i The Nw-Revlw, Roseburg, Ore, Tues., Oct. 8, 1963 City Council Will Study Parking Mall Proposal The Roseburg City Council at its regular meeting next Monday night will study recommendations from city administrators which would initiate plans and property negoti ations in connection with a pro posed downtown parking mall de velopment. The proposal involves develop ment of a parking facility which would be financed from parking meter revenues.- Mayor Thomas Garrison, it was reported, has made preliminary ne gotiations for the acquisiton of the half-block property located east of SE Rose Street between SE Wash ington and SE Oak Avenues. The financing plan which wi'l be presented for City Council con sideration proposes acquisiton of the site through lease-purchase or land sale contract. The site proposed for the park ing facility involves two adjoining properties. They are the Lockwood Motor Co. ear lot at the northeast! corner of ik Hose and Oak and the property at the southeast cor ner of Hose and Washington which is presently being used as a pri vau'ly financed off - street parking facility. Under the plan, acquisition costs would be paid for solely from rev enues derived from on-street park ing meters and off-street parking meters on the proposed parking mall itself. City Manager Craig McMiekcn explained that a general obliga tion against the city would not ex ist and should future revenues from parking meters or, should future councils change the policy, the sale agreements would be default ed and the property returned to the sellers. j "In other words, properly taxes would not be obligated for the mu nicipal off street parking pro gram," the manager pointed out.

Wo were running late and most of the party had to return to the states for busi ness committments. We are grate ful for the concern of the people in the U. S." The group entered the canyon of strange winds, rapid water and gnarled crevices where the sun has never reached on Sept. 25.

(UPI Telephoto) U.S. Has Suspended $12 Million Aid Payments To South Viet Nam SAIGON (UPI) - The United States has suspended nearly $12 million commercial aid payments to South Viet Nam since the Au gust crackdown on the Buddhists and is considering further cuts, informed sources said here Mon day. The plan to further reduce aid is aimed at forcing political re forms from the government of President Ngo Dinh Diem, the sources said. It is reported now under consideration in Wash ington. The payments suspended since Aug. 21, when Buddhist leaders were arrested and pagodas closed, covered aid to imports. This program costs the United Sinatra To Give Up Gambling Interests LAS VKGAS, Nov. (UPI) -Frank Sinatra, "ace high" in the singing department, has "low snake eyes" in Iho gambling world. The singer, faced with revoca tion of his gambling license in this state of almost anything goes, said Monday he would sell his $3.5 million in casino holdings. In a surprise statement, issued through his attorney, Sinatra said he would devote full time to his vocal chords and music business. The state of Nevada filed a complaint Sept. 11 holding that Sinatra entertained Sam Giancana, a Chicago underworld figure, al the Cal-Neva Lodge at Lake Ta hoc from July 17 to July 28 of this year. Giancana is a listec in Ne vada's "Black Book," a loose-leaf compilation of 11 persons not wel come in the state's legalized gambling casinos on penalty of loss of license. "I was surprised, hurt and angered," Sinatra said, "that the Nevada Gaming Board asked. . , to revoke my license to partici pate in the gambling industry in Nevada. . . The singer allowed, however, that he had decided to give up his gambling interests six months ago well before the Sept. 11 date when the state filed action against him. The right to operate games of chance in Nevada is privileged and the industry is tightly con trolled under a so-called "hang tough" policy instituted by Gov. Grant Sawyer. The gaming control board held that Sinatra violated his right to operate when he catered to Gian cana. Hunter Still Critical CANYONVILLE, Ore.

DAVIS Custom Floors & Carped States $95 million a year, out ef the total $203 million economic aid. It finances more than 60 per cent of South Viet Nam's imports. The sources said further suspen sion of this commericial aid would amount to a reduction in the economic aid to this nation and could seriously affect its economy. This might have the effect of bringing policy or per sonnel changes on the part of Diem's government, they added. Related Developments (In related developments, the Soviet Union Monday tried to block U. N. approval of a fact finding mission to South Viet Nam. Diem's government offered to accept a team of U. N. mem bers to investigate the Buddhist dispute. But the Russians insisted that they and the British, as co chairmen of the 1954 Geneva con ference on Indo-China, carry out the probe. Diem s sister in - law, Mme. Ngo Dinh Nhu, arrived in New York Monday night to begin a 20-day tour of the United States. She said she hoped to explain her governments viewpoint to Americans.) The American-owned Times of Viet Nam, which is close to the Ngo family and often critical of U. S. policies here, was the first to disclose the commercial aid cuts. Its article Monday said the United States was using the cuts to put pressure on Diem. U. S. Embassy officials de clined comment, but it was learned Diem's government has not been told of the reasons for the aid suspension.

REFERRED TO THE PEOPLE BY REFERENDUM PETITION Title and Statement of Purpose PERSONAL AND CORPORATION INCOME TAX BILL Purpose: To increase state revenues. Abolishes federal tax deduction. Lowers personal tax rates. Provides minimum tax. Increases corporation rates. Effective on or after January 1, 1963. ESTIMATE OF FINANCIAL EFFECTS: If Ballot Measure 1 (Chapter 627, Oregon Laws 1963) is approved by the voters, it is estimated that the increase in state revenue over that which would be provided by existing law from personal income taxes will amount to about $24,750,000 per year or $49,500,000 for the biennium and the increase from corporate excise taxes on income will amount to about S350.000 per year or $700,000 for the biennium, based on present levels of income. The Ballot Measure also authorizes a possible "speed-up" of personal income tax payments withheld by employers that would permit an increase in 1963-1965 revenues by $14,000,000, without increasing the tax liability of the personal income tax payer. If Ballot Measure 1 is defeated, expenditures in the 1963-1965 biennium will need to be reduced by approximately $60 million below the level of appropriations made by the 1963 Legislature, or other revenues must be sought, or some combination of revenue in crease and expenditure reduction totalling approximately $60 million must be made in accord with the requirements of Article IX and XI of the Constitution of Oregon. Published pursuant to O.R.S. 250.121. G. into its own considerable foreign exchange reserves. Until the suspension, the Unit ed States was given dollars to Viet Nam to pay for essential im ports; importers were buying the dollars at the official rate of ex change; and the local currency was being used by the govern ment to pay for the miltiary bud get. , In effect, this meant that more than 60 per cent of the nation's essential imports were being fi nanced by the United States. A continued suspension of this aid would lead to inflation either through the printing of pap er money or the reduction of for eign exchange reserves and this in turn could turn Viet Nam's middle classes against the government, the sources said. They said the alternative would be for the government to relax its policies against the Buddhist leaders and other opposition fac tions.

The most important of the amendments approved today was designed to put much greater emphasis in Catholic worship on sermons, which always have oc cupied the central role In Protes tant worship but in the past often have been regarded as an option al appendage to the Catholic Mass. The proposal approved today said that sermons should never be omitted except for serious rea sons. It emphasized the impor tance of the priest using every Sunday Mass as an opportunity to explain the Christian faith and Christian living. The document said priests should base their sermons on the Bible and make extensive use of Scripture in all of their preach-' ing. J Another major amendment ap proved today is aimed at simpli-.' fying the rubrics or order of service of the Mass. It calls for omitting certain duplications and. eliminating non essential things which have been tacked on to the Mass over the centuries. A council press spokesman said fl.n nlinnnn 1 day were largely technical and matters of terminology of no gen eral interest. Still to come are a series of amendments authorizing the use of modern languages instead of Latin in a large portion of the Mass.
