'Bad Accident'
Only Appears So
Motorists driving past the Des
chutes junction on U.S. highway
97 yesterday afternoon possibly
decided that a serious accident had
occurred.
A car had sideswiped into rocks
near the junction. Sacks of grain
were scattered on the ground.
There was evidence of the rapid
application of brakes.
But it was largely appearance.
A car operated by Barbara Rich
er!, Portland, was headed north
as a Deschutes Cooperative truck
signalled for a turn toward Des
chutes. Miss Ridiert applied her
brakes and her car turned com
pletely around and grazed road
side rocks.
The truck swerved sharply as a
result of the rapid approach of the
Portland car and several sacks of
wheat fell to the ground.
No one was Injured.
In the car driven by Miss Rich-
ert were her parents, Mr. and
Mi's. J. C. Richert, and her broth
er and sister.
Tax Cut Fight
Is Shaping Up
WASHINGTON (UP) A bruising
fight over tax cuts started shaping
up today as one of the biggest po
litical scraps looming for the 1956
election year.'
With Hie administration already
optimistic about a balanced budget
for the current fiscal yenr, there
is a widespread belief in Congress
that President Eisenhower will
submit a balanced budget and a
tax cut proposal to Congress in
January.
Even If he does not propose a
tax cut then, his budget for the
1957 fiscal year Is expected to
show enough black Ink to make
election year pressure for an in
come tax cutting bill almost irre
sistable.
Threw Possible tiroups
The evidence now suggests that
Congress will divide rougtity into
three groups In Its approach to tax
reduction:
1. A predominantly Democratic
bloc seeking tax relief for the low
tncome tax brackets, perhaps
along the line of the $20-for-evcry-
hodv tax cut approved by the
House this year.
2. A predominantly Republican
group, probably with administra
tion support, favoring an across
the-board tax cut which would
mean greater dollar saving but not
larger percentage savings for the
upper brackets.
3. The last - ditch budget-balnnc
ers, like Sen. Harry F. Byrd (D
Val, who want to be 100 per cent
sure that any tax reduction will
not throw the budget Into the red
again.

Britain Joins
U.S. in Bid
To End Strife
lly IHIN Al l) J, (iUNZAI.KS
t'nited l'rti,ii Staff CorrcNponnVnt
WASHINGTON (UP) Britain
joined the United Slates today in
a dramatic offer lo enforce peace
on the strife-torn Arab-Israel bor
der by guaranteeing each side
against attack by the other.
The bold proposal, designed to
head off a full-scale Middle East
war that intelligence reports hid
warned was in the making, was
advanced by Secretary of Stat"
John Foster Dulles last nijjht, with
the personal endorsement of Presi
dent Eisenhower.
It won prompt support from
Britain, and generally favorable
comment from United Nations of
ficials and key members of Con
gress. But there was no Immediate
response from Israel or the Arab
slates, whose acceptance would be
necessary to put the plan into
operation.
The urgency of the siiuation that
prompted Dulles' proposal was
underscored, however, by 'reports
of a new clash between Arab and
Isrueli forces along the blood-
soaked Gaza frontier.
Dulles, In a speech before the
council on foreign relations In New
York, outlined a three-point u.b.
offer to (1) help work out perma
nent boundaries between Israel
nd the Arab states; (21 pledge
U.S. military force lo "prevent or
thwart any effort by cither side to
alter by force the agreed Dor-
and (3) put up a "substan
tial" loan to help resettle Arab
refugees trom Israel.
Ho Invited other countries to
loin In the guarantees, under U.N.
sponsorship.
Britain took up the Invitation
after. cQUuuediluJ. .lhe...U n 1 1 e J
Slates for "constructive nnd useful
Initiative" in trying to halt Middla
East bloodshed.
The Foreign Office In London
said in a prepared statement:
'Her Majesty's government
agree with Uie united amies gov
ernment hi thinking that it should
be possible to reach a settlement
if these immlems by inreet or
indirect negotiations williout detri
ment to the vital Interests oi
either side."
Announcement of the U. .s.
pence offer n1 neen scneauieu
for public release next month,
authorities said, but the urgency
of the U. S. intelligence reports
from the Middle Knst caused a
top level decision to move the
time-tnhlc ahead to stall off fight
ing, If possible.
New 1nhe iteporn-u
F.ven as Dulles spoke in
York, new clashes between j
and Israeli forces were rcportcu
along the Gaza frontier where
Ugypllnns said lliey Kiuen u
lews who hnd crosseii me iru-e
line. The Israelis cnareen Hn
Egyptian force hud sneaked Into
Israel.
Diplomats agreed Dulles' tim
ing was perfect and U. N. Sec
retary Cencral Dag Hnmmnr
sckjuld voiced hope that the plan
-mild be Ihe "begi-nilre' of a gen
eral stabilization of conditions" In
the troubled Middle East.
Dulles said the United States
would be willing to join in f.-rmiil
treaty negotiation!! to "prevent or
thwart any effort by either aid J
to niter by force the boundaries
between Israel nnd its Arab
neighbors."
