Grant Bulletin Staff writer I The county budget board took another look last night at the ask- j ings for 19t"2-1963, warned that ', they have adopted a "get tough" policy, and agreed for the first time, that this may be the year to exceed the six per cent limita tion and submit the budget to the voters. Still hopeful that they can stay inside the six per cent limitation and avoid an election, the budget makers sharpened their pencils and made a few whacks on the suggested budgets of the Civil De fense director and the assessor, both of whom were present. A delegation from the Health De partment was asked to come back with more complete figures on anticipated receipts, and vol untarily to make budget cuts wherever possible before another hearing with the board. William C. James, Civil Defense director, submitted a budget of $7,275. which is the county's share of a SM.iXO budget. The board de cided that $5300 is Die top figure Civil Defense can e.ccl from the county, and asked James to re Vamp his askings. More Expensive Ctvd Defense, it became appar ent, is more expensive than the county's figures show, and will probably get more so if the pro gram is to ccniinue with state and federal support For Instance, the director's sal ary appears on the budget as $2. ,v. Actually, his salary is KHon. The $2500 is matched by federal funds, and the other $4i comes half from the City of Bend and half from matching money. The salary of the secretary docs not appear in the county's budg et at all. Her f.vxi salary is paid half by the Ciiiy and half by the federal government, in a round about but her check comes from Salem. It works something like this: The federal government makes a payment at the beginning of the nrnnric Ten Pages ID 2 3 e fiscal year to Civil Defense. This is kept in a separate account, and does not go into the general fund. The City pays Civil Defense $121. 86 a month for the salary. Civil Defense forwards this amount and a like amount from the fed eral account to the State, which in turn sends back the salary of the secretary, who is a Civil Serv ice employe. Doubles Amounts Federal matching money dou bles the amounts shown on the county's budget for all adminis trative expense. This includes the director's salary, travel, of fice supplies, office equipment and telephone. James also asked $1,000 for ra dio equipment and repair, $1,000 for training supplies. $300 for shel ter marking and stocking. $100 convention expense and $t50 for generators for radio stations KBND and KPRB. The item for generators was the first to go. The generators would permit the stations, both with Conelrad designations, to stay on the air in the event of power dis- Prospects good for both tans, skiing in area Both skiing and sun tan pros pects appear good this weekend at Bachelor Butte and Hoodoo Bowl areas bachelor Butte still boasts a 125 inch total snow depth, w ith a 26 degree temperature at 3 this morning.

Hoodoo Bowl boasts a total snow depth of 100 inches despite the fact that no new snow fell this week. BEN ruptions. The stations have a pub lic service obligation and should finance the generators them selves, it was decided. Assessor Robert E. Lyons sub mitted a budget of $67,365, an in crease of more than $10,000. which, if allowed, would just about take the entire six per cent increase permitted without an election for the entire budget Increase Asked The assessor asked for a sal' ary of $7,200, an increase from $5,600. He also asked for salary raises for two appraisers, two ma chine deputies and a draftsman. Two field appraisers, one new and one a replacement, were put in the budget at starting salaries of $5,040 apiece. An item of $4,000 appears for reappraisal. This is for the down payment on a $12,000 posting ma chine which is already ordered. The asking for office supplies raised from $3000 to $5500. This will barely pay for the paper work resulting from several land promotion developments in the area, the assessor said. One sub urban development alone consists of some 2500 lots. Cards, plates and other record materials cost 88 cents for each new customer w ho goes on the books. The askings of the two depart ment that were thoroughly re viewed last night Indicate, budget makers agreed, that the county will have to keep pace with prog ress by raising more money. And of course, this means collecting more taxes. The board decided to meet agiin next Thursday evening. And it can be expected that their ques tions will be aa sharp as their pencils. John Stenkamp was re-elected board chairman, and P r i d a y Holmes was named to continue as secretary. Also present were board member Robert Whittier and court members D. h. Pea hollow, Judge, and Fred Shepard j and George Baker, commission I era. CENTRAL OREGON'S Bend, Deschutes County, Oregon, Friday, April 20, 1962 Big tourist influx seen for NW area SEATTLE (UPI) This lovely city bubbled with the most ex citement since the 1897 Yukon Gold Rush today on the eve of a world fair expected to draw three times as many tourists as the Northwest usually sees in a year. To the casual eye, it appeared a miracle would be needed to bring about the fair's opening on time at noon Saturday. Carpenters were still sawing and pounding. Cement mixers were turning. Painters were splashing: electricians tripping over their cords; scoop shovels scooping. Natives Confidtnt But so confident were the na tives that all would be ready for a first day crowd anticipated at 90,000 that Mayor Gordon Clinton although a teetotaler decreed that the hour be marked as If it were New Year's Eve, with ring ing of bells and blowing of horns and whistles. Every World Fair has one fea ture that is always remembered. Seattle does not have a Sally Rand although it does have a Backstage USA where the cus tomers are given the illusion they have stumbled into a dress ing room where the showgirls are taking showers and changing co tumcs. But the single impression visi tors will take home is of the soar ing space needle, a 600-foot steel spire that looks like an Eiflel Tower with a bright orange disc atop. There, in a restaurant which revolves completely once an hour, the champagne was already icing. This fair may resemble the Gold Rush in more ways than one. It has minted its own gold plated coins' about the size of a silver dollar. They cost $1 apiece and can be kept as mementoes or spent as dollars not only here but throughout Washington state. Word got around just before fair opening of price gouging on some housing, although not that run by the Expo-Lodging coopera tive enterprise. One apartment owner upped the rent on airline stewardesses in their apartment from $175 to $700 a month. The city council moved as em phatically as President Kennedy did on slcel. It passed an ordi nance requiring renters to got li censes and made it clear that those who got out of line would lose them. The second biggest novelty in Seattle probably will be the mono rail. The rubber-tired coaches, capable of transporting 10.000 per sons an hour from downtown to the grounds, glide silently over the 1 and l oth mile overhead in 95 seconds. Lookout station Jo be replaced The OdeTI Butte lookout station, constructed just short of 30 years ago, is to be replaced this sum' mcr with a standard lookout building, 14 by 14 feet on a tower 20 feet high. Bids will be called laler in the season and the lookout will be built in the fall. Odell Butte, top of which is 7033 feet above sea level, is in the Crescent district of the Deschutes National Forest. The butte is a short distance northwest of the Willamette Highway and about four miles east of Crescent Lake. A road built in connection with a timber sale now reaches to within 0.9 of a mile from Odell Butte's timbered top. This road will be extended to the summit prior to the start of work on the lookout. Good Friday Pilgrims JERUSALEM (UPD Thousands of Easter pilgrims commemorated Good Friday in the Holy Land today hy following the footsteps of Jesus Christ on the final Jour ney to His crucifixion on Mount Calvary. Msgr. Albert Gorl. Ijtin patri arch in the Holy City, will be robed in black for the solemn occasion and will clhrate the Mass of the Pre-Sanctified on Calvary. This will be followed by the way of the cross procession, which will begin at Antonia, where th of Worlds F B DAILY NEWSPAPER rmy drops oberts after talk to DAR WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen. Strom Thurmond, D-S.C, said to day that a controversial speech made by a one-time aide to for mer Mai. Gen. Edwin A. Walker is a proper subject for Army in vestigation. Thurmond, prime mover in the Senate hearings on alleged mili tary muzzling, withheld final judg ment on the remarks by Maj. Arch E. Roberts, who accused the mayor of Los Angeles of hav ing a Communist background. Roberts was suspended by the Army after he made his off-the- cuff talk to the DAR convention here Thursday. Thurmond said: "If any mili tary officer violates Instruction or makes improper or unsubstanti ated comments on any subjectr Darticularlv about Individuals then lie must bswer , to hi su periors. ' ' He expressed doubt the Senate investigators will want to look In to the incident "unless it appears that the news reports on Maj. Roberts are in substantial error." Walk out threat made by Russia GENEVA (UPD-Russia threat ened today to walk out of the 17 nation disarmament, conference because the United States refused to postpone its nuclear testing for the duration of these talks. Tie American statement and Soviet threat came in an unusual Good Friday meeting of the con ference forced by the Soviet Un ion, which kept filibustering in a last-ditch effort' to block renewed American nuclear testing in the atmosphere, scheduled to start next week. At the end of more than throe hours of wrangling, the confer ence adjourned until Tuesday morning, with East and West ap parently agreed to accept a neu tral proposal for breaking the nu clear test stalemate as one, but not as the exclusive, basis for further negotiations. But Soviet Deputy Foreign Min ister Valerian Zorin still refused to accept the Western point of view that compulsory on-site in spection of a suspected violator by an international organization must be part of a nuclear test ban treaty. (At the same lime the Soviet Union rejected a plea that it ac cept a test ban in a note delivered in Moscow today, Japanese Pre mier Hayato Ikeda appealed to Premier Nikita Khrushchev to agree to a nuclear test ban with international controls. But Mos cow reports said Soviet officials threw cold water on the appeal immediately). follow His trial of Jesus was held. The pro cession of mourners will wend their way through the 11 stations of the cross. At each station, there will b a pause while the significance of the spot Is ex plained to the pilgrims. The final station ceremony will take place at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. In the evening, Ih burial of Christ ceremony will lake place with sermons preached In Greek, Italian, German. English, French, Spanish and Arabic. Traditional pilgrimages were tti T irxr UJLIjJCj The Army officer said in his speech that Mayor Sam Yorty of Los Angeles had a Communist background and that Assistant Secretary of Slate for African Af fairs G. Mcnnen Williams had "leftist leanings." His speech had not been cleared by the Pentagon. Army Secretary Elvis Stahr, re turning to Washington from a Far East trip, had no comment on the Roberts case but said any state ment questioning the loyalty of Williams was fantastic. Slahr said he would withhold comment until he has studied the case. On his arrival at (lie airport here, he apparently was briefed by Lt. Gen. Barksdale Hamlett, Army vice chief of staff. Thurmond, In a brief statement said all he knew of Roberts' re marks was what he had "read and heard in the news media.1 .. "If. these reports are correct that Major Roborts spoke in uni form without submitting his re marks for clearance and after having been informed to do so and if he questioned the loyalty of Mayor Yorty and Assistant Secre tary of State Williams, then I feci his actions are appropriate for in vestigation by lite Army," the Senator said. "I will await the Army's inves tigation report before passing any judgment on this incident, Thur mond said. LOS ANGELES (UPD- Mayor Sam Yorty of Los Angeles said Thursday night he thought Die Army acted properly in sus pending Maj. Arch Roberts, the former aide for retired Maj. Gen. Edwin A.

District weathermen took an- olhor look at their instruments this morning and prepared a pre- diclion that calls for a possible few showers over the Easter weekend. However, there will be clearing weather tonight and fair weather Saturday, the forecast adds. Temperatures are expected to range as high as 65 degrees over tlie inland plateau Saturday. Despite the prospect for show- fers. mild weathor is expected to continue through Sunday. Earlier forecasts of some gen eral rains over tlie weekend ap parently have been changed.

Dole, director of tlie Oregon Stale Department of Geology and Mineral Industries, reported here Thursday afternoon following a flight over old Mt. Newberry. Dole was accompanied by J. Pat Mctke, Bend, with Richard Bowcn of the state geology de partment as pilot. Tlie three men reported that Newberry in its winter garb, and with parastic cones on its high slopes still under snow, present ed a spectacular sight when view ed from the air. The flight was made in connec tion with an air study by Dole of an area considered for a geologic survey this coming summer. Massive tuff rings of the region, including Fort Rock, are being studied. The three men flew ovor the Lava Butte country, cruised south into the Fort Rock area, climbed high ovor Newberry Crater and returned via China Hat Dole said he was amazed by the volcanic scenery observed from the plane. He counted more than 30 cones higher than Lava Butte, and spotted lava flows gen erally unknown to the public. One of the finest cones viewed waj Mokst Butte, high on the north slope of Newberry Crater. This is a lava-broached cone. The big flow of lava could be traced under Its coat of snow. The trio circled old Mt New berry in the aerial study of the re gion which covers parts of Lake and Deschutes counties. i enters Mayo Clinic ONTARIO (UPD-Oregon Sen ata Minority Leader Anthony Yturri, R-Ontario, has entered the Mayo Clinic In Rochester.

Raoul Salan, chief of tlie . outlawed Secret Army Organiza tion and immediately flew him to France for trial that could result in a sentence of death. Salan once Franc 's most decorated army officer but more recently its Public Enemy No. 1 was seized by French security forces as they launched a giant drive to wipe out tlie terrorist OAS and seize its loaders. An official announcement said Salan, 63, was picked up in a building near the Algiers Univers ity tins morning. Accidental Capture Reliable reports said Salan was found when a strong security force cordoned off a building in tlie Rue des Fontaines in central Algiers to search for a clandes tine OAS radio transmitter. Arrested with Salan was his former aide de camp, a captain I named Ferrandi. I Salan went underground after the four-day uprising collapsed and stnee has led the OAS in its terror fight against Do Gsulle'l policy of giving Algeria its in dependence under Moslem rule.
