saying that "fresh intelligence
showed the Russians were build
ing a naval base at Banes on the
northeastern tip of Cuba. He asked
Kennedy if such reports wee
true.
Sen. Hubert Humphrey, D-Minn.

calling them "simple, mischievous
nonsense, without any foundation
whatsoever." He said the GOP
leader was engaging in "monkey
business and shenanigans to
spread doubt and confusion when

Plan to repeal
green belt law
springs to life
SALEM (UPI) A plan to re
peal the green belt law and place
all agricultural property on a
tax-deferral basis sprang to life
Monday in the Senate Tax Com
mittee. During consideration of a
House-approved bill to grant tax
deferral to farms not now located
in green belt areas, Sen. Vernon
Cook, D-Gresham, proposed that
all farmers be given equal treat
ment through tax deferral.
He asked that the green belt
law now on the books be dropped.
The green belt law exempts farms
in zoned areas from paying high
er than agricultural tax rates un
til their property is converted to
non-agricultural use.
The deferral plan postpones, for
a period of five years, all taxes
in excess of the agricultural rate.
Deferred taxes would have to be
paid upon sale of the farm for
non-agricultural use.
Shortly after Cook proposed
switching all farms to the defer
ral basis, Sen. Walter Pearson,
D-Portland, failed in an effort to
get the bill tabled.
Cook asked that consideration
of his plan be held over until the
committee's next meeting.
The committee approved a tax
on charter boat1;, and tabled a
plan to grant property tax exemp
tions to labor temples.
