Sino Soviet Dispute May
Have Hit No-Return Point
MOSCOW (UPI) - Commu
nist China's attack on Premier
Nikita Khrushchev as a "Bible
reading, psalm-singing" buffoon
may mean the Sino-Soviet dis
pute has reached the point of
no retun, Western diplomats
said today.
The attack, printed in Chi
nese Communist newspapers
today, was unprecedented in
bitterness and ridicule, and
contained serious charges
against Khrushchev's foreign
policy as well as his personal
demeanor.
"No matter how much he
may praise himself, he will not
be able to cover up his danger
ous practice of recklessly play
ing with nuclear weapons or
fawning before imperialist nu
clear blackmail," the 18,000
word Peking statement said.
This was a reference to the
Soviet deployment of missiles

to Cuba and the agreement to
withdraw them under U.S. pres
sure in the fall of 1962.
China's blast appeared to be
direct defiance .of Khrushchev's
offer of a truce in the bitter
ideological conflict.
There was no immediate So
vict reaction, but some observ
ers expected the dispute to play
an important part in the Soviet
Communist party's Central
Committee meeting next
month.
There have been repeated re
ports here that another attempt
mieht be made to bring bovtet
and Chinese negotiators togeuv
er to work out some settlement
of the dispute. The last such
talks ended in failure last sum
mer. The increasingly vitriolic
tone of the Chinese attacks
made a new attempt also seem
foredoomed to failure.
Diplomats said until such a
meeting, indications were that
the Soviets would stand by their
policy of peaceful coexistence
with the West, as outlined in a
handbook of Soviet documents
on the dispute issued Monday.
The handbook called Peking's
positions "slanderous" and mis
taken, but it made no direct
personal attacks on any of the
Chinese leaders.
Street Littering
Curb Is Planned
Roscburg City Engineer Ken
Meng said Tuesday the city is
beginning a campaign to gain
the cooperation of winter con
tractors which the city hopes
will eliminate the tracking of,
mud onto city streets and do
away with unsightly conditions
which have developed in some
areas. .
Mcng explained that while
several types of construction
contracts are being carried out
during the winter months
trucks and other vehicles which
travel from the contract area
onto city streets often track
mud onto those streets.
This mud is packed clown by
ears, making it nearly impos-
siblc to remove, and causes un
sightly conditions, Meng said
'We feel that if reasonable pre
cautions arc taken by the con
tractors lo clean the majority
of the mud off the wheels before
they enter city streets, this
problem can be eliminated,"
Mcng said. ' . .,
Ordinance No. 1483 provides
a penalty for littering city
streets in such a manner, but
Mcng indicated the city will car
ry out a campaign to develop
cooperation by the contractors
if possible, rather than to work
through the ordinance.

Hotel Restaurant
Reopened Today
The Rose Hotel Restaurant
was reopened Tuesday morning
with non-union help, as mem
bers of the Hotel and Restaur
ant Employes and Bartenders
Local 293 remained on strike
against the management of
the- restaurant and lounge.
Union Secretary Lois Weaver
told The News-Review she had
talked with manager Cliff
Thornton Monday, and that
while Thornton agreed to union
demands for payment of health
and welfare benefits, he wanted
to take out the "security clause"
in the contract which states that
all employes, after working in
a union house for 30 days, shall
become members of the union.
"This is a standard contract
clause, und we cannot make an
exception of him (Thornton),"
she said. "He wouldn't give in
and I wouldn't give in, so we're
at a stalemate."
Members of the striking un
ion arc continuing a two-member
picket line around the en
trances to the restaurant and
lounge. The hotel itself is not
being picketed.
Thornton last week voiced an
objection to forcing people to
join the union. "I do not be
lleve in forcing any person to
join the union in order to have
the right to work," he has stat
ed. If your Paper Has Not

MORNING GAGGING
O. What tauia morning
A. Mouth breathing probably
causes much of the morning
8 agger's troubles. Mouth
breathing during sleep can be
due to blockage of the nasal
passages because of infection,
allergies, or some physical de
rangement. Mouth breathing
tends lo dry the normally
moist, "slippery" throat tis
sues. Swallowing causes the
parched, "scraWny" surfaceJ
to rub together, thus stimulat
ing the gag reflex. Treatment,
as prescribed by a physician,
might-start with measures di
rected toward establishing
and maintaining normal nasal
breathing.

jaycee Poll Shows Sales,
Cigarette Taxes Favored
The Oregon Junior Chamber
of Commerce has concluded
from its state-wide tax legisla
tion poll that both a sales tax
and a cigarette tax can stand
the test of a referendum.
In the past, the two propos
als have been regularly reject
ed by voters.
Of the 395 completed question
naires, 44.81 per cent indicated
they were in favor of some in
crease in state funds.
Of all those answering, 65.36
per cent favored a sales tax,
73.85 per cent favored a cigar
ette tax. As with The News
Review's poll, very few were in
favor of increasing property
tax (1.01 per cent), increase in
income taxes (13.74 per cent)
or the net receipts tax proposed
by the House of Representa
lives (5.81 per cent).

per cent favored a sales tax
and 80.8 per cent favored a cig

against an increase, 54.31 per
cent favored a sales tax and
66.43 per cent a cigarette tax.
Also, as with The News-Review's
poll, the Jaycees found
many people conditioned their
approval of a sales or cigarette
tax on reduction or abolition of
income or property tax.
The Jaycee statisticians con
cluded that Oregonians are
skeptical of any tax increase.
But more than 50 per cent of
those responding to the poll ex
pressed a belief that additional
funds arc needed. Their support

For Aged
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Lbor
Secretary W. Willard Wirtz to
day appealed to Congress in
the name of Democracy and
humanity . for enactment of
President Kennedy's program
for Social Security-f 1 n n c e d
health care for the aged.
Wirtz testified before the
House Ways Means Commit
tee at the second day of hear
ings on the bill which is cer
tain not to be acted on this
year that the average addition
al weekly cost of the program
would be only 26 cents for each
worker,
Wirtz said the cost would be
shared by . workers and their
employers through increased
Social Security payments. This,
he said, would be a small price
to pay to provide minimum hos
pital and nursing home care for
persons over 65 ... the time
of life, he said, they can least
afford to get sick,
"The principles of democracy
and of humanity support and
demand passage of this legisla
tion," Wirtz told the congress
men. Wirtz was the second cabinet
member called to testify before
the House group in a new ad
ministration drive to win ap
proval of the proposal. Anthony

to bring the issue to a House
vote, The Senate rejected the
plan last year, 52 to 48. Even
so, President Kennedy has ex
pressed confidence that Con
gress will approve the program
next year.
Celebrezze told the House
group that private insurance
and limited public assistance
could not meet the health needs
of the country's a-ed. -
He said more than eight mil
lion oldsters had not health in

Reedsport's Garbage Problem
Back In Lap Of County Court
The long-pending question of
gar cage disposal policy was
dumped onto the Reedsport City
Council table at Monday night's
meeting and then tossed back
to the County Court.
The issue was raised by the
reading of a copy of a letter
from International Paper Co. to
Clarence Hahn, present garbage
franchise holder. The letter
from IP land agent, G. E. Twin
ing, announced that the lease
on the present dump site would
terminate Dec. 31 of this year.
After long discussion, the is
sue was tossed back to the
Douglas County Court by a mo
tion which instructed City At
torney William Jayne to re-open
negotiations with the county
over provisions of a land fill
site. Jayne, together with Clar
ence Hahn and Stan , Essel
strom, owner of the land fill
site area -under consideration,
are to meet with the county
court Wednesday in Roseburg.
The action of IP, owner of
the present garbage site since

timber tract and Forest Hills

tated considerable unofficial
discussion preliminary to the
council meeting. Members of
the county court met in unof
ficial deliberation with the city
council last week. Members of
the county court and county ,
land department have made
several site inspection trips dur
ing recent months, according to
Dawn Peseau, correspondent.
City's Interest Noted
Mayor Jack Unger stated
"our prime interest is that Mr.
Hahn has the franchise with the
city to take care of the gar
bage and furnish a dump site.
We want to help him in ob
taining a site although it is his
responsibility."
Charles L. (Chuck) Foster,
IP woodlands manager for the
area, acting as spokesman for
the company, queried the may
or as to whether the city's in
terest was "only to the extent
that Mr. Hahn have a dump
site, or, are you interested in
a public site." Councilman Gro
ver Woods argued that the city
should help the county establish
a public land fill site.
City Attorney Jayne said the
county's position is to require
that the city acquire the land
fill site. The county would main
tain and operate it. Councilman
Paul Hurlocker. and others ob
jected to the experimental na
ture of the county's land fill
site program and the uncertain
ty of maintenance policy. Coun
cilman Lin Swain criticized IP
for sending the letter to theU
city announcing the lease ter
mination. Swain later retracted
his criticism after Foster ex
plained the company's position
and stated that he was sure
IP would consider extending tho
lease if "action would be taken
in the interim."
Objections Presented
Objections to the present site
voiced by Foster and others in
cluded the proximity to the IP
sponsored Forest Hills subdivi
sion, the Lower ITmpqua Hos
pital and IP timber included in
the Hubbard purchase.
A motion by Woods following
his query as to the validity of
the Hahn franchise called for a
franchise on the basis of a
three per cent fee. It died for
a lack of a second.
