Tho Bulletin, LEAVING FOR EAST John trip to th Fort Rock area this pictured her with Bud Parks. Advanced study in east planned by John Kiesow Spcll lo The Bulletin FORT ROCK Lake County Extension Agent John Kiesow made his final visit to the Fort Rock Silver Lake area this past week prior to leaving for advanc ed study in the east. One of six In the nation to re ceive an educational grant be cause of outstanding leadership qualities Kiesow will combine use of this scholarship with his sab batical leave. A week of orienta tion in Chicago with the National Committee on boys and girls club work will precede travel to Hyattsville, Md., where the fam ily will reside. A native of Bend, Kiesow had a 10 year 4-H club record, includ ing campus work at Oregon State University. Before coming to Lakeview a year ago he worked only in the 4-H program. Adult work was added to his assign ment here. Oris Rudd, on leave to study for his master's degree the past year, will return to Lakeview this month from Logan, Utah where he was enrolled at Utah State College. Rudd did the initial work with the beef production testing program here. State regulatory action welcomed in report of SEC NEW YORK (UPI)-The final portion of the Securities and Ex change Commission market study report filed last week welcomed the work which state regulatory bodies have performed in the se curities industry. Also, according to the news di gest which the SEC issued, it had some suggestions for strengthen ing the hands of the stale bodies in some aspects of its patrolling of the industry. Most of the SEC report, now completed, has dealt with aspects of the industry on a nationwide scale, with the activities of the stock exchanges, the powers of the National Association of Secur ities Dealers, and with matters which transcend state boundaries. ' But the special study took care . to say, according to the digest. "there has not been and should not be federal pre-emption in the field of securities regulation." In . other words, the federal govern ment doesn't want the whole hog at all, but recognizes that slate bodies play an important part in Uie whole regulatory picture. State regulation, the report said, operates in two ways: To provide a means of handling cer tain essential local problems, and to supplement federal regulation. "The report." said the digest, "mokes special mention of the Important contributions of the states in establishing qualifica tions for broke-denlers and sales men and In formulating standards In connection with the levels and kinds of compensation which un derwriters of conventional and In vestment companies securities may charge." Continuing, it also pays tribute to the role In regulation plaved by the North American Securities Administrators, composed of state security officials from the United Slates, Canada and Mexico.

He it Traffic on St. Lawrence Seaway up, but is short of expectations By Caylord P. Godwin UPI Staff Writer WASHINGTON (UPI)-An agri culture Department study shows that traffic on the St. Lawrence Seaway has increased spectacu larly since 1958, but is still short of expectations. If current trends continue the volume on the new waterway may not reach its expected goal of 50 million tons cargo by 1968, the department said. The study, prepared by the de partment's Economic Research Service (ERS), shows the quanti ties ot agricultural and other com modities shipped on the seaway from 1958 a year before it was opened to large seagoing vessels to 1962. Traffic of all commodities on the seaway in 1958 totaled 11.8 million tons. During 1959 the en larged and improved seaway car ried 20.4 million tons, although the expected amount was 25 tons. The tonnage in 101)2 reached 25.6 million. If tins rate of increase does not increase, the goal of 50 million tons annually will not be achieved by 1968. A volume rang ing from 35 to 40 million tons by 1968 appears more likely. ERA said that although a last ing traffic pattern probably has not been established, completion of the seaway already has altered the movement of agricultural commodities, particularly U. S. grain for export. Grain shipments from Great Lakes ports directly to overseas destinations via the St. Lawrence River in 1958 totaled only about 100,000 tons. This was 4 per cent of all U. S. grain exported in that year. In 1962, U. S. over seas shipments from the Great Lakes ports were 5.8 million tons, 18 per cent of the expanded total of U. S. grain exports. Overseas grain shipments from Atlantic coast ports remained al most stable from 1958 to 1962, al though total grain exports rose 70 per cent. The proportion of grain shipped from Atlantic ports declined from 25 per cent in lSaB to 13 per cent in 1962. ERS said that export grain traffic at Gulf and Pacific ports so far has not been materially affected by the seaway. In fact, export grain Riot squads on alerf in West Berlin BERLIN (UPI) Riot squads stood at alert in West Berlin to day during wreath-laying cere monies marking the second anni versary of the hated Communist wall. Water cannon and barricades were held ready to disperse any riots which might threaten to erupt as they did last Aug. 13. The anniversary was ushered in by a mysterious heavy explos ion on the Communist side of the Teltow Canal during the night. Communist police carried out a search along the border. It was exactly two years ago that East German police and troops arrived at the Branden burg Gate and other city border crossing points and began erect ing barricades at 3 a.m. to stop the flow of refugees out of Uie Communist lone. By the time the city was awake, It was split by a concrete block and barbed-wire barrier which has become a svm- hol of the division between the free West and the Communist World. As a tribute to the 65 refugees killed climbing the wall to reach the West West Berliners today laid wreaths on monuments to their memory. Small processions were allowed to trudge solemnly to the borde tlvr' 1" Vjl- trWvS traffic at Gulf ports increased, due partially to reduced rail rates to the Gulf ports. Four groups of bulk commodi ties agricultural products, bi tuminous coal, iron ore, and pet roleum have accounted for 75 per cent of the total tonnage ship ped on the seaway since 1959. Agricultural tonnage has risen every year. ERS said maintenance of the present growth in volume of sea way traffic will depend on many factors. These include the capa city of the waterway, general business conditions, the relation of seaway shipping costs to costs on alternate routes the routing preferences of shippers and re ceivers, and the membership, po licies, and practices of the Euro pean Common Market. Firemen's union gathers but has no plan to ratify WASHINGTON (UPI) The railroad firemen's union gathered Us decision-m a k 1 n g committee here today but there was no pro posal for it to ratify, nor even a hint of a possible solution to the threatened nationwide rail strike. The 156 general chairmen of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen met aft er being called to Washington last week at the urgent request of La bor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz. At that time Wirtz said it was necessary they be on hand to give immediate approval to any pro posal produced by daily negotia tions under way at the Labor De partment. But Monday night Wirtz said there was no plan to put before the body, which has the power to make a binding agreement for the firemen's union. Still Disagree Wirtz said after a night nego tiating session the best he could report was that both sides were discussing new avenues toward possible solution of Uie four-year-old dispute. But he said "there are still significant issues on which there is disagreement." "There were different sugges-1 tions discussed today," Wirtz said i in describing Monday's talks, j "Progress? I'd say no." I More union and management '. discussions were set for today. Wirtz said these discussions have consisted of consideration of dif ferent approaches to settling Uie dispute Ulan have been tried in Uie past. The discussions were being con ducted against an Aug. 29 dead line, when the railroads plan to put into effect work rule changes eliminating more than 35.000 jobs. Such action would trigger a na tionwide strike by five unions. Two Main Isiuet Dropping of firemen on diesel engines and the size of train crews are Uie two main issues. The engineers and firemen's un ions are in one negotiating group working on the firemen's issue, and the conductors, brakemen and switchmen are in another group discussing Uie crew size is sue. Both sides have accepted a Wirti proposal that they discuss possible solutions in terms of a two- or three-year contract for both major issues. The House and Senate com merce committees were marking time waiting to see how Uie Wirtz-directed talks come out be fore pushing further with Presi dent Kennedy's proposed legisla tion to turn Uie dispute over to Uie Interstate Commerce Com mission for settlement. Revised faKufiing formula offered by Kennedy gets better reception than earlier proposal By Vincent J. Burke UPI Staff Writer WASHINGTON (UPI) - Presi dent Kennedy's new tax-cutting formula drew a much more en thusiastic response from congres sional Democrats today than Uie original plan he presented last January. The revised plan was ouUined Monday to Uie House Ways k Means Committee by Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon. It would take effect next Jan. 1, and provide net tax reductions of $10.6 billion for individuals and corporations with Uie relief staged over two years. Compared with Kennedy's orig inal $10.3 billion tax-cutting pro gram, Uie new plan would pro vide slighUy more total tax re lief and more would go to in dividuals and less to corpora tions. But its chief political attraction was that it was burdened with fewer of Uie tax-tightening pro visions that made Kennedy's orig inal plan so controversial. Reduces Rat Cuts To compensate for this revenue loss, the new plan would provide reductions averaging only 20 per cent in individual tax rates, com pared with 23.3 per cent in Uie original plan. The initial response of influ ential committee Democrats was so favorable that it seemed pos sible the committee might ap prove Uie new plan with only rel ative minor tailoring, If it de cided to vote for tax cuts of $10 billion or more. But that was a big "if." Another service from the 14 Shell dealers of Central Oregon 10 ways to beat the heat when you're on the road Whether you're planning a short trip to the heach, or a cross-country vacation in your car, the tips below can make your summer driving more enjoy able. Suggestion: tuck this page in your glove compartment for future reference. 1. Make sure your heater isn't "leaking" heat. If your car's heater valve is stuck open even slightly, it will let heat 'leak" into the car all summer long. Have your Shell dealer check the valve and make sure it's closed tight. 2. Keep your radiator clean. Debris in your radiator can cut cooling efficiency drastically. For a really complete cleaning job, let your Shell dealer use compressed air from his tire hose to blast debris out. 3. Kill windshield glare. Ever notice how much summer sunshine bounces into the windshield off a shiny dashboard shelf? There is a simple and inexpensive way to kill this glare. Just drape a dark cloth across the shelf. 4. Break up your trip. Summer heat drains your energy. Stop frequently to rest, stretch your legs and have a look at the scenery. You'll feel better when you get back on the road. And you'H probably drive more safely. 5. Increase idling speed occasionally when you're stuck in traffic on hot days. You'll turn the fan faster, speed up the flow of engine coolant and reduce tem peratures under the hood. This can help keep your car from overheating. 6. Have your oil level checked every time you stop for gasoline. A full crank case of oil helps cool your engine as it lubricates, so it's extra-important to keep your oil level up in the summertime. Sug gestion: Next time you need oil, try Shell X-100 Premium, the remarkable oil that fights 5 threats to engine life. 7. Slow down and save your tires. High speeds on sizzling roads wear tires out fast. At 80 miles an hour you get only one-fifth of normal tread wear. Moderate speeds are much easier on your tires, and your nerves. The magnitude of the tax re duction was Uie big issue still undecided as the committee sum moned Dillon for a second day of questioning behind closed doors. The committee was not expected to begin voting on the proposed rate cuts before Thurs day. The main features of Uie re vised plan: Individual tax rates would range from 14 to 70 per cent in stead of Uie present 20-91 per cent schedule originally recom mended by the administration. The lowest rate of 14 per cent would apply to the first $500 in taxable income of the single per son and Uie first $1,000 of tax able income of married persons with joint returns. The top rate of 70 per cent would apply to all taxable income in excess of $100, 000 for single persons ($200,000 trV marrla MinU fllinrt 4nin1ir) Taxes on corporation income in ovnAr. nf e AAA ...MiM duced from the present 52 per LOS ANGELES (UPI) Evange cent to 48 per cent. That com-! list Billy Graham returns to Uie pares with the 47 per cent rate j scene of his first major triumph which Uie administration initially proposed. The tax rate on Uie first $25,000 of corporate earnings would be lowered to 23 per cent from the present 30 per cent. The administration originally pro posed a 22 per cent levy. Limit Uie revenue-producing revisions in tax structure to less than one-third of the $3.3 billion originally advocated. So far as individuals are concerned, Uie re vised plan called for adoption of only two major structural changes which' have not already won committee approval. All of i ! i I : i the committee - voted changes were accepted by the administra-, tion. One of the two additional re visions it recommended would provide a new "minimum stan dard deduction" under which many families with low incomes would be able to claim deduc- tions in excess of the present 10 per cent standard. This would provide tax savings of $310 mil lion for such taxpayers. The other additional change would gain $370 million in new revenue by repealing Uie preference in tax rates on income from stock dividends in excess of $50 a year for single persons and $100 for married couples. Billy returning to scene of ; first triumph I this week when he opens a three week crusade bringing his "old time religion" to Uie masses. It was in 1949 Uie 44-year-old North Carolinan hit the big time following a crusade here. How ever, in 1949 his crusade was held in a tent pitched on a vacant lot and not Uie 106,000-seat Memorial Coliseum where he opens Thurs day. Since those tent meetings, Graham has carried his crusades across every continent and into many of the world's greatest cities. See tip 8 below to avoid the hot L'Sm&wo . taaIluA atjj 8. Don't pump the accelerator if your car won't start after a short stop. The engine is probably flooded. Pumping only makes it worse. Instead, wait a few minutes, press the accelerator fecial all the way to the floor and hold it there while you work the starter. note: You're not likely to have this prob lem if you keep Super Shell's Hot Weath er Blend in your tank.

So, don't deflate them on hot days or you may find them very low when they cool off. Do get your Shell dealer to check your tires carefully before you start a trip. Proper pressure will de crease chances of tire trouble and help your tires last longer. That's the real lowdown. You can count on yottr local Shell dealer for straight facts and honest work.

Germany (UPI) West Germany's formal decision to sign Uie nuclear test ban treaty today underscored the Bonn gov ernment's old links with the Unit ed States as opposed to its new Ues with Gaullisl France. The United States had urged Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's j government to accede to the ! 'reaty ban"inS nuclear, tests in me auuvapucie, in uuici opaic and under water. French Presi dent Charles de Gaulle has re jected the treaty and is known to have hoped West Germany also would. Monday night, government pcess chief Karl Guenther von Hase announced that the cabinet, following Adenauer's cue, had agreed to sign the treaty on the basis of assurances by the Unit ed States that the pact will not raise the international stature of the East German Communist regime. Adenauer had announced Bonn's intentions Saturday after meeting with Secretary of State Dean Rusk, who repeated the as surances Monday before the Sen ate Foreign Relations Committee. Blue River man crash victim SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (UPI) Clinton Harris, 55, Blue River, was killed when his car collided with a milk tanker truck on State Highway 126 about 15 miles east of here Monday afternoon. Keith Ferguson, 40, Redmond, the driver of the truck, was taken to a Springfield hospital with back injuries. weather trouble that spoiled this ning, power loss and stalls.
