Mark Hatfield's original net re ceipts income tax bill Wednesday flight as the second Senate-House tax conference committee began searching for a compromise in come program. The House also asked for it cig arette tax. and a onc-shol 8"crd up of withholding tax collections. The net receipts proposal was voiced by Hep. Richard Eymann, D Marcola, only holdover con feree from the committee which disbanded Tuesday night because the Senate would not accept the cigarette tax and net receipts pro posals. House Minority Leader F. F. Montgomery, It - Eugene, is the other House conferee. Stadltr on Committee The Senate team includes Don ald Husband, It-Eugene, and Glen Stadler, D Eugene. Stadlcr was named after Senate President Ben Musa's plan to name an all-Republican panel was dropped when Sen. Anthony Yturri, It Ontario, said he did not want to serve on the committee. The net receipts bill proposed by Eymann is the Hatfield bill that was tabled by the House Tax Com mittee May 3. . The Income measure approved by the House and rejected by tho Senate was a modified, net re ceipts plan much less extreme than the governor's proposal. A similar net receipts bill cleared the House In 1930 and ,. 1961, but each time was killed by the Senate Tax Committoo beforo it had a chance to get to tho Sen ate 'floor. This is $148,296 more than the governor recommended. The second will provide $5.1 million for special classes for children who are physically han dicapped, mentally retarded, gift ed, or migrant and for cur riculum improvement. The subcommittee increased the governor's recommendations for special programs by about $300, 000, adding substantially to pro grams for retarded and handi capped, while cutting state aid for the migrant program to summer classes only. Procedures Overhauled In addition to approving sums of money, the subcommittee thoroughly overhauled basic school fund procedures. Accepting proposals by Rep.

The trial was concluded with a jury verdict favoring the plaintiff, after two days in the court of Cir cuit Court Judge Don H. Sanders. The case involved an alleged false arrest. The suit was brought for the Moore boy by his guard ian ad litem, Marion W. Moore. Smith was named as manager of the Safeway store in Sutherlin, where the situation allegedly took place. According to the complaint, the Monro boy and others were In the store, and when they left they were followed by Smith, brought back, detained and accused of theft from the store. The plaintiff alleged the arrest was "malicious and false. The complaint had asked $2,500 general and $2,500 punitive damages. . school children from those be tween 4-20 to those between 5-17, then it changed the per - child amounts of money accordingly. Thus, rnder the Mosser formu la the state will chip in $143 per child the first year, and raise it to $152 the second year. T h i s compares, under the present for mula, to the $130 the governor proposed over the two years. Un der the present formula, the state now is providing $120. Separated basic aid to schools from the special programs. The special programs now will have to stand on their own, and seek new funds every two years. Aslo decided to distribute money this biennlum that has been accumulating in the com mon school fund (derived from state-owned lands). This one-shot source of revenue will account for about $6 million of the state's aid to schools in 1963-65.

Larceny Charge Dropped Against Photographer A charge of larceny of personal property over the value of J75 against Robert Leber, 32, of 633 SE Jackson St., Roseburg, has been dismissed on motion of Dist. Ally. Avery Thompson. The dismissal was signed Wed nesday by District Judge Gerald R. Hayes, prior to a preliminary hearing. Thompson stated, it was not possible to positively identify tne personal property involved as being the same as that allegedly stolen. Leber had been accused in complaint brought by Roseburg City Police with the theft of a 1958 model Speed Graphic camera from The Photo Lab May 8, 1962. He had been released in bail of $1,000. The motion for dismissal stated . , .there is no evidence to the effect that the camera in po session of the defendant may be identified as the camera that was taken from The Photo Lab, the vic tim, unless it were legally possi hie to base an inference on an in ference, and the Oregon Supreme Court has on more than one oc casion asserted that an inference may not be utilized in a criminal case; and for the further reason that It thus results that there is not a prima facie case of larceny as specified In the complaint, and it is. therefore for the best interest of justice that the matter be dismissed." f.iltlv. ID Uncertain Thompson said The Photo Lab owners were unable to make a positive identification that the cam era in question was the same one that was taken from their place of business. Thompson said that it would have to be inferred it was the same camera based upon a se rial number (which was the same as that of a camera insured by The News-Review) which had been sold to The Photo Lab. It stated it would have to be inferred that this was the same camera, since it cannot be posi tively identified by The Photo Lab. Leber had maintained that he purchased the camera from a drug store in Springfield. Congress Set To Let Wheat Program Stand WASHINGTON (UPI) -A con- gress that has grown weary of larin suusiaies seemea conieni to day to let wheat farmers have a taste of the free enterprise pro gram for which thev voted. Although the congressional atti tude may change in the coming months, the prevailing sentiment today was against enactment of any legislation to moderate the consequences for wheat farmers of their refusal to submit to strict production controls on the 1964 crop. This was so even thoueh a hand ful of farm belt Republicans vow- ea mey wouia "pound away" in an attempt to bring pressure on congress to enact new wheat leg islation. The wheat growers in a national referendum Monday rejected President Kennedy's new control program. Only 47.7 per cent voted lor n. ine plan required a 66.7 per cent majority to become effective. As a result, if no new legislation is enacted, government once sup ports for wheat will drop from $2 a ousnei to around 31.25 a bushel at about the time that the 1964 presidential election campaign is getting under way. Morever, only those growers who voluntarily comply with planting restrictions win oe assured Sl.25. other grow ers will have no price guarantees. "I don't know." Kennedy replied when he was asked at his news conference Wednesday what the political consequence of this would oe for mm in the 1964 elections. The President said that wheat growers had chosen freedom to produce without controls and with out high price supports. "Even tnougn I didn t agree with the cnoice, he said, I recognize and accept it and we hope that it does not have an adverse effect."
