J. Francyl Howard, editor and publisher of weekly newspapers in Albany and Corvallis, told UPI he expected to appear in the capitol at about 2:30 p.m. to we lor re ferral. Plan Announced Earlier Howard, president of the Citizens Committee for Economy and Equitable Taxation, announced on June 17 that ho would lead a re ferral movement. He filed a re ferral petition at that time, but it could not become legal until the tax measure was In possession of the secretary of state. He will have to re-file the petition before the legal machinery for referral can start. Meanwhile, Jack Thompson, elections supervisor for the secre tary of state, revealed another group had notified him of inten tion to refer the revenue measure. "I'm not at liberty at this time to say who It is," Thompson said. Howard told UPI he also had heard another group planned to file a referral petition. "That's fine with me," he said, "We'll merge with them or do whatever is necessary to get this bill referred. I don't care who does it, as long as it is done." Both Can Operate Thompson said there is no pro hibition against two groups circu lating petitions on the same meas ure. "It's never happened before that I know of," he added. Thompson said as soon as a pe tition is filed with him, he will send the measure to Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton. Thornton has 10 days In which to assign a ballot title to the bill. Then there is a 20-day period dur ing which the title may bo ques tioned. Circulation of referral petitions can begin as soon as the 20-day period ends. The legislature set aside $300,000 to finance a referral election, and set Oct. IS as tho date for a pos sible special election. A total of 23,185 signatures is needed to get the measure on the ballot. Howard said he had received promises of support from Bend, Klamath Falls, Medford, and other areas. "I've been assured of lots of help. I've had . a tremendous amount of support pledged by letter and by phone." Ireland Proves Contrast To Kennedy's Visit To Berlin DUBLIN (UPI) President Kennedy's brief pilgrimage to re live the pastoral past of bis Irish forebears provides a snarp con trast to the previous four days spent in Germany. From the grim, grey Berlin wall to the green fields of Erin in one day is quite a jump in both mood and motive. The President's bell - ringing four-day visit to West Germany, climaxed Wednesday by an emotion-packed tour of Berlin, may or may not have a lasting effect on the course of Allied pol itics and policies in Europe. Dip lomatic opinion is divided on this point. 1 lie resident s personal cnarm undoubtedly sparked much of the acclaim in Bonn, Cologne, Frank furt and Berlin.

Court Dismisses Case A charcfl of nhtatnlntf mnnnv hv false pretenses against Lloyd G. King, 40. of 1528 SE Pino St., has been dismissed by Circuit Court. A psychiatric examination Indicat ed he is mentally 111 and is to re ceive treatment at tho Veterans Administration Hospital. He was accused of passing a worthless is check at the Roseburg Color Center. adoration. However. Kennedy did not con sider himself engaged in a pop ularity contest with French President Charles de Gaulle or any other European leader. Strategy Emerges The President's strategy emerged more clearly each day in Germany and undoubtedly will be developed further when he visits Italy next week after a somewhat awkward day in Eng land with sorely beset Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. He seemed to be carrying on two simultaneous campaigns which he obviously believes may mesh to lessen the chance of nu clear disaster: To rally nervous Allies against attempts by De Gaulle and some others to downgrade the Atlantic alliance, and elimi nate suspicions that the United States may abandon West Europe when the chips are down. To convince West European leaders that the new Kennedy "strategy of peace" seeking ac commodations with the Kremlin does not mean that Washington will make any deals with Russia at the expense of its Allies. Weuld Be Worthwhile If be really won the firm and unyielding support ef the Ger man leaders and people for his strategy, the trip will have been worthwhile and he will have broken the back of any Franco German axis the only combina tion capable of providing the backbone for a European "third force." Kennedy and German leaders already agree on nuclear defense cooperation, including creation of a NATO multilateral nuclear force of Polaris-bearing ships manned by mixed nationality crews. But tbey decided a final Allied decision must await the end of political uncertainties in Britain and Italy. A multilateral nuclear force comprising only Germany and the U.S. would be a sitting prop aganda duck for Kremlin argu ments that Washington was fostering resurgent German mili tarism. Kennedy himself acknowledges that Europe at present is beset by too many political uncertain ties to make it possible to expect decisions on many major issues. But he hopes he has built a backfire against trends which could wreck the Western alliance and play into the hands of the Russians. Windy Creek Dam Project Given Airing Some 20-25 oersons turned ud for tho Douglas County budget hear ing Wednesday, with only three ob jections being voiced to the pro posed budget.

Geq. Curtis Bcecher, a member of the Water Resources Board, also appeared to request that $20,000 for studies on small dam projects on the South Umoaua river he put back in the budget for the coming year. This request was denied. A delegation from the library board, headed by chairman Gor don Carlson, appeared to request that funds for a second bookmo bile crew be put back in the budg et. This was also denied. County Judge v. T. Jackson said the Coun ty Court feels the library is doing an outstanding job, but added that with the main library, plus eight branches and one bookmobile, the court docs not feel the funds for operating a second bookmobile at this time would be justified.
