Veteran Union Foes In Public Display Of Harmony IN ENGINEER puts the amphibious "Terra-Gator" through its paces recently. Jfhe vehicle, with its six-wheel drive and fiberglass body, gets its traction and jpuch of its buoyancy from huge "Terra-Tires" developed by Goodyear. The inique vehicle is manufactured by Andy Stewart, Inc., of South El Monte, Calif. JUPI Telephoto) WASHINGTON (UPI) Thei AFL CIO prepared for its 8th anniversary convention with 3 public display of harmony be tween eteran antagonists George Mcany and Walter V. Reuthcr. But informed sources said the conflict was not far below the surface and might erupt at the li.bor federation's convention (opening Thursday in New Yorkj City. Meany, AFL-CIO president, has taken steps to minimize dis sension over racial discrimina tion in union ranks and internal disputes on job rights. He and Reuther, auto work ers' union president and widely regarded as the second most powerful AFL-CIO leader, also agree on the need for increased political action by labor in 1964 and the importance of reducing unemployment. But they differ sharply over Meany's handling of a Canadian American labor dispute and this could develop into a .loor fight at the convention. Reuther also has moved to transform the AFL-ClO's Indus trial Union' Department, which he heads, into a "little CIO" by sharply expanding its role in or ganizing, lobbyii.g and state local affairs. Aides of the red-haired VAW chief say that be decided to in crease the department's activi ties because he felt that the AFL-CIO under Meany's direc tion was doing too little in these fields. But there was virtually no chance of Reuthcr challenging the 69-year-old Meany's re election for another two - year term at next week s convention. IVany's allies contend that Reuther's influence witliin the AFL-CIO has never been at a lower ebb. Reuther was unable to muster! the votes of all the former CIO members of the federation's ex ecutive council, for example, in a recent showdown with Meany over filling a council vacancy. Meany's choice John Grogan of the Shipbuilding Workers was selected over Reuther s hot protests.

Pint Ph. 673-3379 trie's Leaders Fail To Interpret Jet. 15 Vote As 'Stop Spending' Edict ' SALEM (UPI) There appears U :be an almost fanatical re fusal on the part of some of to state s leaders to admit that t Oct. 15 tax defeat meant SfOP SPENDING. Hany lawmakers and state of ficials are frantically scurrying about in search for the "true meaning" of the referendum election. Sales tax proponents interpret the vote as a mandate to in troduce a new tax to Oregon. Friends of education claim the voters support education, but didn't like the legislature's tax increase bill. Some law nakers privately want to retaliate against the rtters by enacting a scries of nuisance tuxes. Jiow Mark Hatfield has called! or n-passage of the one - shot spee'i it withholding collec-i turns to oring in $12 million this biennium a part of the tax bjl! tiie voters rejected. But few indeed are the state's leaders who suggest the QVct. 15 vole was a demand for economy. "It would be' difficult to im agine two men with ' more di vergent philosophies than Sec retary of State Howell Appling Jr., and Senate President Ben Musa. Yet they agree on one thing. They feel the Oct. 15 vote WAS a mandate to stop spending. There arc many reasons to believe they are right. The loudest pre-election cry was that a "No" vote would he a vote against education. Edu cators felt the public would re spond. They did they voted 3 1-2 to 1 to defeat the measure. It now appears three major! blocks of opinion will emerge at the special sessions begin ning next Monday. The Musa bloc opposes re- enactment of the one-shot bill, or any other new revenue source, including a sales tax. This group wants general state economy, with the biggest cuts to come out of basic school support. Basic school cuts can be offset at the local level by increased property taxes, and this group feels the local school district voters should be free to FIRST-OF-THE-WEEK make their own choice about how much they want to pay for education. The Hatfield nlan calls for on- antmpnl nf the nne-shnt meas ure, general state economy, and la less severe cut in basic school funds. Then there are the sales tax people, who insist the voters on Oct. 15 were demanding a new form of taxation, not budg ni puts The agricultural bloc seems solidly behind the sales tax as a method of casing tne lnsil nrnnpi-tv tax burden. Most of the sales tax bills proposed to date nave inciuaca provision for a proper'y tax offset. Farm pre want lower DroDertv taxes. They also want feed, seed and fertilizer exempted, nrprrnn voters havj rejected sales taxes five times in the past 30 years. There also is some support fnr a ricarette tax. Voters have i rejected this idea six times j since 1926. The length of the special ses sion may depend on how firmly the Musa bloc stands for no new revenue. f yoUlLUVtTOSKOrAT,... , XT" If" m i, t m i . . m ' i FALL FESTIVAL OF VALUES The STYLE SHOP features these outstanding values from among a storef ul of quality women's apparel.
