The petitions to the County Court must be com pleted and filed there, he said, as the first legal step in establishing the district, preliminary to the holding of a Fire District election. Marriott reiterated a previous statement to the effect that unless the residents of one. section, Old Hwy.' 99, between the Old Glendale Junction and Azalea, definitely ex press themselves as wanting to be included, their area will be drop ped from the proposed district. Attendance at meetings concern ing the district have been disap pointingly small, Marriott stated, and to date, there are less than half enough signatures on the peti tions to call for a vote. At present Ihe rural area around Glendale and as far north as Aza lea, which is included in the pro posed district, has no fire protec tion at all, aside from that given "by courtesy" by the Douglas For est Protective Association. Because of the lack of fire pro tection facilities, the area included in the proposed district now pays the highest fire insurance rate, more than two and a half times as much, for example, as that paid as nicuh, for example, as that paid in Glendale which has an effective volunteer department. The fire district, if it is formed, has first chance at a used Class A pumper at a price which can be paid, along with the cost of addi tional hoses and other equipment, in the first year of operation and without any need for bonding. The district would be able to handle all beginning costs and maintainance out of a 6-mill tax 'for the first year.

Jl'Pl) A political-religious demonstra tion .against Missouri's refusal ia provide public school bus trans portation tor parochial students was expected today to spread across the state. Catholic parents indicated that thousands of students would with draw today from church schools and enroll at public institutions.

Dirksen said today he planned new pro posals to reduce congressional abpses of expense account and counterpart spending by junketing lawmakers. The Illinois Republican said in an interview that he was: Drafting a measure to require traveling senators or. Senate com mittees to estimate their foreign expenses in advance and buy any required counterpart funds in Washington from the federal treas ury. This would be coupled with public reports within 30 days after the trip ended, and with a daily limit on official spending as now applies to domestic government travel. Preparing another proposal which would permit sale of U.S. owned counterpart money over seas to' American tourists, Dirksen said he might ask that a proviso be written into the for eign aid bill requiring that any rccipjent country agree to accept such funds from U.S. private citi zens. Four countries have agreed lo this, he said. Counterpart funds are local cur rencies held for official U.S. gov-' eminent spending in nations re ceiving American aid. Dirksen said he would discuss his proposals with Democratic Leader Mike-Mansfield, Mont., "in the hope that if we get an ac ceptable plan worked out he will join in its sponsorship." Other congressional news: Lobbying: House-Senate confer ees squared off today for a possi ble battle over how to change the 1902 Philippine War Claims Act to bar fees for lobbyists with in side information. The Philippine claims provision is a Senate rclcr to differing versions of a House Senate $1.5 billion supplemental appropriations bill. There was heavy House sentiment against the Senate rider and unless the differences can be solved, a dead lock similar to one which snarled all appropriations bills for most of last year is likely. Transportation: A Chamber of Commerce spokesman supported today President Kennedy's propos al to reduce controls on domestic j transportation. However, Walter I Cabot, in testimony prepared for the Senate Commerce Committee, said that if controls are relaxed, antitrust legislation should be ap plied to protect the public against harmful price fixing.
