8 p.m.
In the letter, Col. Jackson Gra
ham, district engineer of the Corps,
said the studies to date indicate
that under current and forseeable
conditions, little, if any, protective
work can be justified for the Low
er Umpqua area.
He said also that it would be
necessary for any such works to
avert flood damage would require
that local interests, share in the
cost of the work to a considerable
extent.
For this reason, he said it is
considered important to inform lo
cal interests of findings in a basin
wide study now being conducted
and learn views at this preliminary
hearing before the basin wide
hearing.
The basin-wide surey is expect-'
ed to be completed within the next
few months. i

Gromyko Dismisses
As Sheer Publicity
Arctic Inspection
MOSCOW I Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei Gromyko dis
missed at "a matter of sheer pub
licity" Tuesday President Eisen
hower's proposal for international
inspection of the Arctic.
lie said the United States made
the proposal because, "they sim
ply need intelligence data con
cerning the Soviet territory."
He spoke 'at a news conference
at the Foreign Ministry.
"One can hardly help conclud
ing that the authors of that pro
posal have once again proved that
their plant do not provide for ser
ious discussions of either the prob
lems of disarmament in general
or the problem of preventing a
surprise attack in particular,"
said Gromyko.
The foreign minister spoke out
as debate on the arctic inspection
plan opened in the U.N. Security
Council in New York. The Soviet
Union proposed to the council that
the question he referred to a sum
mit meeting.
Gromyko told correspondents:
"The value of this proposal, which
would include in the area under
inspection vast territories of the
Soviet Union but would not include
an inch of the territory of t h e
United States proper, is self-evident.
"Besides the whole of this ques
tion of inspection is detached from
any practical steps toward dis
armament and is transformed into
a matter of sheer publicity."

Slot Machines
In Grants Pass
Seized In Raid
GRANTS PASS I Telt slot
machines were seized in two vet
eran! clubs here Monday by police
and sheriff's deputies.
A charge of illegal possession
of slot machines was placed
against Harold Moon, manager of
the American Legion Club, where
eight of the machines were taken.
Four of the devices were seized
at the Veterans of Foreign Wars
Club where the steward, Elmer
Riblett, was arrested on a charge
of illegally processing gambling
devices.
The machines were stored in a
locked cell at the Josephine County
jail.
i Warrant for the seizure was
I issued by Dist. Ally. Max Mc.Yiii
lin. He based it on an affidavit
by Akin Edmund Graham, 31,
who had been booked earlier on
a bad check charge.
Graham told deputies he cashed
worthless checks because he had
j lost money playing slot machines
at the two veterans' clubs.
Police said they were investigate
, ing nearly 1500 in bti checks
passed in the area in recent weeks
in connection with Graham's ar
rest. Community College
Law Topic For Dimick
The new community college law
passed by the last Legislature will
be discussed tonight by Dan Dim
ick, candidate for circuit judge, at
a meeting of the Woodworkers' Un
ion in Reedsport.
i Dimick, a state senator, was a
co-sponsor of the Community Col
lege Law and a member of the
Senate Education Committee.
i Announcing the subject of his
talk, Dimick said it is necessary
to inform people throughout the
i state of the importance of the com
munity college program. "Within
the next 6 to 10 years there will be
an influx of college students that
will cause a staggering load on
the taxpayers to provide student
facilities at our universities. If our
universities are not drastically ex
panded, a great many worthv stu
dents will be denied the privilege
of a college education."
Dimick said the answer to the
problem lies in the establishment
of community colleges throughout
! the state.

Paratroops Delay
Jumps As Strong
Winds Continue
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky.
Weathered-in air bases and IS
mile-an-hour surface winds here
Tuesday kept more than 2.500
paratroopers from salvaging even
a practice jump from cancelled
Exercise Eagle Wing.
Treacherous ground winds, dis
covered in a test jump bv Maj.
Gen W. C. Westmoreland, cut
short the S.OOO-man drop Mondav
and ended the exercise with half
that number already in the air.
The remainder of the men of
the 101st Airborne Division, still
at scattered launching bases when
their commander called off the
war games, were scheduled to
begin arriving at dawn and land
by parachute in a training jump,
rather than by airplane.
Maj. L. A. Breault said the
planes were unable to take olf
Tuesday as scheduled, and so far
ground winds at the base were
too high for jumping if the planes
should arrive overhead. He said
there was a remote possibility of
a training jump late Tuesday
afternoon by some members of the
501st Battle Group from planes
flying out of Sewart AFB, near
Nashville, Tenn.
Estimating, Appraising
Timber Said Complicated
(Continued from Page 1)
said his agency's appraisals now
allow an average exceeding 20 per
vein.
Finally, the system of measure
ment for reaching the conclusions
is often difficult, he said.
The differences in reaching the
appraisal conclusions were made
evident by the two men. Hogan
called them efforts to "please as
many people as possible.
Obviously unimpressed was the
third member of tire panel, Jim
Girard. He called them "account
ing prodedures." He said his com
pany had neither the time nor staff
for "long, drawn out methods-of
appraisal." He continued that his
I company demands a cruise of at
least 10 per cent of volume in in
1 spec-ting sales. He concluded that
the main difference between indus
try and the two federal agencies
is that industry has to be a "lit
tle more right" even though it
doesn't have such intensive ap
praisal formulae.
The next meeting will involve
a field trip for the foresters to the
i state tree nursery in Elklon June 7.
