Dag Delays to
Consult Nehru
UNITKD NATIONS, N. Y. (.fi
Informed sources reported Tues
day U.N. Secretary Genera! Dai!
Hammarskjold 'it arrival in Pe sp
ins will be delayed until after
Jan. 1 because he wants to talk
first with India's Prime Minister
Nehru.
Hammarskjold had been ex
pected to leave this weekend or
early next wecjf for Peiplng where
he will seek release of 11 Amer
ican aviators jailed by Red China
as spies.
However, Nehru will be in Ja
karta, Indonesia, next week fur a
conference of foreign ministers of
the Colombo powers. He will not
be available in New Delhi until
the first of the year.
Nehru had turned down a re
quest from Hammarskjold to send
an Indian diplomat in Hammask-
jold's party, it was reported, but
the Indian prime minister is will
ing to talk at length with Ham
marskjold about the situation.
U.S. Chamber
For Cut Costs
WASHINGTON (UP) The
president of the U. S. Chamber
of Commerce has advocated that
government spending be slashed
by one-fourth.
President Clem D. Johnston
said he has been around govern
ment agencies for "a good many
years" and knows of none that
"couldn t do an adequate job on
25 per cent less expenditure than
they are now making."
Johnston, participating in a ra
dio panel discussion on the na
tional economy, said reduced
spending would mean lower tax
es. He said even the Defense De
partment could stand some cut
ting in appropriations but-"without
any essential impairment of
our defence effort."
He cited as a typical example
of "fat" the needless spending of
45 million dollars a month now
being paid in extra veterans ben
efits under the Korean GI bill
of rights.
The government is expected to
put veterans' benefits on a peace
time basis soon to reduce such
payments. Youths entering the
army now can still get, on dis
charge, benefits originally intend
ed only for those who served
during war time.

Income Taxes
Descend Over
$2 Million
Income (ax collr-rtlnn for the
first five month of the lf4-55
fiscal year ending November
30, were more than $2 million
below collections for a similar
period in the 1053-54 fiscal
year, the State Tax Commission
announcrd Tuesday.
The total for the five months
was $18,435,324.12 as compared
with $20,368,996.72. Of the
total collections 13,532,122.24
were personal income tax pay
ments and $1,903,201.29 cor
porate excise tax collections.
In the same five months of
the previous fiscal year $20.
368,996.72 was collected in all
income taxes, of which $14,464,
023 was in personal taxes and
$5,904,201.
The drop In corporate In
come taxes was attributed par
tially to the closure of most of
the lumber industry in Oregon
for a number of months last
summer when the lumber
strike was In progress.
This view was confirmed by
the fact that there were only
10 less corporate income tax
returns filed in the five months,
the figure in the last five
months being 1,847 returns
against 1,857 returns in the five
months of the 1953-54 fiscal
year.
