Effects of Freeways on Communities in Oregon Will Get Thorough Study
, :
University Group
To Conduct Survey
For Interim Body
Salem (U.B A thorough
study of theffect of freeways
on the communities they by-pass
will be made by the University
of Oregon School of Business
Administration under terms of a
contract approved yesterday by
the Legislati Highway Interim
committee."
Deai Victor P. Morse of the
school of administration and Dr.
Weslie Ballaine, director of the
school's BiJreau of Business re
search outline to the commit
tee a proposed plan of proced
ure in riteking such a study.
Sen. Warren McMinimee, Tilla-
mook, Chapman of the Interim
committee, and Sen. Charles W.
Bingner of La Grande stressed
that the study should be an in
dependent one, dominated by no
outside foice, including the In
terim committee. They likened
it to the rec&t study of highway
taxes made by the Stanford Re
search institute.
Tf& study will distinguish be
twe$i by-passes from which, the
communityfcan be seen and by
passes which are so far from
the community it cannot be ften.
An important phase of this sur
vey will be the problem of ac
cess. Included will be a gtudy of
types of business firm adversely
affected immediately upon open
ing of a by-pass and types of
business benefitted by by-passes.
The proposal placed before the
interim committee was to choose
four to six well-informed com
munity leaders in each town by
passed. These mpht include a city
official, a banker, a newspaper
publisher, chamber of commerce
president, and a realtor.
William Tugman, Reedsport,
publisher, told the Interim com
mittee of the study being made
by the State Park Advisory com
mittee of which he is chairman.
He said Oregon has "a magni
ficent system of state parks. I
doubt if any state in the union
has its equal, and it is in excel
lent condition. However, there
is always room for improvement,
and that is the task to which
we have been assigiied."
The advisory committee will
make its finding known to the
Interim committee, which is
charged, among other things,
with reporting on the state parks
system to the 1957 Legislature.
One of the problems'is a pau
city of state parks in eastern
Oregon, compared with the many
on the coast. There are 53 state
parks now on the Oregon coast.
Tugman said probably one rea
son was that several sites on
the coast were donated to the
state for parks because their
owners gave them to the state
before they knew their worth.
Tugman's committee of 10
members will meet in Port
land Oct. 15 to study the State
Highway department's advertis
ing program and C hold a hear
ing on state parks. One or two
other hearings will be,held else
where in Oregon before the ad
visory committee completes its
study on state parks. Tugman
. said "we hope to complete our
study by soring and we will
turn over the results to you

Truman Says Administration Secretly Trying To
Shift Tax Burden From Big Business To Individual
Mackinac Island, Mich. (U.R)
Former President Truman ac
cused the Eisenhower adminis
tration Monday night of secretly
trying to shift the burden of
taxes from big business to the
individual.
The former President, speak
ing at a "strategy" conference
of 800 Michigan Democrats, said
the administration was working
under cover for a national sales
tax which would "cut the in
come of government so the rich
will have to pay fewer taxes."
The former President said he
was able to balance the budget
twice while he was in office but
his methods varied from current
Republican attempts to do the
same.
"I got two tax raises , to bal
ance the budget and then went
out and licked the Republicans
in a general election," he said.
"The Republican idea of bal
ancing the budget is to cut the
income of government so the
rich will have to pay fewer
taxes.".
He also accused the adminis
tration of using "stealth and
secrecy in trying to undermine
TVA," and of "corruption, mis
conduct and misuse of power" to
promote the interests of "big
business and the privileged
few." .
After completing his speech,
the former President announced

Fine Extends Wishes for
Happiness To Schmidt, Una
Petaluma, Calif. (U.R) Al-
ford Fine, the young logger who
was left out in the cold when
Una Schmidt went back to her
airman husband, was quoted to
day as saying he wished them
"nothing but happiness."
"And that goes for all three of
them, for Una, for Danny, and
for Danny Jr.," Fine said in an
interview with the San Fran
cisco Call-Bulletin.
The newspaper said it reached
Fine in his auto trailer at an un
disclosed spot here, 40 miles
north of San Francisco.
"It's been mighty tough since
this thing broke," the 21-year-
old Fine said. "I'm planning to
go far away. I'll probably travel
all over the United States before
I can get over It."
Fine revealed that the last
time he saw Una was when she
left San Francisco Airport to
join Airman Daniel Schmidt at
Portland.
"I wished her well," Fine said.
"I still love her , but I'm not
going to do anything about try
ing to get her back."
Una claimed she married Fine

Sioux Falls, S. D. (U.R) Mrs.
J..M. Gibson's troubles had just
started when she was charged
in municipal court with follow
ing another motorist too closely.
She then had to go home and
face her husband, head of the
police traffic division.
a Chinese ' Communist prison
camp. She and her 2V&-year-old
son by Schmidt were living with
Fine in a trailer camp in the
High Sierra when Schmidt re
turned from the Far East.
Fine said he was "not bitter"
about Una going back to Schmidt
"but I certainly am broke up
about it. I don't want anyone to
feel sorry for me," he said. "It's
pretty tough, though. Pretty
tough." ,
He was vague about the de
tails of his marrige to Una, but
he said they were wed in Mexico
last September.
"Lawyers are taking care of
it," he said.
he would leave today for his
home in Independence, Mo., for
a rest. .
His speech here was the sec
ond of his pre-election year cam
paign "give 'em hell" speeches.
Mr. Truman launched his
speech with an attack on "special
interests" in the current administration.-
' . .
He said "we have seen many
examples in the past two end
one-half years of the govern
ment's subservience to special
interests. Those who fought the
New Deal and. the Fair Deal so
long and so stubbornly are now
reaping their reward."
He predicted the Democrats
would win the presidency in
1956 because "a party which
represents the privileged few
rather than the many cannot
long remain in power."
"I have full confidence, 'he
said, "that the people of the
country have enough wisdom to
find their way through the
smoke screen of propaganda
that is designed to fool them."
