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.
Recommendations Due
The administrators will recom
mend to the City Council that:
1. Options be taken on the prop

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.

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

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

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.

Viet Nam, which is close to the

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. Bolivian Student Dies

Bathtub, Throne
HERAKLON, Crete (UPI)
Mrs. Jacqueline, Kennedy today
saw a 4,000-year-old bathtub of
Ihe Minoan queen and the oldest
throne in the world.
She came ashore this morning
from the yacht Christina to look
a', relics of ancient Minoan civil
ization on the second stop of her
Greek island tour.
Accompanied by Mr. and Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr. and her
sister, Princess Lee Radziwill, she
was welcomed at Heraklion by
Mayor Nicholas Krassadakis and
the captain of the port. About 30
islanders had gathered to cheer
her arrival.
After a three-mile drive through
the scenic countryside, she arrived
at Knossos, site of the ruins of
the 4,000-year-old Palace of Minos
and once the, capital of the Minoan
empire.

that all passed by great major
ities, The largest negative vote
cast on any one of them was 31
votes out of 2,298.
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.

matters of terminology of no gen

amendments authorizing the use
of modern languages instead of
