Russia, faced with the certain
ty of German rearmament, has
made two important conces
sions in the
Austrian treaty
negoti a t i o n s
now being con
ducted in Vi
enna. The Soviet
government
started by pur
suing a tough
line. It tried to
word the trea
ty so Austria

really independent.
It tried to include an article
that would permit it to get hold
of the Iron Curtain refugees now
being sheltered in Austria.
As the result, the negotiations
which started off so smoothly
on Monday ran into some snags.
Russia Drops Demands
Nevertheless, Allied diplo
matic authorities insisted all
along that the Kremlin seemed
ready at last to sign the treaty
restoring to Austria the sov
ereignty which it lost when
Nazi Germany seized it in 1933.
Their optimism now seems
justified, for the. Soviet delega
tion has announced that it is
ready to drop two unacceptable
demands.

Iron Curtain refugees. The other
was that Austrian armed forces
be rigidly restricted in size.
It is reported that Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles
hopes the treaty may be signed
in Vienna around the middle of
this month.
As has been pointed out, if
Russia does agree to an accepta
ble treaty, it will be because of
its acute anxiety over the pros
pect of West German rearma
ment. V
Germans would be told that
they, too, could have a treaty
and get foreign occupation troops
out of their country if they
would refuse to rearm.
This appeal is strong. In the
Vienna negotiations, the United
States, British and French dele
gates must not only oppose the
greediness of the Rusians. They
must guard against over-eagerness
by the Austrians themselves
to give the Russians concessions
in order to get rid of the destined
Red Army!
One snag in the Vienna nego
tiations concerns about 36,000
refugees from behind the Iron
Curtain who are now in Austria.
They include Russians, Poles,
Czechoslovaks, Hungarians and
Roumanians.
These people have escaped
from Iron Curtain territory at
risk of their lives. They are the
fortunate one. Thousands of oth
ers have been shot while trying
to cross the border or have been
killed by land mines planted
along it. -
Russia is trying to word the
treaty so it could get all these
people into its grip, to be tor
tured, enslaved or murdered.
A second snag concerns the
size ' of the Austrian armed
forces. Russia wants to limit the
Austrian army to 53,000 men,
and the air force to 5,000 men
with 90 planes.
Rassia ialso, however, wants
Austria torbe completely neutral.
An army of 53,000 is hardly
large enough to permit Austria
to attempt to defend its neutral
ity. Further, this restriction
would limit Austria's sovereignty.
Murder.Complainis
Filed in Portland
Portland (U.R) First de
gree murder complaints were
signed by detectives late yester
day against Joe Hayou, 31, and
Leo Brown, 34, in connection
with the death of John Hall
Goodwin, 47, who police said
was kicked to death in a hotel
room here.
Police said Hayou and Brown
each claimed the other was re-
snonsible. Officers said a clear
picture of what happened was
still lacking. There was evidence
of drinking, police said.
Hayou has a police record card
under the name of Joseph Hill
but nolice . said his Army dis

Taxpayers To Feel
Methods Used To
Balance Budget
. Salem (U.R) The second
longest legislative session in Ore
gon's history ended in a shout at
7:10 last night and left the legal
brains to incorporate into the
state's code of laws some major
changes in policy and adminis
tration. Principal accomplishment of
the 115-day session was the fis
cal program that enabled the
lawmakers to go home with the
state's books in balance. The
method will become obvious to
Oregon taxpayers next , April 15
when they pay income taxes
based on a 45 per cent surtax on
top of present rates. Instead of
the $600 personal exemption,
they will et only " $500. They
will pay according to present
rates but the surtax was added
to bring in some $44,000,000 of
new revenue needed to meet a
budget for the next biennium of
more than $217,000,000.
A new feature of the income
tax law is the hardship clause
which says any single person
earning less than $1000 a year
or a man and wife earning (less
than $1500 will pay no taxes at
all.
For their money the taxpayers
will get a building program cost
ing nearly $15,000,000 for their
schools and institutions and will
suffer few restrictions of present
services.
Other Revenue Measures
Other new Income will come
from six companion .revenue
plans passed by the Legislature
provided they are not rejected
by the voters. They were: A
cigarette tax of three cents per
pack, increased withholding tax
from paychecks, increased taxes
on insurance premiums, higher
prices for liquor at state stores,
new taxes on utilities and real
estate firms, and a corporation
income tax.
In summary, these were some
of the major pieces of legisla
tion enacted by the 48th legis
lature:" Water resources A state
wide code governing the use of
ground water was created, to
gether with, a water resources
board that will have final say
how that vital resource will be
used and conserved.
Education A new four-year
liberal arts college was created
within the framework of the old
Portland extension center,
Known as Portland State Col
lege, the new institution will
take its place in the state system
of higher education, along with
the University of Oregon and
Oregon State College.
Mental Hospital OK'd ,
Institutions A new institu
tion to care for the state's men
tally ill was approved after a 26
year battle by Rep. F. H. Dam
Masch (R-Portland). The hospital
will be built within 20 miles of
Multnomah coumy courthouse
and the Legislature, in its clos
ing hours, adopted a resolution
recommending to the Board of
Control that it be named the F.
H. Dammasch hospital.
Administration Years of
study finally culminated in an
administrative procedures law
that will set up standards for
the conduct of hearings and re
views before state agencies.
Legislature Members voted
to send to the people the pro
position that legislatures be giv
en more money for their services
in Salem. The proposal would
increase legislative pay from
$600 to $1200 per year.
I Public Health A move to
establish a compulsory state
meat inspection system in Ore
gon got as far as a limited pilot
program to operate for the next
two years. After that, propon
ents hope to get legislative ap
proval for a full-scale system. A
law that would make it easier
for cities and counties to form
sanitary districts was designed
as a partial solution to the
growing problems of sewage dis
posal in fringe areas around Ore
gon's larger cities.
Libel Bill Passed
Labor Workers laid off the
job through no fault of their
own will receive a maximum of
$35 a week instead of the pres
ent $25 but it will be harder for
them to collect unless they arc
actively in the labor market and
not just casual workers.
Libel Radio and television
stations, newspapers and period
icals will have less trouble with
nuisance suits filed against them
for inadvertent libel. ', If .the
stations or publications carry a
retraction of innocent errors, in
jured parties will be able to sue
only for actual damages, not for
punitive damages.
Extcurlr The governor
would be given increased re
sponsibility through transfer
from the secretary of state the
control of the motor vehicle div
ision. That branch of the state's
business, including vehicle and
driver licensing and fuel taxes,
Sum Reserved for Two
State School Districts
Washington j(U.R) A sum of
$95,000 is being reserved for
school construction in two Ore
gon, districts, the Federal Office
of Education said today.
The largest item, $82,500, is
being reserved for Wasco county
school district No. 9, The Dalles,
while the remaining $12,500 is
assigned to Gold Beach school
district No. 3.
The two Oregon districts are
among - the first to get funds
under a law signed by President
Eisenhower only a few days ago.
Final approval of the funds will
be given after technical re
quirements have been met.
BURNS FATAL
Portland OJ.R) Mrs. Erat
almadge Taylor, 30, died in a
local .hospital Tuesday night
from burns - suffered ' about a
month ago when her clothing
caught fire after she set a bottle
of baby oil on a heat register. It
either ignited' or exploded.

All the major pieces of legis
lation will become effective 90
days after final adjournment or
Aug. 4. Most must still be sign
ed by the governor.
