RYAN AP, Fsrelga New Analyst , The America British with drawal of offers' to help Egypt', finance her , ambitious Aswan; dam project indicates a bold shift in western policy toward the Arab world. It Is a severe blow to the leadership claims of Egypt's President Gamal Abdel Nasser. Washington and London have announced to Cairo: If you want to do business with the Commu nists fo ahead and do ,it It Is obvious that Nasser al ready has had serious second thoughts about permitting the Russians to aeod in floods of technicians and others te help Egypt with her Aswaa program. It is probable that his advisers, too, have warned him of the im plications of tying himteU and the country economically to the Soviet apron strings.

S. Senate. Business, they say, is determined to beat Morse and will put up plenty of money to do the job. There is a lot of truth ia that Morse is cordially hated and many persons in other states are willing to chip in to help finance his opponent's cam paign. But dont think Morse will be penniless. He has always been a generous spender, snd in his previous campaigns, business was a gener- ( out contributor to his campaign fund (Oregon business men picked up the tab for the Morse deficit in 1944). We note in the Sheridan Sun a news item from Willamina to the effect that a Morse campaign office for this congression al district is being set up in the old post of fice building there "with Don Mitchell, well ' known Democrat In charge." The item goes on to say: "Four secretaries are employed, with more expected to be added as the cam paign gets underway." If the state is to be covered with Morse campaign offices si fully manned as this, with the other costs of pro motion, literature, radio and television, Morse will require a sizable campaign fund. A lot ' of that is expected from labor's political ac tion committees. Locating the first district of fice in Willamina may indicate that the focus of the Morse drive will be for the labor vote, since Willamina is the center for woods work er unions. Republicans will have plenty of dough, but don't think for a minute that Morse is going to run a barefoot boy campaign. Wooing the Women Congressional Quarterly, which does statis tical work on performance of congressmen and studies the political scene, comes up with the prediction that more women than men will vote this year. . That will be the first time in the 36 years of woman suffrage that this has occurred, but the trend is clearly in that direction. mind campaign committees are being set up to woo the votes of the women, Each national committee has a woman's divis ion. Miss Bertha Adkins heads the GOP wom en's section and Mrs. Katie Lourhheim that of the Democrats. Yhen there are numerous side organisations designed to give an outlet for women in politics. Four years ago President Eisenhower was credited with getting the bulk of the women's vote, and that is expected to be repeated this year. Candidates, if they expect to win, cant stop with kissing the babies and wowing the men. They must woo the women, too. Senators Morse and Neubcrger accuse White House aides of doing some arm-twisting to get votes against the Morse bill for a federal power project in Hells Canyon. Welt what about Democratic arm-twisting? That National Chairman Paul Butler Morse bill a "must" for the Democrats. Sen. Lyndon Johnson and Speaker Sam Rayburn, put on their pressures to get the bills out of committees which seemed dis posed to bury them. Even Senator George, according to Drew Pearson, who seems to have a pipeline from the Morse office, tried fellow Democrats in support of We have no doubt that both battle used the customary polit ical methods of promise, threat wheedling, pressure to line up votes, and keep them lined up. . The only "yellow" that attaches to Ore gonians is their preference for the yellow mid-stripe on highways. The . ,Am .ini a nnrnPn to the assumed standard practice. White paint, though, doesnt last as long as the yellow. Since Oregonians are the best patrons of Oregon highways why not yield to tneir Britain and Baaed mt Europe's ladiistry salirM be la trouble.

"EFFECTED"- -OUCH Te the Editor: 1 differ with your editorial comment about Ingrid Bergman and her return to America te ap pear on a TV show. Yon say: "We ran think of no great seg ment of the population which will be materially interested or effected." I recall my days in the service that Ingfid was one of the favor ite actresses of a large portion of the servicemen, not in the uxual ,DiniiB (though she would have adequately qualified on that score, aim) but because she was regarded as an actress of unusu al ability. I don't happen to have a TV set and about the only pro gram m tar that I will make a real effort to see regularly is "Sergeant Bilko." However, whea Ingrid Bergman appears on Sul livan's TV show, I think I'll try to see at least 'a few of her ap pearancesalong with many eth er millions who will cerjainly be interested. . ' Now as to the ether part of your comment as to how many wiU be "effected." that will be somewhat difficult to say. How ever, I have no doubt that throughout the country the de- her actions. Many will be effected enough to denounce her and many to perhaps arise te her de- tense, or at least te point out that her errors, while more pub licised, were aa mare critical than is common amongst a fair portion of Hollywood's glamour girls. Actually, I think we make about the same kind of a mistake the Nazis did, and the Commu nists do, when we insist on too close a tie between talent and morals. It isn't very practical to do otherwise, -for unfortunately ' a large portion of the people with unusual talents seem to be rascals in some way or anoUirr. STEVE ANDERSON Sl'RPRISED To the Editor 1 am a little surprised your rebuttal to my recent letter re garding the Oregon tax mess is based upon the alibi of the Re publicans that the present tax law is the same as that proposed by the Democrats. This eicuse is inaccurate and demonstrates again the unwillingness of Re publicans in the legislature to accept responsibility,' and yet ask us te re-elect them to con tinue their control of the legis lature. Just to set the record straight. Ihe present Us law is similar to the Democrats plan in only one respect. That is tn the sur tax method. However, the surtax levied by the Republicans is 50 per cent greater, than what the Democrats proposed. In all other respects the two plans differ. The Republicans reduced per sonal exemption and dependency credits from Soe to $500. This reduction was opposed by the Democrats from the beginning as It automatically increased taxes above what was neces sary. The Democrats felt every-, one should share in the tax load and recemmeaded an increase In corporate excise taxes. The Renuhlicana refused to do n preferring to load the Individual as much as possible. These dis- similarities between the plans lull add up te makt a differ ence to Individual taxpayers, on an average, af about 120 on each 1100 of taxes paid I don't expect the Republicans to stop trying to avoid 'respon sibility for their unpopular tax handling, but I also don't expert the public to he fooled by their claim that "the Democrats did It." After all, who, but the Re publicans, have had the strong legislative majority all these years to enact or defeat any tax plan they chose? Guy Jonas' 2491 Trade St. BULLET PROOF VEST? Valve EOl'R CORNERS WATER DISTRICT To the Editor: : In the news item of July 1 about the Four Corners Water issue it was stated that a dis trict is needed "because increase in septic tanks and wells will eventually lower the water level and make con Lamination of watrr greater each year." How ever, the clay strata underlying the area prevents downward seepage and if a well is prop erly cased, it wil defy surface contamination. Any competent well driller will confirm this statement. In regard to "increased valua tion'' a prominent Salem invest ment house sought and received a lower valuation oa its proper ties. Homeowners are net inter- . ested in increasing their as sessed valuation and taxes, either. ' Almost every one' df the dis tricts in the Salem-Portland area is in some difficulty. The Port- ' land group was rationing water; the Capitol Highway district was rationing water; the Salem Heights and Liberty distorts must mote aad re-lay mLins and hydrants; the Amity district had plugged lines and was ra tioning water. The amall reduction In fire in surance rates in going from Class t to Class 7 would be more -than offset by the cost of hydrants and equipment. The water corporations are forever and their taxing powers ' are set by law. Many residents do not care to be burdened by extra taxes and regulations. David E. Chilles 415 S.

I dont believe so but It must happen every day when a motor- ist. driving down the road, hits a I think perhaps a check of the local veterinarian hospitals and a follow up newt story could help prevent some of this heart break that is se prevalent in our sub urban districts. We have lost sur second cocker spaniel in tws years, and it is awfully hard to explain to a weeping foor-yenr-old, who has Inst her pal and constant com panion of the past two years, why a man on his way tn work had only time to honk the horn and no time to apply the brakes until after the damage was done.

When I stopped in to pay my bill, later in the day, an exerted woman ran into the office at the hospital and ex c'aimrd that she had a dog out back that had beea hit by a car. I Imagine there was another story of heart broken kids at home waiting for the news. Is it the same news my four young sters received?

The 1957-S8 budget showed an expect ed surplus of $400,000,000, but that figure is uncertain because Con gress is changing the spending figures in many departments a billion extra for defense, nearly a billion less for foreign aid. If business keeps up so personal and business incomes are high tax receipts should continue to increase: So far. Congress and the ad ministration have resisted pres sures to reduce' taxes. Goodness knows, they are high enough, and a cut would be most 'elcome. But the administration clings to the idea of fiscal solvency and wants to use this surplus to whittle- down the national debt which still stands at around S275 billion. That will be delayed tribute to itiad government finance. Next year, if the country con tinues prosperous (perhaps more readily If H doesnt Congress wifl make a reduction in taxes.

Some sentiment has developed for a name like "Marion County Air Base." it was reported Friday by EHon H. Thompson, Salem Chamber of Commerce leader and chairman of the recently-formed Air Base committee. Saggerts Naming U.S. Rep. Walter Norblad wrote Thompson from Washington that he thought a better descriptive name should be proposed 'for the facility now generally identified by the Air Force as the Greater Port land Air Base. Norblad said correspondence reaching him also has referred to the Air Base in relation to French Prairie, St. Paul or Woodbura. Because of hi distance from Port land, wrote Norblad. "it should hardly carry the latter name." He offered to transmit to the A I r Force a name suggestion from the committee. Other T apart Eyed At the recent organiiation meet ing of the committee, members asked Marion County and the vari ous cities' officials to study local laws and regulatory powers that could be applied to exercise some control over type of housing that would develop near the base. Thomnnn said some research is being done on this problem, and""0' money m the conduct when preliminary reports are ready he probably will call a meeting of the committee. At that time, the matter of a name for the base will be takes up, he pre dicted.

Gov, Smith pointed out that the 1S55 Legislature, in addition to making rather extensive improve ments in the employes retirement system, provided for improvement bi state salaries by approving budgets that contained sufficient funds to provide for normal merit increases. He said the legislature also pro vided a fund of $2,774,000 for re adjustment of the compensation of state employes, increased salaries for most department heads, and at the aame time amended t h e state Civil Service law ts provide for a continuing salary survey pro gram. "These actions demonstrate a legislative intent to do everything possible to maintain equitable salaries for all state workers," Gov. Smith said. He noted that the state Department of Fiaance and Administration and the state Civil Service Commission are now conducting studies of salary bud gets and salary ranges. . Gov. Smith said he hoped that increases may be provided for classes of positions that are found not to be competitive on the cur rent labor market out of appropri ations that currently exist. "Any salary deficiencies that cannot be corrected as a result of these studies will be reflected in a salary report to be made to all niembers of the legislature ea Dec. I," the governor said.
