French Assembly
Almost Certain To
Reject First Bid
fv. .
Former Premier
Again Tries Hand
Paris (U.R) Antoine Pinay,
a smalltown businessman ""who
served as premier for eight
months and 15 days and didn't
like it, said today he hoped to
form France's 21st postwar gov
ernment by Thursday. 1
Pinay, 63, agreed Sunday
night to accept President Rene
Coty's mandate. But when the
National Assembly voted him
out of office two days before
Christmas, 1952, he said, ,'
won't' go back before that lion's
den again."
May Reject Bid
Pinay began his drive for a
new cabinet with a touch of the
same brusquenees that wdn
Pierre Mendes-France the nick
name of "Mr. France" before
he was toppled from the premier
ship Saturday. But it was con
sidered almost certain the Na
tional Assembly would reject
Pinay's first bid for. office so it
could see who else would be of
fered the job. '
J Pinay, a " businessman who
married the boss' daughter and
became owner of a tannery, held
the job of premier in another
period of crisis. He tried for
political - stability- then - but - his
plan to "save the franc" tumbled
before the divided assembly.
Pinay, after being asked by
Coty to form a government, ac
cepted "despite a previous denial
earlier in the crisis. He talked to
the leader of his own party, the
National Center of Independents,
then shortly after midnight told
newsmen:, ' '
"I think it will be possible to
present a cabinet to the National
Assembly on Thursday at the
latest." .
Optimism Not Shared
' Few political observers shared
his optimism. The general out
look was bleak since France has
ro government at time of . the
Formosa crisis, it has no budget
to pay its bill and it has no
ministers to deal with new
troubles at home and abroad
German rearmament, nationalist
resurgence in North Africa and
a threatened political break
down in .Indochina. ;'.
i. Pinay's first act was to sum
mon to Paris . the three .top
French leaders in North Africa
end to put off the departure of
new Algerian Governor-General
Jacques Soustelle. Mendes
France fell in a vote of confi
dence on North African policies.
Portland School
fore Investigated v
Portland (U.R) Firemen to
day roped off a section of the
new Marcus Whitman" school
here to probe a mysterious fire
near' the school auditorium early
this morning. .
Fire Chief M. N. Knapp said
the investigation would be con
ducted by the state-arson squad.
He said the fire occurred some
10 minutes after the district's
two fire wagons had been dis
patched to a truck fire some 10
blocks away.
The chief said it was possible
the truck fire was started as a
diversion. He said he thought
both fres were started by an
arsonist. '
County police said damage at
the school was between $300
and $400.

Modest Income
Hit Hardest by
State Tax
Salem (U,R) The tax pro
gram advanced by the State
Democratic Legislative Policy
committee would hit the man of
modest income and benefit the
man who makes $100,000 a year,
Sen. John P. Hounsel (R-Hood
River), said today.
And he produced figures from
the State Tax commission which
he said proved his point.
Hounsel has advocated the
proposal of Gov. Paul L. Pat
terson that $30,000,000 a bien
nium toward an anticipated def
icit of $45,000,000 be raised by
eliminating the federal income
tax offest from the state income
tax.
Surtax Propoied,
The Democratic proposal is
to raise the same amount by a
30 per cent surtax on state in'
come taxes.
But Hounsel claimed it would
take a 42 per cent surtax to
achieve the results desired.
Hounsel said the budget that
had been presented to the legis
lature by the governor through
his budget division was tight and
realistic.
He said there was very little
fat that could be removed from
the budget without cutting deep
ly into things the people them
selves had voted for like ba
sic school support. So here's the
way, dollar-wise, the net effect
could be if the Legislature ad
opts the governor's program or
takes on the Democratic propos
al. ' . ,
Comparison Given
Assume that a man and wife
have one dependent. 1 Here is
the comparison on net change:
With a salary of $3,000 a year,
without federal offset, a net in
crease of $3. With surtax, $4.89.
Income of $6000 a year, without
offset, $22. With surtax, $29.20.
With $8000 income, without off
set $42, with surtax $48.65. With
$10,000 income, without offset
$66, with surtax, $72.28. On
$20,000 income, without offset,
$197; with surtax $203.09. On
$30,000 income, without offset,
$349, with surtax $300.26.- On
Woman Hit by Truckr
Taken; to Hospital
Elsie Lillian Hohensee, mana
ger of the Greyhound Post
House, was taken to Community
hospital at about 11 a.m. today
after being struck by a truck
while crossing Bartlett st. near
Fifth st., according to city po
lice. . t
She was taken to the hospital
by Medf ord Ambulance service.
Attendants indicated that Mrs.
Hohensee would be released
from the hospital later today. .
Wayne Donovan Lemley,
route 1, box 3, Ashland, driver
of the pickup truck involved in
the accident, was cited by city
police on a charge of failure to
yield right of way to a pedes
trian. Officers said Lemley was
released after posting $10 bail.
Runaway Teen-Agers
Arrested in Kansas
Vancouver, Wash. (U.R)
Seven teen-agers who ran- away
from school here last week to
go to Los Angeles have been
arrested in Wakeeney, Kan., on
vagrancy charges.
The three girls and four boys,
aged 16 and 17, were last seen
in a 15-year-old car Wednesday
night. At first they were re
ported to have headed for Los
Angeles, but police later guess
ed they would be found on an
Oregon beach.
' Clark County, juvenile auth
orities, who were informed of
the arrests by the Trego County
District , Attorney in Kansas,
said the group had collected
about $60 from the Red Cross,
Salvation "Army and similar
groups during the trip East by

with surtax $445.23.
Figures Emphasized
Sen. Hounsel emphasized the
last two figures, to note that a
man with $100,000 income
would actually pay less dollar
wise net increase than a man
with $75,000 income.
The lion's share of the antici
pated increases in the budget
are in six classes: Basic school
support, $4,885,000; higher edu
cation $5,103,000; public wel
fare $5,215,000; institutions $1,
585,000; military $776,000, and
forestry $654,00.0.
. These were the only increases
of more than half a million dol
lars. Some of the other agencies
actually showed decreases in
budget demands so that the ov
erall net increase of all state
agencies besides those six would
total only $268,000.
Governor Given
Emergency Power
In House Measure
Salem (U.R) The Oregon
House today passed a bill giving
extraordinary emergency pow
ers to the governor. The measure
passed with only two dissenting
votes, f rom Reps. Walter Pear
son (D'-Portland) and Loran L.
Stewart (R-Cottage Grove)..
The bill would empower the
governor ' to declare an emer
gency .. when he deems a war
caused or natural disaster to be
imminent and in an emergency
he could seize personal property
in connection with the "protecr
tion of the civil population.
Bill Endorsed
The bill had the endorsement
of the "Association of State Gov
ernments, Rep. Lloyd Haynes (R
Grants Pass), one of . the spon
sors, said. --.
The house today also passed a.
bill that would bring under the
state basic school support act:
children living . under federal
jurisdiction in Oregon. It would
affect children now living on
the Tongue Point Naval Reserva
tion near Astoria and would
eventually - affect those on fed
eral posts at Klamath Falls and
Chemawa. , The Astoria school
district v would realize benefits
amounting ito $250,000 if the
bill 'is approved by the Senate
and signed by the governor.
Development Bill OK'd
A ' bill requiring the Oregon
Development Commission to ad
vertise the advantages of indus
trial locations in .the state was
passed with two nay votes. Pear
son, sponsor of the billM said it
would , simply make ..the publi
cizing of such advantages man

carried no appropriation for the
commission itself.. Fate of the
